Download or read book The Red Geranium Sisterhood written by Shelley M. Christian and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2021-04-27 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens to us does not have to define us. In The Red Geranium Sisterhood, women will find the inspiration to believe in and embrace their inherent worth by discovering and embracing the Creator’s radical love. Author Shelley M. Christian encourages women to discover their unique design and quit comparing themselves to others. Through her personal story, real-life accounts of others and the lens of Jesus’ esteem for women, Shelley gives readers the tools to rise above the injustices they have suffered and overcome bitterness, self-hatred and despair. Sharing her personal struggle with low self-worth, emotional hurdles and being bullied as a teen, Shelley uses techniques inspired from God’s Word to stop believing the lies, break free from negative influences and thrive. When women believe their own worth and celebrate the colors within each other, they will shake off the shame, reclaim their true identity and step up to the plate with courage. The goal of The Red Geranium Sisterhood is to inspire women to fully love and esteem themselves and then extend that same kindness to others until their surrounding culture is transformed into a sisterhood of friends. Instead of I and me, Shelley hopes we become a culture of us and we.

Download or read book Geranium written by Kasia Boddy and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2013-02-15 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They are sometimes called storksbills and originated in South Africa. They may be star-shaped or funnel-shaped, and they range in color from white, pink, and orange-red to fuchsia and deep purple. The geranium and its many species, much loved and also much loathed, have developed since the seventeenth century into one of the most popular garden plants. In this book, Kasia Boddy tells the story of geranium’s seemingly inexorable rise, unearthing the role it has played in everything from plant-hunting and commercial cultivation to alternative medicine, the philanthropic imagination, and changing styles in horticultural fashion. Boddy shows how geraniums became the latest fad for wealthy collectors and enterprising nurserymen after they were first collected by Dutch plant-hunters on the sandy flats near present-day Cape Town. She explains that the flower would not be rare for long—scarlet hybrids were soon found on every cottage windowsill and in every park bedding display, and the backlash against the innocent plant followed quickly on the heels of its ubiquity. Today, geraniums can be found throughout the world, grown as annuals in the regions too cold for them to regenerate. In addition to exploring the history of geraniums, Boddy reveals the plant’s other uses, including how they are cultivated and distilled for their scents of citrus, mint, pine, rose, and various spices to use in perfumes. With their edible leaves, they are also used to flavor desserts, cakes, jellies, and teas, and some people believe that certain species provide an effective treatment for a cough. Featuring over one hundred illustrations, Geranium shows how the plant is portrayed in painting, literature, film, and popular culture, and provides an intriguing example of the global industrialization of plant production.

Download or read book Fabric written by Victoria Finlay and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2022-06-07 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A magnificent work of original research that unravels history through textiles and cloth—how we make it, use it, and what it means to us. How is a handmade fabric helping save an ancient forest? Why is a famous fabric pattern from India best known by the name of a Scottish town? How is a Chinese dragon robe a diagram of the whole universe? What is the difference between how the Greek Fates and the Viking Norns used threads to tell our destiny? In Fabric, bestselling author Victoria Finlay spins us round the globe, weaving stories of our relationship with cloth and asking how and why people through the ages have made it, worn it, invented it, and made symbols out of it. And sometimes why they have fought for it. She beats the inner bark of trees into cloth in Papua New Guinea, fails to handspin cotton in Guatemala, visits tweed weavers at their homes in Harris, and has lessons in patchwork-making in Gee's Bend, Alabama - where in the 1930s, deprived of almost everything they owned, a community of women turned quilting into an art form. She began her research just after the deaths of both her parents —and entwined in the threads she found her personal story too. Fabric is not just a material history of our world, but Finlay's own journey through grief and recovery.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is nothing more intimidating than a full mind and an empty page. It is wonderful to notice things, to be aware, to ponder as you go about your day. The thoughts bubble over and fill every cranial crevice. There is a desperate need to deposit them somewhere. So in that desperation, Whispers Of His Movement was born. I like the fact that it was birthed in desperation, because that is what I am. I am desperate and in need of God's amazing grace. The Whispers Of His Movement, the seemingly silent, imperceptible, Sovereign moments that happen each day, the ones we often miss in our busyness and self-absorption. Journey with me, as He whispers. Gina Gallagher is a woman with a heart for God and all He has for her--and us. She shares with honesty and insight how God fits into real life and enriches every day. -Gayle Roper, www.widowsjourney.com The Lord graced me with the gift of fellowship with Gina Gallagher, many years ago. She is the Proverbs 31 woman serving our Lord today. Her tender love for the Lord and for others is a divine gift. While we live many states and miles apart, one day on the phone she shared about the Father's whispers in her daily life. 'Whispers of His Movement' was birthed in her heart then. I always knew she should write from her walk with the Lord, taking His teaching onto others. May your day be extra blessed to hear these whispers from Abba Father too.

Download or read book Red Geranium written by James Allen Young and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2019-11-27 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over a century, a Memorial Day tradition in the Mitchell-Young family included the placement of a red geranium at the graves of ancestors and sharing of heroic, if somewhat sanitized, family stories. Generations of treasured Mitchell-Young family letters were bundled in attics and basements, untouched for decades, and recently brought together in a collection of over 5,000 items. While letter-writing was an essential feature of commerce and family life on the American frontier, the craft largely disappeared by the end of the twentieth century, rendered obsolete by more ephemeral communication. In Red Geranium, a sampling of the letters offers a compelling multi-generation story that illuminates family mysteries and tragedies and provides deeper insight into the subsequent trajectory of the lives of family members and that of their descendants. In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, three pioneer families with deep American roots migrated west from Kentucky, Illinois, and Arkansas, and intersected in rural Sumner County, Kansas. By 1880, the region was blessed with a rich network of railroads, and there was heavy promotion of homesteading and speculation in the rich prairie farmland. The voluminous Mitchell-Young family letters lovingly describe the difficult journey to achievement of their dreams of educational opportunity, economic security, and respectability. Their letters, supplemented by family stories and memories, describe their immigration to Kansas in the first generation of statehood, college life at the University of Kansas after the turn of the century, the routines of middle class rural family life, and the triumphs and disappointments of Sumner county commercial and farm life. The correspondence touches upon a bank crisis, offers a first-hand account of the San Francisco earthquake and fire of 1906, and describes the devastation the Great Flood of 1927 on the Arkansas River. The letters recount the immediate threat to health and longevity of epidemic infectious disease, the stain of heavy alcohol consumption during Prohibition, and the xenophobia, racism, and cruelty of the Ku Klux Klan in the 1920s. With the collapse of the Kansas farm economy, followed by a family tragedy on Christmas Day of 1932--at the dawn of the Depression--the Mitchell-Young family of four teenage children was forced to face long odds with their creativity, work ethic, the leadership of a strong matriarch--and the timely assistance of neighbors, family, and government. The letters describe their slow recovery from bereavement, isolationism, and poverty and their later interaction with the most important historical events of the twentieth century, including the Great Depression, the New Deal, and World War II. With the diaspora resulting from the war years, the family broadened its horizons and interacted with national and international events and leaders. As the sibship matured, individual personalities, strengths, and weaknesses emerged from their intimate correspondence--characteristics that would shape their ultimate destiny. Red Geranium examines in depth the correspondence and lives of four siblings who took unique paths to recovery and their own version of the American dream. The reader is confronted with the reality that the trials of their individual journeys took a toll on their health and destiny--a hidden price that was not previously a part of the traditional heroic family narrative.
