Book excerpt: As we relate to people every day, one of the questions we ask frequently is, "How are you doing?" And the most common answer is most likely, "I'm fine." But what if, as we looked into people's faces, we paused long enough to explore what was really going on under the surface? So many people struggle with chronic pain and fatigue, but they know if they were to share with complete honesty, the face they'd show wouldn't always be the fine, happy face. The faces that people wear as they walk this daily battle are many. Days, weeks, months and sometimes years of ongoing, relentless symptoms assault their bodies, alter their minds, and sometimes make life feel like a chore. Kimberly shares her personal story of connecting her physical pain with her emotional and spiritual health. She explores how her daily living practices have changed through her journey of emotional healing from trauma and through discovering new ways God spoke into her pain, her limited beliefs and her self-care. She walks through her experiences, symptoms and the many pieces of healing and miracles she found along the way.In addition to Kimberly's experiences, she shares other women's stories to help bring light to the struggles, triumphs, failures, disappointments and hope as we lean into the Father for His care, His voice into our faith, and the future He holds.Her hope is that the vital connections she found along this road may help others who are in this same struggle!Kimberly is a Life Coach, author, speaker and lover of all things people.Her mission in life is to touch the lives of those she encounters with grace, love and compassion.

Book Synopsis Autobiography of a Face [Thirtieth Anniversary Edition] by : Lucy Grealy
Download or read book Autobiography of a Face [Thirtieth Anniversary Edition] written by Lucy Grealy and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2024-12-03 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ”So many memoirs make you feel that you’ve been sealed up inside a wall with a monomaniac. A really good one, like Autobiography of a Face, makes you feel there is more to ask and learn. You are not just seeing the writer; you are not trying to see yourself. You are seeing the world in a different way.”—Margo Jefferson Foreword by Suleika Jaouad, author of the New York Times bestseller Between Two Kingdoms A thirtieth-anniversary edition of Lucy Grealy’s celebrated memoir, a timeless exploration of identity, loneliness, the nature of beauty, and strength. Thirty years ago, Lucy Grealy’s Autobiography of a Face launched the young writer into the top echelons of contemporary literature, winning her both acclaim and fame. An incandescent tale of perseverance, humor, and deep introspection in the face of emotional and physical pain, her powerful memoir—as evocative and resonant today as it was in 1994—speaks to us across time. At age nine, Lucy Grealy was diagnosed with Ewing’s sarcoma, a potentially terminal cancer, undergoing years of chemotherapy that destroyed a third of her jawbone. When she eventually returned to school, she faced the cruel taunts of classmates. It took her twenty years of living with a distorted self-image and more than thirty years of reconstructive procedures before she began to come to terms with her appearance. This beautiful and timeless memoir is a tale of great suffering and remarkable strength told without sentimentality and with considerable wit. Grealy reflects on how cancer transformed her face and her life, and captures what it was like as a child and a young adult to be torn between wanting to be loved for who we are and desperately wishing to be perfect.

Book Synopsis Love in the Time of Impermanence by : Matthew McKay
Download or read book Love in the Time of Impermanence written by Matthew McKay and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2022-06-07 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: • Shows how the certainty of change and loss can support rather than diminish love • Shares practices and meditations to help love endure in the face of loss, disappointment, change, or any of the ways relationships and circumstances are altered by time • Explores how to cultivate gratitude for every expression of love we encounter, strengthen compassion for others, and recognize the power of love after life Collaborating with his late son, Jordan, psychologist Matthew McKay offers five ways to keep love alive in a world of impermanence. He explores how to see and know what we love, how to actively care for what we love, how to have compassion for the suffering of others, how to set the daily intention to act with love, and how to turn toward rather than away from the pain of impermanence. McKay shares practices and meditations to help love endure in the face of loss, disappointment, change, or any of the ways relationships and circumstances are altered by time. He examines what love is and is not, including how not to mistake yearning and neediness for love, sex for love, and attraction to beauty for love. He shows how to cultivate gratitude for every expression of love we encounter, learn to care for things we don’t like, and recognize the power of love after life--a love that reaches beyond death. He also provides concrete exercises for communicating with and channeling messages from loved ones who have crossed over. Ultimately, McKay shows that, by running from pain, we run from love. By avoiding pain, we lose the pathway to connection. Yet, by recognizing love in the heart of pain and loss, by knowing that change and impermanence are inevitable, we can navigate life with a compass pointing to love as true north, learning to love more deeply and making what we love more cherished.
Book Synopsis The Spirit Renews the Face of the Earth by : Amos Yong
Download or read book The Spirit Renews the Face of the Earth written by Amos Yong and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2009-04-01 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays was first presented at the 37th annual meeting of the Society for Pentecostal Studies, held jointly with the Wesleyan Theological Society at Duke University in March 2008, under the conference theme, "Signs, Sighs, and Significance: Pentecostal and Wesleyan Explorations of Science and Creation." Along with a companion volume of Wesleyan essays published also by Pickwick Publications, the twelve chapters here represent both Pentecostal reflections/responses to the science-religion discussion and Pentecostal contributions to the ongoing exchange by biblical studies specialists, historians, and theologians, among those trained in other disciplines. Together the essayists model an actual dialogue in which Pentecostal scholarly reflection is impacted by science-religion discourses on the one hand, while Pentecostals reach deep into their own tradition to explore how their pre-understandings and commitments might enable them to speak with their own voice into pre-existing conversations on the other hand. This volume thus represents one of the first-hopefully the first of many-in which Pentecostals register their perspectives on a major issue of our time. In a world dominated by science, and at a time when theologies of creation that encourage and require care for creation and the environment are proliferating, The Spirit Renews the Face of the Earth provides a set of Pentecostal perspectives on these important matters.

Download or read book Father Joe written by Tony Hendra and published by Random House. This book was released on 2004-05-18 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A key comic writer of the past three decades has created his most heartfelt and hard-hitting book. Father Joe is Tony Hendra’s inspiring true story of finding faith, friendship, and family through the decades-long influence of a surpassingly wise Benedictine monk named Father Joseph Warrillow. Like everything human, it started with sex. In 1955, fourteen-year-old Tony found himself entangled with a married Catholic woman. In Cold War England, where Catholicism was the subject of news stories and Graham Greene bestsellers, Tony was whisked off by the woman’s husband to see a priest and be saved. Yet what he found was a far cry from the priests he’d known at Catholic school, where boys were beaten with belts or set upon by dogs. Instead, he met Father Joe, a gentle, stammering, ungainly Benedictine who never used the words “wrong” or “guilt,” who believed that God was in everyone and that “the only sin was selfishness.” During the next forty years, as his life and career drastically ebbed and flowed, Tony discovered that his visits to Father Joe remained the one constant in his life—the relationship that, in the most serious sense, saved it. From the fifties and his adolescent desire to join an abbey himself; to the sixties, when attending Cambridge and seeing the satire of Beyond the Fringe convinced him to change the world with laughter, not prayer; to the seventies and successful stints as an original editor of National Lampoon and a writer of Lemmings, the off-Broadway smash that introduced John Belushi and Chevy Chase; to professional disaster after co-creating the legendary English series Spitting Image; from drinking to drugs, from a failed first marriage to a successful second and the miracle of parenthood—the years only deepened Tony’s need for the wisdom of his other and more real father, creating a bond that could not be broken, even by death. A startling departure for this acclaimed satirist, Father Joe is a sincere account of how Tony Hendra learned to love. It’s the story of a whole generation looking for a way back from mockery and irony, looking for its own Father Joe, and a testament to one of the most charismatic mentors in modern literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No Test Without a Testimony I would like to share some experiences that brought me closer than I had ever imagined to God. I would like to take this opportunity to show you how grief makes God clearer. Throughout this book I hope you share in the knowledge and experience that I gained from the collapse of the entirety of my world. In 2015 death knocked on my door once again. I felt so hopeless and despondent. it felt new. Like I had never lost anyone before even though I had. The beauty of it all is, l experienced Gods grace and mercy through it all. When David said, Goodness and mercy will follow me, he was right. In my struggle with grief, I learned to let go and allow the peace of God to take over my bleeding heart. Pain and sorrow were real, and no one could bear the weight of grief alone and survive. I couldnt carry my loss alone; l had to depend on God and his presence. I let him in my life, and it was like having a friend walking with me through a dark and dangerous tunnel. He carried me through a broken heart, through streams of tears and fear, and then through a safe haven of peace and joy. We walked together on the path to recovery while l talked with him and he talked back to me. I grew to trust him and became mature and able to love him through all the seasons of life. I know without a shadow of doubt that in my time of sorrow, he was there to comfort me and to lift my soul. I hope to comfort you as l share with you what has worked for me.

Book Synopsis Pope Francis and Interreligious Dialogue by : Harold Kasimow
Download or read book Pope Francis and Interreligious Dialogue written by Harold Kasimow and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-29 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book engages thinkers from different religious and humanist traditions in response to Pope Francis’s pronouncements on interreligious dialogue. The contributors write from the perspectives of Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Sikhism, Buddhism, and Humanism. Each author elaborates on how the pope’s openness to dialogue and invitation to practical collaboration on global concerns represents a significant achievement as the world faces an uncertain future. The theological tension within the Catholic double commitment to evangelization on the one hand, and dialogue on the other, remains unresolved for most writers, but this does not prevent them from praising the strong invitation to dialogue–especially with the focus on justice, peace, and ecological sustainability.

Book Synopsis Pain, Passion and Faith by : Joanna Cruickshank
Download or read book Pain, Passion and Faith written by Joanna Cruickshank and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2009-11-25 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pain, Passion and Faith: Revisiting the Place of Charles Wesley in Early Methodism is a significant study of the 18th-century poet and preacher Charles Wesley. Wesley was an influential figure in 18th-century English culture and society; he was co-founder of the Methodist revival movement and one of the most prolific hymn-writers in the English language. His hymns depict the Christian life as characterized by a range of intense emotions, from ecstatic joy to profound suffering. With this book, author Joanna Cruickshank examines the theme of suffering in Charles WesleyOs hymns, to help us understand how early Methodist men and women made sense of the physical, emotional and spiritual pains they experienced. Cruickshank uncovers an area of significant disagreement within the Methodist leadership and illuminates Methodist culture more broadly, shedding light on early Methodist responses to contemporary social issues like charity, slavery, and capital punishment.
