Stories of love, loss and longing lie buried under a thin and worn out sheet of hope in Kashmir. Every human heart breathes hope, every human soul pumps hope in and out of its heart. It is hope alone which gives to Kashmir and its people a reason for existence, every new sunrise, the warmth of a fireplace, the smell of its saffron fields. With hope indeed is bound up the legendary tale of the resilience of its people. This long story chronicles four distinct, inter-related yet somewhat contradictory tales of hope and shows how hope is not always an accompaniment of love, peace, and justice but can also be a function of agony, deprivation, anguish, and inter-generational seething rage.

That makes my life difficult. It also makes me dangerous. The Sudden Appearance of Hope is a riveting and heartbreaking exploration of identity and existence, about a forgotten girl whose story will stay with you forever.

Most churches today struggle to answer the same-sex relationship debate that is quickly transforming our culture, our kids, and our churches. As a result, Christians struggle to demonstrate love and grace to those with same-sex attraction. That means that more and more people who are looking for truth and a place where they belong are deciding that the church is either indifferent to their struggle or outright hostile to "people like them." There's a better way--the way of hope. With deep understanding born from her own painful experiences, Melissa Fisher shows that somewhere between the extremes of condemning and condoning is compassion. In this book, she aims to equip the church to make a positive difference in the lives of those hurting from relational or sexual brokenness. Perfect for pastors, parents, siblings, and friends of the ten million people in America who identify as LGBTQ, who long to love them well.

A Hope-Line IF Suicide Runs Through the Mind Book of Poems, builds a bridge for people who experience anxiety, and suicidal thoughts. Depression has no respect of person, place or things, and can affect any race, age, social class, and/or sexual orientation. Signs and behaviors are often missed, therefore, it's extremely important to lend an ear, and listen for silent cries. This poetry book aims to go out to the deep-end, letting our love-ones know that we are all in the same boat, and if, truth be told, several others have experienced those same thoughts. Transparency and communication are key when building trust, therefore, these poems are prescribed by a poet who truly cares. It's not about me, myself, and I, it's about us, we, and our togetherness to make a difference.

“This book comes at just the right moment. It is NOT too late if we get together and take action, NOW.” —Jane Goodall Fears about climate change are fueling an epidemic of despair across the world: adults worry about their children’s future; thirty-somethings question whether they should have kids or not; and many young people honestly believe they have no future at all. In the face of extreme eco-anxiety, scholar and award-winning author Elin Kelsey argues that our hopelessness—while an understandable reaction—is hampering our ability to address the very real problems we face. Kelsey offers a powerful solution: hope itself. Hope Matters boldly breaks through the narrative of doom and gloom to show why evidence-based hope, not fear, is our most powerful tool for change. Kelsey shares real-life examples of positive climate news that reveal the power of our mindsets to shape reality, the resilience of nature, and the transformative possibilities of individual and collective action. And she demonstrates how we can build on positive trends to work toward a sustainable and just future, before it’s too late. Praise for Hope Matters “Whether you consider yourself a passionate ally of nature, a busy bystander, or anything in between, this book will uplift your spirits, helping you find hope in the face of climate crisis.” —Veronica Joyce Lin, North American Association for Environmental Education “30 Under 30” “A tonic in hard times.” —Claudia Dreyguis, author of Scientific Conversations: Interviews on Science from the New York Times “Beautifully written and an effective antidote against apathy and inaction.” —Christof Mauch, Director, Rachel Carson Center for the Environment and Society Published in Partnership with the David Suzuki Institute.
