After suffering years of anxiety and abuse, Jenny Wren-Patrick was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. And while learning about her condition helped to explain a lot of her confusion and mood swings, her consultant psychiatrist advised her to take another step forward and start to write down her life’s story. Mending Broken Lives is the result, and for Jenny, writing it has unlocked many memories both good and bad, helping her to deal with the things she had buried deep down. She has received counseling at various times but still maintains that writing it all down has been the most help, and hopefully it will help others too—whether you are another soul with bipolar disorder, a professional studying bipolar disorder, or someone who has a friend or relative with this disorder. With the right support and understanding, there is light at the end of this long black tunnel.

If you are tired of romance novels with unrealistically “perfect” protagonists, then this story of love triumphing over self-doubt is for you… Callie St. Claire is from an abusive household and is overweight and self-doubting. But with a good heart, God, and prayer, she escapes the prison she knows as Indianapolis, Indiana and heads to the quaint, Hallmark-esque, bayfront town of Edenton, North Carolina in hopes of finding herself and her place in the world. When Callie arrives in Edenton and gets to know some of the locals, she finds everything she never knew she wanted or needed. Colt Andrews is a local Edenton rancher who has not fully come to terms with his father’s death, the sudden departure of his mother, and the loss of his girlfriend to another man. He takes solace in running Redemption Ranch, a place where horses and people alike can find redemption from whatever ills life had thrown their way. When Colt meets Callie, he finds everything he never knew he wanted or needed. Colt eventually offers Callie a job and a cabin at Redemption Ranch, where she quickly bonds with a horse named Warrior over their similar pasts of being abused by people who were supposed to love them. As Callie and Colt spend more time together, electricity sparks between them. But they both have past hurts that cause insurmountable insecurities. Can they move beyond this to mend their broken roads and live together in the love God has for them, or will they instead continue keeping each other at arm’s length? Find out here, in Book 1 of the Edenton Bay Romance Series.

The gripping stories of ordinary Germans who lived through World War II, the Holocaust, and Cold War partition—but also recovery, reunification, and rehabilitation Broken Lives is a gripping account of ordinary Germans who came of age under Hitler and whose lives were scarred and sometimes destroyed by what they saw and did. Drawing on six dozen memoirs by Germans born in the 1920s, Konrad Jarausch chronicles the unforgettable stories of people who not only lived through the Third Reich, World War II, the Holocaust, and Cold War partition, but also participated in Germany's astonishing postwar recovery, reunification, and rehabilitation. Bringing together the voices of men and women, perpetrators and victims, Broken Lives offers new insights about persistent questions. Why did so many Germans support Hitler through years of wartime sacrifice and Nazi inhumanity? How did they finally distance themselves from the Nazi past and come to embrace human rights? The result is a powerful portrait of the experiences of average Germans who journeyed into, through, and out of the abyss of a dark century.

This book offers an empowering approach to working with people with an acquired brain injury (ABI) based upon the views and perspectives of people with ABI themselves. Drawing upon Christine Durham's own ABI experience and Paul Ramcharan’s engagement in disability research over a quarter of a century, this volume gives voice to 36 participants with ABI, as well as carers and other professionals from both urban and rural areas. This unique perspective provides a long-needed, empathic alternative to the deficit-based model of ABI that dominates medical literature and existing rehabilitation models. In Insight into Acquired Brain Injury, the authors use educational and learning principles together with Durham’s extensive archive of experiential data to offer a reframing of the nature and experience of ABI and relevant a set of practical, real-world tools for practitioners. These ready-to-adopt-and-adapt scripts, guided interviews, research checklists, thinking tools and other innovative techniques are designed to engage with people and colleagues about brain injury as a means of supporting them to feel and fare better. With compassion and first-hand awareness, Insight into Acquired Brain Injury provides a much-needed perspective that deepens current understanding and translates the complicated life-worlds of people living with ABI in order to motivate, empower and increase their participation.

Has someone placed so many restrictions and restraints upon you that you felt like you were living in a box of someone else’s making? When Paul wrote the Book of Galatians, he was imprisoned physically. His crime was refusing to worship the emperor. But Paul, a Christian and practicing believer who lived his faith, refused to worship someone other than God. In Breaking Out of Life’s Spiritual Prisons, author Keith D. Pisani explains Paul’s teachings in Galatians. It presents a balanced approach to spiritual freedoms. Geared toward use in small group Bible studies and in other study venues, it features break-out sessions that include study questions and practical exercises to help believers grow and live free in Jesus—outside of and apart from the religious comfort zones established by others. In addition to this book, Pisani has produced the companion Bible study for use in personal and group settings, Breaking Out of Life’s Spiritual Prisons: A Bible Study Guide.

Widely known today as the "Angel of the Battlefield," Clara Barton's personal life has always been shrouded in mystery. In Clara Barton, Professional Angel, Elizabeth Brown Pryor presents a biography of Barton that strips away the heroic exterior and reveals a complex and often trying woman. Based on the papers Clara Barton carefully saved over her lifetime, this biography is the first one to draw on these recorded thoughts. Besides her own voluminous correspondence, it reflects the letters and reminiscences of lovers, a grandniece who probed her aunt's venerable facade, and doctors who treated her nervous disorders. She emerges as a vividly human figure. Continually struggling to cope with her insecure family background and a society that offered much less than she had to give, she chose achievement as the vehicle for gaining the love and recognition that frequently eluded her during her long life. Not always altruistic, her accomplishments were nonetheless extraordinary. On the battlefields of the Civil War, in securing American participation in the International Red Cross, in promoting peacetime disaster relief, and in fighting for women's rights, Clara Barton made an unparalleled contribution to American social progress. Yet the true measure of her life must be made from this perspective: she dared to offend a society whose acceptance she treasured, and she put all of her energy into patching up the lives of those around her when her own was rent and frayed.

Our current world is chaotic. Violence, racism, immorality, identity confusion, self entitlement, and selfishness are more prevalent than ever before. Our Spiritual enemy, Satan, is camouflaging himself through demonic spirits of addiction, pornography, depression and suicide, trying to deceive and destroy God’s people and to hinder the Kingdom of God from progressing forward. The current condition of our world, should cause a Holy indignation to rise up on the inside of Christians. Provoking a fervent and passionate zeal, that brings change and lets Satan know that he can’t have our family, our marriage or our God given dreams. Christians can no longer sit on the sidelines of life, being politically correct, agreeing with the twisted morals, values and negative mindset of our society, that’s being proclaimed as truth. Queen Esther accepted and passionately pursued God’s purpose for her life. She held onto it like a piece of steak between the teeth of a bull dog’s mouth and didn’t let it go, until she completed it. It’s time for Christians to “put up or shut up!” We must stop chasing the idols and the things of this world that have no eternal significance and when death calls our name, it will not matter. Christians must become “Spiritual Gangsters” in the sense of pledging an allegiance and commitment to the covenant and personal relationship we have with God, through his Son, Jesus Christ. When Christians walk in the Spiritual authority Jesus Christ gave us, using our spiritual weapons of prayer, fasting, praise and intercession, Satan and his kingdom will be destroyed. Matthew 11:12, (KJV), States, And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.
