Book Description

Whether you have felt the sting of betrayal or the sting of guilt from betraying another, author and speaker Carol Kornacki understands. Her heart-wrenching personal testimony will resonate with all who have been hurt or betrayed. Kornacki offers a four-step recovery process that begins with admitting something is wrong, then proceeding to forgiveness, giving it to God in prayer, and not seeking revenge. She refers to betrayal as the ?Judas kiss, ? which can take many forms, such as adultery, lying, gossiping, sexual abuse, breaking down of confidence, letting someone down, and deserting someone in need. According to Kornacki the recovery process is the same for each. Through her journey and experiences, readers will learn how to let go of the hurt and begin to forgive.

Book Description

The Buddha’s seven years of wandering in search of enlightenment ended in frustration. So did the author’s thirty years of traversing golf courses. Neither found what they were looking for until they stopped searching outside and started looking within. The result for James Ragonnet was the kind of “second birthday” Eastern thinkers describe when “you wake up to everything happening around you.” Through delightful anecdotes and practical lessons, Ragonnet reveals the power of awareness, balance, and unity to banish the dissatisfaction and stagnation so many golfers experience. He shows how “all golf Buddhas — Bobby Jones, Jack Nicklaus, Annika Sorenstam, Tiger Woods — play with their outer and inner eyes wide open,” describes his twelfth-green OOGE (“out-of-golf-experience”), and offers readers simple truths that prompt flashes of understanding. These insights invite birdies, drop handicaps, and transform experience both on and off the course.

Book Description

"The Ram in a Thicket focuses on the interface between Christian Science and medicine, and the ethical issues therein. Other topics which have received less attention than needed in our church discussion include: the law and children, the role of free speech and secrecy (the "dumbing down" of teaching will be included in this chapter), the value of community, self-knowledge, religious self-regulation, listening to prophetic voices, reconciliation of differing points of view and dealing with controversy, Biblical literacy, perfectionism, and distinguishing between dogma and doctrine. Input for this book has come from church archives, various research and histories, numerous interviews, and the observations of many long-time Christian Scientists. The book is intended to provoke thought among church members and others with a connection to Christian Science. Its goal is not to establish any new set of doctrinal positions, but to encourage a continual revival of Spirit and a fresh look at our church practices"--
