In the Arms of Grace


Book Description

In the Arms of Grace is the powerful story of a modern woman warrior and her battle for physical, emotional and spiritual victory. As a Vietnamese and an American, she provides a link between the two nations through her life experiences. From her days as an orphan in Vietnam, when she sang and danced for American G.I.s, to her "ideal" life of having it all in the United States, LeChristine Hai constantly searched for love, security and belonging. Her "rags to riches" story shows the underside of the "American Dream." Enduring years of emotional and sexual abuse at the hands of her adoptive American father, LeChristine ultimately refuses to be a victim and transforms her life. She takes charge of her own life and becomes a successful business woman, only to discover that she still must confront the pain of abandonment in order to find true peace. When LeChristine Hai's soul search leads her to a reunion with her lost and found Vietnamese mother and sister, she comes full circle and learns how to heal the personal wars within. As she embraces her authentic self, she also opens her heart and life to reveal the healing power of love and courage.




I Tried Until I Almost Died


Book Description

Tired of trying to measure up? Trade your anxiety and frustration for rest and relaxation. Many of us believe that in order to please God, we have to be perfect. It’s an easy lie to buy into. In a culture that emphasizes accomplishment and ever-higher goals, we feel driven to do more, achieve more, be more. And we get caught up in the unforgiving treadmill of self-imposed rules, believing that we should, we need to, we must. The result? Anger, frustration, and anxiety that keep us far away from the life of peace that Jesus promised. For years, Sandra McCollom lived in this trap. Finally worn out from striving for perfection but constantly feeling like a failure, one day she prayed in desperation, begging God for help. God answered Sandra by setting her on a life-changing journey to discover the riches of His grace. In I Tried Until I Almost Died, Sandra shares how she left behind her burden of anxiety and fear and shows you how to experience for yourself the freedom of trusting solely in the perfecting power of God’s grace.

My Journey to Embrace God's Grace


Book Description

This is the story of one woman’s journey through life. This is my story. You are invited to travel this road with me as I relive hardship as well as all the joys life has to offer. This is an inspirational story. The intention of this book is to show you that, even in adversity, if you set your vision high enough you can overcome anything. “With God all things are possible.” As you read, you will see how I turned my misfortune into victory through relentless faith. This book was written to motivate and encourage. I sometimes find myself at the top of the mountain filled with joy and then in the depths of the valley filled with despair. The one constant is that God is on that mountain rejoicing with me and is also in the valley healing my wounds. When you start reading this book, you will see me as the author, but by the time you are finished you may see me as your friend. “No one has ever seen God, but if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is truly in our hearts” (1 John: 4–12).

Grace


Book Description

Benedictine monastic spirituality has emerged as an antidote to the spiritual and cultural challenges facing people of faith today. In this book, the author focuses specifically on GRACE, and the benevolence of God as it expresses itself in many different ways along our spiritual journey. What is a person likely to experience when beginning to give up him or herself conscientiously to the spiritual journey? In this beautiful guide, gradually, we come to realize that everything that happens in our lives is somehow the gift of our loving Father. Every journey is ultimately individual.

Carrying Grace to Santiago


Book Description

WHAT BEGAN AS AN ARTIST'S VACATION BECAME A PILGRIMAGE OF THE SPIRIT. Maureen Lauran planned to sketch her way along the Camino de Santiago, a medieval pilgrimage route across rugged northern Spain. On break from her duties as art teacher, she set out to walk the 500-mile trek to Santiago de Compostela, hoping for great vistas, delicious wines and crusty breads, and conviviality with other travelers. Drawing her way through quaint villages, beautiful cathedrals, along meandering rivers, and across ancient bridges she encountered all of those things . . . and something more. Before leaving home, almost as an after-thought, Maureen remembered that the ashes of her mother-Grace-needed a final resting place. Carrying Grace's ashes with her would bring up many unwanted memories. Along with those memories, however, her final tribute to a difficult woman led to a brilliant revelation. A journey of discovery, friendship, good humor . . . and forgiveness.
