Book Description

Kali Wallace is spellbound by the breathtaking land that spreads out before her -- and by a proud Blackfeet brave who calls it home. Though she never plans to marry, dedicating her life instead to her career as a photographer, she cannot still the rapid pounding of her heart when Soaring Eagle is near. And when the handsome warrior enters her dream -- one more passionate and intense than any she has ever experienced -- Kali awakens to find that her world has been changed forever. Soaring Eagle trusts no white man -- or woman -- and was hoping the beautiful stranger would leave the reservation once his tribe refused her request to photograph them. Now the spirits have spoken, wedding him in a powerful night vision to this stiff-willed enchantress with moonlight dancing off her golden-red hair, uniting them for all eternity. But their fiery, foretold love goes against all they each believe in -- and it is doomed to end in heartbreak...unless their two worlds can somehow become one.

Book Description

The Bible is filled with women who did great things and accomplished what seemed at times like insurmountable tasks. There’s Deborah a great leader, Esther a queen, Naomi a widow, Dinah a curious girl, Ruth a loyal woman, and so many more. Where do you fit in? Are you a wife, mother, ministry leader, employer, employee, or caregiver? Whatever you are called to do, remember to allow God to lead your life. Just like back then, the demands of this life can sometimes seem overwhelming. We must find our refuge in God. Psalm 91:1 (KJV) says “He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.”

Book Description

From biblical times to today, humans have found meaning and significance in the actions and symbolism of birds. We admire their mystery and manners, their strength and fragility, their beauty and their ugliness—and perhaps compare these very characteristics to their own lives in the process. Though admired today, the birds of Scripture are largely unseen and underappreciated. From the well-known image of the dove to the birds that gorge on the flesh of the defeated “beast” in Revelation, birds play a dynamic part in Scripture. They bring bread to the prophets. They are food for the wanderers. As sacrifices, they are the currency of mercy. Highlighting 10 birds throughout Scripture, author Debbie Blue explores their significance in both familiar and unfamiliar biblical stories and illustrates how and why they have represented humanity across culture, Christian tradition, art, and contemporary psyche. With these (usually) minor characters at the forefront of human imaginations, poignant life lessons illuminate such qualities as desire and gratitude, power and vulnerability, insignificance and importance—even as readers gain a better understanding that God’s mysterious grace is sometimes most evident in His simplest of creatures.

Book Description

In The Spiritual Child, psychologist Lisa Miller presents the next big idea in psychology: the science and the power of spirituality. She explains the clear, scientific link between spirituality and health and shows that children who have a positive, active relationship to spirituality: * are 40% less likely to use and abuse substances * are 60% less likely to be depressed as teenagers * are 80% less likely to have dangerous or unprotected sex * have significantly more positive markers for thriving including an increased sense of meaning and purpose, and high levels of academic success. Combining cutting-edge research with broad anecdotal evidence from her work as a clinical psychologist to illustrate just how invaluable spirituality is to a child's mental and physical health, Miller translates these findings into practical advice for parents, giving them concrete ways to develop and encourage their children's—as well as their own—well-being. In this provocative, conversation-starting book, Dr. Miller presents us with a pioneering new way to think about parenting our modern youth.

Book Description

This book is the culmination of a 20-year project which synthesizes the work of renowned social philosopher and humanistic psychoanalyst neo-Freudian, Dr. Erich Fromm and the best of Aristotle's Golden-Means doctrine merged with Sigmund Freud's tripartite division of the human psyche - ego, id and superego. This dynamic merger dictates a spherical representation of infinite blends of character traits. Extreme (therefore evil) syndromes garishly emblazon the surface of the sphere; Aristotle's practical wisdom and moral virtues, Freud's genital character and Fromm's Productive Orientation electrifies the synergistic, creative center of the sphere. Friedrich Nietzsche's moral philosophy as well as Saint Thomas Aquinas provided excellent tests of our hypothesis. Fore more on the author, see the last section, "About the Author." "For humanistic ethics all evil strivings are directed against life and all good serves the preservation and unfolding of life" — Erich Fromm, Man For Himself, 1947 "Fromm's affinity with Thomas Aquinas and the Christian theologian Paul Tillich shows us humanism and organized religion need not be hostile to each other!" — John McAlister, Ethical Universe, 2008 "Love ever your neighbor as yourselves - but first be such as LOVE THEMSELVES." — Friedrich Nietzsche, Thus Spake Zarathustra, 1883

Book Description

In this consideration of religious and scientific beliefs, Keith Simpson offers a provocative challenge to Darwinian thinking through conversations with a close friend. "An important tool for parenting and college preparation. Having taught on all levels of academia, I am convinced that it takes great wisdom to take complex and sophisticated issues and present them in a way that the non-expert can comprehend and evaluate. Simpson has done a masterful job of synthesizing, exposing, and presenting-in an understandable and engaging way for our evaluation-the embedded philosophies of Darwinism that intertwine our cultural thinking." -David P. Ferreira, Ph.D. "Keith Simpson provides an enjoyable and highly personal account of how respectful and well-informed interactions with atheists can change hearts and minds for the better." -Casey Luskin, Discovery Institute
