Finding Strength in Weakness


Book Description

Chronic Fatigue Immune Deficiency Syndrome (CFIDS) is not the 'Yuppie flu.' It is a debilitating, incurable illness that hijacks the body's immune system and drains the life out of its victims, often leaving them incapacitated for years. While researchers around the globe explore the causes of treatments for CFIDS, the men, women and children who suffer with the illness grapple with questions like: -Will I ever be normal again? -Of what value am I now that I can't work or go to school anymore? -How will CFIDS affect my marriage and my family? How will CFIDS affect my ability even to consider marriage or having children? -How do I glorify God in the midst of a debilitating illness and pain? Lynn Vanderzalm and her teenage daughter, Alisa, have battled CFIDS for over seven years. In Finding Strength in Weakness, Vanderzalm shares her family's struggles and questions-along with those of 70 other men, women, and children-while offering direction, encouragement, and hope to the countless families who battle with the 'mystery illness of the nineties.'




I Shall Not Want


Book Description

The author wrote this book with the feeling that many people he pastored could quote the words "The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want," when in reality their lives were "wildernesses of want." In this day of turmoil, confusion, and urgency, the Christian needs to know the Lord as his Shepherd. Centering on the imagery of the shepherd's care for his sheep, Ketcham draws the themes of rest, refreshment, guidance, courage, restoration, comfort, supply, protection, mercy, and power into practical focus. Courage: "The sheep needs courage, not to fight the lion, but to trust the shepherd." Supply: "It is not so much a lot of 'things' which the dear Saviour provides for us, as it is Himself."

Grieving the Death of a Father


Book Description

Losing a father can be a complex and confusing transition. Whether a father was beloved or feared, the loss and grief is a process--one that sometimes begins before the physical loss has occurred. Drawing on his own experience of losing a father, as well as on the experiences of others, grief counselor and educator Harold Ivan Smith compassionately guides readers through their grief, from the process of dying through the acts of remembering and honoring a father after his death. This book provides a way forward. By shifting the grief process from something to rush through, Smith encourages readers to embrace their grief as a natural response to loss and to give themselves time to work through the sadness, ambiguous feelings, memories, and reality of living without a father. A father's death inevitably changes us. With gentle and wise words, Smith speaks to people who have gone through this loss and helps those yet to face it. This edition includes a new foreword from the author.
