Unshakable Hope: Building Our Lives on the Promises of God
by Max LucadoWhat is shaking in your world? Possibly your future, your faith, your family, or finances? It's a shaky world out there. In Unshakable Hope: Building Our Lives on the Promises of God, pastor and New York Times bestselling author Max Lucado offers encouraging guidance for overcoming sadness and despair, renewing a sense of purpose, and triumphantly facing the fears of the future.We’ve never been more educated and entertained. We have technological tools our parents could only dream of, and we are saturated with information, amusement, and recreation. Yet more than ever, we are starving for hope. School shootings are all too familiar. Depression is on the rise. And more people than ever are orchestrating their own deaths. In America alone, the suicide rate has increased 24 percent in fewer than twenty years. If a disease saw such a spike, it would be deemed an epidemic. People are dying from a lack of hope.After forty years of counseling and ministry, Max Lucado has learned that nothing lifts the desperate, weary heart like the promises of God. In a world full of despair, depression, anxiety, and instability, we do not need more opinions or hunches; we need the definitive declarations of our mighty and loving God. Unshakable Hope examines twelve of God’s promises that Max has turned to over the years to encourage himself and others. Each chapter explores one significant promise and reveals how it will equip you to:Overcome challenging circumstancesLive through sadness and renew hopeExperience lasting securityMake wise decisions What is your life built on—the circumstances of life or the promises of God? The answer to that question changes everything. For every problem in life, God has given you a promise. Join Max as he takes a closer look at Scripture’s unbreakable promises and shows you how to live with an unshakable hope.

Viva amando su vida: Acepte la aventura de ser dirigido por el Esp¿ritu Santo
by Joyce MeyerComo muchas personas, puede que le sea fácil expresar amor por su familia, su cónyuge, su iglesia, el Señor, o por cosas temporales, como una buena taza de café, su casa o una buena cena en su restaurante favorito. Sin embargo, quizás tenga que esforzarse de verdad por decir: "¡Amo mi vida!"Las rutinas y las responsabilidades pueden convertirse en una monotonía, que lo hagan sentirse amedrentado, en vez de desearlas con ansias. No obstante, usted puede convertirse en un ser optimista y maravillarse de las cosas que Dios puede hacer todos los días.Escrito por la autora número uno del New York Times, Joyce Meyer, este libro es la clave para cambiar su perspectiva, que le permite a su vez disfrutarse cada momento y cada área de la vida. Joyce explica cómo amar la vida completamente, a pesar de los obstáculos, ¡para que pueda experimentar el gozo y la plenitud que Dios tiene para usted!Los capítulos incluyen:Dios tiene un plan asombroso para usted,Niéguese a dejar que el temor determine su destino,Considere cada día como una oportunidad, y¡Sea la persona que Dios creó que fuera!La clave para amar su vida se encuentra en el amor de Dios por usted. Aprenda cómo Dios puede ayudarle a mantener una actitud alegre, haciendo que el amor y la bondad sean las prioridades principales, y que lo que usted regale se le devuelva con creces. Como explica Joyce, Dios ya le ha bendecido con lo que necesita para que VIVA AMANDO SU VIDA. Y este libro le mostrará cómo hacerlo.

Vivene nell'adesso in facili passi
by Alberto Favaro A. J. ParrQuesto libro contiene sette semplici lezioni ed esercizi di base che potete facilmente usare per aiutare a fermare la vostra “mente che chiacchiera” e cominciare a vivere l'Adesso, una pratica che può darvi la pace interiore e la gioia A PARTIRE DA OGGI! Qui imparerete i principi e i metodi base dietro all’antica pratica del Vivere l'Adesso, fondamenti dal valore inestimabile di tutti gli antichi insegnamenti spirituali mondiali, compresi quelli di Gesù, Buddha, Krishna, Lao Tzu, Kabir, e quelli più recenti di Eckhart Tolle, Krishnamurti, Dalai Lama, Ramana Maharshi, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, Alan Watts, e innumerevoli altri. Le sette lezioni e gli esercizi che troverete sono basate sulle seguenti antiche premesse: *La sofferenza e l’infelicità umana sono prodotte dalla nostra “mente che chiacchiera”, che senza sosta produce un dialogo interno o chiacchiericcio, impedendoci di vivere pienamente l'Adesso. *C’è un modo per rallentare e fermare la nostra mente che chiacchiera. Una volta imparato come farlo, sarete in grado di rallentare e fermarla quando ne avrete bisogno (in particolare quando avrete veramente bisogno di fermarla e porre fine all'angoscia e alla sofferenza che vi auto infliggete). *Non potete fermare completamente i vostri pensieri, e non è neppure auspicabile. Anche gli esseri illuminati hanno bisogno di vivere e interagire con la società, come tutti gli esseri umani. *In realtà rallentando la vostra mente che chiacchiera, potete far perdere loro la loro forza. Riconoscendole semplicemente come “illusioni”, cioè, come prodotto di un fenomeno psicologico comune tra gli esseri umani e presumibilmente conosciuto in India sin dai tempi della preistoria: il fenomeno dell’illusione mentale causata da quello che da migliaia di anni è conosciuto come “il velo di Maya”. *Solo liberandovi da questo velo mentale potrete a poco a poco svegliarvi e liberarvi dall’illusione p

As sete lições espirituais e exercícios que você vai encontrar neste livro baseiam-se nos seguintes antigos ensinamentos: * O sofrimento humano e a infelicidade são produzidos pela nossa “mente tagarela”, que produz um diálogo interior ou conversa contínuos, e que nos impede de viver o agora. * Existe uma maneira de abrandar e parar o tagarelar da nossa mente. Logo que aprenda a fazer isso, você também será capaz de abrandar e parar, quando necessário (especialmente quando você precisar mesmo de parar e acabar com sua aflição e sofrimento auto-infligidos). * Você não pode barrar seus pensamentos completamente, nem é desejável. Mesmo os seres iluminados necessitam de viver e interagir com a sociedade, como todos os seres humanos. * Ao diminuir efectivamente o tagarelar da sua mente, você pode fazer com que ele perca o seu poder.

Voice Lessons for Parents: What to Say, How to Say it, and When to Listen
by Wendy MogelRenowned speaker, parenting expert, and New York Times bestselling author Dr. Wendy Mogel offers an essential guide to the new art of talking to children, showing how a change in tone and demeanor can transform the relationship between parent and child.Most parents are perfectly fine communicators—unless they’re talking to their children. Then, too often, their pitch rises and they come across as pleading, indignant, wounded, outraged. In tone and body language they signal, I can’t handle it when you act like a child. Dr. Wendy Mogel saw this pattern time and again in her clinical practice. In response, she developed a remarkably effective series of “voice lessons,” which she shared with parents who were struggling with their kids. The results were immediate: a shift in vocal style led to children who were calmer, listened more attentively, and communicated with more warmth, respect, and sincerity. In Voice Lessons for Parents, Mogel elaborates on her novel clinical approach, revealing how each age and stage of a child’s life brings new opportunities to connect through language. Drawing from sources as diverse as neuroscience, fairy tales, and anthropology, Mogel offers specific guidance for talking to children across the expanse of childhood and adolescence. She also explains the best ways to talk about your child to partners, exes, and grandparents, as well as to teachers, coaches, and caretakers. Throughout the book, Mogel addresses an obstacle that bedevils even the most seasoned and confident parent: the distraction of digital devices, how they impact our connection with our families, and what we can do about it. Mogel’s now classic book, The Blessing of a Skinned Knee, is a beloved resource for a generation of parents. Voice Lessons for Parents brings her unique brand of practical wisdom to harried parents eager to deepen their relationships with their kids. “Children will lead you on an incredible journey,” writes Mogel, “if they trust you, if you take the time, and if you’re willing to follow.”
WA. La vía japonesa de la armonía
by Laura Messina¿En qué consiste exactamente el espíritu japonés? 72 palabras para entender que la verdadera felicidad es la compartida. Wa significa armonía, pero como todas las palabras japonesas evoca mucho más. Wa es, de hecho, todo lo que es suave, sereno y moderado, pero también hace referencia a todo lo que es japonés. Wa es un prefijo que se aplica tanto a cosas como a conceptos. A través de wa, Japón nos enseña su mejor lección: la belleza, la alegría y el civismo se construyen con grandes dosis de compromiso, mediante el trabajo continuo en uno mismo, ejercitando la paciencia, haciendo las cosas con cuidado y nunca a expensas de otros, porque una felicidad verdaderamente duradera es un proyecto de todos y nunca de uno solo. Laura Imai Messina, autora italiana afincada en Tokio y creadora del blog Japan Mon Amour, realiza en este libro un viaje a través de setenta y dos palabras que simbolizan y encarnan el encancanto y la esencia de Japón, y nos desvela el significado oculto de unos nombres llenos de poesía; como las setenta y dos estaciones del antiguo calendario lunar japonés, que cada cinco días da la oportunidad de renovarse. Las enseñanzas procedentes de Japón son más actuales que nunca, incluso en Occidente. Pero, ¿en qué consiste exactamente el espíritu japonés? El antiguo nombre de Japón era Yamato que, dividido en sus ideogramas, significa «Gran wa», es decir, «Gran Armonía». Y esa armonía, que es una prioridad de la cultura japonesa y domina las palabras y actitudes de su gente, es también un concepto en el camino, un sistema de absorción, elección y adaptación, que le da a Japón ese halo de misterio mágico que fascina al mundo.

Walking with Peety: How An Overweight, Middle-aged Shelter Dog Saved My Overweight, Middle-aged Self
by Mark Dagostino Eric O'GreyEric was 150 pounds overweight, depressed, and sick. After a lifetime of failed diet attempts, and the onset of type 2 diabetes due to his weight, Eric went to a new doctor, who surprisingly prescribed a shelter dog. And that's when Eric met Peety: an overweight, middle-aged, and forgotten dog who, like Eric, had seen better days. The two adopted each other and began an incredible journey together, forming a bond of unconditional love that forever changed their lives. Over the next year, just by going on walks, playing together, and eating plant-based foods, Eric lost 150 pounds, and Peety lost 25. As a result, Eric reversed his diabetes, got off all medication, and became happy and healthy for the first time in his life-eventually reconnecting with and marrying his high school sweetheart. WALKING WITH PEETY is for anyone who is ready to make a change in his or her life, and for everyone who knows the joy, love, and hope that dogs can bring. This is more than a tale of mutual rescue. This is an epic story of friendship and strength.
Wat is jou Nalatenskap? 101 Idees om 'n Nalatenskap te skep en bou
by Anca IoviţăIs jy by ‘n kruispad? Wonder jy wat jy met jou lewe met doen? Sal die lewe makliker wees as jy net bietjie aanwysings kon kry? Selfs al gesels mense nie oor nalatenskappe nie, is hierdie die vrae wat gedurende die stil ure van die nag in amper almal se gedagtes maal. Veral in dié van ons wat sekere mylpale bereik soos volwassenheid, middeljare en aftrede. Het jy al ooit die proses van metamorfose van ‘n skoenlapper opgelet? Om uit die kokon te kom is moeilik en pynlik. Jy mag dink jy doen die skoenlapper ‘n guns as jy die kokon se boonste deel oop knip sodat dit makliker kan uitkom, maar as jy dit doen sal die skoenlapper se vlerke nie behoorlik ontwikkel nie en dit sal kruppel wees vir die res van sy lewe. Stribbeling en uitdagings is nodig vir metamorfose om plaas te vind. Hulle is ook nodig vir die skep en bou van ‘n nalatenskap.
