Grace, Period.: Living in the Amazing Reality of Jesus' Finished Work
by Robert MorrisBestselling author and megachurch pastor Robert Morris unpacks the full meaning and significance of the grace of God, revealing for Christians a freedom from shame, guilt, and striving that few believers have begun to grasp. In life, we often look for fulfillment in our performance. We try to earn our way to happiness by achieving goals and meeting obligations. We try everything we can to earn favor with God. But what we find instead is disappointment, fear, and weariness. In Grace, Period., Pastor Robert Morris shows that we don&’t need to live this way. What we truly want has already been given to us—we simply need to receive it! Looking in-depth at the life and teachings of Jesus, Pastor Morris reveals the beauty and perfection of God&’s amazing grace. He uncovers its sheer abundance, lavishness, and extravagance, and explains what happens in our day-to-day lives when we fully accept it. Exploring the blessings we have now—access to God&’s love, favor, and approval—Pastor Morris teaches us how to find rest, gratitude, fruitfulness, confidence, joy, and the list goes on. In other words, Grace, Period. is a clear and compelling roadmap for arriving at an end to striving and shame. It&’s a guide for finding and enjoying the abundant life God sent Jesus to purchase for us. A life given to us by grace—only grace.A Study Guide is also available for purchase.

Greenlights: Raucous Stories And Outlaw Wisdom From The Academy Award-winning Actor
by Matthew McConaughey#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • 6 MILLION COPIES SOLD WORLDWIDE! Discover the life-changing memoir that has inspired millions of readers through the Academy Award–winning actor&’s unflinching honesty, unconventional wisdom, and lessons learned the hard way about living with greater satisfaction.&“The No. 1 celebrity memoir of the past 10 years.&”—USA Today&“McConaughey&’s book invites us to grapple with the lessons of his life as he did—and to see that the point was never to win, but to understand.&”—Mark Manson, author of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ckI&’ve been in this life for fifty years, been trying to work out its riddle for forty-two, and been keeping diaries of clues to that riddle for the last thirty-five. Notes about successes and failures, joys and sorrows, things that made me marvel, and things that made me laugh out loud. How to be fair. How to have less stress. How to have fun. How to hurt people less. How to get hurt less. How to be a good man. How to have meaning in life. How to be more me. Recently, I worked up the courage to sit down with those diaries. I found stories I experienced, lessons I learned and forgot, poems, prayers, prescriptions, beliefs about what matters, some great photographs, and a whole bunch of bumper stickers. I found a reliable theme, an approach to living that gave me more satisfaction, at the time, and still: If you know how, and when, to deal with life&’s challenges—how to get relative with the inevitable—you can enjoy a state of success I call &“catching greenlights.&” So I took a one-way ticket to the desert and wrote this book: an album, a record, a story of my life so far. This is fifty years of my sights and seens, felts and figured-outs, cools and shamefuls. Graces, truths, and beauties of brutality. Getting away withs, getting caughts, and getting wets while trying to dance between the raindrops. Hopefully, it&’s medicine that tastes good, a couple of aspirin instead of the infirmary, a spaceship to Mars without needing your pilot&’s license, going to church without having to be born again, and laughing through the tears. It&’s a love letter. To life. It&’s also a guide to catching more greenlights—and to realizing that the yellows and reds eventually turn green too. Good luck.
Grief and Grit(s): A Daughter's Journey of Love and Loss When the World Was Upside-Down
by Marsha Gray HillMarsha Gray Hill's Grief and Grit(s) is an emotional odyssey that illuminates the complexities of grief, while offering a beacon of hope and inspiration for those navigating their own journeys of loss. This extraordinary memoir serves as a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of love to transcend even the darkest of times.In times of unprecedented panic, we see what we&’re really made of. Though the worldwide pandemic affected each of us differently, this time of turmoil brought one thing into stark clarity: the value of human life. When tragedy begets triaging and certain demographics are seen as more disposable than others, what does that say about our society? And what does it say about us? This is a story about America, about how we view the most vulnerable people in our society—our aging and elderly—both in times of crisis and in our everyday lives. This is also a story about a mother and daughter, of a mother raising her daughter in love, faith, and confidence, then the bizarre role-reversal as that mother deteriorated to the helplessness of a child. Nothing can prepare you for that intensity of sorrow and joy. Nothing can prepare you for what happens when the coroner refuses to show up and pronounce your mother legally dead, either. In this stunning debut, author Marsha Hill invites you into a personal look at an uncomfortable truth: how we treat our elderly today defines our own future. Full of tragedy and triumph, laughter and tears, grief and—yes, some good, old-fashioned grits—Grief and Grit(s) is not only a reflection of the life and tragic death of Adaline Gray, but the power of our generation to fight for human dignity at every stage of life.
Grief is a Sneaky Bitch: An Uncensored Guide to Navigating Loss
by Lisa Keefauver'A truly helpful, honest, and important trail map for the journey we all eventually must take through grief' - Steve Leder, New York Times bestselling author of The Beauty of What Remains'An immense amount of knowledge and science around grief and the grieving process' - Colin Campbell, author of Finding the WordsWhen social worker Lisa Keefauver became a widow in 2011, she was alarmed to discover that even though 100 percent of us experience loss, we're living in a grief illiterate world. In her work as a therapist, and in her search for help in the wake of her own loss, Keefauver began to see how the misguided stories we consume about grief lead to unnecessary suffering. Responding to the problematic narratives that grief is something to move on from after completing the five stages like some sort of to-do list, Keefauver became a grief activist. Through this book and her hit podcast of the same title, she creates a safe place to be inside the messiness of it all, to discover the full spectrum of grief, and to find the tools that help grievers move forward, not on. Grief is a Sneaky Bitch is a comprehensive guide-both a manual full of insights and skills and, even more importantly, a thoughtful companion that helps readers feel seen and held. Keefauver shares her personal and professional wisdom alongside the lessons she's learned from clinicians, authors, poets, and friends. In place of rigid instructions and must-do checklists, Grief is a Sneaky Bitch invites reflection, encourages self-compassion and explores the therapeutic power of humour with, yes, a bit of profanity.

Grieve, Breathe, Receive: Finding a Faith Strong Enough to Hold Us
by Steve CarterWhat do you do when your world seems to be falling down all around you? When loss is too much to bear? When disappointment becomes your new reality? Pastor Steve Carter is certain you&’ll find hope and life through these three simple yet profound steps: Grieve. Breathe. Receive.In 2018, in light of further misconduct allegations against Willow Creek Community Church founder and senior pastor Bill Hybels, Steve Carter announced publicly that he was resigning from his dream job as a lead pastor at that church. After posting his resignation online, he turned off all of his devices and began to weep on his wife's shoulder. The next morning as he was taking a walk to process all the thoughts and feelings tumbling around in his mind, he cried out to Jesus in desperation, begging for an answer. "What am I supposed to do now?" He expected nothing but the silence that had overwhelmed him since hitting send on his message to the world, but before he could take two steps, a gentle whisper impressed three words upon his heart: grieve, breathe, receive.Those three words would become a profound mantra for Steve in the season he would soon begin—a season focused on healing. Deep healing. The kind that comes after painful trauma. In this book, Steve is more personal and vulnerable than he's ever been, and by doing so he encourages all of us to:Allow ourselves the necessary time and space to properly GRIEVE what is, what you thought it was going to be and how key people let you down rather than fill our days with activities and commitments that distract us.Slow down to BREATHE in God's grace, His peace, and His love . . . and to learn how to exhale all the negativity, pain, resentment, and bitterness we carry within us.Be open to RECEIVE all the lessons, surprises, and healing God knows we need for every part of us to be made whole. This process of grieving, breathing, and receiving was a life-restoring gift from God for Steve and his family, and he is certain that it will bless anyone who prayerfully follows it.

HOW TO FIND PEACE: Living in a Challenging World
by Jiddu KrishnamurtiPreviously unpublished - This is a collection of Krishnamurti's speeches and informal talks where he discusses war, politics and global tensions. It's especially vital in these times where people are overwhelmed by bad news and discord on all sides.On its 40th anniversary, Krishnamurti was invited to speak to the United Nations. He was then 90 years old, and they used the opportunity to give him a peace medal. The editors at the Krishnamurti Foundation of America were then requested to add more content from various recorded talks to create a book to be distributed by the World Future Society. The book was given out for free at their convention in Washington DC in 1992 but other than that it has never been published. The location of the talks transcribed ranges from Brussels to Mumbai, and from San Diego to Colombo.We are accustomed to Krishnamurti giving guidance on meditation, on inner states and qualities of the mind, but not so much on the world, on how we might live and on how to act in a world torn by conflict and by perceived decline and degradation. What can we do? How should we act? These extracts from talks, speeches and other books will help us feel better when we feel overwhelmed and encourage us to do what is within our power to make things better. Audiences are desperate for some constructive good news in these confusing and troubling times; there are no simple answers and Krishnamurti would never offer these anyway, but this is like sitting round the fire with a trusted elder.

Hard Truths: Think and Lead Like a Green Beret
by Congressman Mike WaltzCongressman and retired Green Beret Mike Waltz shares how the mindset he honed in military service can help anyone—in politics, in business or in life—conquer everyday challenges.Up in the mountains of Afghanistan, one of Mike Waltz's snipers watched through his scope as a young boy acted as a spotter for the Taliban mortars attacking a Green Beret position. The sniper requested permission to fire. Waltz refused, insisting on restraint. The child was spared, and the position was held. Later that same day, Waltz visited a nearby Afghan village and discovered the Taliban had hanged a boy in front of his family—because the child wasn't willing to fight for them.Restraint is a trait common to Green Berets, but rare on the battlefield—and even rarer in today's national political discourse.Now, Mike Waltz is a retired Colonel and a U.S. Representative from Florida, the first Green Beret ever to be elected to Congress. After twenty-seven years in the Army, nearly all of them in the elite Special Forces where he fought America's enemies around the world, he has developed a perspective distinct from most—probably all—of his colleagues in politics today.

He/She/They: How We Talk About Gender and Why It Matters
by Schuyler BailarFrom a trans rights activist and athlete, an urgent guide that changes the conversation about gender identity. Anti-transgender legislation is being introduced in state governments around the United States in record-breaking numbers. Trans people are under attack in sports, healthcare, school curriculum, bathrooms, bars, and nearly every walk of life. He/She/They compassionately addresses fundamental topics, from why being transgender is not a choice and why pronouns are important, to more complex issues including how gender-affirming healthcare can be lifesaving. With a relatable narrative rooted in science, and history, Schuyler helps restore common sense and humanity to a discussion that continues to be divisively coopted and deceptively politicized. He/She/They is more than a book on allyship; it also speaks to trans folks directly, celebrating radical trans joy.

Healing Wisdom from the Afterlife: How to Communicate with the Spirit World
by Alexandra Leclere• Explains the workings of the spirit world, detailing the process of reincarnation and rebirth, along with key concepts like Incarnation Planning Time, the Life Review process, and the Chatter Mind • Explores how communication with spirits can help heal physical and emotional trauma, better understand free will and fate, and support your Soul&’s divine plan • Presents spiritual journey work techniques to make contact with your birth spirit guide and work with spirits to break unhealthy habits and addictions Sharing insights from her more than two decades of experience as a practicing medium and energy healer, Alexandra Leclere presents wisdom from the spirit world on the cycles of death, life after death, and rebirth and reveals how communicating with spirits can help you navigate daily life and support your Soul&’s purpose. She explains how the Soul undergoes an Incarnation Planning Time before incarnating in a physical body, agreeing to the karmic responsibility of certain major events and key moments. Once incarnated, the Soul&’s communication with the physical body is often clouded by current life events, pain from past-life experiences, and the Chatter Mind, which introduces anxiety and negative thoughts of past failures—all of which make it difficult to follow the Soul&’s divine plan for this incarnation. Presenting spiritual journey work techniques, Leclere reveals how to clear the negative traumas and memories that are holding you back from happiness and the purpose that compelled your Soul to reincarnate. She explains how to communicate with the spirits of the departed to learn what is predestined for your Soul, what is freely chosen, and how to stay on target with your Soul&’s purpose. She shows how to make contact with your birth spirit guide, who can offer unconditional love and support to help you overcome life&’s challenges. She explains how to work with spirits to break unhealthy habits and addictions, process grief, heal physical and emotional trauma, and aid the Souls of departed loved ones as they transition into the beyond. The author also describes the Life Review process that happens after we die, a part of the preparation for our next life and a part of our Soul&’s ongoing process of self-development. Through this practical guide to working with the spirit world, you will learn to communicate with those who have passed on and discover ways to make the often-chaotic experience of life clearer and more fulfilling.
Healing and Medicine: A Doctor's Journey Toward Their Integration
by Paul DieppeHealing is on many people’s minds today. In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic and a host of other disruptions and disasters, many of us feel that we need healing – in our personal lives, for the environment and for our planet. But healing is rarely defined and is not an accepted part of medicine in the West. This book examines the relationship between healing and medicine through the eyes of an academic physician who changed his interests from biomedical research to healing late in his career in medicine. It is based on his experiences and stories of his encounters with patients, practitioners and others for whom healing has had a particular significance, as well as his rigorous research into the subject. A central theme of the book is that modern medicine needs to be more pluralistic in its approach to health and accept that spirituality and healing techniques have roles to play alongside scientific medicine, which currently has its base in materialism alone.
