Her last love interest turned out to be a major fraud, and her ex, Wesley, refuses to accept that they're finished.

Working as lifeguards together, Keysha realizes that Jerry has more to offer than a great car and a sexy smile, and the harder she tries to ignore him, the more interested he becomes. But is it Keysha that attracts him or the chase itself? And when the biggest party of the year gets dangerously out of line, and Wesley's jealous new girl pins the blame on Keysha, she'll learn exactly who she can trust. Only problem is, it might be too late to save herself....

Mysteries of the Messiah: Unveiling Divine Connections from Genesis to Today
by Rabbi Jason SobelHighlighting connections that have been hidden from non-Jewish eyes, Rabbi Jason Sobel pulls back the curtain to shed God&’s light on the holy scriptures.Most people do not understand how the Bible fits together—even people of faith. Too many Christians accept half an inheritance in that they are content to embrace merely the New Testament. On the flip side, Jews often experience this by embracing only the Old Testament. But God has an intricate plan and purpose for both.In Mysteries of the Messiah, Rabbi Jason Sobel, raised in a Jewish home in New Jersey but now a follower of Yeshua, pulls back the curtain to show the many connections in Scripture hidden in plain sight. Known for his emphatic declaration &“but there&’s more!&” he guides readers from the story of creation through Revelation to see the passion and purpose of the Messiah, the Torah, and several of the patriarchs and prophets.God&’s Word, written by many people over thousands of years, is not a random selection of people and stories, but they have intricate connections. Rabbi Jason connects the dots for readers, helping them see with clarity what God intended.

Myth, Faith and Hermeneutics: Toward Cross-Cultural Religious Understanding
by Raimundo PanikkarBook by Raimundo Panikkar
Myth, History, and Metaphor in the Hebrew Bible
by Paul K.-K. ChoThis book examines the long-debated issue of the relationship between the Hebrew Bible and ancient Near Eastern myths. Using an innovative, interdisciplinary methodology that combines theories of metaphor and narrative, Paul Cho argues that the Hebrew Bible is more deeply mythological than previously recognized. Because the Hebrew Bible contains fragments of the sea myth but no continuous narrative, the study of myth in the Hebrew Bible is usually circumscribed to the level of motifs and themes. Cho challenges this practice and demonstrates that the Hebrew Bible contains shorter and longer compositions studded with imagery that are structured by the plot of sea myths. Through close analysis of key Near Eastern myths and biblical texts, Cho shows that myth had a more fundamental influence on the plot structure and conceptual framework of the Hebrew Bible than has been recognized.
Myth, Mystery, and the Magic of Art Education: Beyond the Artefact
by Kaustuv RoyThis book provides a new understanding of art education, connecting art, necessity, and pedagogy. Plenty has been written about art education, but its potential contribution to inner autonomy and existential emancipation due to the re-articulation of time and space in art has not been adequately explored in a pedagogic context. This book explores art as an affective continuum--not a plaything of culture, but rather a mode of alignment of the existential Eros with our ontological truth.

by Jonathan Glazzard Samuel StonesTeaching and education are awash with myths. This book explores some of them for trainee teachers and asks: - Where does this myth come from? - How do we know that it isn&’t true? - Why does it matter that we challenge it? Every chapter poses a few common myths within that area and explores what the research actually says.

Mythen, Fehlvorstellungen, Fehlkonzepte und Irrtümer in Schule und Unterricht (Psychologie in Bildung und Erziehung: Vom Wissen zum Handeln)
by Marcus Roth Birgit Spinath Gisela Steins Stephan Dutke Maria LimbourgIn der Schule - wie in allen Lebensbereichen unserer Gesellschaft - existieren zahlreiche Mythen, Fehlvorstellungen, Fehlkonzepte und Irrtümer. In diesem Band gehen wir auf die Entstehung von Mythen, ihre Veränderungsmöglichkeiten und ausgewählte spezifische Mythen rund um Lehren und Lernen, aber auch auf Mythen wichtiger Themen des Sozialen im Schulkontext ein. Die Mythen, Fehlvorstellungen, Fehlkonzepte und Irrtümer werden aufbereitet, es wird beschrieben, worin der Mythos besteht, was Empirie und Theorie dazu zu sagen haben und wie die Mythen revidiert werden können. Konsequenzen für Schule und Unterricht werden herausgearbeitet. In diesem Band versammeln sich elf Beiträge, welche auf aktueller psychologischer Forschung beruhen und drei Themenkomplexe aufgreifen. Die ersten drei Beiträge des Bandes vermitteln Wissen zu der Frage, wie man Mythen erkennen kann, woher sie kommen und wie mit ihnen umzugehen ist. Diesem Themenkomplex folgen sieben Beiträge zu Mythen rund um das Lehren und Lernen sowie Themen des Sozialen im Schulkontext. Der den Band abschließende Beitrag richtet den Blick auf die Ausbildung der Lehrkräfte als einem dritten Themenkomplex. Die Beschäftigung mit dem Thema lohnt sich für alle Menschen, die erzieherisch und lehrend tätig sind. Das Thema ist nicht als Kritik an der Praxis am Lehrberuf zu verstehen, sondern als Anregung dafür, auf eigene Vorstellungen aus einer anderen Perspektive zu schauen und sich anregen zu lassen, die ein oder andere Praxis zu verändern.

Mythologizing Black Women: Unveiling White Men's Racist Deep Frame on Race and Gender
by Brittany C. SlattonIn this book Brittany C. Slatton uses innovative internet research methods to reveal contemporary prejudices about relationship partners. In doing so she thoroughly refutes the popular ideology of a post-racial America. Slatton examines the 'deep frame' of white men found in opinions and emotional reactions to black women and their body types, personalities, behaviours, and styles of speech. Their internet responses to questionnaires shows how they treat as common sense radicalised, gendered, and classed versions of black women. Mythologizing Black Women argues that the internet acts as a backstage setting, allowing white men to anonymously express raw feelings about race and sexuality without the fear of reprimand.
