Author: Greg Holder
Publisher: NavPress

Category : Christian life
Languages : en
Pages : 237
Book Description
Don't settle for a lukewarm Christian life. No one chooses a "less than" life, but sometimes it happens. Sometimes without being aware of the change, our faith becomes apathetic and bland. Fortunately, there is a way to be free from a lukewarm life. Compelling and transformative, Never Settle challenges every Christian to move past the boundaries of complacency and live courageously, one faithful act at a time. It is a tangible and encouraging reminder that your everyday decisions, habits, and relationships have incredible potential for world-changing, redemptive impact. Author Greg Holder offers a fresh vision for the Church: to boldly follow Jesus into the world, dripping with Christian compassion and driven to reach people with radical love. Offering a practical plan for stepping forward in faith and resting in the power of the Holy Spirit, Never Settle will transform your spiritual life and send you forward with new motivation. Because you--yes, you--are called to be a part of what God is doing in the world. "This is the best of both an all-out challenge to live differently as followers of Christ and a beautiful reminder of who we are in Him." --Sadie Robertson Huff, speaker and New York Times bestselling author "A practical road map that will lead you out of a lukewarm, bland faith into a vibrant Kingdom life." --Edgar Sandoval Sr., president of World Vision US "This puts culture, loving people, and being a world changer into their proper perspective--enveloped within God's Word. I cannot say Amen any louder!" --John Cooper, leader singer and founder of Skillet

Some reasons are right in front of your face, and you are too wrapped up in something else to see it. Then there are the ones that you do know, but you just don't know what to do with the answer.

Our Polyvagal World: How Safety and Trauma Change Us
Author: Stephen W. Porges
Publisher: W. W. Norton & Company
ISBN: 1324030267
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 197
Book Description
The creator of the Polyvagal Theory explains the principles in simple terms that are accessible to all. Since Stephen Porges first proposed the Polyvagal Theory in 1994, its basic idea—that the level of safety we feel impacts our health and happiness—has radically shifted how researchers and clinicians approach trauma interventions and therapeutic interactions. Yet despite its wide acceptance, most of the writing on the topic has been obscured behind clinical texts and scientific jargon. Our Polyvagal World definitively presents how Polyvagal Theory can be understandable to all and demonstrates how its practical principles are applicable to anyone looking to live their safest, best, healthiest, and happiest life. What emerges is a worldview filled with optimism and hope, and an understanding as to why our bodies sometimes act in ways our brains wish they didn’t. Filled with actionable advice and real-world examples, this book will change the way you think about your brain, body, and ability to stay calm in a world that feels increasingly overwhelming and stressful.

Across the Great Divide the
Author: Michael Ross
Publisher: Elm Hill
ISBN: 1595559507
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 382
Book Description
Lexington, Kentucky, 1859. After saving John Hunt Morgan from a puma attack, fifteen-year-old farm boy Will Crump joins Hunt’s militia, the Lexington Rifles. Morgan mentors Will and enrolls him in the local university, where he hopes to study law. As tensions rise between the North and South, Will is torn between his loyalty to Morgan and his love for his family. Will’s father, sisters, and sweetheart follow the Union, while Morgan and Will commit to the South. As part of Morgan’s band, Will participates in ambushes and unconventional warfare until his first real battle at Shiloh. He fights bravely, but increasingly questions what the war is accomplishing, and whether his devotion to honor has led him astray. And where is God in all this killing? Will’s sister Albinia, friend of the Clay family, becomes increasingly aware of the plight of the slaves. When she finds Luther, a slave she knows, trying to escape, she must decide between her conscience, and her friends. She becomes involved in the Underground Railroad, helping slaves to freedom – but will it cost her love and her freedom? Will’s other sister, Julia, is approaching spinster status and despairs of ever meeting a man who can give her more than life on a farm until she meets Hiram Johannsen, a son of immigrants who owns a steamship company. They marry and she makes a new life in the North. When Hiram answers the call to fight for the North, Julia runs the steamboat company in her husband’s absence and uses her boats to help Albinia ferry escaped slaves to freedom. Her business relations put her in the perfect position to spy for the North. When the Confederates capture her, will she survive? Luther is one of the first slaves Albinia helps flee the South after his master cruelly abuses his mother and sister. He escapes with his family, and when war breaks out, he fights for the North as an auxiliary of the Third Ohio Cavalry, alongside Julia’s husband, Hiram, and against Morgan and Will. Luther has to confront the demons of his past, an abusive master, and a slave catcher that kills his little sister. Will the desire for revenge destroy him? Throughout the war, Will is forced to examine and question everything he believes in—his faith in God, his love for his family, his loyalty to Morgan, and his worth as a human being. Will and his family must somehow mend the torn fabric of relationships to find peace, and reach Across the Great Divide.

Book Description
NATIONAL BESTSELLER • For anyone who wants to learn a foreign language, this is the method that will finally make the words stick. “A brilliant and thoroughly modern guide to learning new languages.”—Gary Marcus, cognitive psychologist and author of the New York Times bestseller Guitar Zero At thirty years old, Gabriel Wyner speaks six languages fluently. He didn’t learn them in school—who does? Rather, he learned them in the past few years, working on his own and practicing on the subway, using simple techniques and free online resources—and here he wants to show others what he’s discovered. Starting with pronunciation, you’ll learn how to rewire your ears and turn foreign sounds into familiar sounds. You’ll retrain your tongue to produce those sounds accurately, using tricks from opera singers and actors. Next, you’ll begin to tackle words, and connect sounds and spellings to imagery rather than translations, which will enable you to think in a foreign language. And with the help of sophisticated spaced-repetition techniques, you’ll be able to memorize hundreds of words a month in minutes every day. This is brain hacking at its most exciting, taking what we know about neuroscience and linguistics and using it to create the most efficient and enjoyable way to learn a foreign language in the spare minutes of your day.
