Book Description
"I know that the thousands all over the world who love Jerry and whose lives have been enhanced by his message are eagerly looking forward to this new book. They have a treat in store. In clear and beautiful prose Jerry tells us that peace is a conscious choice. Saying good-bye to guilt is a vital step in making that choice."--from the Foreword by John Denver. Love is where there is no fear. Fear is where there is no love. In our age of anxieties, most of us live by complex expectations about what we should achieve, how we should act, and how others should treat us. As a result, we are victimized by guilt and fear--guilt because our standards haven't been met in the past, fear that they won't be met in the future. Inevitable, these negative emotions wreak havoc on our personal relationships, self -esteem, and peace of mind. But what if we let go of our fear and guilt? The transformation can be miraculous, says world famous psychiatrist and author Gerald G. Jampolsky. The secret lies in healthy perception of yourself. Dr. Jampolsky points the way through fourteen lessons that can change your life. These lessons show: How to quiet the ego-self that creates fear and guilt. How to accept genuine love and give it away. How to stop judging others, thereby to stop judging yourself. How to listen to your inner voice to receive support and guidance. How to forgive others so that loneliness and separation become illusions of the past. And much more. Here is a book for everyone who seeks the key to life's most satisfying reward. A book that tells you how to throw off the burdens of the past, and learn what it can mean to truly love.

Book Description
Walking Without Skin is compelling reading. An authentic narrative voice reflects the arduous journey of Lois Wagner through a series of life crises emanating from her violent attack and rape at her Cape Town office one New Year's weekend, culminating years later in her finding the courage to attend her attacker's parole hearing to forgive him, and in so doing setting herself free. Brutally honest but poignant, there are occasional glimpses of the woman Lois was before this terrible event: active, athletic, adventurous, with a strong circle of friends. Her subsequent decline into depression, overeating and -drinking and withdrawal from all her previous business leadership roles finds her betrayed by her business partner, unemployed, and facing an enormous backlog of bills. Determined to discover meaning in the midst of the horror, Lois begins to write Walking Without Skin, and to connect with women in similar situations. She writes letters, lobbies those with influence, uses the media to focus on the rape crisis situation in the country. Walking Without Skin simply had to be written. Lois needed to tell her story -to put this trauma behind her. Her learning and growth can support others who have experienced the hurt, but have not not yet found the healing and freedom that comes from forgiveness.

Book Description
Fear is one of the strongest human emotions, and it is one that often baffles Christians. "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge." — Proverbs 1:7 Fear is one of the strongest human emotions—and one that often baffles Christians. In the Bible the picture can seem equally confusing: Is fear a good thing or a bad thing? And what does it mean to "fear the Lord"? In Rejoice and Tremble, Michael Reeves clears the clouds of confusion and shows that the fear of the Lord is not a negative thing at all, but an intensely delighted wondering at God, our Creator and Redeemer.

Book Description
Too many of us feel trapped in stagnant romantic, family, or workplace relationships. Weighed down by toxic thoughts and emotions, we might be quick to judge and slow to pardon, and self-righteous about our feelings as we dwell on memories of what we or others did (or failed to do). In this tradepaper edition, Iyanla Vanzant challenges us to liberate ourselves from the wounds of the past and to embrace the new power of forgiveness. With Iyanla’s 21-Day Forgiveness Plan, you’ll explore relationship dynamics with your parents, children, friends, partners, co-workers, bosses, yourself, and even God. With journaling work and Emotional Freedom Techniques (also known as "tapping"), you’ll learn to live with more love; gain new clarity on your life, lessons, and blessings; and discover a new level of personal freedom, peace, and well-being. Forgiveness doesn’t mean agreeing with, condoning, or even liking what has happened. Forgiveness means letting go and knowing that—regardless of how challenging, frightening, or difficult an experience may seem—everything is just as it needs to be in order for you to grow and learn. When you focus on how things "should" be, you deny the presence and power of love. Accept the events of the past, while being willing to change your perspective on them. As Iyanla says, "Only forgiveness can liberate minds and hearts once held captive by anger, bitterness, resentment, and fear. Forgiveness is a true path to freedom that can renew faith, build trust, and nourish the soul."

Book Description
Brock Heasley was twelve. The cost of terrible violence was more than just unknown to him--it was negligible. Besides, he never doubted his father would live. He could put footballs into orbit, just like Superman. That was the peak. The comedown was finding out his dad was human after all, sending Brock on a journey of self-discovery and forcing him to question everything he was raised to believe. Then, when tragedy strikes again years later and his father is murdered, Brock's faith and capacity to forgive are put to the ultimate test.
