Book Description
Life is made the way Sun is to smile at everyone. Unfortunately, some people have received it and lost it; some are just having it; others never tasted it. It is not bad, it is fine. What is bad is when people can wake up, walk from dawn to dark without asking themselves, "What is going on with me, by me and around the world?" For those who have tasted the bitterness of separation, injustice, humiliation, divorce, mistakes; for those who have been shadowed by bad events, this book is a walking stick that can take you back to a shining place. This book will help you to understand the world, to understand life and, from there, to understand yourself, to get warm and warm the world.

Book Description
We are living in a hostile world; a world full of uncertainties, of nasty crises and conflicts. So many people are fighting to save the world. But they fail continuously. We cannot successfully clean what is dirty when our hands are dirty. We cannot give the world our love when there isn't love inside our chest. To shake those problems, we need to shake ourselves first; to rebuild the world, we need to reposition and rebuild ourselves from within. What we get results from the impurities we carry and poisoning the world with. WINGS' SONGS ON THE WILD WINDS is a strong appeal for change from within.

Book Description
A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Book Description
The author comes face-to-face with the medical establishment, finding strange unfamiliar words and procedures, resulting in new feelings and new ways to look at life. Sometimes cynical, sometimes whimsical, but always truthful and sobering. Without confusing medical terms, he describes the various modalities incorporated in our hospitals and the unique figures that perform their magic. Not to be left out are the special folks he runs into while getting treatment. Dickensian characters and the land of Oz witches come to mind whilst seeking sane treatment from some highly questionable medical practitioners, doctors yelling at him for asking questions, staff neglect over the most mundane things that take on super-relevance like the ever-disappearing tissue box. For further clarification, a few pages of the author's early life are included, and a bit about 911 seemed appropriate, along with a mere smidgen of a poetic verse from his vast poetic works available soon. All royalties from the sale of this book will be donated to the Cancer Treatment Centers of America in memory of Emma Olan, a fearless warrior for life.

Book Description
A People Book of the Week & a Kirkus Best Nonfiction of the Year An exquisite and inspiring memoir about one mother’s unimaginable choice in the face of oppression and abuse in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan. In the days before Homeira Qaderi gave birth to her son, Siawash, the road to the hospital in Kabul would often be barricaded because of the frequent suicide explosions. With the city and the military on edge, it was not uncommon for an armed soldier to point his gun at the pregnant woman’s bulging stomach, terrified that she was hiding a bomb. Frightened and in pain, she was once forced to make her way on foot. Propelled by the love she held for her soon-to-be-born child, Homeira walked through blood and wreckage to reach the hospital doors. But the joy of her beautiful son’s birth was soon overshadowed by other dangers that would threaten her life. No ordinary Afghan woman, Homeira refused to cower under the strictures of a misogynistic social order. Defying the law, she risked her freedom to teach children reading and writing and fought for women’s rights in her theocratic and patriarchal society. Devastating in its power, Dancing in the Mosque is a mother’s searing letter to a son she was forced to leave behind. In telling her story—and that of Afghan women—Homeira challenges you to reconsider the meaning of motherhood, sacrifice, and survival. Her story asks you to consider the lengths you would go to protect yourself, your family, and your dignity.
