Pages : 166
Book Description
This is really not a book but the cries and screams of millions of American and free world Veterans; crying out from their graves and their PTSD prison cells. Thirty seven million American vets are alive as these screams and cries are being recorded and what a giant sacrifice for a freedom loving world. For millions of American vets who returned from war during the most publicly hated and unpopular war in history; I was one of the lucky few because of an accident. In a hurry running out the back door; I grabbed the TABOO cap, the one which had the taboo words Vietnam vet written on it. While pumping gas a busy lovely brown eyed lady walked up to me and tilted her head reading my cap and said Vietnam correct? I yanked off the cap and said Woops wrong cap, sorry and through it in the truck. With lovely manicured hands she took my dirty farm hands; looked me in the eyes and said, Sir I want to thank you for your service. The lovely lady disappeared in the flood running down my dirty face. I screamed and cried with so much joy and happiness the birds hushed their singing. My old flop eared dog tilted his ugly head and said whats wrong boss, did your head jump time? That was the first time I felt okay after a century; and feeling okay is heaven and I know there are millions of vets who do not yet feel okay and millions have gone to their eternal rest not feeling okay. I was one of the lucky few. Sweet lady you wrote this little book and saved a life and many PTSD lives. This little book talks about trapped emotions which is a big part of PTSD and anyone who suffers with traumas; children and wives, husbands to horses, dogs and cats can suffer with trapped emotions so hug your kid, wife or husband, your horse, your dog or cat and they will feel good and so will you. It also talks about what you and I can do about the vet and teen suicide epidemic; school shootings and bombings, school or public bombings and how an epidemic of caring and hugging may slow it down. The book shows how shootings, bombings and suicides often happen in the actors 90% subconscious mind and the 10 % conscious mind knows nothing about it; so the actor feels no guilt and would pass a lie detectors test. Our favorite news caster asks the expert on suicides why; and she says were the last to know, they dont tell anyone they just do it? The expert forgot to add the actor knows nothing about it either because his subconscious survivor mechanism was at work Many are able to control their rage through a belief system as in prayer or talking about it to a friend or a willing listener. The called have the gift of forgiving so they can go on with their happy caring life.

Book Description
Why level up your time with God? The latest stats say 65 percent of adults in America play video games, and we all know kids who play video games as well, but there come issues with that. We've all been told that video games are no good at one point or another, or some of us are the ones who've said it. The media talks about violence caused by games, and many churches and parents talk about them being mental garbage. But how much of that is true? Are video games fundamentally different than spending time with God, or can they actually be something that helps our relationship with God? What if our games could be something that helps us know God more instead of being something that distracts us from God to the point we either feel guilty thinking about God or we just leave the church altogether? What if you, as a gamer, could read something that connects games to God in a meaningful way? What if you-as a parent, grandparent, spouse, or friend of a gamer-could read something that answers your worries and shows just how much of God is in this stuff? We don't have to wonder. We can love video games and still choose God. You just need to Level Up Your Time with God.

God, Do You Hear Me?

ISBN: 1535995742
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 154
Book Description
God, do you hear me? If we're honest, that's a sentiment we’ve all shared. Prayer can be challenging and confusing. Often we feel abandoned, betrayed, and anxious. We don't know what to pray for, we don't know the words to say, and sometimes it just feels like there's no one on the other side. Through the pages of this book, pastor and bestselling author Derwin Gray will journey with you, in learning and living the prayer that God always answers. This prayer is commonly called the Lord’s Prayer (Matt 6:9-13). The Lord's Prayer is the firm foundation God uses to build our lives on the Rock. It will help you break through to a completely new and refreshing prayer life. Along this journey, you'll learn several things about prayer: Prayer is the secret place where we find God waiting for us. Prayer is the door we enter to discover God’s heart of unending grace. Prayer is the home we have always wanted, where we can crawl into our Father’s lap and find our purpose. Prayer is not about getting God to give us stuff. It is about becoming who we were made to be: a reflection of Jesus in the world.

How I Found Peace

Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1491802243
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 333
Book Description
You will love the stories of how God finally got his attention as he went through encounters with wild animals, was struck by lightning, went through killer tornadoes, had many encounters with snakes in the wild, etc. He eventually was used by God in many ways which he shares with us as he and his wife ministered to other peoples children through Scouting, foster parenting, adopting abused children, and in church ministry. He eventually was led to peace and because of his path to it he could use his experiences during his earlier life to minister to others that were hurting as he had been. In the later years as God proved time and again of His love for Larry, God was able to utilize all of these stories through the different ministries to inmates in jails, hitch-hikers along the hi-ways, answering phones with the Billy Graham Telephone Ministry, and as he worked to slow down the cultural deterioration of our Nation. If you or someone that you know has had a similar background of growing up under abuse, rejection, and anger, then as you read of Larrys stories, you can see how God was able to change him, and if you apply those things he was shown, you too can find peace. You will laugh and cry as you see the struggles that he went through. This book is worth the price just for the humor, but it is priceless for the life lessons that he shares with us. May you also find peace.

Tender to the World
Author: Carolyn Whitney-Brown
Publisher: McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP
ISBN: 0228000661
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages :
Book Description
"What is the secret that allows L'Arche to exist? I'll tell you: pleasure!" explains Jean Vanier, founder of the international federation of L'Arche communities where people with and without intellectual disabilities share their lives. Vanier's spiritual vision and playful sense of humour shaped L'Arche, but the organization was also informed by its surprising history with the United Church of Canada. In Tender to the World Carolyn Whitney-Brown explores the connections between the two organizations through diverse critical insights from Julia Kristeva, Doreen Massey, and Mikhail Bakhtin, as well as Vanier's controversial articulation of the gift of weakness. Tracing the five-decade relationship between L'Arche and the United Church alongside evolving disability theories, Whitney-Brown examines both the fundamental importance of stories and the agency of people with intellectual disabilities. Inversion – a transformative overturning of expectations in social interactions – can be upsetting or exciting, challenging or inspiring, she argues. This book offers a fresh look at how L'Arche and the United Church have worked to break down walls of difference, illuminating how each tenders something unexpected to the other and to the world. At a time when many are seeking new visions for society, the long and complex relationship between Canada's largest Protestant denomination and L'Arche offers both encouragement and a deeper way to approach questions of living in diverse communities.
