Book Description
Understand what your teenage daughter really means—and learn to use your arguments to strengthen your bond with her. Mothers and teenage daughters argue more than any other child-parent pair—on average every two-and-a-half days. These quarrels, Terri Apter shows, are attempts to negotiate changes in a relationship that is valued by both mothers and daughters. A daughter often feels her mother doesn't know or understand her, and by fighting hopes to force her mother into a new awareness of who she really is, how she has changed, and what she is now capable of doing and understanding. But mothers often misinterpret their daughter's outbursts as signs of rejection, and they may pull back feeling hurt and confused. Through case studies and conversations between mothers and daughters, Apter shows mothers how to interpret the meanings behind a daughter's angry words and how to emerge from arguments with a new closeness.

It Is Not Lawful for Me to Fight
Author: Jean-Michel Hornus
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 160608934X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 373
Book Description
It is not lawful for me to fight. With these words Saint Martin of Tours left the Roman army in AD 356. In so doing, he-who ironically in later centuries was named patron saint of numerous garrison chapels-was acting in accordance with the teaching and discipline of the pre-Constantinian church. The Early Church, as Dr. Hornus demonstrates in this historical and theological study, consistently maintained the stance of enemy loving and nonviolence. It forbade believers to take life, and was deeply suspicious of the military profession. Only in the course of the fourth century, in the context of general ethical decline and cultural accommodation, did anti-militarism cease to be the church's official position. Dr. Hornus concludes his study by reflecting upon the relevance of the thought and action of the early Christians for our own violent age.

Ravenmocker
Author: Paul Hargett
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 0595204511
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 440
Book Description
The most brutal serial killer the FBI has ever encountered is murdering descendents of a particular Cherokee tribe. As the number of bizarre killings spread across the Southern United States, authorities are clueless. Their tribal search leads them to Steven Waters, and his cousin, Morgan Roberts. Morgan, recently discharged from the Army under questionable circumstances, is reluctantly drawn into the situation. He is forced to confront the very things he most fears; his past, his heritage and returning to his mountain home. The last great tribal shaman tells Morgan the killer is an inhuman demon, a “Ravenmocker”, one of the most horrible beings from ancient Cherokee legend. Once, perhaps still, these powerful beings roamed the high mountain peaks and valleys of the Appalachians, preying on the people who could do little to stop them. Morgan’s infirm hold on modern logic and science makes it difficult for him to accept such ideas. He is forced to choose between what he knows to be real in his mind and what his heritage suggests could be real in his heart. It’s left to Morgan and Steven to stop the killings before they become victims themselves.

Book Description
Every couple fights—it’s how you fight that can determine the success of your relationship. This book teaches you to look beyond what you and your partner fight about, and discover the core issues that undermine your relationship. In the midst of a disagreement, many couples ask themselves, “What are we really fighting about?” Sound familiar? As it turns out, breakups and divorce don’t happen because couples fight, they happen because of how couples fight.

In this unique guide, you’ll learn how to use disagreements as an opportunity to deepen your understanding of your partner, bring more intimacy to the relationship, strengthen your bond, and really learn from the conflicts and tensions that occur between you. You’ll also learn how to navigate the fifteen most common fights couples have, including “the blame game,” “dueling over dollars,” “If you really loved me, you’d…,” “told-you-so’s,” and more. If you’re ready to start fighting for your love, rather than against it, this book will show you how.
