Book Description
A National Book Award Finalist, this remarkable graphic novel is about growing up in a refugee camp, as told by a former Somali refugee to the Newbery Honor-winning creator of Roller Girl. Omar and his younger brother, Hassan, have spent most of their lives in Dadaab, a refugee camp in Kenya. Life is hard there: never enough food, achingly dull, and without access to the medical care Omar knows his nonverbal brother needs. So when Omar has the opportunity to go to school, he knows it might be a chance to change their future . . . but it would also mean leaving his brother, the only family member he has left, every day. Heartbreak, hope, and gentle humor exist together in this graphic novel about a childhood spent waiting, and a young man who is able to create a sense of family and home in the most difficult of settings. It's an intimate, important, unforgettable look at the day-to-day life of a refugee, as told to New York Times Bestselling author/artist Victoria Jamieson by Omar Mohamed, the Somali man who lived the story.

A Thunderous Voice
Author: Chris Martin
Publisher: Tate Publishing
ISBN: 1615662766
Category : Repentance
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
Much of what has been portrayed concerning John the Baptist and his message of repentance is that he was a wild man, a loose canon who lived in caves, never combed his hair or brushed his teeth, and would yell at the top of his lungs, 'Repent, you sinners!' In A Thunderous Voice, author Chris Martin uncovers the truth about John and discusses how John's message of repentance is different from warnings of hellfire and brimstone preached on street corners and even some pulpits around the world. Repentance is a gift that God has granted us for the forgiveness of sins and is not some type of guilt-ridden, man-made condemnation. A Thunderous Voice is an insightful look into the reality that repentance goes hand in hand with a heart attitude, an action, and a blessing from God. Understanding true repentance will ultimately change the way believers think about and respond to God's grace and mercy so that we can all walk in the freedom that Christ purchased on the cross for his children. This new and profound truth will empower anyone searching for hope and reconciliation, enriching the lives of those who desire to shout with A Thunderous Voice to God.

Wholeheartedness

Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
I’m being pulled in a thousand different directions. As a therapist, Chuck DeGroat hears that line all the time. “I hear it from students and software developers,” he says. “I hear it from spiritual leaders and coffee baristas. And I hear it from my own inner self.” We all feel that nasty pull to and fro, the frantic busyness that exhausts us and threatens to undo us. And we all think we know the solution — more downtime, more relaxation, more rest. And we’re all wrong. As DeGroat himself has discovered, the real solution to what pulls us apart is wholeheartedness, a way of living and being that can transform us from the inside out. And that’s what readers of this book will discover too.
