Book Description
2nd Illustrated Edition with New Author Afterward & Discussion Guide. (121119) An inspiring love story for ourselves, each other and the world. Love and Truth come alive as poignant and compelling characters in this timeless fable that touches the heart and wakens the soul of the world that is echoed within each of us. "In the beginning, Love and Truth were two halves of a seemingly perfect pair. Together with their different ways, yet sameness of heart, they were able to be and do all things in service to whomever they encountered. It seemed they would spend all eternity together, opening what was closed, filling what was empty, healing what was broken and making crooked things straight. ...Then one day, Truth got an independent notion..." A beautifully woven tale about the urge for togetherness pressed up against the longing for purpose...a search for the things we may have willingly left behind...a tribute to the transformative power of compassion, the uncommon possibility of Two...and an inspiring forecast of all we might yet become as we begin to heal the disconnect between what we love and how we journey through the world. An inspiring wedding or anniversary gift, as well as for friends and loved ones, colleagues and clients, school programs, teachers, grads, housewarmings and as a read-aloud for holiday gatherings. Also a provocative story for discussion groups, retreat centers, relationship healing and the encouragement of personal and planetary peace.

Truth Plus Love
Author: Matt Brown
Publisher: Zondervan
ISBN: 0310355257
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 209
Book Description
Imagine what our world might look like if Christians became known for remarkable love, as well as life-giving truth. The stakes are high and the need is great for Christians to represent Jesus to a watching world. And today, we have more influence than ever before--for better and for worse. We are among the first generations to have access to a global megaphone through social media. But it's not enough to speak truth louder to a noisy culture. To counter the reputation Christians have earned, our love must be just as loud. Ask evangelist Matt Brown, and he will tell you Christians today are facing a crisis of influence. In our rush to speak truth to today's tensions, cultural issues, and trending controversies, it becomes all too easy to focus on proving our points rather than extending God's grace. Conversely, when we seek only to love yet never proclaim a better way, we short-circuit God's plan. Truth Plus Love invites you to rediscover the biblical framework for engaging culture as ambassadors of Christ. Through biblical insight, cultural analysis, and practical principles, Matt Brown outlines how to champion truth without compromise, how to love unconditionally, and ultimately, how to step into this great adventure of representing God to the world. It's hard, it's messy, and it's the unfinished project of a lifetime, yet here we find our great adventure: representing God to a watching world.

Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
Two isolated teens struggle against their complicated lives to find a true connection in this “timely and timeless” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) debut novel about first love and the wreckage of growing up. Lily is returning to her privileged Manhattan high school after a harrowing end to her sophomore year and it’s not pretty. She hates chemistry and her spiteful lab partner, her friends are either not speaking to her or suffocating her with concerned glances, and nothing seems to give her joy anymore. Worst of all, she can’t escape her own thoughts about what drove her away from everyone in the first place. Enter Dari (short for Dariomauritius), the artistic and mysterious transfer student, adept at cutting class. Not that he’d rather be at home with his domineering Trinidadian father. Dari is everything that Lily needs: bright, creative, honest, and unpredictable. And in a school where no one really stands out, Dari finds Lily’s sensitivity and openness magnetic. Their attraction ignites immediately, and for the first time in what feels like forever, Lily and Dari find happiness in each other. In twenty-first-century New York City, the fact that Lily is white and Dari is black shouldn’t matter that much, but nothing’s as simple as it seems. When tragedy becomes reality, can friendship survive even if romance cannot?
