Book Description
I was mandated to write All By Myself...yet Never (Ever) Alone. For years, I'd been in the habit of early-morning intercession with praise and worship as well. One morning, the Lord quieted me down and plainly and powerfully instructed me to write precisely this book. It was to be "His work" for others, and I was to be only the transcriptionist. In one sitting, He dictated the general scope and purpose to me. All the chapter titles are from him, and every sentence within them is inspired by the Holy Spirit. It was to be a pure joy as I daily chronicled for the Lord as He dictated to me his heart and instruction. My short testimony and portion addressed to salvation are very important. However, the latter section devoted to the believer will probably speak loud and clear as a guide and encouragement to the discouraged Christian and the wounded spiritual warriors in the Church. We must maintain the joy of the Lord and be renewed in our spirits to serve God as mature children of the living God! God's sanctification process is a divine lifetime journey, and we don't want to miss any tender moment or required work for the Kingdom. Day by day, we experience inner change accompanied by effective Christian service. I pray this book to be a wonderful tool the Spirit of God will use to speak to his loved ones and draw many more children into the Father's eternal Kingdom.

I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die
Author: Sarah J. Robinson
Publisher: WaterBrook
ISBN: 0593193539
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 257
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.

Forgotten

Pages : 197
Book Description
A remarkable true account of a woman’s amazing spiritual journey which guided her through a devastating cycle of abuse in her life. Out of her pain and her brokenness, she experienced healing through God’s love. “This feeling that I had ‘to do’ something with all that had happened to me was like a request - like it was my responsibility really - to tell my story and to share what He had taught me in order to help others. It is a very humble feeling to even suggest that I can be any sort of messenger from God; but, all these years later that request still hovers me. I can only hope and pray that by telling my story I will have fulfilled the obligation that I have felt so strongly about for such a long, long time.”

The Letters Project
Author: Eleanor Reissa
Publisher: Post Hill Press
ISBN: 1637582560
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 477
Book Description
In 1986, when her mother died at the age of sixty-four, Eleanor Reissa went through all of her belongings. In the back of her mother’s lingerie drawer, she found an old leather purse. Inside that purse was a large wad of folded papers. They were letters. Fifty-six of them. In German. Written in 1949. Letters from her father to her mother, when they were courting. Just four years earlier, he had fought to stay alive in Auschwitz and on the Death March while she had spent the war years suffering in Uzbekistan. Thirty years later, Eleanor—a theatre artist who has been on the forefront of keeping Yiddish alive—finally had the letters translated. The particulars of those letters send her off on an unimaginable adventure into the past, forever changing her and anyone who reads this book. “‘The Holocaust,’ Eleanor Reissa writes in this unforgettable and courageous book, ‘is attached to me like my skin and I would be formless without it.’ A very personal story that is also a fundamental one of a woman trying to make sense of her life and family and of the shadows that go back before she was born. There is plenty of feeling and sentiment but it never feels sentimental. Her inimitable wit leavens the sadder scenes. This journey of discovery is riveting, told with tender insight, at times heartbreaking and at times heartwarming just like the Yiddish songs that have delighted Ms. Reissa’s audiences.” —Joseph Berger is a New York Times reporter and author of Displaced Persons: Growing Up American After the Holocaust “Among the great number of personal takes on the Holocaust, Eleanor Reissa’s book really stands out, both for its intelligence and courage and for the unique way she braids the inter-generational stories together. In this brutal, poignant, and searingly honest book, Reissa simultaneously pieces together the unfathomable story of her Holocaust survivor father, reckons with the guilt she came to feel as his uncomprehending American daughter, and manages somehow to find insight and purpose in the ashes. This extraordinary account of two parallel journeys will stick with anyone privileged enough to read it.” —David Margolick, a former reporter for The New York Times, author of several books, including, most recently, The Promise and the Dream: The Untold Story of Martin Luther King, Jr. And Robert F. Kennedy “The Letters Project is a wonderful book—funny, heartbreaking, and ultimately transcendent. Eleanor Reissa’s journey back into her family’s past makes for a gripping—and very human—international mystery. I highly recommend it.” —Tony Phelan, TV Showrunner for: Grey’s Anatomy, Doubt, and Council of Dads “Eleanor Reissa has written a gritty, fearless yet funny memoir about herself, her family, and the Holocaust. Once I began reading it, I was completely swept away until the journey ended. I was moved by the power of this uniquely personal yet universal story.” —Julian Schlossberg is an American motion pictures, theatre, and television producer
