Love Her Well
Author: Kari Kampakis
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 0785234195
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
Now an ECPA Best Seller—Kari Kampakis's Love Her Well gives moms ten practical tips for how to build strong and lasting relationships with their daughters. For many women, having a baby girl is a dream come true. But as girls grow up, the narrative of innocence and joy changes to one of dread as moms are told, "Just wait until she's a teenager!" and handed a disheartening and too-often-true script about a daughter's teenage season of life. Author, blogger, and mom to four daughters Kari Kampakis thinks it's time to change the narrative and mind-set that leads moms to parent teen girls with a spirit of defeat instead of strength. Love Her Well isn't a guide to help mothers "fix" their daughters or make them behave. It's about a mom's journey, doing the heart-work necessary to love a teenager while still being a steady, supportive parent. Kari offers wisdom about how moms can: Choose their words and timing carefully. Listen and empathize with her teen's world. See the good, and love her for who she is. Take care of themselves and find a support system in the process. By working on the foundation, habits, and dynamics of the relationship; mothers can connect with their teen daughters and earn a voice in their lives that allows moms to offer guidance, love, wisdom, and emotional support. Kari gives mothers hope, wisdom, and a reminder that all things are possible through God, who is the source of the guidance and clarity they need in order to grow strong relationships with their daughters at every age—especially during the critical teen years.

Truth Has a Different Shape
Author: Kari O'Driscoll
Publisher: CavanKerry Press
ISBN: 9781933880761
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
A family built, a family lost. Truth Has a Different Shape is a story of the power of compassion, of love and loss, revelations and relationship, and the evolution of self. Growing up in the 1970s and 1980s, Kari O'Driscoll was taught that strength and stoicism were one in the same. She was also taught that a girl's job was to take care of everyone else. For decades, she believed these ideas, doing everything she could to try and keep the remaining parts of her family together, systematically anticipating disaster and fixing catastrophes one by one. Truth Has a Different Shape is one woman's meditation on how societal and familial expectations of mothering influenced her sense of self and purpose, as well as her ideas about caretaking. As an adult, finding herself a caretaker both to her own children and to her aging parents, O'Driscoll finally reckons with the childhood trauma that shaped her world. Adoption, loss, and divorce defined her approach to motherhood, but in Truth Has a Different Shape, O'Driscoll finally pushes back. This memoir tracks her progress as she discovers how to truly care for those she loves without putting herself at risk, using mindfulness and compassion as tools for healing both herself and her difficult relationships.

Sacred Mundane
Author: Kari Patterson
Publisher: Kregel Publications
ISBN: 0825444470
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 235
Book Description
What if the key to changing your life--and yourself--is already in your hand? So many women struggle with what to do with their daily lives. They feel trapped in everyday drudgery and disappointment, in dull domestic duties, and in mundane jobs they despise. Where is the abundant, purposeful life they were promised? Kari Patterson shows readers the truth: in each unremarkable life lies an opportunity to see, know, love, and be utterly transformed by a God who meets everyone right where they are. Instead of stepping away from real life to find God, Patterson equips women with a six-step practice to move further in and meet Him in the humdrum moments of everyday existence. And when a woman's inner being is truly changed by the sacred, everything in her world changes too--right down to tackling the dirty dishes. Through entertaining narrative, candid real-life stories, Bible study, and practical instruction, Sacred Mundane guides individuals or small groups to discover the beautiful sacredness in the lives they already lead. Women who long to grow in God and make a real difference in the world--no matter how small--will reach eagerly for this book and the radical transformation it offers. "Our daily routine, with its mundane tasks and mindless repetition, is ultimately an offering of worship to God. What a great truth from a great God!" --Ann Byle, author of The Making of a Christian Bestseller and coauthor of Devotions for the Soul Surfer

Kari's Sweet Encounter with the Bible; Oracles of God (English and French)
Author: Stella Osammor
Publisher: Delta Maria Books
ISBN: 1904213200
Category : Bibles
Languages : en
Pages : 103
Book Description
ENGLISH Kari, a gorgeous, vibrant, ambitious career girl sets off on the trip of a lifetime only to be brought to a crashing halt by an explosion at the airport. Her life as she knows it ends, and she embarks on a different journey. Her adventures in heaven, meeting Jesus and the celestial splendour are so absorbing, you can almost feel the light in your soul. The ethereal descriptions of the people, angels, and especially of Jesus are beautiful and entrancing. Simple yet vivid, it will draw in and inspire the reader to see heaven as the alluring and truly wondrous place that it is. The illustrations are so sparkly and radiant, the book is almost luminescent. The author's aim of prompting readers to engage with the bible is achieved without being pushy. I particularly enjoyed the different scenarios where various people are comforted and encouraged by scripture specific to their situation and felt both comforted and encouraged. The importance of words, particularly the word of God, is highlighted, which would hopefully stir the reader to pick up the bible, explore their faith and be open to the person of Jesus. FRENCH Kari, une fille de carrière magnifique, vibrante et ambitieuse se lance dans le voyage d'une vie seulement pour être surprise par une explosion à l'aéroport. Sa vie comme elle la connaissait se terminait et elle se lançait dans un voyage différent. Ses aventures dans le ciel, la rencontre avec Jésus et la splendeur céleste sont si absorbantes que vous pouvez presque sentir la lumière dans votre âme. Les descriptions éthérées du peuple, des anges et surtout de Jésus sont belles et envoûtantes. Simple mais vive, elle attirera et inspirera le lecteur à voir le paradis comme l'endroit séduisant et merveilleux qu'il est. Les illustrations sont si brillantes et rayonnantes, le livre est presque luminescent. J'ai particulièrement apprécié les différents scénarios où diverses personnes sont réconfortées et encouragées par les Écritures spécifiques à leur situation et se sentent à la fois réconfortées et encouragées. L'importance des mots, particulièrement la parole de Dieu, est soulignée, ce qui, espérons-le, incitera le lecteur à prendre la Bible, à explorer sa foi et à s'ouvrir à la personne de Jésus.
