Pages : 125
Book Description
A mother shares how God’s grace helped her through the loss of her child in this memoir of faith, healing, and hope in the midst of tragedy. Losing a loved one can leave you feeling broken, but grief is not something that can be fixed or cured. It is the experience of missing a part of yourself. In Victorious Heart, Kim Peacock openly recounts the devastating loss of her oldest daughter, Nicole, and reveals how the Lord carried her through―and is still carrying her through―the deepest sorrow of her life. For others who are experiencing terrible grief, Victorious Heart offers consolation and wisdom. Kim shares how she managed some of the difficult “firsts” like birthdays and holidays, and how she learned to avoid the “Blame Game.” Grieving family members learn that it will be okay to laugh again and that they too can have a Victorious Heart.
Heteronomy
Author: Christopher Shaun NealonPublisher:
ISBN: 9781890311384
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 68
Book Description
Poetry. Chris Nealon's HETERONOMY is built out of five long poems, including "The Dial." Together they form an overlapping set of mediations on love and friendship and political life. Taking inspiration from a long poetic tradition of self-referential frame devices, Nealon wrote the poems so that each refers to the others, and each is built out of poems within poems—like late-capitalist medieval dream visions in which the poet describes writing a poem, or wishes he were writing, or finds himself startled awake. What's the poem, and what's the frame? It's hard to say—and perhaps because of that, these poems find in the figure of the poet an image of embarrassing self-inflation and comic limitation. They are dedicated to everyone who's felt that way.

The Training Anthology of Santideva
Author: Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199391378
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 513
Book Description
The Training Anthology--or Siksa-samuccaya--is a collection of quotations from Buddhist sutras with illuminating and insightful commentary by the eighth-century North Indian master Santideva. Best known for his philosophical poem, the Bodhicaryavatara, Santideva (or Shantideva) has been a vital source of spiritual guidance and literary inspiration to Tibetan teachers and students throughout the history of Tibetan Buddhism. Charles Goodman offers a translation of this major work of religious literature, in which Santideva has extracted, from the vast ocean of the Buddha's teachings, a large number of passages of exceptional value, either for their practical relevance, philosophical illumination, or aesthetic beauty. The Training Anthology provides a comprehensive overview of the Mahayana path to Awakening and gives scholars an invaluable window into the religious doctrines, ethical commitments, and everyday life of Buddhist monks in India during the first millennium CE.
