I love God and I know he loves me, so why can't I move beyond my past? Many have psychological fractures due to abuse and trauma that can cause conflicts between what they know is true about God and their lived experience. This book explores the importance of psychological justice by delving into the author's multiple encounters with death, grief, trauma, betrayal, sickness, and abuse. Walk with her and draw out the theological and psychological ways God has passionately brought psychological justice to her life. Tracing the threads of one's story can open a door of hope leading to a deeper and more congruent grace-filled walk with God the Father, our wonderful Savior Jesus, and the ever-present Holy Spirit. The author's prayer is that her vulnerability might give readers courage to find their own voice and begin to map out their own story.
Successful and content in every way describes the 1950s world of Brad and Lydia Westbrook. Until their firstborn child died in his sleep at only three days old, the description fits. Their ensuing darkness seems impenetrable. Enter Gus: blond, intense brown eyes, a constantly wagging tail, and in need of a good home. Laughter returns slowly and grows with each addition to the family, coming from a variety of God's creatures in need of care. Animal antics cause the shadows to diminish, and become the unlikely catalyst for stability and happiness to once again become commonplace. The journey to complete restoration of faith is not concluded until the Westbrook home welcomes a tiny infant, an ill-tempered mother-in-law, a struggling family, and a young woman burdened with a terrible secret. All seek comfort here. More surprises - some would say miracles - await the family, now tested and thoroughly ready to meet whatever comes along. All Angels Welcome Here is a story you will never forget.
Literary Nonfiction. Poetry. Autobiography. Translated from the French by Richard Sieburth, with a foreword by Maurice Blanchot. Hailed as an important literary document and contemporary pleasure by Lydia Davis, NIGHTS AS DAY, DAYS AS NIGHT is a chronicle of Michel Leiris's dreams. But it is also an exceptional autobiography, a distorted vision of twentieth-century France, a surrealist collage, a collection of prose poems. Leiris, author of the seminal autobiography Manhood, here disrupts the line between being asleep and awake, between being and non-being. He captures the profound strangeness of the dreamer's identity: that anonymous creature who stirs awake at night to experience a warped ...

An epic quest, a dragon, a knight in shining armor—this classic children’s story is the perfect read for 3rd and 4th graders who love medieval fantasy. A magical toy castle plunges 10-year-old William into a wild fantasy adventure—where he discovers the true meaning of courage. When his beloved caretaker Mrs. Phillips tells him she's leaving, William is devastated. Not even her farewell gift of a model medieval castle helps him feel better—though he has to admit it’s fascinating. From the working drawbridge and portcullis to the fully-furnished rooms, it's perfect in every detail. It almost seems magical. And when William looks at the silver knight, the tiny figure comes to life in his hand—and tells him a tale of a wicked sorcerer, a vicious dragon, and a kingdom in need of a hero. Hoping the castle's magic will help him find a way to make his friend stay, William embarks on a daring quest with Sir Simon, the Silver Knight—but he will have to face his own doubts and regrets if he's going to succeed. William’s story continues in The Battle for the Castle, available as a redesigned companion edition.
