Encouragement for Discouraged Women
Discouragement can happen to anyone, especially women of God. However, discouraged women is never how God wants His children to be and motivates us to look within to pinpoint our struggles' origins. Author Desmarie Guyton discovered that she was serving her flesh and God, and also didn't know Jesus personally as her Savior. Her journey to a solid relationship with God through Jesus is infused into her new advice book, Encouragement for Discouraged Women. Offering spiritual encouragement for women, Desmarie wants readers to realize God has a plan and that they can be free from worry by being transformed through Christ. She describes what led her to stay focused on Jesus and how readers can learn to serve God, not flesh. With God, women can break Satan's strongholds on them and suit up with Ephesians 6's battle armor. It's not just encouragement for the day; it's spiritual encouragement for life.
The Ten Demandments
We are a family who broke and is still breaking all their generational curses, by supporting and teaching each other one step at a time. This book is about a family giving each other their flowers before they die. I do not mean the beautiful flowers you see in the fields that God created for us so graciously. I mean the beautiful gifts that God so loving, caring, and personally gave to each Mom for her to pass down to the generations of God's children.I call these flowers from my children: my grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and maybe even great, great, grandchildren, if I live long enough. I also call the flowers that my children have given: Diplomas and Degrees. Last, I call flowers my children's accomplishments throughout their lives while they are down here on earth. Now I would not ask them to give me my flowers while I live without first being an example of how to do this myself. I was determined to write this book for my family to assure them that they would know as much about me as possible to pass down to the generations to come. I put it in a book just in case someone looses it down the line, that way it will be on the bookshelves in the libraries. I also wrote this book because when my father passed away, I for some reason knew so little about him; I had a very hard time putting his obituary together, and my mother did not remember anything about her family.My father lived to be in his nineties and I only knew one hand full about his relatives. Both of my grandparents were deceased before I was born. Well I did not want my family and my generations to go through that. So this book is for my family and anyone else who can learn from it.

Motherhood in Lockdown
Mothers must not become the forgotten victims of the pandemic. We didn't lose our lives, but many of us lost our sanity. This must never be allowed to happen again.'The Lockdown Mama Community, ' an online group of mothers built in the wake of the COVID-19, were asked to write about their pregnancy, birth and postpartum experiences during a global pandemic.

What resulted, was a raw, powerful and monumental collective case study showcasing the devastating impact that harsh maternity restrictions had on maternal mental health in the UK.Through 150 honest accounts, we see the value of human connection and the strength that can appear in the most vulnerable moments. Babies were grown, birthed, raised and in some cases, lost, as their mothers were forced alone, restricted and driven to extremes.

The Facts of a King From a Queen's Perspective
The purpose of this book is to help men and women who have dealt with incarceration and are re-entering back into society. This book is written through the eyes of a woman. She is called Queen. She is speaking to the KING in him! The King's distress, disappointments, and troubles that dealt him a bad hand should be his motivation to push himself forward. Therefore, he knows by pushing himself forward he will achieve something greater than his Imprisonment. The surface challenges Lust, Addiction, Lying and Cheating Yourself are only products of corruption. The average man who calls himself King, hardly ever reaches a level of Integrity, Nobility, or Honor to be called King anyway. The three major ingredients to be called King are Integrity, Nobility and Honor. Integrity is the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles. Nobility is goodness and being honorable. Honor is high respect and recognition. (Merriam-Webster Dictionary).

The Wild Man
What makes a man a man? How can fathers, grandfathers, and mentors teach boys about biblical masculinity? How do we initiate boys into manhood so they aren't left wondering when they'll become men? In "The Wild Man," Zeke Pipher, pastor and author of "In Pursuit: Devotions for the Hunter and Fisherman," takes on these hard questions and provides clear answers and direction. Pipher offers a practical tool designed to help men-young and old-hold important discussions about what strong, faithful, biblical masculinity looks like today. "The Wild Man" also offers a thoughtful strategy for initiating boys into manhood. Masculinity is complex, and the answers we seek seem lost in a culture that is confused about manhood. Yet, the stakes couldn't be higher. We need to figure this out, not only for ourselves but so that we can raise the next generation of men. Our sons and grandsons long for a clear picture of faithful, courageous masculinity. They need real men to show them the way. "The Wild Man" gives fathers, grandfathers, pastors, and mentors the necessary tools to teach the next generation about faithful masculinity. Many fathers and grandfathers end up regretting that they didn't do more to guide their boys into masculinity. Pipher wrote "The Wild Man" to help men intentionally teach and initiate the next generation. We don't have to carry regrets. We don't have to drop this ball. "This message could change the world! I say that because after spending my life serving the world's most vulnerable populations, I've observed that most pain and suffering can be laid at the feet of men. If they would just step up to be faithful husbands, loving fathers, and dedicated providers, most of this world's hurts could be eradicated." - Dr. Wess Stafford, President Emeritus, Compassion International

Simon
Unable to tell anyone what he wanted Simon Oooper lived in care homes for 36 years. He was profoundly mentally and physically disabled. For 20 years, Simon lived in a care home owned by a family. For the remainder of his life, he lived in a care home run by a company which owned and managed over 260 care homes. His parents were his Court-Appointed deputies, legally responsible for his financial, welfare and health needs. Parents may not know they no longer have any legal role or responsibility for their children when they become adults. Social service departments have the legal authority to decide what should happen to adults who do not have the mental capacity to look after themselves. This book is for parents concerned about what will happen to their disabled child when they become adults. They may be told that putting their child in a care home will ensure they will be better off than living at home with their parents. Simon's parents decided he should be placed in a care home because he was severely disabled and would have a better social life than at home. With hindsight, they are not sure they made the right decision. The care home company and the NHS failed to look after Simon as his parents wanted, leading to much pain for him and extreme mental anguish for his parents during the last ten years of his life. The conclusion, by his mother, is that tthe care home and the NHS failed Simon. Care homes cannot provide the kind of care that parents can give.
Easy Out On Third
This is a story about children with special needs, and the joys and challenges that come along with raising them. It's about making them fit in and feel like they belong in the world. It offers hope and inspiration. This is my story. I will walk you through the journey I have taken raising my thirteen-year-old son, Bobby. It's a journey many have taken, but few have chosen. He was born with a club foot, mild cerebral palsy, and has developed other delays and disabilities. If you met Bobby, you might not even realize he's disabled, at first. If you spent a few minutes with him, you would realize he was a little slow or delayed. It's as if he is a ten- or eleven-year-old, in a thirteen-year-old's body. His brain is always a couple of years behind his body. Bobby is also very tall for his age, so he appears even older than he is, which only makes it harder. I have raised three typical children. They are now young adults and are well on their way to independence. They rely on me mostly for financial help or occasional guidance. Eventually, they will be on their own and live their lives as they choose. I fear Bobby will never be able to live on his own. I worry about his fate after my husband and I are gone. What will become of him? Friends and family, including his older brothers, assure me they will care for him, but I don't think any of them realize the enormous responsibility he is. Mary Beth Czubay lives on long Island with her husband, Steve, and their children. After twenty-five years in the professional workplace, she was forced to put her career on hold to focus on her own health problems, and those of her son, Bobby. As a breast cancer survivor, and the mother of a child with special needs, she prides herself on turning negatives into positives. Easy Out On Third is her first book. Her hope is that her story will help and inspire people with similar challenges and change the way the world looks at people with special needs. keywords: Special Needs, Children, Disabilities, Inspirational, Cerebral Palsy, Uplifting, Humorous, Honest, Eye Opening, Heartwarming, Comforting, Captivating

Nell
A captivating novel, conjured from impressions of the author's grandmother, each scene a bright bead in the necklace of Nell's life. Nell, born into a new century and forged in the freedoms of the high country, yearns for a life that transcends the confines of family expectation. She grows up riding horseback through the foothills of New Zealand's Southern Alps, and each autumn makes the long trek down country to the winter house. Nell plays her part volunteering during WW1 and the 1920 pandemic. She tests the lively waters of the burgeoning Theosophical society in Dunedin, there meeting a lifelong friend Peggy. There is a seduction, and a romance before she meets Herb. Home from the world war, he has taken up a piece of unproductive land under the soldier settlement scheme. Newly married, Herb and Nell move into Herb's whare, a mud hut where only a perpetually burning fire can keep the winter cold at bay. Especially when the fog arrives and hoar frost sprouts from every surface, every twig and fence post. Nell soon falls pregnant, but all is not well as the birth approaches.With a legacy from Nell's father, they buy a Maniototo sheep station flanking Mt Kyeburn and the Dansey's Pass. Nell bears five children. Herb is an uneasy farmer and feels the weight of keeping the farm solvent through the vicissitudes of the Depression, then a second world war.Nell has vowed to keep alive the flame of her inner freedom - a freedom that is tested, by husband Herb's pride and the demands of family life. Herb betrays her trust. Love comes calling and must be reckoned with. There is tragedy.Two wars, a pandemic and the Depression ensure that Nell cannot escape society's matrix. Is it even possible for a woman of Nell's era to hold her own?In Nell's experiences, any woman reader will find resonance with her own: as she dares to step beyond bounds; revels and stumbles in love; knows the perils of life in a female body, and of motherhood; as she embraces the consolations of friendship and seeks a worldview that can hold it all. Speaking of the experience of writing a novel of her grandmother's life, Todd says: "I expected gaps and guesswork, but instead found a presence and a life, vivid and corporeal, that unfolded scene by scene."

Breaking Free
Hello everyone, my name is Benjamin Holland, a.k.a. Dr. B.Can you imagine a little black boy who was tortured by his mother? He and his sister... Can you imagine a little black boy who didn't know how to read or write because his family was moving all the time? Can you imagine a little black boy who learned how to read and write from billboards and street signs because he was always on the road? But he overcame all of those adversities to work at the Boeing company and retire as a team leader.He remembers the times when he was in high-level meetings regarding what was going on in the 737 program. He used to look around the room sometimes and didn't see anyone who looked like him. He used to excuse himself a lot and go to the bathroom to cry, but then he had to pick himself back up and go back into these meetings because he was very good at what he did.He graduated from Seattle Central Community College in 1978 after attending Olympic College and playing junior college football. He also played semi-pro football. But after that, he needed to get his life together, and that's when he joined Boeing.He believes he was about 18 when he joined. He remembers after graduating from Seattle Central Community College with a welding degree, his first job was at Bethlehem Steel. He worked there for two weeks, and they had him sweeping and cleaning out pits. He went to the supervisor and said, "I'm a journeyman welder, not a sweeper." One day, he got to work, was called into the office, and they told him that he was let go. He's been asked, "Am I laid off? Am I fired? What does 'let go' mean?" They said, "We're just going to let you go." He was upset, but he didn't give up. At that moment, he went straight up the street to Boeing. At that time, at Boeing, you filled out a card, and then they would call you. But before he got out the door, a man came out and called his name, saying, "We want to make you an offer." Three hours later, he was hired. Know this: He is a journeyman welder. His white counterparts were grade eight, and he was a grade eight. They couldn't stand it. He had to prove himself. Time after time, he welded on the Minuteman missile, the MX missile, and several other secret projects.At one point, his supervisor came to him and told him that they had to downgrade him from a grade eight to a grade one. That bothers him because they were laying off all the welders since the Minuteman and the MX program were over. So, he took the grade one as a sweeper. But he told himself, "If I'm going to be a sweeper, I'm going to be the best sweeper they've ever seen." And that's what he did. Then, he moved up from that to a coordinator and a team leader.With that said, he never gave up because they were trying to break him, just like his mother and his grandma tried to break him. But he never gave up... That little black boy was me!

Brain Gym(R) became an integral part of my daughter's daily routine with obvious and very positive results. It does work, and so do the many other insightful and valuable principles and techniques Enza has shared in this book. I now have two healthy, happy, and successful adult daughters.
