You can’t afford to live casually, haphazardly. No matter your age, you were born into a plethora of expectations of what it means to be a woman. How easily we assume impoverished views of womanhood as we hoist beauty and desirability above the more enduring traits of self-possession and dignity. We tend to live as divided and distracted selves, allowing our bodies and minds to drift to opposite poles while swapping our pursuit of God for tamer, lesser loves. This collection of essays is more than a call to modesty or chastity. It is a thoughtful provocation to speak well, read often, make choices that reflect the character of God, and even to establish a theology of play or leisure. Being intentional with your choices, cultivating your intellect, and taking seriously your voice determines not only what kind of person you are, but also what kind of woman you will be. “[Unseduced and Unshaken] raises the bar for young Christian women...It’s a call for all Christian women to examine their personal faith presuppositions, deliberately choose a life of Biblical ‘dignity,’ and to not be frightened to allow ‘theology to inform our choices.’” Just Between Us, Summer 2013 issue

Enjoy these SAMPLE pages from Unseduced and Unshaken- Our lives press on at a breakneck pace. So much so that it becomes difficult to even react well-never mind proactively seeking out responsible, conscious choices. Unseduced and Unshaken is that rare resource with a collective eye on the past and a keen grasp of where we need to go. Written for this next generation of Christian women-who are now making so many critical life-choices-these words deal truthfully on today's shaky ground of personal responsibility. Understanding life with a God-centered point-of-view includes thinking carefully about what we women do with our education, our spiritual existence, our leisure, and the importance we place on our intellect, and our bodies. Our choices are physical, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual. We must think wisely about them. We must remain unseduced and unshaken.

Life Takes Place argues that, even in our mobile, hypermodern world, human life is impossible without place. Seamon asks the question: why does life take place? He draws on examples of specific places and place experiences to understand place more broadly. Advocating for a holistic way of understanding that he calls "synergistic relationality," Seamon defines places as spatial fields that gather, activate, sustain, identify, and interconnect things, human beings, experiences, meanings, and events. Throughout his phenomenological explication, Seamon recognizes that places are multivalent in their constitution and sophisticated in their dynamics. Drawing on British philosopher J. G. Bennett’s method of progressive approximation, he considers place and place experience in terms of their holistic, dialectical, and processual dimensions. Recognizing that places always change over time, Seamon examines their processual dimension by identifying six generative processes that he labels interaction, identity, release, realization, intensification, and creation. Drawing on practical examples from architecture, planning, and urban design, he argues that an understanding of these six place processes might contribute to a more rigorous place making that produces robust places and propels vibrant environmental experiences. This book is a significant contribution to the growing research literature in "place and place making studies."

Have you ever felt you’re not enough? Do you find you’re constantly analyzing yourself? Do you continually ask why am I anxious or depressed? Are you tired of seeing therapist after therapist and getting nowhere? Are you sick of the same old self help books filled with exercises that don’t work? Worn out with trying to find the answer to your happiness? Then Stop Struggling! The answer is so simple. It lies within yourself! “What do you mean within yourself? Where? I can’t see it. If it’s true I wouldn’t be in this mess’, I can hear you say. Fortunately, it is true. Why do I say “fortunately” because the answer is so clear when you discover it. You have just forgotten it, by looking for answers externally, always searching but never finding. This book helps you find that one answer, bringing it to your full awareness and embracing it through self love and acceptance and perhaps for the first time hearing your inner self louder than the demons that haunted you for years. In doing so you will gain your own power and not the inner critic that has continually plagued you. By losing self-doubt and building self-esteem you will become the captain and master of your soul, writing your own life script and not some outside influence that doesn’t fit with your inner being. Most of all it is you that will be loved by your own self and stand not so much as tall but as calm and peaceful in your own world that you wish to create and live ridding yourself of struggle, anxiety and depression forever.
