Life is hard. We often find ourselves walking through stories that don’t feel like they should be ours. And yet here we are. We wonder where our good God is in the midst of it. But we are not left without hope. In fact—we have the greatest hope of all. Through vulnerable stories and rich insight, Paula Rinehart and Connally Gilliam point to the Larger Story that carries all the anxiety, longing, and beauty of your life. The backdrop of the big gospel story—creation (how life ought to be), the fall (how life is), redemption (how life can be), and restoration (how life will be one day)—gives context to our lives and hope for walking forward. The grand story of the gospel of Jesus Christ frames our every step. Discover renewed strength and joy in the middle of your ache . . . and the goodness of God that will give you the courage to remain yet undaunted.

An unexpected chronicle of heart failure. Prose. Memoir. Essay. Other. This book is a thickness. A lure. Its pages an attempt to reach a body at the moment of invasion. Reduction. Accrual. Heart failure is a compression that folds in many durations. Perhaps for this reason and for the layering of year upon year, Justy Phillips had not, until now, known how to speak about its entanglement in the quiet and gradual violence of childhood sexual trauma. "No doubt my whole life, my work as an artist, and its ways of making-public what we cannot see, has been its own process of recovery. And now, through this failing body, this book—part creature, part ocean, part wet lungs and air—I have found a way to inhabit the limits of what is held. Perhaps only as a way to make room for what will surely follow. Inundate. Collapse. Without this particular heart, shimmering as it is, it is unlikely I could have written the other, paralysed, hollow muscular organ of the past. It is clear to me now that they are not two separate things, these durations, but the ongoing event of one intelligent, fizzing world. In the midst of such entanglements, questions of duration begin to take hold: Where do failures of the heart begin? How do they move? Accumulate, mutate, oscillate back and forth between us? These faltering organs. It is terrifying. And yet so important to bring into language such things." —Justy Phillips

This intimate kaleidoscopic journal takes the reader through the cycles of faith and doubt that typify the author’s spiritual journey from his childhood and youth in Puerto Rico to his retirement years in the United States. Lyrical prose, poetry, and story combine to express the vagaries of a spirituality that, at one and the same time, is unable to gloss over the difficult, often heartbreaking questions of faith, and yet cannot give up on the longing for God.

We bring into full light some excerpts on musical subjects which were until now scattered throughout the most famous scientific texts. The main scientific and musical cultures outside of Europe are also taken into consideration. The first and most important property to underline in the scientific texts examined here is the language they are written in. This means that our multicultural history of the sciences necessarily also becomes a review of the various dominant languages used in the different historical contexts. In this volume, the history of the development of the sciences is told as it happened in real contexts, not in an alienated ideal world.

Shelley MacDonald, the main character and narrator of And Yet, You Still Chose Me, opens up her life for you to view and experience in such a way that you will never forget her. From early childhood through adulthood you will see a life full of such extraordinary circumstances that it would seem inconceivable, if it were not for the fact that this novel is based on a true story. You will experience a roller coaster ride that runs the gamut of emotions from sorrow to joy, from tears to laughter, and from stunned silence to rousing ovations as Shelley draws you into the whole of her existence, mind, body and soul, resulting in your truly caring about her from the beginning to the end of this narrative. The depiction is so descriptive and transparent, and Shelley so compelling, that you will have a hard time putting the book down. "Kimberly Ray's life was marked with tragedy from the start, but it's her undying will to survive and tell the truth that makes this book a page turner. In this painfully gripping story about a little girl who's robbed of any kind of normal upbringing we learn from Kimberly that only through honesty and forgiveness can the human spirit truly thrive." Andrzej Bartkowiak - Renowned Film Director and Cinematographer "This book is a timely and piercingly relevant tour de force, one woman's journey to redemption and salvation after a childhood of sexual assault and abuse. A teachable moment for us all." Takashi Bufford - WEG Screenplay writer "Heart-Pounding, Nail Biting, Hopeful, Brilliantly Written." Michelle Wilson - Senior Reporter/Producer - CBN, The 700 Club "Within these pages is a treasure of wisdom awaiting those who wish to gain a better understanding of how God can 'cause all things to work together for the good.'" Bishop Millicent Hunter - Author of Don't Die in the Winter Kimberly A. Ray is a sought-after keynote speaker throughout the U.S., using her life story to transform lives across the country. Her story is one of brokenness to bravery to breakthrough. Kimberly was born in St. Louis, Missouri. At the tender age of three, she began being sexually abused daily at the hands of her mother's live-in boyfriend, a well-known deacon in the church. After a powerful transformation in her life, she began the process of threading her life back together again piece by piece through intense therapy, coupled with her faith and revisiting all the places that brought her pain to bring about closure. Today, she is setting many captives free by breaking the silence of sexual abuse. As the author of her book And Yet, You Still Chose Me, Kimberly was able to capture every moment of the gut-wrenching experience of molestation she endured for many years, including the multiple rapes by various individuals in her past. She stands firm in walking in her truth and has the boldness to expose the "dirty secrets" of predators in any setting. Therefore, she is dedicated to telling her story across the globe, from interviews on CBN, to ministering in South Africa, the UK, and at Columbia University and other universities. She is a graduate of The Eastern Baptist Theological Seminary, with a degree in pastoral counseling. Kimberly also speaks to the heart of women in churches and conferences, including women who are incarcerated. She is the co-founder of Beauty For Ashes Counseling Center, established March 2019. She's co-executive producer of Tquita and Kimberly Podcast Show. As a businesswoman, Kimberly also is a Real Estate Investor and the Owner of BrownRay Property Investments, LLC. She currently resides in Houston, Texas.
