  This valuable deal contains multiple titles in one book. The topics are the following: 
  Florence: Florence was a major center of middle ages European trade and banking, and also one of the most affluent cities in the world at the time. A lot of academics believe it was the beginning of the Renaissance, and it has been called "the Athens of the Middle Ages." Renaissance painters and sculptures alike have their legacy in this city. 
  Naples: Naples, established by Greeks in the first millennium BC, is just one of the world's oldest constantly occupied cities. Naples has a long history, all the way dating back to Roman times, the outbreak of the Vesuvius, and much more. Let’s learn more about this fascinating city’s history. 
  St. Catherine of Siena: Catherine of Siena (who lived from March 25, in 1347 to April 29th, in the year 1380), a Dominican laywoman, was a mystic, activist, and writer who impacted Italian literature and the Catholic Church significantly. She was canonized in 1461 and is a Medical professional of the Church. She was born and raised in Siena and, regardless of her parents' desires, desired dedicate her life to God from an early age. 
  The Vatican: What comes to mind when you say the words “Vatican City?” The Pope? Big cathedrals or underground catacombs with the corpses of buried saints from the past? Crowds of people with candles? Or a choir of young men in a certain attire? The Vatican is a landlocked, independent city state and enclave in Rome, Italy. 
  Venetian Empire: When we think of Venice, we think of masks, canals, murals and frescoes, and little “gondoliers” with picturesque boats. Venice, indeed, has an impressive artistic history. But did you know that Venice was also, for a while, a considerably sized empire? The creation of the Venetian republic is said to have accompanied the starting of the church of St. James at the exact same time.

  This Isn't Love

  After a life in care, with both good and bad experiences of the system, Hope knows all too well what the risks are for children in care as they approach adolescence. Lacking any sense of self-worth or belonging, children in care are often dismissed by the authorities as impossible to manage and, worse, perceived as children who have invited sexual abuse by placing themselves in 'dangerous' situations. They quickly become invisible to the authorities - too old to be perceived as 'children' by the system and yet, far too young to be safe in an adult world. Hope was brought up in care from the age of nine. Until now, she has never spoken about what happened to her once she left the security of her Highgate children's home at the age of 13 and moved into a 'secure unit'. It may have been secure but it was never 'safe'. In this new book, she lifts the lid on this untold chapter of her story and the devastating effects she experienced when she reconnected with her past. This isn't Love is a book that not only casts blame on the men and women who abuse children in care, but also on those who avert their gazes in the belief that these children are 'asking for it'. Hope's story ends on a hopeful note, championing victims of abuse and encouraging others to tell their story.

  Landscapes of the Soul - How the...

  Does it feel like you experience life in a totally different way than others? Like you are living somewhere else, and you can't build connection or intimacy with God like others can?
  There's a good chance that you, like so many of us, have tried it all: read your Bible more, gone to church more, prayed more, and delved deeper into self-awareness. But you still struggle with discontent, anxiety, avoidance and doubt. You still feel stuck.
  No matter where you find yourself emotionally, relationally, or spiritually, Jesus meets you there and helps you move toward a place of peace and rest. As pastors, coaches, and educators, Cyd and Geoff Holsclaw are very familiar with this struggle, and they are prepared to help. In Landscapes of the Soul, they draw on the science and spirituality of attachment theory, biblical wisdom, and the language of spiritual formation to show us why Christians tend to get stuck spiritually—and how to get unstuck and move forward.
  Whether you feel like you're living in a spiritual jungle, desert, or war zone, you will discover:
  
  - how you are designed to grow good roots through healthy relational attachment
  - how things go wrong through your often-distorted survival strategies
  - how God repairs your faith, hope, and love for Him, others, and ourselves
  - how Jesus quiets your anxious and avoidant faith
  - how to incorporate practices for building your security with God
  You aren't meant to live in the anxiety of a jungle, the desolation of a desert, or the chaos of a war zone. God designed you to live in joy and peace in relationship with Him, as if you are in a pasture, under the protective care of the Good Shepherd.

  DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT THE OFFICIAL BOOK. 
  This is a summary, & it does not accompany the official 
  In "Good Inside" by Becky Kennedy, parents are offered a transformative perspective and practical tools to shift from feelings of frustration and self-blame to empowerment and confident leadership in parenting. Dr. Becky challenges the traditional model of child-rearing, which relies on rewards, punishments, and behavior modification techniques that often fail to address children's complex emotional needs and long-term skill development. Instead, she introduces a profound and simple truth: both parents and children have inherent goodness within them. There are no "bad kids" or "bad parents"; there are only good kids struggling and good parents striving to fulfill their roles effectively. 
  Dr. Becky advocates for a shift in focus from discipline to connection, emphasizing the importance of secure attachment in helping children navigate challenging times. "Good Inside" serves as both a manifesto and a practical guide, promoting self-development for parents alongside child development. It provides strategies for shifting perspectives and offers troubleshooting advice for specific parenting scenarios, such as sibling rivalry, separation anxiety, tantrums, and more. This book empowers a generation of parents to raise their children in a way that fosters resilience, confidence, and self-regulation, all while recognizing and nurturing the innate goodness in themselves and their kids.
