  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  "The Burning God" by R.F. Kuang is the third book in the Poppy War series. It follows Rin, a powerful and complex war leader, as she navigates a world of shifting alliances, betrayals, and the devastating consequences of war. She faces external enemies, as well as her internal demons and a loss of connection to her powers, all of which cause her to grapple with her own moral compromises. The story explores the corrupting nature of power, highlighting Rin's transformation as she becomes a ruthless leader. It also delves into themes of identity, the dehumanizing effects of war, and the clash of cultures and ideologies with the introduction of the Hesperians. The narrative blends military strategy with elements of shamanism, religion and mythology. The book depicts a world where the lines between good and evil are blurred, and where personal sacrifices are often demanded for the sake of survival.

  An honest, humorous, and refreshing look back on the experiences of a unique generation and the challenges of growing older in the digital age.Musings of a Baby Boomer: Life Before X, Y, and Z is a collection of selected shorts from Hoflander’s weekly newspaper column “Full Circle,” featuring sometimes funny and sometimes philosophical stories with a continuous theme: the reluctant, but generally happy, aging of the Baby Boomer generation. In this collection, Hoflander tells stories about everything from yard flamingos and college move-in day to battling internet bots. She reflects on the simpler times of her childhood and addresses present-day changes to which, as a baby boomer, she adapts: memory loss, evolving technology, and politics. Through it all, she uses humor and wit to remind readers not to take life too seriously—and to focus on the things that really matter.“This book entails family, friends, and wisdom from the perspective of the baby boomer generation! A great read for all! Delightful.” —Teresa Parson, First Lady of Missouri“America needs healing, and instead of destroying our history, perhaps musings from those who have been part of history can provide a way forward. That is what Kay Hoflander's book offers.” —Lieutenant Colonel Allen B. West (US Army, Retired), Member, 112th U.S. Congress, Former Chairman, Republican Party of Texas“Hoflander has the magical skills to hit upon daily life with humor and understanding . . . For younger readers, this book just may help you better understand your parents or grandparents. It is a book for all generations to enjoy.” —Suzanne Skelly, University of Missouri Graduate Educator, Realtor, Genealogist and life-long Bibliophile

  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 attachmenthow things go wrong through your often-distorted survival strategieshow God repairs your faith, hope, and love for Him, others, and ourselveshow Jesus quiets your anxious and avoidant faithhow to incorporate practices for building your security with GodYou 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.
