    Therapist Monica DiCristina brings proven psychology techniques to readers looking to understand and embrace their pain so they can begin to heal and move forward with a full life ahead of them. Monica DiCristina struggled for years to describe the pain she was experiencing inside. Without knowing what was behind her anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and fears, she created other names for them: “not good enough,” “unworthy,” “messed up,” and “wrong.” Through the slow process of understanding her own story, she discovered a glorious path to healing, as well as a calling to become a therapist to help others in the same way.        Now, Monica has created a guide to help you identify the patterns and barriers that are keeping you from being your authentic self. While not every wound may fully heal, each one can be understood, and that understanding starts when you confront the pain—not just recognizing the hurt, but naming and honoring it.      In Your Pain Has a Name, Monica offers a compassionate, open space for you to give voice to your pain. With the nurturing curiosity often found in a therapist’s office, she will help you:     ·Uncover your hurts: Pinpoint and define the hidden pain that’s holding you back.    ·Name your pain:  Accurately describe and validate your feelings.    ·Reclaim your identity: Distinguish yourself from the false stories your pain has created.    ·Embrace your healing: Release the pain that no longer serves you and step into your truth. In finding the language to describe your hurts, you gain the space and courage to become your fullest self—mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Join Monica on a journey to release the pain that isn't yours to carry.

    Few things bring more immediate scrutiny and impassioned angst among young adult Christians today than hearing the words “purity culture.” Serious flaws from purity culture deserve to be scrutinized, especially given its lasting negative effects on some raised in the movement. Many Christians today reject the movement—and all that it stood for—wholesale. However, we can’t ignore the clear sexual ethics of the Bible. Pure dives into the big picture of God’s design for men and women regarding sexuality, and seeks to reclaim one of the clearest teaching in the scriptures: the call to sexual purity. While purity culture gets the truth right, the approach and gospel elements it espouses are often wrong. Let’s not throw the baby out with the bath water, but rather celebrate God’s great design for marriage and the loving boundaries he has put in place for our joy, protection, and flourishing.

    Satan is Targeting Man's Free Will

    When God created humankind in his image, he gave us some remarkable abilities. We are so totally different to other species here on the earth and that most certainly includes the apes. By being created in the image of God, this gave us the ability to invent and build some amazing things. Look at the world around us and you will see the way humans live is so unique.  
    This is all because God gave us all the free will to do what we want. There is nothing held back from us that is possible to achieve within the laws of nature that God has designed. When man first started to fly it was because men thought it was possible to accomplish and so they invented the aeroplane. The same for everything humans have built over time. 
    None of these abilities have been given to any other animal. It is the sole prerogative of the human race. Our free will has been vital for these developments to take place. 
    It is unfortunate that with our free will, we can do a great deal of evil. Have another look at the surrounding world and see the types of evil man can do when his heart is set on doing evil instead of doing good. 
    Satan is using our free will to draw us away from God. He is the father of lies and his intentions is to destroy us all. He is known as the deceiver of the whole world and has led many people astray. 
    The purpose of this audio book is to make you aware of what he is trying to do in your life and how you can resist him.

    The Magnificent Exit is a book about transitional leadership. Through personal stories, professional case studies, biblical exegesis, character studies, and spiritual insights, Neil Hart introduces the listener to a transformative principle of leadership: the best leaders know when to leave, which is far earlier than usually thought. Here are just a few of the key principles explored in the book: 
     
     
     
    ● The inertia created by poor leadership handoffs is one of the biggest leadership problems. 
     
     
     
    ● Jesus turned the task of building the church over to others and then left the scene, serving as an example of transitional leadership. 
     
     
     
    ● God's vision for us as leaders is to think generationally. 
     
     
     
    ● The best leaders envision their organizations without them in the picture. 
     
     
     
    ● The best leaders know how to avoid "Founder President Syndrome." 
     
     
     
    ● A good transition involves both selecting the right successor and not waiting too long to leave. 
     
     
     
    ● Key quote: "Organizations should exist for people, and people for the mission and kingdom of God. Leaders exist to serve people in that mission, to envision them, to encourage them, to course-correct, and to release them."
