    What's Out of Order Here? -...

    "What makes this book special is the richness of the illustrations of how symptoms of illness embody concrete events in a family and how family constellations can bring this to light with a respect that allows symptoms to recede and disappear. As far as I am aware, this has never before been identified and illustrated so clearly. This book is a first class pioneering effort. Alongside new insights, it also details the concrete steps that have led to new and often surprising resolutions."
    
    Bert Hellinger
    
    When a machine is out of order, we look for the broken part and attempt repairs. When something goes awry with the human mind, body and spirit, we need to look with a more holistic view for solutions. This book presents the experiences of a physician and psychotherapist who has gone far beyond the 'parts repair' approach to medical treatment to look not only at the whole person, but also the entire family system using the method of family constellations.
    
    The book is comprised of two parts. The first is a basic explanation of the approach, which was first developed by Bert Hellinger. In the second part of the book, practical applications of the method are documented in a wide variety of case studies. Illness and symptoms are viewed in the context of larger systems, and constellations are used to identify disturbances and restore a more health-supporting order.
    
    This report on the method of family constellations is a fascinating trip through theory and practice that offers a new concept of healing for lay readers as well as professionals.
    The Authors:
    Ilse Kutschera, M. D., born in Vienna, Austria in 1936, studied medicine in Graz. She worked as a physician until 1998, when she retired from her position as head of a rehabilitation clinic to devote her time to her private psychotherapy practice. During her career, she had developed a keen interest in psychotherapy and trained in various approaches including primal therapy, transactional analysis, gestalt therapy, NLP and Bert Hellinger's constellation work. This book is an expression of her interest in integrating psychotherapy and classical medicine.
    Christine Brugger, born in Germany in 1962, is head of a radio station in the East Tyrol in Austria. Through her friendship with Dr Kutschera, she became interested in writing about constellation work in the medical field. The book is the result of many interviews, discussions and recorded case histories.

    A gently powerful memoir about deepening your relationship with your homeland. 
     
     
     
    For the first time in more than twenty-five years, Greg Sarris—whose novels are esteemed alongside those of Louise Erdrich and Stephen Graham Jones—presents a book about his own life. In Becoming Story he asks: What does it mean to be truly connected to the place you call home—to walk where innumerable generations of your ancestors have walked? And what does it mean when you dedicate your life to making that connection even deeper? Moving between his childhood and the present day, Sarris creates a kaleidoscopic narrative about the forces that shaped his early years and his eventual work as a tribal leader. He considers the deep past, historical traumas, and possible futures of his homeland. His acclaimed storytelling skills are in top form here, and he charts his journey in prose that is humorous, searching, and profound. Described as "jewellike" by the San Francisco Chronicle, Becoming Story is also a gently powerful guide in the art of belonging to the place where you live.

    Over the past few decades, China has emerged as a dominant force in global affairs, reshaping the economic, political, and cultural landscape of the 21st century. From its beginnings as an agrarian society to its status as the world's second-largest economy, China's rise has been nothing short of transformative. This journey, marked by rapid industrialization, technological innovation, and assertive foreign policy, has propelled the nation into the global spotlight, prompting discussions about the future balance of power in a multipolar world.  
      
    China’s rise did not happen overnight. Decades of reform, beginning with Deng Xiaoping’s economic policies in the late 1970s, laid the foundation for what would become an economic powerhouse. By opening its markets, encouraging foreign investment, and emphasizing export-driven growth, China achieved an unprecedented transformation. The country’s ambitious initiatives, such as the Belt and Road Initiative, have further cemented its influence across Asia, Africa, and Europe, showcasing its capability to lead large-scale international projects.  
      
    While China’s economic success has garnered global admiration, it has also sparked significant challenges and controversies. Trade wars with the United States, disputes over intellectual property rights, and concerns over its role in international organizations have underscored tensions with other global powers. Simultaneously, its advances in technology, including 5G infrastructure and artificial intelligence, have positioned it as a key competitor to traditional Western tech leaders.

    Community development lies at the heart of creating sustainable, thriving, and inclusive urban neighborhoods. It is a process that empowers residents, organizations, and stakeholders to work together toward shared goals, addressing pressing issues while building resilience and fostering a sense of belonging. This approach is not merely about improving infrastructure or economic growth; it is about nurturing the human connections that sustain communities and drive positive change. 
    At its core, community development is rooted in the idea that the people who live in a community are its greatest resource. Empowering individuals to take ownership of their neighborhoods fosters a sense of pride, responsibility, and collective action. By identifying and addressing local challenges—such as affordable housing, access to education, and environmental sustainability—residents can transform their shared spaces into vibrant, dynamic environments where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. 
    The importance of community development is particularly evident in urban areas, where challenges like overcrowding, economic disparity, and social fragmentation often intersect. These densely populated neighborhoods are microcosms of society, representing both its struggles and its potential for innovation and progress. Community development efforts help bridge divides by fostering dialogue, collaboration, and mutual understanding among diverse groups. Through initiatives such as leadership training, mentorship programs, and local events, urban residents can strengthen their networks and create a culture of support and inclusivity.

    Difficult seasons catch us off guard and make us feel like life won’t ever make sense again. 
    On our worst days, it’s hard to believe that God will guide us through the mess. Even on our good days, when we feel we have done all the right things, we may wonder: 
    Why am I working this job? 
    Am I making a difference? 
    How do I know the way to go? 
    Why can’t I seem to be content? 
    In Nothing Wasted, we see how we mature in time. Like fog dissipating, we recognize how God is gently leading us through each season of our lives. We may be struggling, but we are moving forward. 
    Our faith is not unseen. 
    Our moments are not wasted. 
    All the pain that comes in these seasons does lead to a full, rich life, growing in relationship with God and with others.
