  What's your name? 
   
   
   
  Asian Americans know the pain of being called names that deny our humanity. We may toggle back and forth between different names as a survival strategy. But it's a challenge to discern what names reflect our true identities as Asian Americans and as Christians. In an era when Asians face ongoing discrimination and marginalization, it can be hard to live into God's calling for our lives. 
   
   
   
  Asian American Christians need to hear and own our diverse stories beyond the cultural expectations of the model minority or perpetual foreigner. A team from East Asian, Southeast Asian, and South Asian backgrounds explores what it means to learn our names and be seen by God. They encourage us to know our history, telling diverse stories of the Asian diaspora in America who have been shaped and misshaped by migration, culture, and faith. As we live in the multiple tensions of being Asian American Christians, we can discover who we are and what God may have in store for us and our communities.

  The Complete History of Ancient...

  The story of Ancient Egypt begins along the fertile banks of the Nile River, where geography shaped the destiny of one of the world’s most iconic civilizations. The Nile provided more than just water—it was the lifeline that enabled agriculture, transportation, and trade, making permanent settlement possible in an otherwise arid desert. As early as 5000 BCE, small communities began to emerge, relying on the predictable flooding of the river to support grain cultivation. Over time, these settlements evolved into more complex societies, each developing distinct cultural and political practices. 
  The predynastic period saw the rise of two major regions: Upper Egypt in the south and Lower Egypt in the north. These regions were marked by different customs, burial practices, and artistic expressions, yet both shared a reverence for the Nile and its central role in life and death. Villages grew into city-states ruled by local chieftains, and as competition and alliances formed, a gradual move toward centralization began. Archaeological evidence, including pottery styles and tomb construction, shows increasing social stratification and technological innovation during this period. 
  The unification of Upper and Lower Egypt around 3100 BCE marks the beginning of pharaonic rule and the dynastic era. Traditionally attributed to a ruler named Narmer (also known as Menes), this event was not just a political milestone but also a cultural one. Narmer’s unification is immortalized on the Narmer Palette, a ceremonial artifact that symbolically represents the king’s authority over both lands. With unification came the birth of a centralized administration, standardized religious practices, and a single ruler who was seen not only as a political leader but also as a divine intermediary between the gods and the people.

  Across the Plains in the Donner...

  The story of the Donner Party is very much the story of James F. Reed's family, not simply because the Reeds were prominent members, but because they left much documentary evidence: diaries, memoirs, correspondence, and letters written en route and interviews shortly after the disaster. 
   
  The adopted daughter of Reed, Virginia Reed Murphy's memoir is a noteworthy recounting of the Donner party disaster and its gruesome end. Her writing is sprightly, informal, and full of human interest.

  Still struggling to help your ADHD child? 
  Do you see any or many of these signs and symptoms of ADHD in your child? 
  - Loses important things 
  - Disorganized 
  - Distracted 
  - No follow-through 
  - Avoids mental effort 
  - Doesn't listen 
  - Inattentive 
  - Careless 
  - Spacey 
  - Forgetful 
  - Poor focus 
  If you’re seeing more than a handful of these characteristics, you can’t ignore them.  
  These behaviors indicate a child who is not fully present and not able to embrace the joy available in life. With these behaviors, often they find it impossible to interact in a cooperative, productive, and fulfilling way with other people. They don’t do as well in school, and this affects their future career possibilities. 
  When your child acts up with the symptoms of ADHD, it can put you right on your “last nerve,” and you want a solution. But you’re also recognizing that simply giving your child a pill every day may not be the best or most responsible thing to do. 
  Sure, you can get specialized testing and simply “get a pill” 
  OR 
  You can be a real parent and learn the true MEANING of their behavior, as well as what you can do to help. 
  There IS a Solution to Help a Child with ADHD without Medication 
  I’m here to tell you that there IS a solution for the symptoms you’re seeing in your child. And we’re not talking about controlling or minimizing the symptoms of ADHD. That’s not nearly enough. 
  We’re talking about a real transformation where your child becomes truly happy, fulfilled, responsible, and, well, a human being again - almost always without the use of medications, which have a serious list of possible long-term side effects 
  You can do this, so let's get started.

  The Batavians - The Batavian...

  In this book, we will shed more light on the Batavians, a people in history with much bravery, innovation, and determination to form a republic with freedom for its citizens, with opposing enemies they resisted. 
  The Republic of the 7 United Netherlands was followed by the Batavian Republic. It started on January nineteenth, 1795, and ended on June fifth, 1806, with Louis I's succession to the Dutch throne. 
  The political, financial, and social modifications that took place at the time of the Batavian Republic's short existence have left an enduring mark. The old Dutch Republic's confederal structure was completely changed by a unitary state. The constitution of 1798, which was developed for the first time in Dutch history, was really democratic. 
  I sincerely hope you will enjoy the fascinating history of this book.
