  Are you constantly seeking reassurance from others? Do you suffer from debilitating anxiety if you aren't absolutely certain about everything? Seeking reassurance to remove doubt or fear is natural, and we all do it from time to time. However, it becomes a compulsion when it develops into something repetitive and ritualistic. This compulsion is linked to obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), can perpetuate and worsen this condition, and can also create conflict between you, your friends, coworkers, and loved ones. So, how do you stop? 
   
   
   
  The Compulsive Reassurance Seeking Workbook offers proven-effective tools to reduce compulsions, make peace with uncertainty, and better manage your OCD. Grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), an evidence-based treatment for OCD, this workbook reveals how reassurance seeking can interfere with your relationships, and provides healthy coping strategies you can use to reassure yourself—without resorting to compulsive questioning. 
   
   
   
  Compulsive reassurance seeking can be exhausting, and more often than not, exposes you and those closest to you to increased levels of conflict, stress, and anxiety. It's time to reassure yourself the right way—a way that encourages and empowers you to seek genuine well-being, self-worth, and peace of mind from within. This workbook can help you get started today.

  And Then There Were Some - A...

  Nineteenth century Scottish author Thomas Carlyle once said that religion is the most important thing about a person. By religion, he did not mean the church-creed people profess, but what they do that identifies their relationship to this mysterious universe. Religion is a depiction of one's worldview. It might be inherited from family, adopted from friends or admired persons, ... or it could be a reflection of one's preferred lifestyle. 
  Sadly, the topic of worldviews is a sensitive one, despite its crucial role in charting our destiny. Very few people want to hear what they don't want to hear. And Then There Were Some takes an evidence-based approach to major worldviews. Hundreds of references are drawn from science, history, literature, philosophy, entertainment, exploration, and scripture to encourage the reader to consider the factual bases of the world's major claims. 
  A man was once how he became successful. He answered that, as a boy, when he and his friends hunted birds' eggs he could always find more eggs than any of the other boys. When asked why, he said that he thought it was because he always looked into more bushes. And Then There Were Some is a bush worth looking into.

  Liberal White Supremacy - How...

  In Liberal White Supremacy, Angie Beeman argues that white supremacy is maintained not only by right-wing conservatives or stereotypically uneducated working-class racial bigots but also by progressives who operate from a liberal ideology of color-blindness, racism-evasiveness, and class elitism. This distinction provides insight on divisions among progressives at the local level, in community organizations, and at the national level, in the Democratic Party. By distinguishing between liberal and radical approaches to racism, class oppression, capitalism, and social movement tactics, Beeman shows how progressives continue to be limited by liberal ideology and perpetuate rather than dismantle white supremacy, all while claiming to be antiracist. 
   
   
   
  She conceptualizes this self-serving process as "liberal white supremacy," the tendency for liberal European Americans to constantly place themselves in the superior moral position in a way that reinforces inequality. Beeman advances what she calls action-oriented and racism-centered intersectional approaches as alternatives to progressive organizational strategies that either downplay racism in favor of a class-centered approach or take a talk-centered approach to racism without developing explicit actions to challenge it.

  Hosea, son of Beeri, was an 8th-century BC prophet in Israel and the nominal primary author of the Book of Hosea. He is the first of the Twelve Minor Prophets, whose collective writings were aggregated and organized into a single book in the Jewish Tanakh by the Second Temple period, forming the last book of the Nevi'im; but which writings are distinguished as individual books in Christianity. Hosea is often seen as a "prophet of doom", but underneath his message of destruction is a promise of restoration. The Talmud claims that he was the greatest prophet of his generation. The period of Hosea's ministry extended to some sixty years, and he was the only prophet of Israel of his time who left any written prophecy.
