Relationships From Darkness To Light

When confronting relationship problems, we often turn to friends or expensive counselors for advice when we’d be much better served by simply opening our Bibles. Lindsy Rebec Vaiphei Brady draws on her career as a minister and her knowledge of the Bible to reveal important truths about how men and women can get along in this treatise. The stakes are high as failed relationships can hurt children and an individual’s personal relationship with the Lord. It’s time to take back what was lost from Adam and Eve so we can govern and rule by the power of God. The author, who was born and raised in a Christian home but was confused until God touched her and taught her that clarity is not about Christianity but about having a personal relationship with Him, explores topics such as the true foundations of life, choosing the right partner, understanding the secret of Satan, the rewards of the faithful, and more. Whether you are a Christian or a non-Christian, you can make a difference by choosing the right way. Discover hope and the path to victory with the lessons in Relationships: From Darkness to Light.

This book recounts the author's own spiritual journey out of harmful relationships with narcissists and other disordered people and provides hope for survivors. The characteristics of these personality disorders are explained. Twenty five healing practices are presented as well as the author's own experience using the practices and the Twelve Powers of Unity. The book is an honest look at the difficulties of pathological love and the need to embrace spiritual solutions in order to journey out of trauma to reclaiming one's self.

Ryan and Selena Frederick were newlyweds when they landed in Switzerland to pursue Selena's dream of training horses. Neither of them knew at the time that Ryan was living out a death sentence brought on by a worsening genetic heart defect. Soon it became clear he needed major surgery that could either save his life--or result in his death on the operating table. The young couple prepared for the worst. When Ryan survived, they both realized that they still had a future together. But the near loss changed the way they saw all that would lie ahead. They would live and love fiercely, fighting for each other and for a Christ-centered marriage, every step of the way. Fierce Marriage is their story, but more than that, it is a call for married couples to put God first in their relationship, to measure everything they do and say to each other against what Christ did for them, and to see marriage not just as a relationship they should try to keep healthy but also as one worth fighting for in every situation. With the gospel as their foundation, Ryan and Selena offer hope and practical help for common struggles in marriage, including communication problems, sexual frustration, financial stress, family tension, screen-time disconnection, and unrealistic expectations.

I was inspired to write For the Love of Life because of a deep passion of true love within me for people, places, and things. It uncovers the makeup of what true love is really all about. It talks about where its been, what it has to offer, and where its going. It takes the distorted vision of love and transforms it into a clear vision of what true love is really all about. It doesnt exclude the fact that you still have to endure trials, tribulations, sufferings, and hardships but can still be grounded to the thing that has power over anything and everything that you may encounter, which is love. It takes the distorted vision of love and transforms it into a clear vision of true love and ignites the courage and the will to turn your back on darkness to face the light, regardless of whatever you may be going through. The world has taught me how to become a master of what it calls love, and I became very good at it whether I wanted to use it for good or bad, but the love of God shows true love in a world of make-believe. The pictures may change, but the frame will stay the same. Sometimes people paint us a portrait of how they want us to see them, but over time, if it isnt real, the paint starts to fade and true colors show.

“Stielstra is a masterful essayist.” —Roxane Gay, author of Bad Feminist and Hunger From an important new writer comes this powerful collection of personal essays on fear, creativity, art, faith, academia, the Internet, and justice. In this poignant and inciting collection of literary essays, Megan Stielstra tells stories to ward off fears both personal and universal as she grapples toward a better way to live. In her titular piece “The Wrong Way To Save Your Life,” she answers the question of what has value in our lives—a question no longer rhetorical when the apartment above her family’s goes up in flames. “Here is My Heart” sheds light on Megan’s close relationship with her father, whose continued insistence on climbing mountains despite a series of heart attacks leads the author to dissect deer hearts in a poetic attempt to interrogate her own feelings about mortality. Whether she's imagining the implications of open-carry laws on college campuses, recounting the story of going underwater on the mortgage of her first home, or revealing the unexpected pains and joys of marriage and motherhood, Stielstra's work informs, impels, enlightens, and embraces us all. The result is something beautiful—this story, her courage, and, potentially, our own. Intellectually fierce and viscerally intimate, Megan Stielstra's voice is witty, wise, warm, and above all, achingly human.

“A luminous, moving and visual record of fleeting moments of connection.” —New York Times Book Review, Editors’ Choice A visionary work of radical empathy. Known for immersion journalism that is more immersed than most people are willing to go, and for a prose style that is somehow both fierce and soulful, Jeff Sharlet dives deep into the darkness around us and awaiting us. This work began when his father had a heart attack; two years later, Jeff, still in his forties, had a heart attack of his own. In the grip of writerly self-doubt, Jeff turned to images, taking snapshots and posting them on Instagram, writing short, true stories that bloomed into documentary. During those two years, he spent a lot of time on the road: meeting strangers working night shifts as he drove through the mountains to see his father; exploring the life and death of Charley Keunang, a once-aspiring actor shot by the police on LA’s Skid Row; documenting gay pride amidst the violent homophobia of Putin’s Russia; passing time with homeless teen addicts in Dublin; and accompanying a lonely woman, whose only friend was a houseplant, on shopping trips. Early readers have called this book “incantatory,” the voice “prophetic,” in “James Agee’s tradition of looking at the reality of American lives.” Defined by insomnia and late-night driving and the companionship of other darkness-dwellers—night bakers and last-call drinkers, frightened people and frightening people, the homeless, the lost (or merely disoriented), and other people on the margins—This Brilliant Darkness erases the boundaries between author, subject, and reader to ask: how do people live with suffering?

The Reverend Father Anthony Odinakachi Nwachukwu, Ph.D., Psy.D., has ventured into unchartered territory in this provocative and stimulating study of the creative integration of spiritual psychology and the West African mind. His insightful probing into the inner workings of the human mind and spiritual development as epitomized in human relationships is a major contribution to the related fields of West African studies, spiritual psychology, and religious consciousness. John H. Morgan, President Ph.D. (Hartford), D.Sc. (London), Psy.D. (FH/Oxford) Senior Fellow of Foundation House, Oxford. If discipline [i.e. - doing the right thing when no one is watching] and sound moral living are the measurements for solid education, self-fulfillments, religious practices and healthy relationships, then, the book has said it all. It has, not only, provided the various management strategies that resuscitate broken relationships, but also, created conscious inner strengths that keep the healthy ones alive, both in the private and public sectors. I recommend that everybody joins Nwachukwu in this timely opportunity and the 21st century campaign for sound radical changes in the individual lives and society. Anthony J. Grieco, MD, MACP, Professor of Medicine, NYU School of Medicine The African erudite author once more avails every reader of his psychological insight into the secrets of maintaining a healthy relationship. While promoting a positive and optimistic attitude, he gets to the root of the illusions, presumptions and projections that impact negatively on its attainment. The author's reflections in a way seem to have translated the Tillichian idea of the paradoxical co-existence of the good and the bad into its psychological, ethical and practical relevance. I highly recommend this book to everyone who is out to make his life a success story. Dr.-theol. Sylvester I. Ihuoma, Delegate for Africans, University of Muenster, Germany. * Wow! This book is more of the GPS system that guides each individual life. It is actually a book for every rational person. Joan Bareth, (NM, NYU) * Many authors have written on a variety of related subjects on human relationships. But this book practically touches on every aspect of human life, political, socio-religious, spiritual etc and this makes it unique for everybody to read. Mr. Andrew Clerico (Fixed Income Portfolio Manager, NY) Sex has no religion I agree. Your book is as exciting as the Action Alert Tonic AAT you have provided for the young generation and society. Congratulations! Dr. Innocent E. Gubor (Upstate University, SYR, NY)
