Book excerpt: If you find yourself struggling to fill an empty hole in your heart and life, experiencing God will forever change your life. Our society and the culture of the world is changing almost faster than we can keep up. The things of life are continually pulling our attention in numerous directions. Our time is under constant restraint, we fight to squeeze in just the few things we enjoy amidst the busy of everyday life. We have to fight for relationships with our friends, our siblings, our parents, our spouses, our children, and even our God! Our beliefs in God are questioned and doubts of God’s existence, goodness, mercy and love are constantly being thrown our way. We are scared to step out in faith because something bad might happen. It’s easier to just stay quiet and “go along with the flow”. If you have ever found yourself wondering how faith, the Bible and God directly applies to life, you are invited to come and discover just how much God cares about YOUR life. We are created for relationship. Designed to be loved. We were made for God. Knowing This is a 90-day devotional journal that will take you on an adventure of discovering God on a more personal and intimate level. Each devotional comes from my personal quiet time that I have spent with my Heavenly Father. There are some real and raw moments and deep truths that God has shown me through the last few years. Every day is designed to encourage you to go and enjoy God’s presence. Encourage you to experience Him! The daily devotionals include a passage of scripture, a personal challenge or life-lesson taught from that passage, some thought-provoking questions and a journal space to record your own journey, thoughts and experiences in your adventure to deeper intimacy with God.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Malinger (feign illness)? Even many people suffer from various pains, discomfort, disease, all kinds of tests show normal. What's wrong? 1. Modern medicine may treat less than 30% of various diseases, but the general population believes medical doctors treat 80-100%. 2. Most tests cant find the cancer cells less than 5mm. Then there is no cancer. Now you see the picture. Factors that cause cancer 1. Damp heat As far as I know, I am the first one who has claimed the damp heat is the cause of cancer. If we dont know the real cause, we are not able to prevent and fight against the cancer. I would like to receive the Nobel Prize based on this fact. If everyone follows and keeps the contents of this book, cancer can be prevented very easily. 2. The lack of immune system When the immune system is low, cancer cells would grow and the body cant best the cancer cells. How to increase the immunity? 3. Chemical and environmental causes This is true, but it is almost impossible to cope with them as an individual. For example, can we remove all plastics from modern life? The author would try to explain all wonders related with health with very simple words.

Book excerpt: This anthology includes essays from a diverse group of adult-diagnosed autistic people. Our essays reflect the value of knowing why—why we are different from so many other people, why it can be so hard to do things others can take for granted, and why there is often such a mismatch between others' treatment of us and our own needs, skills, and experiences. Essay topics include recovering from burnout, exploring our passions and interests, and coping with sensory overload, especially in social situations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God’s friend—that’s what the book of James calls Abraham, the father of the Israelite nation. Friendships take time, trust, and sacrifice, and in this insightful study Oswald Chambers examines each step of Abraham’s faith-journey toward intimate friendship with his creator. Chambers shows us how this great pioneer of faith reacted to God’s call, the claims of companions, clashing circumstances, and the terrific cost of God’s friendship. Not Knowing Whither asks Christians today to look each faith challenge in the eye—to face the unknown—and pursue friendship with God.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prejudice is often not a conscious attitude: because of ingrained habits in relating to the world, one may act in prejudiced ways toward others without explicitly understanding the meaning of one’s actions. Similarly, one may know how to do certain things, like ride a bicycle, without being able to articulate in words what that knowledge is. These are examples of what Alexis Shotwell discusses in Knowing Otherwise as phenomena of “implicit understanding.” Presenting a systematic analysis of this concept, she highlights how this kind of understanding may be used to ground positive political and social change, such as combating racism in its less overt and more deep-rooted forms. Shotwell begins by distinguishing four basic types of implicit understanding: nonpropositional, skill-based, or practical knowledge; embodied knowledge; potentially propositional knowledge; and affective knowledge. She then develops the notion of a racialized and gendered “common sense,” drawing on Gramsci and critical race theorists, and clarifies the idea of embodied knowledge by showing how it operates in the realm of aesthetics. She also examines the role that both negative affects, like shame, and positive affects, like sympathy, can play in moving us away from racism and toward political solidarity and social justice. Finally, Shotwell looks at the politicized experience of one’s body in feminist and transgender theories of liberation in order to elucidate the role of situated sensuous knowledge in bringing about social change and political transformation.

Book excerpt: Traditionally, American Jews have been broadly liberal in their political outlook; indeed African-Americans are the only ethnic group more likely to vote Democratic in US elections. Over the past half century, however, attitudes on one topic have stood in sharp contrast to this group's generally progressive stance: support for Israel. Despite Israel's record of militarism, illegal settlements and human rights violations, American Jews have, stretching back to the 1960s, remained largely steadfast supporters of the Jewish "homeland". But, as Norman Finkelstein explains in an elegantly-argued and richly-textured new book, this is now beginning to change. Reports by Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International and the United Nations, and books by commentators as prominent as President Jimmy Carter and as well-respected in the scholarly community as Stephen Walt, John Mearsheimer and Peter Beinart, have increasingly pinpointed the fundamental illiberalism of the Israeli state. In the light of these exposes, the support of America Jews for Israel has begun to fray. This erosion has been particularly marked among younger members of the community. A 2010 Brandeis University poll found that only about one quarter of Jews aged under 40 today feel "very much" connected to Israel. In successive chapters that combine Finkelstein's customary meticulous research with polemical brio, Knowing Too Much sets the work of defenders of Israel such as Jeffrey Goldberg, Michael Oren, Dennis Ross and Benny Morris against the historical record, showing their claims to be increasingly tendentious. As growing numbers of American Jews come to see the speciousness of the arguments behind such apologias and recognize Israel's record as simply indefensible, Finkelstein points to the opening of new possibilities for political advancement in a region that for decades has been stuck fast in a gridlock of injustice and suffering.

Book excerpt: Why does so much of our society look as it did in the past? Our schools,our government, our religious organizations, our media - while more complex, have maintained their general structure and shape. Classroomstructure today, with the exception of a computer or an LCD projector, looks remarkably unchanged: teacher at the front, students i n rows. Our business processes are still built on theories and viewpoints that existed over a century ago (with periodic amendments from thinkers like Drucker 2). In essence, we have transferred (not transformed) our physical identity to online spaces and structures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current environmental crises demand that we revisit dominant approaches for understanding nature-society relations. Narrating Nature brings together various ways of knowing nature from differently situated Maasai and conservation practitioners and scientists into lively debate. It speaks to the growing movement within the academy and beyond on decolonizing knowledge about and relationships with nature, and debates within the social sciences on how to work across epistemologies and ontologies. It also speaks to a growing need within conservation studies to find ways to manage nature with people. This book employs different storytelling practices, including a traditional Maasai oral meeting—the enkiguena—to decenter conventional scientific ways of communicating about, knowing, and managing nature. Author Mara J. Goldman draws on more than two decades of deep ethnographic and ecological engagements in the semi-arid rangelands of East Africa—in landscapes inhabited by pastoral and agropastoral Maasai people and heavily utilized by wildlife. These iconic landscapes have continuously been subjected to boundary drawing practices by outsiders, separating out places for people (villages) from places for nature (protected areas). Narrating Nature follows the resulting boundary crossings that regularly occur—of people, wildlife, and knowledge—to expose them not as transgressions but as opportunities to complicate the categories themselves and create ontological openings for knowing and being with nature otherwise. Narrating Nature opens up dialogue that counters traditional conservation narratives by providing space for local Maasai inhabitants to share their ways of knowing and being with nature. It moves beyond standard community conservation narratives that see local people as beneficiaries or contributors to conservation, to demonstrate how they are essential knowledgeable members of the conservation landscape itself.
