Paperback. Etat : Good. When bad things happen to us, we ask the perennial why questions: Why me? Why must I suffer? The saints have taken this plaintive cry and turned it from a wail of despair into a song of blessing. Instead of seeking a universal understanding of suffering, they have taken their own suffering and made it the transformative hallmark of their lives. They have turned their pain from something to be endured into a lesson to be embraced. Popular author Woodeene Koenig-Bricker shows us by the example of the saints how to transform our view of suffering. By considering how the saints dealt with pain, we see how suffering can become not something we must escape but something we can appreciatethe means by which God shapes and forms us. These stories of the saints help us live holy and wholly human lives in, through, and by our suffering.…

Hardback. Etat : Very Good. Inspired by Arthur Ashe's bestselling memoir Days of Grace, a collection of positive, uplifting stories of seemingly small acts of grace from across the sports world that have helped to bridge cultural and racial divides. Like many people of color, James Blake has experienced the effects of racism firsthand--publicly--first at the U.S. Open, and then in front of his hotel on a busy Manhattan street, where he was tackled and handcuffed by a police officer in a case of "mistaken identity." Though rage would have been justified, Blake faced both incidents with dignity and aplomb. In Ways of Grace he reflects on his experiences and explores those of other sports stars and public figures who have not only overcome adversity, but have used them to unite rather than divide, including: Aisam-Ul-Haq Qureshi, a Pakistani Muslim and Amir Hadad, an Israeli Jew, who despite the conflicts of their countries, paired together in the 2002 Wimbledon men's doubles draw. Muhammad Ali, who transcended racism with a magnetic personality and a breathtaking mastery of boxing that was unparalleled. Nelson Mandela, who spent twenty-seven years in prison for his commitment to social reform, peace, and equality yet never gave up his battle to end apartheid--a struggle that led to his eventual freedom and his nation's transition to black majority rule. Groundbreaking tennis legend Arthur Ashe, who was a model of courage, elegance, and poise on the court and off; a gifted player who triumphed in the all-white world of professional tennis, and became one of his generation's greatest players. Weaving together these and other poignant and unforgettable stories, Blake reveals how, through seemingly small acts of grace, we can confront hatred, bigotry, and injustice with virtue--and use it to propel ourselves to greater heights.…

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. It has been said, What a difference a day makes. On Friday, October 19, 2012, after her sleep was abruptly interrupted by a leg cramp, Pamula Yerby-Hammack had no idea that her life as she knew it was about to be changed forever. In the darkness of that fall morning, while collapsing onto her bedroom floor it never entered her mind that she was also plunging headfirst into a world of darkness and sadness. Flying with One Wing: Gods Grace in Our Times of Adversity is her story of struggling with mental illness. It is her story of confusion, panic, fear, sadness, and a test of her faith. It is also a story of finding out the truth, discovering the power of love and family, and the grace of God that never leaves His child alone. The book was birthed in a mental facility while she struggled with the knowledge that she had a mental illness and her story has proved to be a blessing in disguise that teaches that as long as God is the wind beneath you can always fly, even if you have to do it with one wing. …
