Book Description :

The importance of moving toward a national policy to end homelessness is crucial. In this striking examination of the roles that homeless people and the U.S. government play in causing and curtailing the escalating phenomena of homelessness, Edna Molina-Jackson asserts that there is a great need to alter the socio-economic structures that generate extreme and entrenched forms of poverty that lead to homelessness. Homeless Not Hopeless explores the role social networks play in the daily survival of homeless Latino and African American men. Using a qualitative research design, author Molina-Jackson observes how these men initiate, participate in, and maintain social networks and how these networks function. The findings support a more empowering view of homeless men as active, rational, and competent actors engaged in negotiating their social world. Members rely on social networks composed of a hierarchy of casual and intimate affiliations. The networks of Americanized Latinos and African Americans facilitate their integration into a subculture of street life, while those of recent-immigrant Latinos revolve around their struggles to find work, avoid deportation, and enlist the support of paisanos.

Book Description :

Knight wanted. Must have shiny armor and own horse, preferably white. When it comes to romance, are magic, fireworks, and a dashing knight in shining Armani really too much to ask? Apparently so, since Kate Hetherington has yet to find an appropriate mate in all of London. Her lifelong friends (and confirmed pragmatists) Sally and Tom tease her endlessly about her hopeless romanticism. But Kate knows that she’s right to want her own fairy tale. After stumbling upon an old tome titled The Hopeless Romantic’s Handbook, Kate decides to give its advice a whirl. Incredibly, the book lives up to its money-back guarantee, because before Kate can say “Cinderella” she meets Joe Rogers, a drop-dead-gorgeous American actor. Frankly, he’s perfect–and Kate thinks she might have finally found The One. He certainly has the muscles required to sweep her off her feet. But Sal and Tom are less thrilled with Kate’s dreamboat. Are they just jealous, or do they know something about love that isn’t in Kate’s handbook? Kate’s pretty sure that finding true love isn’t supposed to alienate you from your friends, but what she doesn’t know is that her real knight is still waiting for her–and he’s closer than she ever imagined.

Book Description :

Confounding Medical Consensus, an 81-year-old hatha yoga master, whom a surgical error rendered a quasi-quadriplegist, and who was told independently by three doctors that he would never walk again, WALKS in 8 Months! A Triumph of Therapy; A Triumph of Faith! Until I directly confronted the Health Care Provider Medical Director at the Hebrew Home, for 10 weeks I was flailing against lengthening shadows of ignorance of my truly hopeless condition because my surgeon chose to violate his legal requirement to tell me my physical condition. Is this affliction a punishment from God? Can I, who have delivered many Prophetic Messages to meet many concrete needs of many people at four different churches in Asia and America over 60 years, ask God for a Prophecy of Healing? Will God find me Faithless if I don't take literally Prophecy I &/Or II regarding my healing? In the second week of my stay at Hebrew Home of Greater Washington, D.C, the Health Care Provider Medical Director decided to discharge me around September 30. Two fundamental miracles had to occur to void the imminent discharge. I sketch the Herculean efforts to re-create 23 functionalities beginning with the likes of crawling: (1) Crawl -> (2) Kneel -> (3) Scoot -> (4) Stand -> (5) Transfer -> (6) Walk. The re-creation of functionalities takes place within the certainty of the date of my death, known since 1979 at age 49, which assures me that the quadriplegia is not unto death. I have confounded medical consensus that I will never walk again, thanks to the faith of several communities continually praying for my recovery-the faith creating and consummating the miracle of a quasi-quadriplegist walking in 8 months, rapidly progressing to walking 3 miles a day unassisted.

Book Description :

After receiving a certain and imminent death sentence from untreatable cancer on Christmas Eve, I was faced with absolute hopelessness. Only in desperation could I find the understanding I needed to witness a season of miracles and intimacy with a God that I took for granted so many years. Within this book are the events and newfound realities that broke the grip of a cancer which had never been beaten by medical science, and the invaluable life lessons birthed in moments of intimacy with the Holy Spirit during that battle. I truly believe there is something for everyone contained within. Miracles are the very glue of the Bible. The miracle of creation opens the book, followed by a multitude of examples of our Heavenly Father intervening supernaturally for His people, all the way to the return of our Savior. Unless God has changed, a concept both the Scripture and theology vehemently reject, miracles are still available and prevalent today. Why are you not seeing the supernatural in your life? Why does fear have such a strong grip on you? What can you do to change those truths? The answers are found within.

Book Description :

One of the greatest hurts that can ever be experienced is living without hope. Hope is the spiritual force that keeps us moving forward. It fills each day with anticipation, excitement, and joy. With hope, there is life, but when hope is stolen and our dreams are crushed, we are left with emptiness. Hopelessness brings the pain of loneliness and despair. The feeling of failure becomes almost unbearable. The Bible says hope deferred makes the heart sick. However, there is hope for your life. You can break free from the heaviness and fog that is trying to pull you into darkness. Like sunshine flooding a room when the curtains are pulled back, hope will flood your soul and you will see the possibilities that the light exposes when you discover the truth that has been hidden from you.
