Synopsis It Shouldn't Be This Way by : Janina Scarlet

Every life-changing experience, be it the loss of a function, a job or a friendship, or the death of a loved one, can be excruciating. Illness can forever alter our life and our abilities.

How can there be? When people hear the word acceptance, they might assume that it means being OK with what happened in the past or with how things currently are. In fact, there is a difference between acceptance and "feeling good" about what happened - acceptance means allowing yourself to feel whatever emotions naturally come up in response to what you are going through. It means acknowledging the reality of the pain, even though in an ideal world, it shouldn't be that way. This therapeutic and comforting self-help guide will help you: · Give yourself the permission to grieve or process events in the way that makes sense to you · To fully experience and accept your feelings of anger, grief, frustration or anxiety · To own your truth, even if it makes others uncomfortable This essential book will teach you to understand and be able to accept the difficult moments and circumstances in your life and make room for how you feel about them. And with this kind of an acceptance, there can be healing.

Synopsis It's Not Supposed to Be This Way by : Lysa TerKeurst

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER What do you do when God’s timing seems questionable, his lack of intervention hurtful, and his promises doubtful? Lysa TerKeurst unveils her heart amid shattering circumstances, inviting you to live assured when life doesn't turn out like you expected. Life often looks so very different than we hoped or expected. Some events may simply catch us off guard for a season, but others shatter us completely. We feel disappointed and disillusioned at best and overwhelmed and hopeless at worst. We quietly start to wonder about the reality of God’s goodness and why he allows us to suffer and experience grief and loss. Lysa TerKeurst understands this deeply. But after many tears, godly counseling, and prayerful seeking, she's also discovered that our disappointments can be the divine appointments our souls need to radically encounter God. In It's Not Supposed to Be This Way, Lysa invites us into her own journey of faith and, with grit, vulnerability, and honest humor, helps us to: Stop being pulled into the anxiety of disappointment by discovering how to better process unmet expectations and other painful situations. Train ourselves to recognize the three strategies of the enemy, so we can stand strong and persevere through unsettling relationships and uncertain outcomes. Discover the secret of being steadfast and not panicking when God actually does give us more than we can handle. Shift our suspicion that God is cruel or unfair to the biblical assurance that God is protecting and preparing us. Know how to encourage a friend and help her navigate hard realities with real help from God's truth, the Bible. Look for additional biblically based resources and devotionals from Lysa: Good Boundaries and Goodbyes Forgiving What You Can't Forget Uninvited You're Going to Make It Embraced Seeing Beautiful Again

Synopsis I Shouldn't Feel This Way by : Alison Cook, PhD

Dr. Alison Cook uncovers the conflicting thoughts and emotions that keep us stuck and teaches us how to name, tame, and transform them into clear solutions that help us move forward in confidence. We all want to live godly lives and navigate through the issues that arise with confidence, but so often we find ourselves wrestling with conflicting thoughts and feelings. I want to be a good daughter, but I can't trust my parent. I should pray more, but I'm frustrated with God. Instead of naming these thoughts and working through them, we try to force ourselves to act based on what we've been told. But this inevitably ends with us feeling stuck, trapped between the people we think we should be and the way we really feel. What if this sidelining of our own thoughts and feelings is what's keeping us stuck? Building on psychological and spiritual insight, Dr. Alison Cook guides us through a practical strategy for acknowledging the tension and seeing the fuller truth. She shows us how to . . . uncover the mixed emotions that keep us confused; distinguish fact from fiction in our relationships; make decisions that account for the entirety of a situation; and start getting honest with ourselves, God, and other people. As we learn to take a step back from our mixed emotions and see the fuller picture of the challenges we face, we stop feeling paralyzed and start seeing our way through the haze, moving forward with clarity and confidence.

Synopsis I Shouldn't Love This Way by : Mina Alexia

Life has never been more complicated for Aria Hunter. Moving from New York to California was supposed to bring her closer to her father, and it had... in all the wrong ways. Being separated from him at birth had damaged any hope for an appropriate relationship to grow. Now at eighteen, she is lost, confused, and more in love with the man who had rescued her from Hell. He came to her as a fallen angel in disguise, but even angels fall from grace. Noah Hunter is a devastatingly handsome cutthroat lawyer with the darkest past. As a man of the law, he is fully aware that the nature of his relationship with Aria is wrong. As he continues his therapy, he finds himself in purgatory and refuses to drag her to Hell with him. In "I Shouldn't Love This Way," the steaming sequel to the successful debut novel, "I Shouldn't Feel This Way," Mina Alexia masterfully weaves the most complicated love story that will touch the hearts of her readers, break them into pieces, and put them back together again.
