In this study, Michael Hryniuk develops a full phenomenological, psychological and theological account of spiritual transformation in the context of L'Arche, a federation of Christian communities that welcome persons with learning disabilities. The book begins with a critical examination of current perspectives on spiritual transformation in theology and Christian spirituality and constructs a new, foundational formulation of transformation as a shift in consciousness, identity and behavior. Through extensive analysis of the narratives of the caregiver-assistants who share life with those who are disabled, this case-study reveals an alternative vision of the "three-fold way" that unfolds through a series of profound awakenings in relationships of mutual care and presence: an awakening to the capacity to love, to bear inner anguish and darkness, and to experience radical human and divine acceptance. The book examines the psychological dimensions of spiritual transformation through the lens of contemporary affect theory and explores how care-givers experience a profound healing of shame in their felt sense of identity and self-worth.

Walk Out Of Financial Darkness is a fun and entertaining story that allows you to take a journey with Annie, a young woman not unlike many Americans today. She has maxed-out credit cards, pays bills late because she refuses to open her mail, and feels as if she is drowning where money is concerned. When Annie feels there is no hope left, an unexpected helper named Simon arrives, to teach her ten lessons on basic money management. Instead of lecturing, he creates situations that she must experience. This method will allow Annie, and you, to easily understand how the financial concept works and how it could be applied to your situation. Vanessa Derrico won multiple awards, including First Year Top Achiever, while working as a financial advisor. During that experience, she found her true passion was financial education, not getting a set number of clients or a specific amount of funds to manage. She discovered there were many people who needed help with financial basics. Helping people learn those basic concepts, however, was not the focus of her financial training. Vanessa has met with thousands of individuals since 2005, while facilitating seminars, classes, and one-on-one coaching. She has tested how basic financial concepts work, how to explain them to others and what pitfalls to avoid. All of her experience gained in executing these concepts in her own household and with the people she has helped has gone into creating Walk Out Of Financial Darkness as an easy to read, fun financial book.
