Shame has been called the most unendurable of sentiments. Shame hurts so much that we do everything we can to stop the pain and to keep other people from realizing that we have it. The cover-ups we use end up hurting other people and can be the root cause of marital breakups, workplace conflicts, racial tensions, and church splits. In contrast to guilt, which can lead to repentance and reconciliation, shame leads to isolation and continuing problems. Everyone feels shame from time to time, but some people live with it constantly. Whether you yourself have felt the pain of shame or whether you would like to reach out to someone who does, you need to find out how to recognize shame and how to apply the solution that God has provided in Christ. "Lift Up Your Head" can help you discover what may be happening
behind the masks. At the end of each chapter are questions for
reflection to help you digest what you have read. The questions can
also be used for small-group discussion. "Carolyn Kerr's book, "Lift Up Your Head: Joy in the Face of
Shame" is outstanding It deals with an important and difficult
topic which is too often neglected both in the church and in the
secular world. Kerr points out how debilitating yet how common
shame is. This is an essential work for pastors, therapists,
counselors and anyone who has ever been made to feel
ashamed."
You will enjoy the stories you are about to read.....David Kerr has a wholesome, mischievous humor with a creative insight reminiscent of those early homemade philosophers........I'm sure that Will Rogers, Mark Twain, and other names are familiar to you still. DuWayne Furman, Ph.D. Human Growth and Development University of Nebraska "(More Tales of the Strange and Wonderful) cannot really be placed in any particular genre. it is a fascinating combination of local folklore, true stories (many from David's youth in Huntsville), interspersed with Bible stories and parables told and spun from a slightly different perspective.

What is depression? An "imagined sun, bright and black at the same time?" A "noonday demon?" In literature, poetry, comics, visual art, and film, we witness new conceptualizations of depression come into being. Unburdened by diagnostic criteria and pharmaceutical politics, these media employ imagery, narrative, symbolism, and metaphor to forge imaginative, exploratory, and innovative representations of a range of experiences that might get called "depression." Texts such as Julia Kristeva's Black Sun: Depression and Melancholia (1989), Andrew Solomon's The Noonday Demon (2000), Allie Brosh's cartoons, "Adventures in Depression" (2011) and "Depression Part Two" (2013), and Lars von Trier's film Melancholia (2011) each offer portraits of depression that deviate from, or altogether reject, the dominant language of depression that has been articulated by and within psychiatry. Most recently, Ann Cvetkovich's Depression: A Public Feeling (2012) has answered the author's own call for a multiplication of discourses on depression by positing crafting as one possible method of working through depression-as-"impasse." Inspired by Cvetkovich's efforts to re-shape the depressive experience itself and the critical ways in which we communicate this experience to others, Re/Imagining Depression: Creative Approaches to "Feeling Bad" harnesses critical theory, gender studies, critical race theory, affect theory, visual art, performance, film, television, poetry, literature, comics, and other media to generate new paradigms for thinking about the depressive experience. Through a combination of academic essays, prose, poetry, and interviews, this anthology aims to destabilize the idea of the mental health "expert" to instead demonstrate the diversity of affects, embodiments, rituals and behaviors that are often collapsed under the singular rubric of "depression."
Walking in the Word is a practical, yearlong devotional to use many times over or share with family members or friends. You may not always agree, but you'll always be stimulated to think about what God's Word has to say to that part of your life being addressed.

A landmark book that reveals, celebrates, and advocates for the special minds and contributions of visual thinkers. A quarter of a century after her memoir, Thinking in Pictures, forever changed how the world understood autism, Temple Grandin— “an anthropologist on Mars,” as Oliver Sacks dubbed her—transforms our awareness of the different ways our brains are wired. Do you have a keen sense of direction, a love of puzzles, the ability to assemble furniture without crying? You are likely a visual thinker. With her genius for demystifying science, Grandin draws on cutting-edge research to take us inside visual thinking. Visual thinkers constitute a far greater proportion of the population than previously believed, she reveals, and a more varied one, from the photo-realistic “object visualizers” like Grandin herself, with their intuitive knack for design and problem solving, to the abstract, mathematically inclined “visual spatial” thinkers who excel in pattern recognition and systemic thinking. She also makes us understand how a world increasingly geared to the verbal tends to sideline visual thinkers, screening them out at school and passing over them in the workplace. Rather than continuing to waste their singular gifts, driving a collective loss in productivity and innovation, Grandin proposes new approaches to educating, parenting, employing, and collaborating with visual thinkers. In a highly competitive world, this important book helps us see, we need every mind on board.
