""If it didn't have a beautiful ending, my story would be too painful to tell."" Addicted to alcohol by ten years old, a young girl's life was in shambles. As an adult, she sought relief from personal pain, used street drugs, gambled, and sought love and acceptance through homosexual relationships. Due to abuse from others and her own poor choices, she also suffered from serious health issues. After seeking professional counseling, help from rehab centers, and the use of pharmaceutical drugs, she still felt hopeless. Longing for change and feeling powerless to achieve it, Teri sought God's help as a last resort. She experienced many miraculous changes in her life. Because of God's power, she "turned over a new leaf." Teri Leef is a survivor of childhood abuse, forced addictions, and poor personal choices that were influenced by traumatic childhood experiences. Teri tells her personal story and encourages others to make their way out of brokenness, hurt, and pain. She regularly shares her story of hope and faith. Teri loves reaching out to others through missionary work, both regional and international.
This is the true story of the life-changing experience of a healthy man, who at the age of thirty-six, was diagnosed with the most aggressive type of malignant brain tumour.

Having been given a few months to live, he endured the disturbing challenges of a state hospital, defying all odds with his uncomplaining attitude and positivity. The book emphasises his perseverance through seemingly impossible situations. Despite his deteriorating vision and unremitting headaches, Craig's humour and easy-going manner carried him through three years more than his life expectancy. From the time of diagnosis, he began to live the moment, striving to overcome his affliction. Written by his mother, the story highlights her own sentiments, as she relates her long walk with her son and how she and her husband nursed him through the final months of his life.
The Ancient Sefer Torah of Bologna: Features and History contains studies on the most ancient, complete Pentateuch scroll known to date. It was considered in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance as the archetypal autograph written by Ezra the Scribe. The scroll was rediscovered by Mauro Perani in 2013 at the University Library of Bologna. In this volume, leading specialists study the history, textual and material features, and different halakhot or norms to copy a Sefer Torah, as adopted in the pre-Maimonidean scrolls. The Hebrew text is very close to the Aleppo codex, and the scroll was probably copied in Northern Iberia in ca. 1200 CE. The scroll contains letters with special shapes and tagin linking its production with a Jewish milieu which associated the scribal tradition with mystical and esoteric meanings. Besides its codicological and palaeographical interest, the "Ezra scroll" has been preserved for centuries among the treasures of the Dominican convent of San Domenico in Bologna and, in the early modern period, it was the object of reverence and curiosity among the Christians, before being almost entirely forgotten after its confiscation by the French revolutionary troops. This volume presents a detailed overview of the fascinating history and the peculiar makings of this remarkable artefact.
