You’re only stuck if you stop moving. Pain and regret can
hold us captive. Our past mistakes and trauma tell us to blame
others, feel ashamed, or turn to a temporary fix that often becomes
a permanent escape. By the time Satan whispers we need to dress it
up and call it home, pain is our new normal. Pastor and
motivational speaker Real Talk Kim has a message for us: the pain
might not be our fault, but the healing is our responsibility.
In You Gotta Get Up, Pastor Kim reminds us as only she can
that staying stuck requires as much energy as moving forward. She
explains how to get up and figure out what needs to
change in your life. unpack the messed-up thinking that holds you
back. replace destructive thoughts with God’s truth. stop
bleeding on people who didn’t cut you. stand up just one more
time than you fall down. What will you choose today? The effort to
get moving or the effort to stay stuck? A powerful blend of
biblical wisdom and a loving kick in the pants, You Gotta Get
Up calls you to heal, let go, and get moving . . . because
hope is never too far away.
Find Purpose in Your Pain
Don't allow a season to become your life sentence
Imagine a life in which we literally believe God and take Him at His Word, one in which we let the trials and tribulations that hit us roll off our backs. We look at those trials as a "life college" and learn everything we can through them. We get better, not bitter. When relationships fail, instead of looking at them as our personal failures, we believe rejection is God's protection and that He wanted the people out of our lives.
The points in this book are all about perception shifts--learning how to take the bad and shift it for our good. Everything happens for a reason, so instead of getting mad at God for not healing our marriages, giving us favor with a promotion, or saving us from bankruptcy, let's look at everything we experience as a means of advancement in our lives.
If you want breakthrough, you have to break through!
Most people struggle to assume the best of themselves. And their poor
self-concept is
only made worse by their past mistakes, poor choices, and failures.
Kimberly has
heard the inner voice that continually says, “You can’t.” And she’s
learned how to shut
it up. Known for telling it like it is, Real Talk Kim, as Jones-Pothier
is known,
challenges readers to stare inadequacy in the face and say, “Not
today!” Exposing her
own messes and failures, she leads readers on a journey to overcome the
negative
thinking, fear, loneliness, disappointment, and wrong view of self that
have led to
their feelings of inadequacy so they can walk in the fullness of God’s
purpose for
them.
The enemy is always going to tell people what they can and cannot do.
He’s always
going to play into their fears and regrets. Jones-Pothier reveals the
truths that will
silence the accuser and empower readers to stop being ruled by their
emotions,
make choices from a place of confidence instead of doubt and insecurity,
realize that God’s plan is bigger than their past, reject the labels
others have
placed on them, let God determine who they are, and stop being a victim
and
find the freedom to be themselves. Breakthroughs don’t come without a
fight.
Anyone who wants a breakthrough has to break through—they have to act.
Providing
practical tools that lead to victory, Shut Hell Up shows readers how to
stop seeing
themselves as inadequate and embrace who God says they are. When you
feel not
enough, God says I AM ENOUGH.
This book will help you use what God says about you to fight negative
self-talk
and lies from the enemy.
Despite the appearance of political and military stability,
Egypt may be standing at the edge of a precipice as the state
remains grounded in rigid authoritarianism while the population,
including a struggling civil society, readies itself to make the
leap to democratization. This characterization has far-reaching
implications for relations between citizens and the government, as
well as Egypt's foreign affairs posture, particularly in the Middle
East. State repression of civil, political, and religious actors,
the ineffectual provision of social services, and two religious
divides, between Coptic Christianity and Islam on the one hand, and
secular and conservative Islamic traditions on the other, make for
an incendiary domestic environment. The resulting over-reliance on
security services to quash dissent could result in a population
more amenable to less democratic methods of regime change and/or
the development of stronger linkages between regional Islamist
groups, whether they be political, militant, or some combination
thereof.
"Global Security Watch--Egypt" explores the historical
background that created the current realities in Egypt and examines
the players and events influencing the nation today. It concludes
with a series of recommendations for the Egyptian political
establishment, and for the American government, in the belief that
meaningful political and policy changes in Egypt can lead to an
improvement in human rights, democracy, justice, stability, and
security for Egypt, and an improved partnership between Egypt and
the United States.

their city on fire with civil unrest. Lena has her killer style,
her awesome boyfriend, and a plan. She knows she's going to make it
big. Campbell, on the other hand, is just trying to keep her head
down and get through the year at her new school. When both girls
attend the Friday-night football game, what neither expects is for
everything to descend into sudden mass chaos. Chaos born from
violence and hate. Chaos that unexpectedly throws them together.

view. But none of that matters when the city is up in flames, and
they only have each other to rely on if they're going to survive
the night. This book is perfect for:Sparking conversations about

Japanese and Korean are typologically quite similar languages, and
the linguistic phenomena of the former often hve counterparts in
the latter. These collections from the annual Japanese/Korean
linguistics conference include essays on the phonology, morphology,
syntax, semantics, historical linguistics, discourse analysis,
prosody, and psycholinguistics of both languages. Such comparative
studies deepen our understanding of both languages and will be a
useful reference to students and scholars in either field.
