Handle any crisis situation with the help of this practical, nuts-and-bolts guide. A GUIDE TO CRISIS INTERVENTION, 6th Edition covers the fundamentals of situational and developmental crises, how they occur and how you can manage them.
Author Kristi Kanel discusses traditional counseling models as they relate to crisis intervention, and shows how they're incorporated into her ABC Model of Crisis Intervention--which you can use in any mental health setting with anyone in crisis. Examples illuminate the psychological and behavioral dynamics associated with crisis situations.
Cases and scripts help you learn exactly what to say to clients, whether the crisis is developmental; related to trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), substance abuse or other factors; or arises from personal victimization.
You'll also learn how to conduct suicide assessments and mental status exams.

The NIV Verse Mapping Bible for Girls helps girls 8 and up get real
about studying God’s Word. Using a unique system designed by author and
ministry leader Kristy Cambron, girls will compare Bible translations,
pick out meaningful words, and explore Hebrew or Greek word
definitions. Verse mapping doesn’t have to be complicated. Any girl can
use this system to see just how real and relevant the Word of God is in
her daily life.
A wonderful way for parents and daughters to dig deeper into God’s Word
together, the NIV Verse Mapping Bible and NIV Verse Mapping Bible for
Girls give readers the Bible study tools they need to better understand
Scripture. Girls will find verse maps partially completed with a
preselected verse in multiple Bible translations to help them begin
their Bible study journey.
Verse mapping involves five steps:
• Choose: Pick a verse and write it out.
• Compare: Record this verse from two or three other Bible translations
and underline key words which are the same or different between
translations.
• Research: Look up the Hebrew or Greek meaning for the underlined
words and record it.
• Consider: Use the senses to uncover new meaning in the verse: What
would it look, feel, smell, taste, or sound like to have experienced
what’s happening? Read the verses surrounding this verse. Use other
study tools to dig even deeper, if you prefer.
• Apply: What is God saying to you? How can you apply this verse to
your life today?

If you've ever taken a personality test, you may have found
yourself in enthusiastic agreement about the positive aspects of
your personality, while the less desirable traits listed may have
made you a bit defensive. Maybe you read up on a different
personality type and wished you had more of those qualities. But
the truth is, every type can get stuck in unhealthy emotional and
spiritual patterns. And no matter what your personality, you have
the potential to grow into the healthiest and most loving version
of yourself. In Healthy Feelings, Thriving Faith, Drs. Bill and
Kristi Gaultiere use the Enneagram to lead you through a journey of
discovery, showing you how God can transform unhealthy patterns of
anger, shame, anxiety, and sadness into freedom, joy, peace, and
love. Through eye-opening insights, engaging stories, and simple
soul care practices and spiritual disciplines, this book offers an
avenue to renewed hope and personal growth you may not have thought
possible. If you want to go from knowing your personality type to
growing in wholeness, empathy, and faith, let the Gaultieres be
your guide.

A tenant farmer’s son had no business daring to dream of a future with
an earl’s daughter, but that couldn’t keep Amos Darby from his secret
friendship with Charlotte Terrington…until the reality of the Great War
sobered youthful dreams. Now decades later, he bears the brutal scars
of battles fought in the trenches and their futures that were stolen
away. His return home doesn’t come with tender reunions, but with the
hollow fulfillment of opening a bookshop on his own and retreating as a
recluse within its walls.
When the future Earl of Harcourt chose Charlotte to be his wife, she
knew she was destined for a loveless match. Though her heart had chosen
another long ago, she pledges her future even as her husband goes to
war. Twenty-five years later, Charlotte remains a war widow who divides
her days between her late husband’s declining estate and operating a
quaint Coventry bookshop—Eden Books, lovingly named after her grown
daughter. And Amos is nothing more than the rival bookseller across the
lane.
As war with Hitler looms, Eden is determined to preserve her father’s
legacy. So when an American solicitor arrives threatening a lawsuit
that could destroy everything they’ve worked so hard to preserve,
mother and daughter prepare to fight back. But with devastation wrought
by the Luftwaffe’s local blitz terrorizing the skies, battling
bookshops—and lost loves, Amos and Charlotte—must put aside their
differences and fight together to help Coventry survive.
From deep in the trenches of the Great War to the storied English
countryside and the devastating Coventry Blitz of World War II, The
British Booksellers explores the unbreakable bonds that unite us
through love, loss, and the enduring solace that can be found between
the pages of a book.

An eye-opening account of the perils of America's techno-spy empire
Ever since the earliest days of the Cold War, American intelligence
agencies have launched spies in the sky, implanted spies in the
ether, burrowed spies underground, sunk spies in the ocean, and
even tried to control spies' minds by chemical means. But these
weren't human spies. Instead, the United States expanded its reach
around the globe through techno-spies. Nothing Is Beyond Our Reach
investigates how America's technophiles inadvertently created a
global espionage empire: one based on technology, not land. Author
Kristie Macrakis shows how in the process of staking out the globe
through technology, US intelligence created the ability to collect
a massive amount of data. But did it help? Featuring the sites
visited during her research and stories of the people who created
the techno-spy empire, Macrakis guides the reader from its
conception in the 1950s to its global reach in the Cold War and
Global War on Terror. In an age of ubiquitous technology, Nothing
Is Beyond Our Reach exposes the perils of relying too much on
technology while demonstrating how the US carried on the tradition
of British imperial espionage. Readers interested in the history of
espionage and technology as well as those who work in the
intelligence field will find the revelations and insights in
Nothing Is Beyond Our Reach fascinating and compelling.
