A year after experiencing what he never thought possiblehis fathers suicideauthor Dylan Dodson had learned many lessons about pain, suffering, and grief. After hearing story after story of others who had been through difficult situations and painful circumstances, he began to realize a few things. He saw how much pain people deal with in their everyday lives. He discovered that many people thought that they were the only ones who experienced those painful emotions in the manner that they did, and that they felt bad because of how they were feeling. But struggling through a hard time does not mean you do not love God and that He does not love you. The emotions that you feel are normal; you were created with the ability to grieve, and it is okay to do so. Pain is real, and so are the feelings that come with it. You are not alone in your suffering; there is nothing wrong with you, and God does not love you any less or any more because of what you have been through. This is not your typical what now book. Rather, it is a real story that you can relate to and understand in your own way. Journey with Dodson as he shares his experiences, and discover what the Bible has to say on true pain, true grief, and a true God. Blog: LookingforPurpose.com

Until the twentieth century, the Western world formulated most Christian theology. Fully grounded in this tradition, Kazoh Kitamori demonstrates its limitations and problems from a Japanese point of view and suggests a fresh approach to the biblical message. Dr. Katamori has developed the þrst original theology from the East. The gospel is the gospel of the cross, he says. God loves the objects of his wrath. What is revealed in the cross is neither the wrath of God alone nor the love of God alone, but the synthesis of the two. The author's purpose is to clarify this synthesis, identiþed as the pain of God. By the theology of the pain of God,Ó he means the theology of love rooted in the pain of God.Ó He brings a new interpretation to this central theme of the Christian faith. Today, Christian thinkers are calling for an ecumenical theology. By helping to renew the faith even as he seeks to reformulate it in non-Western terms, Dr. Kitamori takes an important step toward expanding the dialogue between Christians of the East and West.

In this theatrical suspense of real crisis, this book takes you into the depths and heart of the hurting soul in nine different aspects. Here, you will find that in many cases the tree of the human person that bears certain fruits in their behavior, is a by- product of the seed that was sown in the area of their soul. Seeds of molestation, rape and abuse tend to produce trees that bear fruits of rage, bitterness, rebellion, hate, jealousy and even murder. Those seeds of rejection oftentimes result in trees bearing fruits of distrust, inferiority, low self-esteem and inadequacy. These many issues can be a deteriorating factor in an individual’s life, and can be very destructive to society. However, this book gives the basic foundations upon which one can build by first discovering the remedy for inner healing, then having the opportunity to build on a solid foundation for spiritual, mental, psychological, and emotional growth and development.
