Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Melanie Gibson was an independent woman with a good job, multiple college degrees, and a condo in the trendy part of town. She also had a few mental illnesses, a minor substance abuse problem, and rotten relationship skills. She was a high-functioning crazy who needed a good kick in the pants, literally and metaphorically. In early 2013, as a last desperate means to save her sanity, Melanie turned to a nearly forgotten childhood activity: the Korean martial art of taekwondo. As if the universe were listening, she discovered her West Texas childhood taekwondo instructors’ Grandmaster operated a taekwondo school a few miles from her home in Fort Worth, Texas—and she decided to start her training over as a white belt. In taekwondo, Melanie felt like she had a fresh start in more ways than one. She found an inner peace she’d never known before, a sense of community, a newfound confidence, and a positive outlook on life. The kicking and screaming she was doing in class quieted the long-term kicking and screaming in her mind. Funny and frank, Kicking and Screaming: A Memoir of Madness and Marital Arts is the story of Melanie’s life-changing journey from troubled, lost soul to confident taekwondo black belt.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first chapters of this handbook deal with the basic reasons why many children raised in church today do not live a Christian life when they become adults, and what can be done about it. This book also covers the effects of our culture on our kids, and what we can do about that. Thirdly, this book contains a lot of practical information concerning communication with kids (including communication with teenagers), discipline of kids, and classroom management. Fundamental differences between effectively working with pre-adolescent children versus effectively working with teenagers are described in detail. Information is provided to help the parent or church worker teach and train kids about a wide range of vital topics, including sex, peer pressure, wisdom, schoolwork, finding a spouse, finances, finding a purpose in life, dealing with anger, and dealing with a culture that does not honor God. Foremost and most importantly, this book is all about helping your kids establish a strong, solid, unshakable relationship with the Living God. This handbook is for anybody who works with boys or girls. It is also for anybody working with teenagers, also known as adolescents or "youth". It is for parents and for those who work with kids but are not parents. This book is for folks with kids born yesterday, for people with kids born 20 years ago, or for anybody who thinks they might be responsible for a kid of some age at sometime in their life. This means that teenagers will benefit from this book! These young people need to see the big picture regarding how adults should relate to children and teenagers. They need to see it now, before they have children of their own. Sales of this book support the ministry of True Life Church, located in Brier Creek, North Carolina. (www.mytruelife.org)

This book was released on 2016-05-11 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A preacher kid’s at a Catholic university, Kevin Lowry settled into a “double major in beer and billiards” soon followed by uncomfortable run-ins with pious students, failing grades, increasing anxiety, a missing night—and the startling realization that some fellow students actually attended Mass the morning after a party instead of sleeping it off. After getting kicked out, Kevin got his act together, got the MBA, and also got the girl. Meanwhile God was working, drawing him to the inevitable conclusion that Catholicism was all true despite his objections. Kevin Lowry’s journey to Catholicism is fascinating, often funny, and demonstrates God’s unfailing, patient love for all of us.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a fully-revised and updated version of the top academic work in forensic psychology. Focussed mainly on the practical aspects of forensics, this volume provides all readers need to know to be effective practioners. Detailed sections cover both civil and criminal forensic practice; forensic report writing; treating mental illness in the incarcerated; andethicsal issues. Contributors are the best-known and most respected practitioners in the field from the US and Canada. All chapters are completely revised from the previous edition, including 6 which have new authors. Forensic psychology is one of the fastest-growing specialties in the field. Its practitioners are able to avoid managed care and structured settings, and they often focus on assessment, rather than long-term treatment of clients. With the growing public interest in all things forensic, most graduate programs in psychology have added at least one course in forensic psychology over the past few years; and more established professionals are entering the field every day.
