Book excerpt: From the leader of Canada’s New Democratic Party—Jagmeet Singh—comes a personal and heartfelt story about family and overcoming adversity. In October 2017, Jagmeet Singh was elected as the first visible minority to lead a major federal political party in Canada. The historic milestone was celebrated across the nation. About a month earlier, in the lead up to his election, Jagmeet held community meet-and-greets across Canada. At one such event, a disruptive heckler in the crowd hurled accusations at him. Jagmeet responded by calmly calling for all Canadians to act with “love and courage” in the face of hate. That response immediately went viral, and people across the country began asking, “Who is Jagmeet Singh? And why ‘love and courage’?” This personal and heartfelt memoir is Jagmeet’s answer to that question. In it, we are invited to walk with him through childhood to adulthood as he learns powerful, moving, and sometimes traumatic lessons about hardship, addiction, and the impact of not belonging. We meet his strong family, including his mother, who teaches him that “we are all one; we are all connected,” a valuable lesson that has shaped who he is today. This story is not a political memoir. This is a story of family, love, and courage, and how strengthening the connection between us all is the way to building a better world.

Book excerpt: When the Nazi occupation of Rome begins, two courageous young women are plunged deep into the Italian Resistance to fight for their freedom in this captivating debut novel. Rome, 1943 Lucia Colombo has had her doubts about fascism for years, but as a single mother in an increasingly unstable country, politics are for other people--she needs to focus on keeping herself and her son alive. Then the Italian government falls and the German occupation begins, and suddenly, Lucia finds that complacency is no longer an option. Francesca Gallo has always been aware of injustice and suffering. A polio survivor who lost her father when he was arrested for his anti-fascist politics, she came to Rome with her fiancé to start a new life. But when the Germans invade and her fiancé is taken by the Nazis, Francesca decides she has only one option: to fight back. As Lucia and Francesca are pulled deeper into the struggle against the Nazi occupation, both women learn to resist alongside the partisans to drive the Germans from Rome. But as winter sets in, the occupation tightens its grip on the city, and the resistance is in constant danger. In the darkest days, Francesca and Lucia face their pasts, find the courage to love, and maintain hope for a future that is finally free.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes a look at the "old values": unselfishness, loyalty, honesty, forgiveness, and courage. Qualities such as these traditionally have been thought to be the elements of character in a good person. The author believes that this state of "goodness" can be achieved through working at it. His assumption is that goodness can be sought; if one wants to be more loving, and if it is practiced, if it is labored upon, if love is made the focus of life, with certainty one would become more loving.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In a social climate that actually encourages divorce rather than reconciliation, Courage to Love... offers help and hope instead. Building on the experience of Retrouvaille, a successful church-sponsored ministry that is rapidly gaining notice and taking root across North America, it focuses on relationship building. It invites couples to reconciliation, to rebuilding trust, to learning skills necessary for healthy communication, and to growing spirituality through the lived reality of married life. Courage To Love... emphasizes ways to counter cultural trends that are detrimental to permanent marriage and a strong family life while covering such crucial topics as self-awareness, conflict resolution, forgiveness, the stages of a relationship, and intimacy. Each chapter concludes with reflection and sharing questions that encourage dialogue and discussion between spouses." -- from back cover.

Book excerpt: Dr Colm O'Connor, a clinical psychologist and couples therapist, has for over twenty years explored the emotional lives of couples and researched hundreds of cases of couples in distress. Looking beneath the surface of everyday complaints, The Courage to Love reveals those insights and shows how we seek solutions to life's most essential questions in close relationships. It answers common questions that we often ask such as: 'Why do we constantly argue about trivial things?' 'Why do we have to win an argument at all?' 'Why is it that we often forget what it is we end up fighting about?' 'How is it that love can deteriorate into abuse?' In answering these kinds of questions, Dr O'Connor shows what is ultimately at stake for people in winning an argument, starting a fight, proving a point, triumphing in divorce, or abusing a lover, and presents a range of solutions that are not about how to control relationships but how to inhabit them. Painting a dramatic portrait of love as a heroic response to human vulnerability, The Courage to Love shines new light on how relationship breakdown happens and provides a guide for getting back on track.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this unique and provocative look at work, career counselor Rick Jarow argues for a return to the concept of vocation--finding a "calling" instead of a job. Traditional career guides inventory the individual skills, talents, and abilities that correlate to specific existing jobs. Creating the Work You Love presents a unique alternative approach, using self-reflective exercises based on the seven chakras, to help you determine the elements you need to create a life filled with meaning and purpose. Jarow believes that it is possible to live and act from the most authentic part of oursleves, and to express our strongest values, energies, and talents through our work in the world. Concentrating on the attributes associated with each of the body's energy centers, or chakras, Dr. Jarow helps us form a bridge between our personal priorities and the external activities of the work world. Once this bridge is established, strategies are developed to find a career that nourishes all aspects of our lives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In these essays, which were originally delivered as sermons, Coffin argues that religion has fallen on hard times. He offers a cogent means of recovering a faith true to the spirit of the Bible and able to face up to the uncertainties of the present age. Brings essential biblical insights to bear on such issues as arms race, abortion, homosexuality, separation of church and state, communism, the Moral Majority and the true meaning of "Born again." In his vision, the churches can become centers of creative and courageous thinking, and not mere sanctuaries for frustrated men unable to meet the questions of moral and intellectual uncertainty.

Book excerpt: Franklin Roosevelt told us that what we most have to fear is fear itself. Forrest Church shows that we can start to overcome it. He begins by identifying the five kinds we face in life: fright, worry, guilt, insecurity, and dread. Each has its own logic, but their effect singly or collectively is paralysis. Conquering fear requires courage-to love, to act, and to be.
