Love's River Never Stops Flowing: Restoring The Hearts of Daughters to The Father - 30-Day Devotional with Letters from The Father
Rachel D. Wright
Independently Published
2020

As believers, we are all children of God through the Spirit of Adoption by which we cry Abba, Father. However, many still live their lives as if they're still slaves by not walking into the fullness of who The Father is and who we are in Him. Wright was taken on a journey where she begins to experience the overwhelming love of the Father. God, through His relentless love, loved her back to Himself by which she was restored to her place as a daughter. And this is her desire for women all over the world. This 30-day devotional was created by using letters from God, our Father, to His daughters in which He shares His heart concerning different areas of our lives in a way that we're all drawn back to Him. "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose." (Romans 8:28) Everything that we encounter in this life, that God allows, points back to His love for us. His love is as a river that never stops flowing, which overwhelms us and draws us into His arms, no matter who we are. In our uniqueness, we are all daughters and the Father is ready to wash away our worries with His rivers of love so that we may live in peace, love, joy, and abundance in Him through all things until eternity.

Fortin's Children's Rights and the Developing Law
Rachel E. Taylor
Cambridge University Press
2024
sidottu
The notion that children constitute an important group of rights holders has gained increasing acceptance both domestically and internationally. Nevertheless, this rhetorical commitment to children's rights is not necessarily realised in practice. Now in its fourth edition, Fortin's Children's Rights and the Developing Law explores the extent to which law and policy in England promotes or undermines the rights of children. Fully revised and updated, this textbook uses current research on child development and welfare to reflect on the extent to which the law fulfils children's rights in a wide range of areas, including medical law, education and child poverty. These developments are measured again the domestic law and the UK's international obligations under, for example, the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.

In this book, Rachel Zuckert provides the first overarching account of Johann Gottfried Herder's complex aesthetic theory. She guides the reader through Herder's texts, showing how they relate to eighteenth- and nineteenth-century European philosophy of art, and focusing on two main concepts: aesthetic naturalism, the view that art is natural to and naturally valuable for human beings as organic, embodied beings, and - unusually for Herder's time - aesthetic pluralism, the view that aesthetic value takes many diverse and culturally varying forms. Zuckert argues that Herder's theory plays a pivotal role in the history of philosophical aesthetics, marking the transition from the eighteenth-century focus on aesthetic value as grounded in human nature to the nineteenth-century focus on art as socially significant and historically variable. Her study illuminates Herder's significance as an innovative thinker in aesthetics, and will interest a range of readers in philosophy of art and European thought.

This book explores the mechanics of storytelling within a study aimed at focusing on a ‘hidden’ population of migrants in the city of York, UK. Taking applied linguistics to mean the consideration of real-world ‘problems’ as identified by a ‘client’, in which the use of (and beliefs about) language is a significant component, the authors describe the benefits and challenges of working in a partnership with a community organisation. With project participants from Africa, Europe, Asia and South and Central America who had lived in York between two and fifty years, the study considers the co-construction of meaning in interviews from a range of practical and theoretical perspectives. The book will be of interest to students, academic researchers and community project leaders who are interested in migration stories and interviews as a method of data collection.
