Rarely has a spiritual autobiography been so honest in its raw, naked portrayal of the triumphs and the tragedies that minsters and their families endure. From supernatural visions, powerful evangelistic campaigns, and miraculous healings to marriage setbacks, painful church splits, home fires and the tragic, unexpected loss of a child, Geri Coulter shares her dramatic story of God's faithfulness in time of crisis. Your faith will soar as you marvel at God's ability to always deliver, even from some of the most heartbreaking, crushing circumstances known to the human heart.

On the brink of discovering who - or what - lies behind her mother's death, Rosie Frost begins a new adventure with a murder to solve, revenge on her mind, and more questions than she has answers. It's a new term at Heverbridge School and Bloodstone Island is in turmoil: mutant animals are on the loose, jealous classmates want to bring Rosie down, and, even worse, there's a black hole to deal with. Below the island's surface, an everlasting star is growing in strength and it just may end them all. Rosie discovers the northside of the island, home to the alluring Imperium Palace. But is the palace one of scientific genius or deadly menace? While she fights to know the truth about her past - and her family's ancient ties to Bloodstone - Rosie begins to wonder if the price for the truth may be too high. She must discover what she's really made of as a fresh danger puts her new home - and all that she loves - at risk.

Aftershock helps people identify and heal from the often-delayed emotional responses to seemingly ordinary life events like the death of a partner, a chronic illness diagnosis, or getting a new job that can have significant impact on our emotions and overall mental health. You may be at a point in your life where you realise that you have been edgy, a bit depressed, feeling unsettled. Yet everything in your life seems to be okay. You look for a cause, but you just can’t put your finger on it. Perhaps you should examine your recent past—six months ago, a year ago—and ask yourself, "What did I go through that was stressful at the time, yet I was able to deal with by suppressing my stress until that situation was over?" “Aftershock” is a term coined by clinical psychologist Dr. Geri-Lynn Utter, who came to recognise this largely ignored scenario in many of her patients. As a subclinical level of the more familiar post-traumatic stress disorder, “aftershock” may underlie your present emotional stress, a delayed emotional response that affects many of us after common, yet big deal, life events such as miscarriage, moving to a new city, divorce, or, for some people, the Covid-19 pandemic that has rocked much of the world. The most urgent raison d’etre of Aftershock is to enlighten readers to the very presence of this psychological trauma—what it is and what causes it, how to recognise the symptoms, and how to heal when life's stressors keep you in the centre of the aftershock of a storm.

In poems of quiet force, Geri Doran maps the fragility of human connection and the irreducible fact of grief. From the communal ruptures of Chechnya and Rwanda to the personal dislocations that attend great loss, Resin weighs frailty against responsibility, damage against the desires of the heart. For the poet, a factory fire in late-nineteenth-century Portland becomes a tool for precise knowing: ""The phases of wood are a means / of dead reckoning: burn what is built / and gauge your passage / by what is lost."" Even in so quotidian an act as the planting of potatoes, Doran's sure, meticulous, and carefully calibrated lines reveal the intensity of our yearnings: ""What carried us from year to year was yield: / potatoes in, potatoes out, like rowing."" Variously plaintive, passionate, intuitive, and serious, the voice in Resin tells how the natural world, in both its wildness and regularity, expresses and mediates human longing.You entered me like migraine, leftlike migraine a private vacancy.The darkness outside is great and wild.Blue plums falling from an old treedemand we believe in wildness,fallingness. What's the matter is memory,shrivel and tart. How in this sweetaftermath of everything the mindshould settle on plums (blue plums!)is one of the mysteries. That Godand my window-blinds should conspireto refract the light to look like plums.Out in the wild nothing. - from ""Blue Plums
Caring for Patients from Different Cultures

Healthcare providers in the American medical system may find that patients from different cultures bring unfamiliar expectations, anxieties, and needs into the examination room. To provide optimal care for all patients, it is important to see differences from the patient's perspective and to work with patients from a range of demographics. Caring for Patients from Different Cultures has been a vital resource for nurses and physicians for more than twenty years, offering hundreds of case studies that illustrate crosscultural conflicts or misunderstandings as well as examples of culturally competent health care. Now in its fifth edition, Caring for Patients from Different Cultures covers a wide range of topics, including birth, end of life, communication, traditional medicine, mental health, pain, religion, and multicultural staff challenges. This edition includes more than sixty new cases with an expanded appendix, introduces a new chapter on improving adherence, and updates the concluding chapter with examples of changes various hospitals have made to accommodate cultural differences. Grounded in concepts from the fields of cultural diversity and medical anthropology, Caring for Patients from Different Cultures provides healthcare workers with a frame of reference for understanding cultural differences and sound alternatives for providing the best possible care to multicultural communities.
One of the most popular genres created and performed by Medieval troubadours and trouveres was the pastourelle. Though it varied greatly in its details, the genre was dominated by the following theme: a passing knight encounters and attempts to seduce a shepherdess who, in turn, defends herself against his advances in a variety of ways. The brilliance of the artists who manipulated the genre was revealed in their ability to innovate, synthesize, and elaborate upon the constraints of the form. In this work - the first major evaluation of the Northern French pastourelle to appear in decades - Geri Smith examines the genre in the hands of three Medieval masters: Adam de la Halle, Jean Froissart, and Christine de Pizan. She explores the very different ways in which these individuals engaged with the form and subject matter of the pastourelle and transformed it, variously, into a stage for their dramatic artistry, a forum for their responses to social and ideological conditions, and, ultimately, into a distinctive statement bearing their individual mark. The result sheds new light on the evolving concept of author in the Middle Ages.

Geri Scazzero knew there was something desperately wrong with how they were doing their life and ministry. She finally told her husband, 'I quit, ' and left the thriving church he pastored, beginning a journey that transformed her, her marriage, and her church. She quit being afraid of what others think. She quit lying. She quit denying her anger and sadness. She quit living someone else's life. I Quit provides you a way out of an inauthentic, superficial spirituality to genuine freedom in Christ. I Quit is for every person who thinks, I can't keep pretending everything is fine ' When we quit for the right reasons, quitting changes us. Something breaks inside of us when we finally say, 'No more.' But it must be done for the right reasons, at the right time, and in the right way. That's what this book is about
