Ben Keller knows most of the secrets and sins of the people of Omaha, Nebraska. Growing up in the seventies as a not-quite-Catholic kid in the very Catholic Omaha, Nebraska, Ben Keller bookmarks his world through the music of Sting, the wisdom of Warren Buffett, and the Nebraska Cornhuskers.His neighbors and family anchor him in-what he had thought was-a normal childhood, laced with a suspected boy-stealer, a creepy creek, and a neighborhood witch. After years of helping his single-mother in her basement salon, Ben stumbles into owning his own shop, the Vanity Insanity, a salon with amazingly strange people who had actually made the choice to do hair.The accidental hair stylist finds himself privy to the dreams and dark secrets of those who are making regular appointments to sit in his safe chair. As their lives cross and their hairstyles change over the years, Ben slowly starts to accept that his lot in life must be to carry everyone's sins and burdens so they can feel better about themselves.Ben laughs at the crazy people, makes fun of the city in which he grew up, and calls out the mistakes of the Catholic Church, while at the same time elevating the goodness of all three.Death, a fire, a call from the wacky girlfriend of the father who had abandoned him thirty-five years earlier, and the quiet and gradual intertwining of a few special clients force Ben to slowly peel away at the intense denial of his dreams and his feelings regarding infidelity, forgiveness, and the existence of God.

In this book I present a three step process that will set you up for a quiet night with any child. These three chapters explain how a child responds emotionally and physically to their environment and most importantly to you. The simple solutions presented in this three step process support you and your child in setting you both up for a long and quiet sleep. Really who does not want better sleep and to wake up refreshed each day? It is a biological fact that we and our children are better when we have the sleep we need. We cannot "catch up" on our sleep. What is lost is lost. We are also more prone to accidents when we are sleep deprived and according to the Center for Disease Control in Atlanta, one of the top reasons children die is due to accidents. Don't lose another minute of your or your baby's/child's sleep. If you don't have children this book combined with a gift certificate for my family coaching services will make a great baby shower gift Mary Kay Keller is the author of "Hassle Free Bedtime: Getting any child to bed is as easy as 1-2-3 " and "Buyer's Remorse No More " Her next book is soon to be released, "Life Adjustment: When Life Throws You a Curve Ball Hit It Out of the Park " Mary Kay Keller is a Human Scientist and a TED speaker.

A Path to Belonging

A Path to Belonging

Mary Kay DuChene; Mark Sundby

AUGSBURG FORTRESS PUBLISHERS
2022
pokkari
Loneliness, or the feeling of being cut off from others, is an epidemic among people in America. Studies have shown that up to half of Americans are lonely. While some may think that clergy have a strong built-in community, this is not often the case. According to leadership development consultants Mary Kay DuChene and Mark Sundby, clergy are as lonely as the general population. In A Path to Belonging: Overcoming Clergy Loneliness, DuChene and Sundby argue that clergy need to address their experience of loneliness. First, loneliness can interfere with leadership effectiveness. Second, it offers a ministry opportunity to connect with people around the topic of loneliness. But clergy must first deal with their own loneliness and begin to experience the healing balm of social connection. Each chapter begins with a case study that illustrates an aspect of clergy loneliness. DuChene and Sundby draw on original research on loneliness among clergy across denominations, first administering the state-of-the-art inventory to measure loneliness and then following up with qualitative interviews. They also draw on years of experience working directly with clergy and congregations. The authors then offer tools and remedies for the path toward a healthy sense of contentment and belonging. The book also explores what judicatory leaders, congregations, and friends and family of clergy can do to support clergy. By normalizing and reframing loneliness, however, A Path to Belonging not only suggests ways to overcome the loneliness present in ministry. DuChene and Sundby propose an even larger vision: Perhaps clergy can also help the congregations they serve become social connectors in their communities and thereby begin to solve the epidemic of loneliness in the United States.

Stories that Changed the World: A Humanities Mini Text

Stories that Changed the World: A Humanities Mini Text

The idea of the "story" often conjures up the kinds of tales we encountered as children, ones that swept us away to different times and places, took us on adventures we could never have experienced under the protection of our families. And this may well illustrate the power of the story at its most fundamental level - to transport us out of ourselves, offer us experiences that we may otherwise never have, and allow us to empathize with the characters that have them. Join Dr. Mary Kay Jennings, professor of literature and creative writing, on this adventure through the history of the story from Mesopotamia to the late 20th century in the Humanities Mini Text: Stories that Changed the World. About Humanities Mini Texts A ShortWorks series, Humanities Mini Texts bring readable, pocket-sized presentations of key themes, motifs, and aspects of Western history, culture, art, and literature. These introductory texts offer general discussions on important periods and influences in the great movements of Western culture.
