"When you hear Joyce speak, it's as if each word is about to burst forth in a melody of joy. You feel that melody as you read her book, too. Joy Juice will encourage you and make you want the contagious joyful spirit she has because of Jesus." B J Funk, author of The Dance of Life "It's no wonder that Joyce would write on the subject of biblical joy. It exudes from her life, and she has put her journey into words so that we can also discover and maintain a life of joy." Micca Campbell, author of An Untroubled Heart Joyce Ashley is a retired teacher/school counselor who felt led by God to pursue a ministry that would spread a double portion of His joy into the lives of others. JoyJoy Ministries reaches out to women of all ages who are seeking peace and joy. An expansion of her ministry is a daily radio program called "JOY JUICE". The program was so well received that God touched Joyce's heart to put some of the devotional messages into book form...thus Joy Juice, the book was birthed. Married for 37 years to her high school sweetheart, mother of three and grandmother of three +, Joyce has a passion for helping women to become all that God created them to be. Her speaking and teaching ministry emphasizes the importance of a personal relationship with Christ and trusting Him regardless of daily circumstances. Only then can we become the joyful Christian that can "rejoice in the Lord always". Joyce and her husband, Patrick, live in Wray, Georgia and are active members of Eastside Baptist Church of Douglas, GA. She praises God for this season of life and the opportunities for ministry He has given her.

The Gothic in Contemporary British Trauma Fiction
Ashlee Joyce
Springer Nature Switzerland AG
2019
sidottu
This book examines the intersection of trauma and the Gothic in six contemporary British novels: Martin Amis’s London Fields, Margaret Drabble’s The Gates of Ivory, Ian McEwan’s Atonement, Pat Barker’s Regeneration and Double Vision, and Kazuo Ishiguro’s Never Let Me Go. In these works, the Gothic functions both as an expression of societal violence at the turn of the twenty-first century and as a response to the related crisis of representation brought about by the contemporary individual’s highly mediated and spectatorial relationship to this violence. By locating these six novels within the Gothic tradition, this work argues that each text, to borrow a term from Jacques Derrida, “participates” in the Gothic in ways that both uphold the paradigm of “unspeakability” that has come to dominate much trauma fiction, as well as push its boundaries to complicate how we think of the ethical relationship between witnessing and writing trauma.

What if you stopped viewing creativity as a selfish act, and started to see it as essential to your own flourishing as a mother?

"The out of the way places," Rod Serling called them, those tiny hamlets and villages that dot the landscape of the endless fields of flyover country, their subsistence and survival a matter of consequence only to their own inhabitants. Ashley, Kansas, was one of those places, forgotten, inconsequential, not even a speck on the map, its very existence a question mark in the first place, but a gateway to the boundless possibilities of a million universes.
