Paperback. Condizione: Good. When a woman caught in the act of adultery was thrown down at Jesus' feet, the bloodthirsty crowd filled their hands with rocks and demanded she be put to death. That confrontation still reverberates in our lives today. Surely we can relate with the shame of the woman and her exposed sin. Unfortunately, we can also relate with the hypocritical crowd, reveling in the rejection of "the other." But can we fully relate with Christ, the God who intervened to save her?  For those who've become wary of tired and sometimes even offensive Christian dogmatism, Carlos Rodríguez may be the spark that ignites the flames of faith in the true Jesus. He tells it like it is, with a desire to motivate those who feel ready to engage the world around them, not through political or religious agendas, but through grace and love. Drop the Stones invites followers of Jesus to drop their religious rocks, and, with open hands, engage in the rewarding lifestyle of a Jesus-styled love. &nbsp.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Every society must have a system for capturing, storing, and distributing water, a system encompassing both technology and a rationale for the division of this finite resource. Today, people around the world face severe and growing water scarcity, and everywhere this vital resource is ceasing to be a right and becoming a commodity. The acequia or irrigation ditch associations of Taos, Rio Arriba, Mora, and other northern New Mexico counties offer an alternative. Few northern New Mexicans farm for a living anymore, but many still gather to clean the ditches each spring and irrigate fields and gardens with the water that runs through them. Increasingly, ditch associations also go to court to defend their water rights against the competing claims brought by population growth, urbanization, and industrial or resort development. Their insistence on the traditional "sharing of waters" offers a solution to the current worldwide water crisis.…

Esa disposición a sonreír y decir sí cuando, en realidad, quieres decir no. Esa inclinación a cerrar la boca cuando, lo que desearías, es gritar.   Por fin vas a entender por qué sientes la necesidad de que todo el mundo te apruebe y por qué has dejado de seguir tus pasos por cumplir con una mirada ajena.   ¿Qué encontrarás en este libro?   -Anécdotas, experiencias de la autora y situaciones extraídas de casos reales en consulta.   -Ejercicios para entender qué heridas del pasado siguen haciendo ruido en el presente.

Paperback. Condizione: Like New. En la lista de los mejores libros del 2023 de Babelia XXV Premi Llibreter en la categoría de Otras Literaturas «Una prosa inteligente, precisa, sin concesiones». Kirmen Uribe En esta novela hay veranos, cigarrillos, piscinas, hospitales, caballos, azulejos, cemento, arena, cartas, plantas, fuego, vacaciones, amores, mentiras, verdades, vergüenzas. y también alcohol, que lo impregna todo, estropeándolo y deformándolo. Porque el padre es alcohólico. Y ella, la hija de un alcohólico. Pero ¿qué más hay detrás de ese hombre que vendía materiales de construcción y fabricaba muebles reciclando palés? A pesar de haber vivido en la misma casa durante muchos años, padre e hija apenas tienen trato. No se hablan ni se tocan, pero las miradas, los olores y los sonidos les sirven de vínculo. Y el silencio, eso que no se quiere y no se puede decir, es más un campo de batalla que una fortaleza.   En su primera novela, Eider Rodríguez ha recogido los fragmentos de un padre para reconstruir, desde diferentes perspectivas y con un estilo brutal y descarnado, el relato de una familia, de una época y de un lugar, sacando a la luz los cauces subterráneos por los que circulan el amor y la vida dentro de los estrechos márgenes del entorno familiar. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Listed on Babelia's Best Books of 2023 "An intelligent, precise, uncompromising prose." --Kirmen Uribe In this novel, we find summers, cigarettes, pools, hospitals, horses, tiles, cement, sand, letters, plants, fire, vacations, affairs, lies, truths, shame. and alcohol, which impregnates everything, ruins it, and deforms it. Because the father is an alcoholic. And she, the daughter of an alcoholic. But what else is there behind this man who sells construction materials and makes furniture recycling pallets? Although they have lived in the same house for many years, father and daughter barely see each other. They don't speak nor touch each other; but the looks, smells, and sounds, act as liaisons between them. And the silence, all one cannot and will not say, is more a battlefield than a fortress.   In her first novel, Eider Rodríguez has gathered fragments of a father to rebuild the story of a family, a time and a place from different perspectives with a brutal, discarnate style. The author brings to light the underground flow where love and life travel inside the narrow margins of a familial setting. …
