    Paperback. Condizione: Good. Learning to become a man without a man to show him how. This is the life story of Andre Harrison, pastor, youth advocate and a father of three boys. Millions of children in the world today are growing up without the active presence of a father. Whether it is due to his demanding work schedule, his criminal behavior or his own cowardice, he is absent from the home. Studies have shown that fatherlessness is an epidemic that affects the social and psychological development of children, most particularly male children. In this book, Harrison poses the question: When a young man is raised without a man, how will he learn to become a man? Written from a refreshing, first-person perspective, From a Fatherless Father to his Sons is more than a memoir of Harrison's struggle to achieve manhood for himself in the face of such odds, it is a how-to manual for the fatherless. In it, are life lessons about faith, sex, integrity and many other nuggets of wisdom that all boys should know, but - sadly - most fatherless boys don't. Harrison offers readers practical steps for becoming a man even in the absence of one. Whether you are a young man, single mom or a father trying to rebuild a relationship with your son this book will be a help to you. Charles, Katrina K (illustratore).…

    Hardback. Condizione: Good. Kids ask the darndest questions--and the answers make for a funny and fascinating(Publishers Weekly) book. Wendell Jamieson's son, Dean, has always had a penchant for asking odd questions. Dad, what would hurt more--getting run over by a car, or getting stung by a jellyfish? Dad, why do policemen like donuts? Dad, does Mona Lisa wear shoes? Because Dad is a newspaperman and city editor for The New York Times, he decided to seek out the real answers to Dean's questions from top experts--movie directors and ship captains, brain surgeons and stabbing victims, a Buddhist monk and a bra fitter, and even Yoko Ono. Their father-son journey for answers to the tough--and weird--questions of life is a sometimes surprising, often hilarious, and always fascinating celebration of the value and beauty of childlike curiosity.

    Hardback. Condizione: Fair. An inspiring memoir about a father and son entering World's Toughest Race: Eco-Challenge Fiji despite one of them battling Alzheimer's. "Travis and Mace have touched a generation of families around the world with their courage, resilience and kindness." --Bear Grylls, star of Man vs. Wild and host of World's Toughest Race: Eco-Challenge Fiji "Watching Mark and Travis Macy compete together for Eco-Challenge Fiji was a true inspiration. Travis's selfless act of taking his father on what may be his last race is a story that anyone can relate to and what we need more of these days." --Mark Burnett, chairman of MGM Worldwide Television Group; creator and producer of Survivor, The Apprentice, and World's Toughest Race: Eco-Challenge Fiji In October 2018, Mark "Mace" Macy, sixty-four years old, was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's disease. Mace had spent thirty years competing in Colorado and around the world in ultra-endurance competitions and is one of the few people who have finished all eight Eco-Challenge events. Once diagnosed, Mace feared losing endurance, strength, and independence. Mace's son Travis, also a professional endurance athlete, also struggled to see his father battling the disease. In 2019 they decided to participate in World's Toughest Race-a seven-day, grueling 400-mile marathon of trekking, climbing, biking, and paddling through the jungle-for one final race together. Weaving excerpts from Mace's passionate personal journals alongside a first-person narrative by Travis, A Mile at a Time tells the story of this incredible journey and what both father and son learned along the way. A powerful story about living-and thriving-with a disease that impacts nearly six million Americans. This timely, and deeply moving father-son adventure sheds light on the hard truths of this disease while giving readers hope of all that still can be achieved. …

    Paperback. Condizione: Good. The Bible tells us again and again that we are children of God, but for many, the idea of God the Father is confusing at best and painful at worst.Not Forsaken introduces readers to a God who desperately wants to know them and be the healing, steadfast presence in their life they may be missing.What makes us feel forsaken by God? Is it because we feel broken and unworthy of God's love? Maybe we've suffered deep wounds from those who were supposed to love us unconditionally. Bestselling author and pastor Louie Giglio shines a light on how flawed relationships of our past can ultimately affect how we see God - and ourselves. What do you think of when you think about God? What do you think God thinks about you?The answers to these questions inform everything about who you are and who you are becoming. It is vital we understand this; because if we have a flawed view of God, we'll have a flawed view of our own life story.To live fully and embrace all that God has for us, we must understand who He is, free from the baggage we have accumulated over a lifetime of broken relationships with broken people.You are what God says you are. Beautiful. Valuable. Whole.Order Not Forsaken right now, and begin your journey toward understanding what it means to find your identity in Christ and a relationship with a Father in heaven who loves you.In Not Forsaken, my friend, Pastor Louie Giglio brilliantly and beautifully helps us form a freeing, scriptural image of God. Don't put this important and timely resource down.- David Crowder Grammy-nominated artist, musician, and author.…

    Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. #1 New York Times bestseller "A brilliant, harrowing, heartbreaking, fascinating story, full of beautiful moments and hard-won wisdom. This book will save a lot of lives and heal a lot of hearts." -- Anne Lamott What had happened to my beautiful boy? To our family? What did I do wrong? Those are the wrenching questions that haunted David Sheff's journey through his son Nic's methamphetamine addiction and tentative steps toward recovery. Before Nic became addicted to crystal meth, he was a charming boy, joyous and funny, a varsity athlete and honor student adored by his two younger siblings. After meth, he was a trembling wraith who lied, stole, and lived on the streets. As a father grappling with his son's drug abuse, David Sheff traces the first warning signs: the denial, the three a.m. phone calls--is it Nic? the police? the hospital? His preoccupation with Nic became an addiction in itself. But as a journalist, he instinctively researched every treatment that might save his son. And in this unforgettable family memoir, he refused to give up on Nic. "'When one of us tells the truth, he makes it easier for all of us to open our hearts to our own pain and that of others.' That's ultimately what Beautiful Boy is about: truth and healing." -- Mary Pipher, author of Reviving Ophelia "Filled with compelling anecdotes and important insights . . . An eye-opening memoir." -- Washington Post This is the true story of a father's journey through the agonizing reality of his son's drug addiction--a gripping, firsthand account of a familyTested by one of the toughest challenges a parent can face. A Harrowing Transformation: Witness the heartbreaking descent of a charming, joyous honor student into a life on the streets, driven by a devastating addiction to crystal meth. A Father's Unconditional Love: Follow David Sheff's relentless search for answers and treatment, a journey fueled by a refusal to give up on his son, no matter how dire the circumstances. Parenting an Addict: Experience the raw, eye-opening account of a parent's helplessness, denial, and fierce determination in the face of a child's spiraling substance abuse. An Unforgettable Family Memoir: More than a story of addiction, Beautiful Boy is a deeply moving portrait of a family's pain, resilience, and ultimate hope for recovery. …
