The Scriptures states In Ephesians 4:4 "There is one body and one spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called, one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all" NIV Holy bible. Where and how did there become so many avenues to faith, God, and or religion? The answer is man and where man resides so does instability, motives, power, opinions, beliefs and so on. Christians everywhere must have and allow God and his word to be the final authority on all matters as it pertains to following God and so should this lost world. You will read in this book how powerful, accurate and divine the word of God is in the first chapter, then you'll be able to make a much more credible decision whether to obey it or not. My prayer is that you choose to obey it and claim it as it is the word of God. The bible describes the word of God as "living and active, sharper than a doubled edge sword able to penetrate the dividing soul and spirit joints and marrow and that it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart" NIV Holy bible. Once we understand and trust the word of God and the flawlessness of its origin, we will be more convinced and confident in our obedience to the word. God loves us so much that he made things extremely simple one way, not hundreds of ways scattering many followers. This is the plan of the lawless one, Satan who takes any opportunity he can to cause disunity and division. However; man in his efforts to rebel and resist the power and authority of the word of God, now look at the state of the world. This book is only a tool to restore such order, but it needs your heart and conviction to be willing and courageous enough to follow it. Acts 17:10 "Now the Bereans were of more noble character than the Thessalonians for they examined the Scriptures everyday to see if what Paul said was true" NIV Holy bible. You are expected to become a Berean in character, a student of God's word, taking no one's word on anything but, researching and studying out the mysteries of God for yourself. Then you will no longer be like children misled blowing like the wind into any and every kind of teaching that exist under the sun. Your confidence will increase; your hope blossom and your certainty in God's plan will provide the clarity only others wish they had.

Self-Defense Guide: Proven Survival Skills and Techniques For Women Welcome to Self Defense Skills and Techniques for Women, a no nonsense guide to both avoiding possible confrontations and handling yourself when you do have to confront assailants. Now more than ever, women find that they are still victims to easily avoidable situations and individuals who prey on the unsuspecting. This book is designed to help make sure women have a harder to falling in the category of prey for a mindless creaton. In the first chapter, we'll cover the facts about self defense that many seem to bypass in the thrill of learning to defend oneself, such as: Self defense is often meant for one attacker and should be a last resort when it comes to facing a crowd of assailants. Not all self defense is justified, especially if it ends in the life of another person. What you say and do before meeting an assailant really does matter and avoiding certain habits may allow you to avoid an attack altogether. This is just to set the tone of self defense and provide some techniques you can do to avoid getting into a situation rather than having to deal with the situation. After all, assailants attack easy prey a good portion of the time so not providing the image of being easy prey is essential to avoiding a conflict. The second chapter will cover "1-shot defenses", which are techniques that require only one successful shot in order to deter attackers. Until an attacker is all the way in a fight, they are usually not sure if they want to continue an attack or not. By using one attack to drop them down to being vulnerable, you can easily deter oncoming assailants. In the third chapter, we'll cover techniques you can use to either attack from behind or handle being attacked from behind. Your back is one of the most vulnerable spots on the body so if you can protect it then you can usually endure your way through a lengthy fight. The fourth chapter is all about handling individuals who are bigger than you and use this to their advantage. Being big certainly has advantages, but it has a lot more disadvantages in the long run. The last chapter is the last resort chapter, which is where you will learn deadly techniques, such as: Stopping a heart with a knee Breaking a neck using your body Shoving the bone from the nose into your assailant's brain Needless to say, the last chapter truly is a last resort. All of this is to make sure that when you, or a woman that you know is attacked, they can fully defend themselves on the spot without requiring additional help.

In this innovative book, master clinician Michael Garrett shows how to weave together cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and psychodynamic therapy to support the recovery of persons suffering from psychosis. This integrated framework builds on the strengths of both methods to achieve lasting gains, even for patients with severe, chronic mental illness. The therapist is guided to use CBT to help the patient recognize the literal falsity of delusions, while employing psychodynamic strategies to explore the figurative truth and personal meaning of psychotic symptoms. Extended case presentations and numerous clinical vignettes illustrate Garrett's compassionate, empowering approach.
