    In homes and school communities nationwide, there is re-energized interest in the values of community, compassion, and tolerance, and in finding our way to a kinder culture - a culture that starts with our families. Headlines speak of hate crimes, intolerance, and us-versus-them divisiveness.Recent political events have left many Americans yearning for unity, respect, and compassion in our national discourse. In our schools, bullying continues to be a pervasive problem, and in our homes, "screen-time" poses a constant threat to "family time". Research shows that connection and social engagement are key to successful, fulfilling lives, and yet we have never been less connected than we are now.Perhaps more than any other group, parents recognize the potential damage of this trend. Children who are raised in a culture where giving and compassion are valued become happier and more positively engaged with those around them. They are less likely to treat others disrespectfully. With increased concern about meanness and bullying, you may be among the many parents who see the need for more civil, respectful, and considerate behavior among our children.The Kindness Advantage is a practical and concrete guide for you to equip your child with the skills they need to have a positive influence on the world. We all benefit when children are raised with the understanding that they can have an impact by making conscious choices. It's never too early to start your child on a path of fulfillment through meaningful connection with others.Designed to be listened to by with children as young as four, the audiobook presents ten fundamental concepts to weave into your family's daily life. Using text, quotes, questions and real life stories, The Kindness Advantage is the first audiobook parents need to think about and teach the necessary skills to be a kind, compassionate person. Each idea on its own is simple and unintimidating, yet togeth ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Leanne Bennet. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/240720/bk_acx0_240720_sample.mp3.

    Cognitive Faith: Science, Religion, God and You , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 278min
    What if you found a version of faith in God that did not ask you to deny scientific truths or to blindly accept as true what you consider frankly impossible?Sue Sorensen has walked the path of a seeker of faith, through the dark alleys of addiction and recovery, and has wrestled with the troubling questions that arise from a religion vs. science viewpoint. Sorensen has taken on what many people face but choose to ignore - mostly because they have no way to deal with the contradictions and so just live with them. Sorensen has had a successful career in business as a learning and development professional and has presented numerous business courses on a wide variety of topics, including emotional intelligence, critical thinking, and problem-solving.Cognitive Faith provides an approach to faith for those who:Have discarded any version of faith in God or found a religion to lack credibilityAre realists, nerds, or hopeless skeptics who nevertheless like to read intellectually challenging propositionsHave explored self-help and made progress but are looking to accelerate their personal growth and developmentAre troubled and need some help with finding the strength to changeCourageously written, Cognitive Faith challenges and disputes some of the central premises of religious faith, including most religious lore, and religious morality and behavioral dictates. With pointed rebukes for the regrettably common inclination toward irrational thinking, in our personal lives, in our spiritual lives, and in current political and social systems, this audiobook nevertheless blazes a path for a modern-day rational, cognitive version of empowering faith.From brontosaurs to bosons, from afterlife to daily life, from miracles to meanness, and from Pascal’s Wager to present-day politics. If belief in God is to remain relevant in today’s world, a new version of faith is required. Get you ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Becky Parker.

    Sticks and Stones: Defeating the Culture of Bullying and Rediscovering the Power of Character and Empathy , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 658min
    Being a teenager has never been easy, but in recent years, with the rise of the Internet and social media, it has become exponentially more challenging. Bullying, once thought of as the province of queen bees and goons, has taken on new, complex, and insidious forms, as parents and educators know all too well. No author is better poised to explore this territory than Emily Bazelon, who has established herself as a leading voice on the social and legal aspects of teenage drama. In Sticks and Stones, she brings listeners on a deeply researched, clear-eyed journey into the ever-shifting landscape of teenage meanness and its sometimes devastating consequences. The result is an indispensable book that takes us from school cafeterias to courtrooms to the offices of Facebook - the website where so much teenage life, good and bad, now unfolds. Along the way, Bazelon defines what bullying is and, just as important, what it is not. She explores when intervention is essential and when kids should be given the freedom to fend for themselves. She also dispels persistent myths: that girls bully more than boys, that online and in-person bullying are entirely distinct, that bullying is a common cause of suicide, and that harsh criminal penalties are an effective deterrent. Above all, she believes that to deal with the problem, we must first understand it. Blending keen journalistic and narrative skills, Bazelon explores different facets of bullying through the stories of three young people who found themselves caught in the thick of it. Thirteen-year-old Monique endured months of harassment and exclusion before her mother finally pulled her out of school. Jacob was threatened and physically attacked over his sexuality in eighth grade - and then sued to protect himself and change the culture of his school. Flannery was one of six teens who faced criminal charges after a fellow student’s suicide was blamed on bullying and made international he ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Rebecca Lowman.

    AnnaPolis Summers: I Survived Bullying! , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 396min
    There is no age for this audiobook! If you have ever been bullied or have watched it happen to one whom you love, you "get it"! AnnaPolis Summers touches the heart of everyone as it transports us back to the glory and pain of middle school! The story is told with love through sailing. If you are a sailor, you will love the humor and wit about this beloved sport and hobby. Maybe you have dreamed of "sailing away" on a beautiful yacht? Come sail away with the Polis family to the Chesapeake area! Bullying is wrong and must be stopped. Schools are not always aware of the abuse leveled against innocents. Students hesitate to talk about their problem. They may feel embarrassed. If only they could understand the problem is not theirs; it is the rude person who needs to feel superior. Talking about the situation can provide answers and support. Students should be aware that this problem exists for many. They can rise above it. One way is to band together with a small group. It can be harder to abuse a group than an individual. No one has the right to make another person's life unhappy. Many victims of bullying never recover from the darkness and pain. This tale is of Anna Polis, a wealthy girl who enjoys sailing on the family's yacht, Honey, each summer to Annapolis. The message is that all types are abused and must face the meanness of others. Anna is able, with the help of classmates, to weather the attacks. She even fulfills earlier dreams of greatness in her school. It is the next bully who almost destroys the young woman as she studies at Duke University. This foe is determined to end her life and all that she loves. Anna has a force on her side that even the vilest opponent can't conquer. Again, the young woman gains the love she almost lost. Don't let them win! You are better. Relax and understand that you are not alone as you sail aboard the beautiful Honey to Annapolis with Anna Polis and her family. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Erin Bateman.

    Narcissism Epidemic: Exacting Your Revenge on a Malignant and Malicious Narcissist: Reversing the Mind Control, Gas-Lighting, Manipulation, and More! , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 70min
    Most people have come into contact with a deadly and deceptive narcissist at some point during their life. You might not have recognized that the person was a narcissist. But you might have recognized his meanness, inflexibility, tough exterior, Machiavellian ways, chronically unhappy demeanor, death stare, and his envy of you. The narcissist wants what you have. He wants it when he wants it. If he doesn't get it, he will throw a monstrous tantrum that will shatter your life. You don't think that the narcissist is as dangerous as he truly is. The truth is, you may truly never recover from the efforts of a malicious and malignant narcissist. Once he has crossed your path, you will forever be changed and leery of encounters with the narcissist. If you are lucky, you don't see all of the dynamics of the narcissist. He rips you off, and then he moves on to rip off someone else. Or, he steals your girl, wrecks your marriage, ruins your business, and steals your belongings or money. Narcissistic revenge is the only way that people start to feel some sense of wholeness after the narcissist negatively affects their life. The narcissist is nearly always impenetrable by the police and the FBI. He behaves as though he is "one of the boys", and thus he fits into their tribe so perfectly that he is treated like he is part of the family. A bullet can bring the narcissist down, however, this isn't the old West and the narcissist is hardly worth going to prison over. This audiobook will give you tools and tactics to exact revenge against the narcissist, as well as reasons why these tools will work. If you choose not to use the tactics, my hopes are that you will at least get a laugh out of some of the things that I have come up with. It can play into your vengeful thinking while you are lying awake next to the narcissist wishing he would stop breathing in his sleep and rid you of the malicious torture he has subjected you to. ungekürzt.

    Finding Love in First Corinthirns Thirteen
    We can only be better when we choose love over hate, mercy over judgment, kindness over meanness, hope over despair, and living the best life that God the Father has given to us in the Son. Love is the route to do this and let us strive to be filled with the abundance of this virtue through the help of the mighty Spirit of God. Beloved, God's unconditional love is the gift of a lifetime. Grab hold of it and share this love every day with others. Endorsement:As believers, love is a compelling phenomenon in our walk and relationship with the Lord. As loaded as it is, the choice of love as a subject for this book makes it a must-read for everyone. The author systematically expounds upon the need to go beyond regarding love as a theoretical concept. She emphasizes the imperative for us to listen to our Lord's commandment. We must see love as an action word worthy of practice amongst ourselves in our daily lives in our homes, churches, workplaces, schools, market places, etc.¿Pastor Tochi When we listen to the Lord's injunction, we are in obedience. When we listen not, we are in disobedience. The author dutifully points out God's immutable style of rewarding compliance and the inescapable consequences of disobedience. The word of God in Isaiah 1:19-20 anchors her point. "If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land, but if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured by the sword for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it."In agreement with the author, love, among many other factors, is the uniqueness of our oneness as God's creation.¿Hans C. Reviews for 1Cor.13I loved the flow of this book, and you can sense that this book is Spirit-filled from the beginning to the end. The anointing is so powerful, and it is evident that the author is gifted. We need more Spirit-filled books and authors like this woman to give us God's perspective and not man's.¿Regina C Let me start by saying that this is one of the best Christian books that I have read in a long time. I had to read it repeatedly to allow each verse to absorb in my spirit. God's love is assuring, and it is demonstrated in this book. There is no doubt that God is still speaking to us through His servants today.¿Kaleb W More grace to this author and I am definitely a fan now because I can't wait to read more books written by her.¿John E About the Author:In April 2007, Helen Clement answered God's call to the office of the prophet soon after giving her life to the Lord Jesus Christ. Helen Clement is called to comfort, encourage, heal, bring deliverance, preach, and proclaim the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ to a worldwide audience. She is happily married for over thirty years and blessed with four beautiful children.
