But Pastor Kent Christmas has lived these words. Jobless, near penniless, and nearly killed, on more than one occasion . . . yet ever laboring to become all that God would have him to be. This was Kent s story. But God . . . God uses broken people with broken hearts and lives to bring healing and salvation to a broken world. In Turning Sorrow Into Joy, you will learn how God took Kent from floundering small-town preacher to world-renowned pastor, from brokenness to healing, from adversity to blessing, and from despair to victory. For Kent, God truly did restore the years that the locust had eaten (Joel 2:25). Are you struggling to fulfill what you believe to be God s purpose for your life but can t seem to gain any traction? Is your story one of heartache, betrayal, rejection, and struggle, and you fear that your past will be your future? Kent Christmas has been there, yet he triumphed against all odds. And so can you. Kent s story didn t end where it began. Read it and be encouraged. God has a plan for you. He will fulfill it in His time.

This transformative book looks at one of the most undervalued aspects of childhood, joy. Using the latest neuroscience and biochemistry this book shows that joy, far from being an abstract concept, is one of the key motivators for every aspect of learning and development throughout childhood and something we ignore at our peril. The book gives concrete strategies for increasing the levels of joy in our children and highlights the catastrophic damage that a decline in joy can cause in our children especially in a post pandemic world. Suitable for anyone who works with children, this book puts forward a compelling argument that Joy is profoundly important for all of our children and can fundamentally help our children to thrive. Warning - may contain evil clowns!

A poignant account of how the carceral state shapes daily life for young Black peopleâ ”and how Black Americans resist, find joy, and cultivate new visions for the future.  At the Southern California Libraryâ ”a community organization and an archive of radical and progressive movementsâ ”the author meets a young man, Marley. In telling Marleyâ ™s story, Damien M. Sojoyner depicts the overwhelming nature of Black precarity in the twenty-first century through the lenses of housing, education, health care, social services, and juvenile detention. But Black life is not defined by precarity; it embraces social visions of radical freedom that allow the pursuit of a life of joy beyond systems of oppression.  Structured as a â œrecord collection⠝ of five â œalbums,⠝ this innovative book relates Marleyâ ™s personal encounters with everyday aspects of the carceral state through an ethnographic A side and offers deeper context through an anthropological and archival B side. In Joy and Pain, Marleyâ ™s experiences at the intersection of history and the contemporary political moment invite us to imagine more expansive futures. Â
