Social Help

Jarrett Stevens has been helping people find language for prayer over the course of a few decades. He's discovered along the way that prayer is more straightforward than we make it out to be. With helpful starting practices to make prayer a more natural rhythm for your life, Jarrett helps you to find your voice when words of prayer are hard to come by, to settle into the silence when God seems quiet, and to bring all your cares and celebrations to God because He longs to walk with you in and through them.

The British government has embarked on an ambitious and legally-binding climate change target: reduce the country's greenhouse gas emissions to Net Zero by 2050. The Net Zero policy was subject to almost no parliamentary or public scrutiny, and is universally approved by our political class. But what will its consequences be?

Americans, for all our talk of pulling ourselves up by our bootstraps, obsessively seek advice on matters large and small. Perhaps precisely because we believe in bettering ourselves and our circumstances in life, we ask for guidance constantly. And this has been true since our nation's earliest days: From the colonial era on, there have always been people eager to step up and offer advice, some of it lousy, some of it thoughtful, but all of it read and debated by generations of Americans.

No Is a Beautiful Word is designed and crafted for people whose plates are full, whose margins are thin, and whose lives feel overloaded. They are looking for help, relief, and wisdom to navigate the countless options that life offers on a daily basis. The goal of this book is give people clear concepts, paint a picture of what it looks like to live out the idea, and then move on to the next thought. The vision is to help people learn to say "No" to the things that don't matter, so they can say "Yes" to the things that bring life, hope, peace, and lasting meaning.

Can a unicorn really help me make better choices? Yes, I have a unicorn for a pet. She’s my best friend. We do many cool things together - eating breakfast, racing across the meadow, sliding down the rainbow, and a lot more. But recently, I’ve been upset because everything I did seemed to be awful. Starting with my little brother to my dad to my friends at school. There was always a good reason for what I did, but it seemed I always made big mistakes, and it was always my fault. Life is so unfair. And I didn’t know what to do.

Today when I saw him, he asked " how was my day", I shrugged and said, "I guess okay," then I tripped over my shoelace falling into his space, he laughed then asked "are you running in a race," I cried "my dog went missing without a trace", I picked myself up, after falling on my face, but just as he wiped the concrete from my cheek, my knees went weak...

If you, like me, realize that God’s grace in allowing Jesus to take our punishment for sin means that He deserves no less than to be to first on our priority list, the hub that holds the spokes of our life wheel, the main thing (have I used enough Christian cliches here?), then the question becomes, what does this mean for me as a public school teacher? The courts have decided that we represent the government, and as such, we must be careful about how we live our faith in front of our students. How, then, do we follow the Great Commission and still teach with integrity?

In No Hard Feelings, you'll learn how to navigate the emotional minefield that is the modern workplace, and express your feelings and identity at work. After all, the financial success of the 21st century depends on it. Without the ability to communicate and correct stress, we risk burnout. Without emotions, we cannot make decisions, influence others, or be creative. As our jobs become more collaborative, complex, and stressful - as well as the centre of our identities - effectively embracing emotion will only become more important.

Working in Vancouver's notorious downtown eastside to pay for her theological education at Regent College, Meera Bai Grover was faced with questions about whether or not providing people who use drugs with sterile supplies and a place to inject contravened her faith. She knew she wanted to care for people with addiction but did not know how to do so in a way that fit with her own moral code.

The question of how Donald Trump won the 2016 election looms over his presidency. Drawing on path-breaking work in which she and her colleagues isolated significant communication effects in the 2000 and 2008 presidential campaigns, the eminent political communication scholar Kathleen Hall Jamieson marshals the troll posts, unique polling data, analyses of how the press used the hacked content, and a synthesis of half a century of media effects research to argue that, although not certain, it is probable that the Russians helped elect the 45th president of the United States.

Stoicism has a lot to offer that is as relevant today as it was 2,000 years ago—its guiding purpose was to help us to live better lives. The Stoic golden rule was that "we can't control external events, but we can choose how to respond to them". This idea can have a profound effect on how we exist in the world.

The unprecedented access to other humans that technology provides has ironically freed us from engaging with them. According to social psychologist Adam Waytz, our increasingly human-free lives come with a serious cost that we’ve already begun to pay: the loss of our humanity. Humans have superpowers. More than any other psychological stimulus, our presence can make experiences feel significant, inspire moral behavior, and encourage action. The Power of Human shows us how to rehumanize and harness these unique abilities to improve our lives, beginning with our jobs.

Nadia Gilani has been practising yoga as a participant and teacher for more than 25 years. Yoga has saved her life and seen her through many highs and lows; it has been a faith, a discipline and a friend, and she believes wholeheartedly in its radical potential. However, over her years in the wellness industry, Nadia has noticed not only yoga's rising popularity, but also how its modern incarnation no longer serves people of colour, working-class people or many other groups who originally pioneered its creation.
