Download or read book Back From the Edge written by Jacquie Caldwell. This book was released on 2009-06. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Back From the Edge was written by and for a Christian wife dealing with her spouse's infidelity. From the "why me" stage to the place where you defer your will to that of God's plan, this book walks you through the Bible, encouraging you to redirect your focus from the pain of the situation to the promise of a sovereign God. Jacquie Caldwell writes with refreshing honesty and poignant understanding. She kindly, yet clearly, challenges those who have been wounded through marital infidelity toward biblical thinking as well as living. Her purpose for sharing from her experience is to bring back to a watching world the true picture of Christ and the Church. Readers will find themselves loved and encouraged through Jacquie's writing. Her practical and biblically based Study Guides at the end of each chapter will also help the reader to move forward with excellent application of Scripture. ________________________________________ Jacquie Caldwell, a native Detroiter, has been married to husband, Fred, for twenty-four years, and is mother to Erica and Steven. A member of the Christian Tabernacle Church in Southfield, Michigan, she works with the youth ministry there. In her home you can always find a hug or a shoulder to lean on. Both come with hot cocoa, freshly baked cookies, and a gentle word of encouragement from the Bible. Jacquie believes that the Christian marriage is under attack and the Saints of God are surrendering without a fight. Not one to give up easily, she asserts in this book that the Word of GOD is true, and if we resist the devil, as we've been instructed to do, he will flee. This book is an outgrowth of struggles she's faced in her own life and marriage, but points to sure victory as we replace our will with HIS Word.

Download or read book Christian Slater - Back from the Edge written by Nigel Goodall. This book was released on 2015-08-26. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christian Slater is a screen icon in his own time and one of the world's most admired actors. This long awaited biography traces the life and career of a fascinating Hollywood player...From the late eighties onwards, Christian Slater was the embodiment of teenage cool. Films such as The Name of the Rose, Young Guns II and Pump Up the Volume became instant cult classics and ensured his status as both a teenage heartthrob and as the elite actor of his generation. His position as an A-list star was hardly diminished during the nineties, with brilliant performances in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, True Romance, Broken Arrow and Very Bad Things establishing him as a formidable force in acting.But fame and success did not always sit easily with Christian, and from his off-screen behaviour resulted a 'bad boy' reputation that has stuck with him ever since. Alcohol and drug excesses have led to numerous incidents with the law, assault charges, even a stint in jail - but through all this, Christian managed to retain a highly successful career.These personal demons, as well as Christian's intense and turbulent love affairs with the likes of Winona Ryder, Christina Applegate and Patricia Arquette, have merely added to the romance of this highly elusive and attractive individual. Yet for the man himself, the crazy lifestyle started to take its toll, and in more recent years Christian started to come to terms with the personality flaws that have plagued him throughout his family life and career.In addition to his film career, Christian's impeccable performances in a recent stage play version of One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest won him the Theatregoers Choice Award for Best Actor, and with his role in Broadway's The Glass Menagerie and the West End production of Sweet Bird of Youth, his return to theatrical mainstream is in full bloom.From this incisive biography, which includes a complete filmography, emerges a complex and sometimes contradictory character, a man who has dealt with fame, love, loss and success in his own, uncompromising and inspired way. The films, the flings, the affairs, the media gossip - all are dealt with truthfully in a book as fascinating and candid as the man himself.

Book Synopsis Back from the Edge by : Luke Sutton

Download or read book Back from the Edge written by Luke Sutton. This book was released on 2020-02-19. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “One of the most open and honest and thought-provoking books on the effect addiction and alcohol can have on the career and life of a county cricketer.” —Deep Extra Cover The truth is that professional sports are a breeding ground for addictive behavior. Luke Sutton is a business owner and successful agent to sporting stars such as James Taylor, Nile Wilson and Sam Quek, but his life didn’t always look so positive. Back from the Edge reveals the huge ups and major downs that a professional career in sports can bring—and the mental health difficulties that can plague a sportsperson along the way. Luke knows this more than most. Brutally, but refreshingly honest, this no-frills autobiography of the former professional cricketer describes in detail the moment he hit rock bottom, how he got there, his roller coaster journey through rehab, and the important lessons he’s learned since. Throughout the book, Luke remains candid and reveals how his addictions affected his personal life, from his friends to family to his children. Back from the Edge is heart-wrenching. It’s also thoroughly genuine, funny and utterly inspirational, and has allowed the former cricketer to speak about his mental health and to raise awareness of addiction in sports. Now a sports agent, he is perfectly placed to spot the warning signs in young stars, and to support them before they spiral into the same type of experiences he faced. “A raw account of his alcoholism and the process of rebuilding his life.” —The Telegraph “One of the most honest cricket books ever written.” —ESPNcricinfo
