Should you trust your intuition when it comes to love? This memoir recounts the remarkable true story of how a chance meeting on a Jerusalem bus in 1983 led to a marriage just ten days later. This is the account of their unlikely marriage, an unplanned honeymoon adventure in Europe, and an improvised first year living together in Jerusalem, working and studying at Hadassah Hospital and the Hebrew University on Mount Scopus. Through their story, and in letters to and from friends and family, we experience the questions, struggles, tragedies, wonder, and humor in every life; and the ultimate merging of two independent and strong-willed souls. The story takes them from Israel, to Europe, to the Northeast US, and then to Colorado, Seattle, and ultimately to Bellingham, near Vancouver BC. This is the story of how the young couple managed to open their hearts and turn their lives in a previously unimagined direction. On the way, they learn about communication, compromise, and forgiveness. It is the story of the inexplicable coincidences that can change the trajectory of our lives at any moment and open a door to the good life.
There's good news: the goal of hospitality is not perfection. It's connection. In a world that often equates hospitality with elaborate meals around a picture-perfect table, Clark reframes what hospitality actually looks like. And it's radical. The Imperfect Welcome casts a vision for how to step toward others--especially those different from ourselves! In what can only be described as an adventure, this inspiring book--filled with stories of eccentric characters from around the world--shows that the imperfect welcome is the best kind of welcome. A welcome that invites us all home.

I bet you've heard it said a thousand times, and it sounds something like this, "Social Media is a weapon, used to bully, spread rumors, and give a false perception of reality." But how many of us hear what is being said but continue to feed into the lies of those hidden deep behind a keyboard?No one truly understands the aftermath of tragedy until they have experienced it firsthand. However, this truth doesn't seem to shake those that rely on social media to know how they feel about publicly made, heinous accusations. Without hearing from those with first-hand experience, those with a platform weaponize their right to free speech in order to slander those they uneducatedly turn against and crush anyone brave enough to oppose them. After six years of suppression and censorship, Andy Turner, husband of the late Heather Turner, is breaking his silence. For the first time, Andy will speak about his beloved wife's suicide in a book that begins with a small-town boy fighting his way out of poverty. It will show the story of a tumultuous first marriage, the lasting effects of abuse that would go uncorrected by a failing court system, and a secret life that would be uncovered by officials looking for answers. Who Turned Up the Silence, shares a deep look into the family and shines a light on those who twisted facts and spun tales for their own fifteen minutes of fame. The book lends itself to be a voice for Andy and the Turner children who are finally free to share intimate details of all they have been through.

Yet though Wist's magic remains in high demand, she's still far weaker than she used to be. And her self-sacrificial instincts soon threaten to put her in direct opposition to Clematis.So much for living quietly. Clematis can't use magic. She can't even throw a solid punch. Her only weapons are her wits and dirty tricks. But she'll fight tooth and nail to defend her happy ending. She'll keep fighting no matter who stands in her way-be it Wist's ultra-influential family of mages, international spies and assassins, or even Wist herself.The Clem & Wist SeriesPrequel: No One Else Could Heal HerBook 1: The Lowest Healer and the Highest MageBook 2: The Reverse Healer Case FilesEach novel revolves around the same couple.
