It perfectly blends Dr. Eugene's extensive experience in the public health sector, mentoring and leadership, and Leslie's recent trial-and-error experience on college life.

If we learn from our mistakes, we can become better people. We can become more wise, more compassionate, and more understanding. Therefore, our mistakes do not define us.

He invaded our histories!He rocked our worlds!>In Guidance, Goofs, and Grace, Dave Lutes shares a rollicking memoir of the early part of his journey through the Jesus Movement.

This book is a love story-a story of the extravagant, lavish love that God has for all of his children. Gina Bauer inspires both women and men as she explores the principles outlined in Saint John Paul II's Apostolic Letter, On the Dignity and Vocation of Women (Mulieris Dignitatem). It is written to remind women of their great dignity, as well as God's divine plan for women and men, together--so men can read it too! Saint John Paul II believed in women. In this Apostolic Letter, he summons the women of the Church to take the place God has prepared for them. This means that women, inspired and guided by the Holy Spirit, are called to step it up, to be a part of the answer for the many dangers that humanity is facing. It is not enough to have coffee and talk about all the problems. He is directing all women to influence human change as the grace is given to them through the power of the Holy Spirit. What does it mean to be a woman in the order of love? Does this meaning exist? If so, how does this meaning affect every aspect of the life of women in their various roles within marriage and the family, the workplace, the Church, and society at large? Saint John Paul II calls for a clearer understanding of women and the vital role they are called to play. Women and men, together, reflect God best, so when we talk about women taking their rightful place, we are talking about the place that God has for them side by side with men: "male and female he created them" (Gen 1:27). Women as well as men who read this book will be challenged, inspired, and encouraged to seek a better understanding of what it is to live in Undivided Love. We are worth the fight. You are worth the Fight.
