It's a story of bitterness, hatred, and jealousy between family members who would go to any lengths to get what they want. It's a story of innocence lost. And for one of these abandoned children, it's the story of courage and love, of trying to forge a connection to a family that has been fractured beyond repair. Deborah Ashbaugh shares her heart-wrenching struggle to come to terms with the wreckage of her past and find some measure of peace and acceptance.

After years of physical pain and weakness, Cyndi White read in the Gospels that Jesus healed all those who yielded to His love, mercy, and light. She knew her brothers and sisters were also hurting and seeking Jesus as best as they knew how. In 1984, the fire of the Holy Spirit came to her from heaven, setting her free from agoraphobia, manic-depression, alcoholism, a smoking addiction, hatred, and an inability to forgive. She and her husband recently began a four-year journey to reunite with the fire from heaven, seeking to understand the deeper matters of God. Please Receive Your Healing From Heaven is the result of that quest. "My husband and I have wakened to the sounds of revival again in America, a revival that is spreading through the whole world! The eyes of our understanding have been opened. My heart's desire is for every one of us to come into our full potential for the bearing of spiritual fruit for His Glory. I pray this can be a spiritual map for you to receive your healing and commissioning."

In America, every year hundreds of thousands of students and teachers are victimized by acts of crime and violence that occur on the school grounds (National Center for Education Statistics, 2012). These victimizations vary from thefts, threats and bullying to physical assaults, shootings and killings. This book addresses these criminal challenges and identifies research-based solutions. Specifically, it presents exemplary theories, laws, policies, programs and practices that can be used to develop high performance schools in high-risk environments. This book is based on the author''s doctoral dissertation, which explores the struggles and achievements of students and educators attending middle schools that are located in high-risk communities in southern California. This work focuses on middle schools because, during this education time period, students and educators are most vulnerable to become victims of pervasive drugs, gangs, and violence, and related school failure. This book explores these challenges and presents research-based findings, which prove that effective school leadership and a safe school climate are essential to improve student achievement. Educators are encouraged to use these findings to help improve needy schools across America.This book represents a spirit of leadership that values and honors the work of all educators and law enforcement personnel who have committed their lives to serve, protect, and empower our children.
