Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Mothers and fathers are the original human resource managers! Whatever the era or circumstances, their challenges remain constant: to pass on a legacy of positive work attitudes and habits to their children. In Good, Better, Best author Esther Esteban focuses on five work-related habits: diligence, order, responsibility, cooperation, and cheerfulness. These are the building blocks of good work that take time and considerable training to develop. When they are practiced naturally, quickly, constantly, and with ease, they evolve into stable qualities of the human personality (virtues). Motivating children to do their work (school work, play, household chores, hobbies, sports), and to sustain and complete tasks well, are the challenges of parents, caregivers, and teachers. This sequel to The Work of Children is an inspirational guide to help them in that process.  &nbsp.…

Paperback. Condición: Good. We all want to be happy. Perhaps the greatest obstacle to happiness for most people is resentment. It' s easy to see how widespread this problem is: just notice the critical tone of so many conversations, the anger, the complaints and lamentations, the excuses, negative thoughts, frustrations, the distancing of person from person, family divisions, marriage breakdowns, eagerness for vindication or vengeance, labor disputes, social problems, even conflicts between nations. This short book confronts this problem, studies it, and offers solutions to resolve it. The study of forgiveness is a difficult matter, but it is even more difficult to live this virtue in practice. At the same time, it is one of the most important resources for the attainment of happiness, because it can resolve, in a fundamental way, the principal obstacle to happiness: resentment.…

Paperback. Condición: Good. To err is human. But because we are social beings, our mistakes often harm others in small and not-so-small ways. We have all given or received wounds that need the healing power of forgiveness. This is easier said than done, however. Many would like to forgive, but just can' t seem to do it. And they continue to suffer the bitterness and the lack of peace that comes from unforgiven injuries. In Wounds in the Heart, Dr. Javier Schlatter leads us out of this conundrum and into a deeper understanding of the healing power of forgiveness and its importance in our lives. He explains what forgiveness is, what it is not, and how to experience its healing power in our lives. He also looks at the impact of forgiveness on health and the keys to forgiveness in marriage. His insights are practical but also provide a deeper understanding of forgiveness that goes well beyond a superficial self-help book. Dr. Schlatter is Assistant Director of the Department of Psychiatry and Medical Psychology at the University of Navarre Medical Clinic. He is the author of several books on anxiety and stress and is a specialist in emotional disorders and the biological basis of depression and phobias.…

Paperback. Condición: Good. Behold, I make all things new. Revelation21:5  It does us all good to refresh, renew, and rediscover what it means to be human, to be a child of God. In Home Again by Fr. John Henry Hanson, he desires to lead you " home" through a prayerful revitalization of your faith in God' s plan for you-- your story-- by recalling its incredible beauty and depth. He reminds you that your identity as a Christian is strengthened through the sacraments-- gifts of the Church that accompany and enrich you through life.  " Change without grace, renovation without interior renewal, is spiritually worthless. The thing remodeled, so to speak, remains what it always was. The most important kind of regeneration isn' t outward or skin-deep but takes places in the hidden depths of the soul."   Allow yourself to be reminded that God is a lover whose very desires for you will lead you directly to fulfillment and everlasting joy. The author hopes for you to live the resounding cry: " My story must flow from him, and return to him." &nbsp.…
