Hardback. Condición: Good. Kids today are depressed and anxious. They also seem to feel entitled to every advantage and unwilling to make the leap into adulthood. As Polly Young-Eisendrath makes clear in this brilliant account of where a generation has gone astray, parents trying to make their children feel special are unwittingly interfering with their kids' ability to accept themselves and cope with life. Clarifying an enormous cultural change, THE SELF-ESTEEM TRAP shows why so many young people have trouble with empathy and compassion, struggle with moral values, and are stymied in the face of adversity. Young-Eisendrath offers prescriptive advice on how adults can help kids - through the teen and young adult years - develop self-worth, setting them on the right track to productive, balanced and happy lives.…

Paperback. Condición: Good. The Gifted Trap is a revealing exploration into the world of gifted and talented adults who are living less than lives. It brings into focus a widely-experienced yet rarely-talked-about-phenomenon of people trapped in emotional quicksand. You may be hidden behind a perfect (or possibly a not-so-perfect) facade, longing for a sense of freedom that allows you to simply BE YOU. Written from the heart of a multi-talented daughter of a Tuskegee Airman, born into a family of trailblazers and high-achievers, Anne felt she had big shoes to fill. She lived a trapped existence holding herself back with tentative reins, as do many children from gifted families. Until she took a leap of faith, stepped out saying YES without knowing HOW; only KNOWING that wings would be grown as she began to SOAR. Along her journey she encountered real people from all walks of life, struggling with self-doubt and feelings of inadequacy. Many shared how at times they play small, or live scared fearful of alienation and abandonment. They sometimes self-sabotage or settle for mediocrity rather than reach their full potential. Often they have feelings of I'm not good enough, I don't matter, or simply wonder how to live up to and into expectations that result from three influencers that can limit and trap you emotionally. These perceptions, beliefs and judgments (PB&Js(r)) that are imposed on you by others or yourself have the power to control your life. Either you learn to manage them or they will manage you. This eye-opening book illuminates a new perspective. As Anne shares her truth, you're inspired to realize, with your real eyes - the eyes of your soul(r) - how to step unapologetically into your greatness, leave your legacy, and E.M.E.R.G.E. from gifted to great Internationally recognized author and speaker, Anne Palmer, is a clarity expert as well as a leadership and communication strategist to gifted and talented adults. The former Emmy-Award winning talk show host, corporate spokesperson and non-profit executive now uses the gifts of her voice, sage-like intuitive wisdom and mentoring skills to transform those she touc.…

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. The Cross Trap is a re-evaluation of the events surrounding the Crucifixion to show that they were not isolated occurrences but part of a well conceived conspiracy to send the Son of God back to God as a sinner. The scriptures focus on the religious leaders' opposition to Jesus' status as an authoritative teacher; however, the underlying focus of Satan was on Jesus as the perfect sacrificial Lamb for the remission of sin. Even though the religious leaders did not understand or believe Jesus' primary role as the savior, Satan certainly had a good understanding of it. The conflicts Jesus experienced in his ministry are only the finale of the anger that had festered in the spiritual world since his birth. Death for Jesus was not enough. His sanctity as the Lamb of God had to be destroyed, thus making him an unworthy sacrifice. -Why was Jesus' death by crucifixion? -Was Judas given thirty pieces of silver for a kiss? -Why did two thieves die with Jesus? -Why was there vinegar and gall at the cross? -Why did the soldier pierce Jesus with the spear? The Cross Trap will answer these questions and explain why the Crucifixion was a formidable and almost perfect trap. …
