In the small town of Summerville, South Carolina, Sandi McMann is the prettiest girl around. She and her fianc , handsome athlete Larry Burton, can't wait to attend the annual dance sponsored by their high school senior class, never suspecting that the night will change their lives forever .

The three are in good spirits until they hear a radio broadcast naming Jack as a suspect in a burglary. In a panic, Jack drives toward California to avoid arrest, starting a crime spree that involves Sandi and Larry as unwilling accomplices. Will Sandi and Larry find a way to escape, or will Jack's fate seal their own?

Rae McKeon spent most of her life trying to reach her emotionally absent mother, Fern. Now that her mother is dead, Rae seeks to discover the reason for Fern's suffocating silences, the barriers she erected between herself and her family. The only person who could connect with Fern was Rae's daughter Hannah, but Rae's relationship has never been strong with Hannah either. From unruly child to defiant teenager to unwed mother, Rae always seemed to find the most self-destructive means of coping with her life's challenges. But even though Rae could defy her strict, disapproving father, protecting herself from her mother's chronic depression proved to be her toughest challenge. When Rae finds a box of her mother's diaries, she is suddenly able to decode the path of Fern's life, even while she tries to sort out her own life, including her strange relationship with her long-term boyfriend and her estrangement from her daughter Hannah. Through three generations, Beyond Reach explores the oppressions that have silenced women for centuries. Fern is crippled by fear, Rae by shame, and Hannah by judgment. Just like the main characters, the answers often seem beyond reach.
The heart of a mom is wrapped up in the people she loves -- her children, her husband, her co-workers, her friends. She wants to give them the very best of herself, but sometimes her busy schedule gets in the way of the most precious gift she can give them -- her prayers. With this unique tried-and-proven prayer system, even the busiest moms can have a rich prayer life that impacts the people she loves the most. Author Lisa Whelchel offers seven categories of prayer that can be used as they are or modified to fit each mom's special needs. By investing just ten minutes a day, in one month, a mom can bring nearly one hundred and fifty matters before her heavenly Father. From requests for her childrens' protection to wisdom in her personal life to praise for God's constant faithfulness, this simple plan brings order and purpose to prayer.

Personal Transformations in Small Groups by Robert D. Boyd Pdf
The theoretical propositions of analytical psychology are difficult to verify and usually rest on the empirical evidence of reported case material. In this book, Robert D. Boyd and his colleagues break new ground by subjecting case material to a rigorous analysis in their report of a research programme which has focused on the expansion of consciousness in the small group and the interrelated phenomenon of personal transformation.A matrix model, conceptualizing the small group as a dynamic structural system, frames the empirical studies in the book. These include the exploration of symbolic archetypal themes and the observation of influential members who play crucial roles in group transitions. The book describes a new methodology for studying the social grieving brought about at times of transition, and the small group personal transformations that occur as individuals work through episodic themes of individuation. It also shows how personal transformations are affected by behaviours evoked by the anima and animus. Each chapter contains case materials and an extensive review of the relevant literature.These are pioneer studies in the field, reflecting more than twenty years of research. The different ways put forward of analyzing small group dynamics have practical implications for group leaders, and the methodologies described in the book can serve as both a model for research and as a source of research tools.Personal Transformations in Small Groups is the first book to look at small group functioning from an empirical perspective of analytical psychology and will be of considerable value to all those working with small groups or interested in group research.
