Hope Heals by Katherine and Jay Wolf A Review

 Hope Heals
A True Story of Overwhelming Loss and an Overcoming Love

by Katherine Wolf, Jay Wolf

When all seems lost, where can hope be found?

Katherine and Jay married right after college and sought adventure far from home in Los Angeles, CA. As they pursued their dreams, they planted their lives in the city and in their church community. Their son, James, came along unexpectedly in the fall of 2007, and just 6 months later, everything changed in a moment for this young family.

On April 21, 2008, as James slept in the other room, Katherine collapsed, suffering a massive brain stem stroke without warning. Miraculously, Jay came home in time and called for help. Katherine was immediately rushed into micro-brain surgery, though her chance of survival was slim. As the sun rose the next morning, the surgeon proclaimed that Katherine had survived the removal of part of her brain, though her future recovery was completely uncertain. Yet in that moment, there was a spark of hope. Through 40 days on life support in the ICU and nearly 2 years in full-time brain rehab, that spark of hope was fanned into flame.

Defying every prognosis, with grit and grace, Katherine and Jay, side by side, struggled to regain a life for Katherine as she re-learned to talk and eat and walk. Returning home with a severely disabled body but a completely renewed purpose, they committed to celebrate this gift of a second chance by embracing life fully, even though that life looked very different than they could have ever imagined. In the midst of continuing hardships and struggles, both in body and mind, Katherine and Jay found what we all long to find...hope, hope that heals the most broken place, our souls.

An excruciating yet beautiful road to recovery has led the Wolf family to their new normal, in which almost every moment of life is marked with the scars of that fateful April day in 2008. Now, eight years later, Katherine and Jay are stewarding their story of suffering, restoration, and Christ-centered hope in this broken world through their ministry Hope Heals.

MY REVIEW
  This is a amazing true story of a woman’s fight and struggle after suffering a massive brain stem stroke without warning. It is also the story of her husband how he stayed with her and never left her side.
   Katherine and Jay were very young and in love. They just had their first child. He was only 6 months old when the stroke hit Katherine. She was on life support in ICU for 40 days and 2 years in full-time brain rehab. Eight years later they wrote this book and have a ministry called Hope Heals.
  If you love stories that show courage  and hope again all kinds of odds you will love this book. So many things Katherine has to endure and overcome. Also Jay is an remarkable husband. So many husbands/wives leave their spouses when a major illness/disease comes to them. He really stuck with her.
  The ending is just miraculous. I highly recommend this true story. Very uplifting and positive.

Coming Clean by Seth Haines A Review

ABOUT COMING CLEAN
“I suppose we’re all drunk on something.”


Seth Haines was in the hospital with his wife, planning funeral songs for their not-yet two-year-old, when he made a very conscious decision: this was the last day he ever wanted to feel. So he asked his sister to smuggle in some gin, and his addiction began.


But whether or not you’ve ever had a drop to drink in your life, we’re all looking for ways to stop the pain. Like Seth, we’re all seeking balms for the anxiety of what we believe is an absent God—whether it’s through people-pleasing, shopping, the internet, food, career highs, or even good works and elite theology. We attempt to anesthetize our anxiety through addiction—any old addiction. But it often leaves us feeling even more empty than before.


In Coming Clean, Seth Haines writes rawly through the first 90 days of a work of sobriety, illuminating how to face the pain we’d rather run from, and even more importantly, how Jesus meets us there. Because it is only when we face our anxieties with the tenacity and tenderness of Christ’s passion that we truly discover that we are indeed clean, surrendered, and whole.

MY REVIEW
  Coming Clean is a true journaling of a man who was addicted to alcohol. The book is his first 90 days of sobriety. His drinking started when their young son isn’t thriving and Seth believes he will die. He can’t face up to the pain so he hides behind the drink. The first part of his sobriety is quiet sad and he has a very hard time, but with God and facing his past he finds the help he needs.
  This book isn’t full of happiness and joy, but a journey that will keep you reading to find out whaat answers Seth finally comes to.
  Seth tells us that there are many ways to hide and not face the truth. Some ways may be an addiction to food, cutting or to your body. Each addiction needs for us to draw closer to God and put Him first.
  Coming Clean is a very good book full of truth and insights. You are never totally alone. God is always there. Another book to recommend.

The Five Times I Met Myself by James L. Rubart A Review

ABOUT THE FIVE TIMES I MET MYSELF
 What if you met your twenty-three-year-old self in a dream? What would you say?

Brock Matthews’ once promising life is unraveling. His coffee company. His marriage.

So when he discovers his vivid dreams—where he encounters his younger self—might let him change his past mistakes, he jumps at the chance. The results are astonishing, but also disturbing.

Because getting what Brock wants most in the world will force him to give up the one thing he doesn’t know how to let go . . . and his greatest fear is that it’s already too late.

MY REVIEW
  The Five Times I Met Myself by James L. Rubart is just incredible. Every single book I have read by James L. Rubart has been the same. I so enjoy when he has a new book out, because I know I can expect a book full of intriguing, interesting topics you don’t get from other authors.  His books aren’t about your normal, every day things that lots of authors write about.
  In The Five Times I Met Myself Brock has been having a mysterious, crazy dream, so he tells his friend about it. The friend gives him a book about lucid dreaming. Where you can control your dreams and talk to people or visit events. It’s having control over your dreams.
  Since everything in Brock’s live is falling apart he thinks if he would have done things differently his life would have turned out better. He wouldn’t be in the shape he is in now. So he goes in his dream back to talk to himself and tells himself certain areas to change and things to do differently.
  The only bad thing about this is things started to go from bad to worse. Even when he thought he changed his life for the better somehow things just kept getting crazier.  Now after he has visited himself four times he wants to make things the way they were before he started the lucid dreaming. Will Brock be able to do this?
  So many outcomes and so many changes, what will really happen? This book is just wonderful. So very, very interesting and it will keep you reading. Very highly recommended. If you have never read any of James L. Rubart’s books now is the time to start. I just can’t say enough how much I love this book.

Silent Cry by Dorothy J. Newton A Review

ABOUT SILENT CRY
Raised near New Orleans as one of six children, Dorothy Newton was surrounded by abuse and poverty as she grew up. But she became the first in her family to graduate from college and moved out of poverty. She then began to live out her dreams in Dallas of a better home and life when she married celebrity superstar football player Nate Newton. She had gone from poverty to the pinnacle of success. She was married to a handsome, successful, famous professional athlete, who was a three time Super Bowl Champion and six time Pro-Bowler for the Dallas Cowboys.

But all that glittered was not gold.

Before long the relationship turned abusive. She found herself living in the world she thought she had escaped in her years growing up. The world did not see her suffering behind closed doors—she was betrayed, treated abusively, threatened continually. Dorothy was trapped with no one to talk to and nowhere to run. In this book Dorothy shares her experiences of pain, loss, survival, hope, recovery, and victory. A gripping story throughout, A Silent Cry is a testament to Dorothy’s will to live and the peace that comes with hope in the God who sees and hears your tears—even when no one else does

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
From a young age she witnessed her stepfather physically and verbally abuse her mother—images that would haunt her for years. Though she promised herself that she would never be in such a marriage, like so many others, she repeated her mother’s pattern—her abuser just happened to be a loved celebrity—a Super Bowl NFL football champion with the Dallas Cowboys. Who would believe her even if she dared to reveal her painful secret?

Dorothy is the Practice Administrator for a health care organization, where she is pursuing her M.B.A.  She is the proud mother of two boys—Nathaniel Newton III (Tre’), who is on an athletic scholarship at the University of Texas, and Nate King Newton. She has appeared on numerous television and radio programs as the former wife of retired Dallas Cowboy’s NFL player Nathaniel Newton, Jr.

MY REVIEW
  Silent Cry by Dorothy J. Newton is an excellent book. An autobiography that tells of abuse that is mentally and physically. Dorothy tells about her childhood and how her father abused her mother and how Dorothy was never going to get into a relationship where abuse was.
  Dorothy was/is a very intellect person. She stayed so very close to God, because He is the only one Dorothy could trust to not hurt her or leave her. Dorothy was the first one in her family to graduate college and become a woman who could support herself. She didn’t want to end up like her mother staying in a relationship because she didn’t have any money or anyone to go to, to get away from an abusive relationship.
  Then Dorothy met Nate Newton famous superstar football player for the Dallas Cowboys. Things were fine for a while and Dorothy gave up her job and depended on Nate. Then he started abusing her and the cycle started all over again. In Silent Cry Dorothy tells about the things she went through and how she never would have made it if she didn’t have the Lord in her life. Besides the physical, emotional abuse Dorothy put up with a cheating, lying husband and stood by him in all things.
  She reported Nate’s behavior several times, but him being a superstar no one would believe her or take her side.
  She stayed until she feared for her life and what it would do to their sons if she stayed. Read this book of incredible faith and how Dorothy made a new life for herself. She now helps other people in the same situation she was in. A very extraordinary book. Highly recommended.

The Plain Choice by Sherry Gore A Review


ABOUT THE PLAIN CHOICE
Raised in a broken family and emotionally overlooked, Sherry Gore grew up without a solid foundation, a prisoner of her own poor choices, and at times without hope.  A series of terrible mistakes left her feeling wrecked and alone and a sudden tragedy threw Sherry into an emotional tailspin too powerful to escape.


Sherry hangs by a thread, unable to see how she can go on living, until it happens: on a morning of no particular significance, she walks into a church and BAM the truth of Jesus’ forgiving love shatters her world and cleaves her life in two:  She goes to bed stunned; she wakes up a Christian.


Unwilling to return to the darkness of her former life, Sherry attacks her faith head on.  Soon the life Sherry Gore remakes for herself and her children as she seeks to follow the teachings of the Bible features head coverings, simple dress, and a focus on Jesus Christ.  Only then does she realize, in a fit of excitement, that there are others like her.  They are called Amish and Mennonite, and she realizes she has found her people.


The plain choice that Sherry makes is not easy – and life still brings unexpected pain and heartache - but it changes everything for her, as she becomes one of the few people on earth to have successfully joined the Amish from the outside.


She has found her place. And her story proves that one can return from the darkest depths to the purest light with the power of God.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Sherry Gore is former editor-in-chief of Cooking & Such magazine, the author of "Simply Delicious Amish Cooking", "Me, Myself and Pie" and a weekly scribe for the national edition of the Amish newspaper, The Budget, established in 1890. The National Geographic Channel featured Sherry prominently their documentary series, Amish: Out of Order. Sherry's culinary adventures have been seen on NBC Daytime; the Today Show; Mr. Food Test Kitchen and more. Sherry is a year-round resident of beautiful, sun-kissed Sarasota, Florida, the vacation paradise of the Plain People. She has three children and is a member of a Beachy Amish Mennonite church. When not spending time with her family, writing, or eating, Sherry is a cooking show host, and an official pie contest judge.

MY REVIEW
  The Plain Choice by Sherry Gore is a really interesting book. I’ve followed her on face book for a while and have enjoyed her outlook on things. So when I got the chance to read and review this book I was very glad.
   I admire Sherry for the things she has been through and how she made her life better and didn’t keep making horrible choices in life. So many people get in a cycle of living one way and never try or don’t think they can improve or change.
  Sherry has done one thing that I don’t agree with in her life, but that isn’t my life or my conviction. After she became a Christian and her second husband wasn’t a Christian she felt she should leave her husband. I think that’s wrong, but it’s her choice.  I admire women who become Christians and stay with their unChristian husbands.
   Sherry has a great love for her Lord, family, friends and life. I really enjoyed reading this book and highly recommend it to you.

The Bones Will Speak by Carrie Stuart Parks~A Review

ABOUT THE BONES WILL SPEAK
A killer with a penchant for torture has taken notice of forensics expert Gwen Marcey . . . and her daughter.

When Gwen Marcey’s dog comes home with a human skull and then leads her to a cabin in the woods near her Montana home, she realizes there’s a serial killer in their community. And when she finds a tortured young girl clinging to life on the cabin floor, she knows this killer is a lunatic.

Yet what unsettles Gwen most is that the victim looks uncannily like her daughter.

The search for the torturer leads back in time to a neo-Nazi bombing in Washington state—a bombing with only one connection to Montana: Gwen. The group has a race-not-grace model of salvation . . . and they’ve marked Gwen as a race traitor.

When it becomes clear that the killer has a score to settle, Gwen finds herself in a battle against time. She will have to use all of her forensic skills to find the killer before he can carry out his threat to destroy her—and the only family she has left.

MY REVIEW
  The Bones Will Speak by Carrie Stuart Parks is a good novel with a super ending. The ending was very suspenseful and had me sitting on the edge of my seat.
  The Bones Will Speak started off slow, but it wasn’t long before it started to get better. I’m glad I didn’t give up on this book.
  I always try to guess who the criminal is in a book and usually can guess, but in The Bones Will Speak I was completely wrong. I really like a book where I can’t guess who the evil one is.
  The ending really blew me away. It is a thriller for sure. I recommend this book if you love mysteries and thrillers. You will be well entertained.

Skin by Ted Dekker A REVIEW

ABOUT SKIN
A freak storm has spawned three tornadoes that are bearing down on the town of Summerville.

Yet under the cover of the storm looms a much more ominous threat: A vindictive killer known as Red who's left a string of victims in his wake and is now bent on exacting his final revenge on the unsuspecting town.

But there is an enigma surrounding Red that the FBI is unwilling to admit-closely guarded secrets of something gone terribly wrong beneath the skin of Summerville. Secrets that will destroy far more than one small town.

Wendy Davidson is caught in the middle. She's a recovering cult survivor who takes refuge in Summerville on her way to visit her estranged mother. And with her, four strangers, any of whom could be the next victim . . . or the killer.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
TED DEKKER is a New York Times bestselling author of more than twenty novels with a total of more than 5 million books in print. He is known for thrillers that combine adrenaline-laced plots with incredible confrontations between good and evil.

MY REVIEW
  Skin by Ted Dekker is a novel written in 2007, and I think it is just a fantastic book. I always enjoyed Ted’s books. They are always full of surprises with plenty of twists and turns. You never know where his books will lead you.
  This book, Skin started with a horrible storm with caused three tornadoes in one place. With that put a killer that is quicker than the faster gun and much death and destruction and you have a book that is a winner.
   Four people, all strangers, the local sheriff, Colt, Wendy, a recovering cult survivor, Carey and Nicole, a brother and sister are then joined by Pinkus and they are all fighting the killer Red.
  The book explores the question what is true beauty. Red wants them to chose who is the ugliest to die. What makes a people ugly, looks, actions etc…  That’s why this book is called Skin.
  You’ll be amazed at what this story is really about and how it plays out. This kind of novel is only for people who love strange stories and weird and unusual endings.
  I will highly recommend this book to all of you weird people like me. Fantastic read!

MY REVIEW
  Perfect by Harry Kraus is a really good book, but I didn’t like the ending. I really enjoyed most of the book though.
  Wendi is really good at her job, as an accident reconstructionist. She can read the cars, roads and know how fast someone was going. If they were braking or going faster etc.. She knows her job well.
  Wendi is tried of being the perfect daughter, wife, doctors wife and plans to change her life. She makes many very bad decisions, but in the end they all work out.
  Perfect shows us that when you build a web of deciect you will get caught. This book has many, many webs.  Also when you think your life is horrible it may be you that is wrong or going through a bad time, not because you have a bad life.
  Perfect is really interesting, but not a favorite. I do recommend that you read it though.
