So Amazing

By: Darlene McKenna

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

I said, Mom, Im just so sorry for hurting you. My words were kind, and I again tried to explain why I had done what I did. All of a sudden, buried tears deep inside my heart began to pour out. Through my crying I said, Mom, I love you so much. Do you know that? She responded quietly, I have had my doubts, sometimes. As the conversation continued, we both talked and listened to each other. It was one of those mother-daughter times we will both treasure for the rest of our lives. My mom hugged me, and I quickly hugged her right back. A tremendous weight had lifted from my soul. We connected, we forgave, and we loved. God helped us both, and His love is so amazing! In December of 2013, my heart was overflowing with joy, and I once again felt inspired to write. I was in prayer, and I asked God a question. How can I show people that I have really changed? I felt Gods answer, and it was pretty simple. Just show them what you do every day.

Cardiopulmonary Physical Therapy

Management and Case Studies

By: W. Darlene Reid,Frank Chung,Kylie Hill

Cardiopulmonary Physical Therapy: Management and Case Studies, Second Edition is a unique and succinct textbook for the classroom that blends clinical notes on assessment and management together with case-based instructional approaches to cardiopulmonary care for acute and ambulatory care patients. This one-of-a-kind text describes current approaches that cover traditional physical therapist management strategies and includes evidence-based chapters on early mobilization and exercise training on a wide range of cardiopulmonary patient groups. The updated Second Edition presents twenty-four cases that were designed to complement each chapter topic and represent the most common pulmonary, cardiac, and neurological conditions that are typically managed in cardiopulmonary care. These cases have been carefully selected and developed over several years to illustrate a spectrum of clinical issues essential for the preparation of the entry-level therapist. The very interactive nature of the case history approach is engaging and provides the opportunity to work through many of the steps of the clinical decision-making process. Cardiopulmonary Physical Therapy: Management and Case Studies, Second Edition also includes answer guides for the questions posed in the assessment and management chapters, as well as for the twenty-four cases. New in the Second Edition: Twenty-four carefully selected evidence-based cases designed to go “hand-in-hand” with chapter topics An international perspective that is relevant to physical therapy practice in several countries Detailed chapter on noninvasive ventilation and mechanical ventilation Several chapters describe early mobilization and exercise training for a range of cardiopulmonary patient groups including those admitted to an intensive care unit Faculty will benefit from the “Talk Me Through” PowerPoint slides, which provide a great opportunity for independent learning and complement classroom teaching The two-fold evidence and case-based learning approach used by Dr. W. Darlene Reid, Frank Chung, and Dr. Kylie Hill allows for a more engaging experience. The inclusion of interactive materials will allow students to learn and develop skills to prepare themselves for their professional transition while clinicians can use the text as a reference tool.

The Change

By: Darlene McKenna

Who doesn't want to feel love and approval? When you can't find love and support at home, from those who are supposed to love you without question, you often go in search of it elsewhere. That is when problems can begin and accelerate. In The Change, author Darlene McKenna tells her story. It is one of heartache and bad choices. She chose to listen to Satan's voice, and he made her believe she was--and would never be--any good. As a result, she grows up insecure and with low self-esteem, leading to destructive behaviors that spiral out of control. When, as an adult, Darlene asks Jesus into her life, she shows that it did not mean automatic smooth sailing. The Change is a story of hope, growth, and strength. Join Darlene on her journey to discover and understand the true meaning of what Jesus has done for her--and for all who take him into their life.

Sixty Shades of Love

A Memoir

By: Darlene Matule

After publishing two historical novels, Darlene Matule felt compelled to tackle a current problem—the state of marriage in America—the always legal and often sacred joining of one man and one woman. It is no secret—life has changed drastically since 1956. She asked herself, How can I promote the amazing blessings that marriage can bring—in today’s climate? What promise can I bring to college students—today? To others? Matule’s answer is Sixty Shades of Love. Her memoir reveals how she and her husband are more in love after sixty years than they were on the day they were married—despite spiritual, marital, financial, in-law, and health problems that would cause most couples to shout, ”Enough!” Sixty Shades of Love shows millennials it is possible to find joy in a sacramental marriage. It encourages baby-boomers to give their vows another chance. It reminds seniors of the fulfillment they already have enjoyed in their own long-term commitment. Through the years, Matule found that communication, faith, determination, and the ability to adapt despite life’s surprises resulted in the most precious gift a couple can ever receive—a happy marriage.

The Texas Trails Series

A Morgan Family Series

By: Darlene Franklin,Susan Page Davis,Vickie McDonough

This set includes all six books of the Texas Trails Series: Lone Star Trail, Captive Trail, Long Trail Home, A Ranger's Trail, Cowgirl Trail, and End of the Trail. The six-book series is about four generations of the Morgan family living, fighting, and thriving amidst a turbulent Texas history spanning from 1845 to 1896. In Lone Star Trail, as much as Judson "Jud" Morgan dislikes the immigrant invasion, he can't help admiring Wande Fleischer. The immigrant is sweet and cheerful as she serves the Lord and all those around her. Can the rancher put aside his prejudice to forge a new future? Through Jud and Wande, we learn the powerful lessons of forgiveness and reconciliation among a diverse community of believers. In Captive Trail, Butterfield Overland Mail Company driver Ned Bright finds a woman, exhausted and injured, lying on the road. With hard work, Ned discovers Taabe Waipu's identity. He plans to unite her with her family, but the Commanche have other ideas. In Long Trail Home, Riley Morgan takes a job at the Wilcox School for Blind Children in an attempt for a new life after the Civil War. By helping the children and the pretty blind woman, Annie, he begins to find renewed hope. But when the school is in jeopardy of being closed and Annie's secret is revealed, Riley attempts to make peace with God despite an uncertain future. In A Ranger's Trail, Texas Ranger Buck Morgan is called to investigate the murder of Leta Denning's husband at the beginning of the Mason County War. He has ties to a German family involved with Dennning's death, which makes Leta question his impartiality. A tentative trail emerges...one forged by respect and bound by vengeance and forgiveness. In Cowgirl Trail, Maggie Porter is desperate to save her ranch as her father's health fails and the cowboys walk off the job. To everyone's surprise, she turns to the town's women for help. The cowgirls must herd, rope, and drive the cattle to the market. With only two days left, outlaws charge the small band in an effort to start a stampede. Will they lose everything? Where will their help come from? In End of the Trail, a high stakes poker game ends with Brooks Morgan holding the deed to his new friend Will's ranch, a vague promise to "take care of Keri," and Will's mysterious demise. When Brooks finally rides to the Raven Creek Ranch, he is greeted by a rifle pointed right at his chest. This is the "Keri" he promised to take care of. As Will's niece, Keri believes the ranch was promised to her. Keri and Brooks both want to save the ranch, but will their differences make that impoosible?
