Some things are totally unexpected. Stories are told of unexpected pregnancies, unexpected visitors, even unexpected rain or snow. But we don't always think of unexpected stories, especially when those stories have to do with a stand-alone book that suddenly wants to become a series. Such was the case with Conquering Your Goliaths: A Parable of the Five Stones. It was meant to be one story and Ms. Virginia Bean, or the stones, or God, just couldn't let go. And so what we have is the continuing saga, so to speak, of Ms. Virginia and her Goliaths. It's not enough that she has to figure out what she wants in life when it comes to a career; now she must share this life and all its intricacies with someone else and a child she may never have. What would you do if you were Virginia? Get angry? Forget the power of the stones? Forget all you have learned? Perhaps that. And more. The Feast: A Parable of the Ring, takes you on a journey even further into the depths of a woman's heart. For maintaining a career is one thing; staying married and childless is quite another. I'm hoping you pay a visit.
What happens to an unhappy woman who leaves her husband only to discover that she may have just made a terrible mistake? So horrible, her choice threatens to end her very life? Susan believes that the grass is greener on the other side. Not that her current life is bad, necessarily; it's just boring and lifeless, kind of like the old matted rug on her dining room floor. Susan thinks her marriage has just grown - well, old. Her husband, Bob, has gained tremendous weight and continues to gain, and his health suffers. She must work at a job she hates full-time to provide the little sustenance they have. He, on the other hand, works very little (because of his health) and prefers spending his days watching television or surfing the Internet. Besides, there's her problem of not getting pregnant that can't help but contribute to his unhappiness. Can Susan continue to live her life at the hotel knowing that she might be killed herself or imprisoned for life? Will she be able to find the real murderer with the help of the eccentric Ms. Martha Boaz?
Life isn't all about learning, it's about deliberate action and the workbook helps you to do that. ACT. I often tell my writing clients that writing is more than just getting the words on paper; it's inspiring others to travel beyond the reading. And the same is true for you. Conquering your Goliaths isn't just about a powerful, feel good story, it's about taking your journey to the next level; the level of doing. In my workbook, hands-on growth experiences are offered; from writing experiences, to going out into the community, to opportunities for change through prayer and communion with God. The workbook can be used in one of three ways; (1) as a workbook to be read and applied alone, (2) in a class situation created by the individual as an opportunity to share, or (3) as a tool in an Idea Creation Workshop offered by Kathryn. In her 2 day workshop, "Conquering your Goliaths Using the Five Stones," opportunities for growth give participants opportunities to learn, apply and share the skills they're taught.

The first history of Frank Lloyd Wright's exhibitions of his own work—a practice central to his career More than one hundred exhibitions of Frank Lloyd Wright's work were mounted between 1894 and his death in 1959. Wright organized the majority of these exhibitions himself and viewed them as crucial to his self-presentation as his extensive writings. He used them to promote his designs, appeal to new viewers, and persuade his detractors. Wright on Exhibit presents the first history of this neglected aspect of the architect’s influential career. Drawing extensively from Wright’s unpublished correspondence, Kathryn Smith challenges the preconceived notion of Wright as a self-promoter who displayed his work in search of money, clients, and fame. She shows how he was an artist-architect projecting an avant-garde program, an innovator who expanded the palette of installation design as technology evolved, and a social activist driven to revolutionize society through design. While Wright’s earliest exhibitions were largely for other architects, by the 1930s he was creating public installations intended to inspire debate and change public perceptions about architecture. The nature of his exhibitions expanded with the times beyond models, drawings, and photographs to include more immersive tools such as slides, film, and even a full-scale structure built especially for his 1953 retrospective at the Guggenheim Museum. Placing Wright’s exhibitions side by side with his writings, Smith shows how integral these exhibitions were to his vision and sheds light on the broader discourse concerning architecture and modernism during the first half of the twentieth century. Wright on Exhibit features color renderings, photos, and plans, as well as a checklist of exhibitions and an illustrated catalog of extant and lost models made under Wright’s supervision.
