DOWNLOAD EBOOKJournalist Abigail Pogrebin is many things—wife, mother, New Yorker—but the one that has defined her most profoundly is “identical twin.” As children, she and her sister, Robin, were inseparable. But when Robin began to pull away as an adult, Abigail was left to wonder not only why, but also about the very nature of twinship. What does it mean to have a mirror image? How can you be unique when somebody shares your DNA? In One and the Same, Abigail sets off on a quest to understand how genetics shape us, crisscrossing the country to explore the varied relationships between twins, which range from passionate to bitterly resentful. She speaks to the experts and tries to answer the question parents ask most—is it better to encourage their separateness or closeness? And she paints a riveting portrait of twin life, yielding fascinating truths about how we become who we are.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKGod doesn't bless us to raise our standard of living. God blesses us to raise our standard of giving, and that's where true joy is found. The New York Times bestselling author of Chase the Lion challenges us not to settle for half of what God offers when it comes to blessings—we are BLESSED to BLESS. His discovery started with a simple experiment. Whenever Batterson received a blessing, he would give a similar blessing away. If someone paid him a compliment or gave him a gift or went out of their way to help him, he would return the favor by doing something similar for someone else. We flip the blessing by blessing others in the way God has blessed us. That’s how the blessing becomes a double blessing. It turns giving into a game—one we can’t win because God will always outgive us! It’s an ancient truth found within the Abrahamic covenant: “I will bless you . . . and you will be a blessing.” In other words, we are blessed to bless. The first blessing is receiving, but it doesn’t end there. The second blessing is giving it away! That’s the double blessing. And that’s where double joy is found. In a day and age where the idea of blessing has been reduced to a hashtag (#blessed), Batterson challenges readers to pursue true, God-glorifying blessing and experience an exponential impact by participating in the double blessing. Don’t settle for half of what God offers. Discover how you can both get it and give it . . . in Double Blessing.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAbe and Abi were born twins. The twins were taken into a deep forest without clothing and left to be killed and eaten by wild animals or used as a sacrifice. Abe and Abi cried for their parents for comfort and food, but in vain—just because they were born twins. This barbaric act was carried out by the man responsible for their birth, their father. This was because having twins was considered a curse that befell the family, and that family would be excommunicated by the rest of the community if such evil of having twins ever came to light. This was the belief of some cities in the eastern part of Nigeria in the olden days, until the arrival of a missionary from Scotland by the name of Mary Mitchell Slessor. Mary made the people see twins as a blessing rather than a taboo by preaching and teaching. She stopped people from abandoning twins in the forest to be killed and eaten by animals or used as a sacrifice. May the soul of Mary Mitchell Slassor rest in perfect peace. Amen.
