As their final days at university draw to a close and graduation looms like a dark cloud over the fragile lives of Names, Memory, and Kind - three strange souls with strange names - their reality becomes unrecognizable. Friends turn into acquaintances, homes become rooms, and life itself fades into a memory. A sudden and tragic death sets off a spiral of confusion and dread in their lives. Eerie apparitions and devastating betrayals begin to haunt them as they struggle to make sense of the crumbling world around them. But the price to pay for clarity might be their sanity. Something sinister has been stirring beneath their feet and above their heads. Whispers of horror, impatient to scream, prowl in the shadows, waiting to shatter existence itself. The boundaries between reality and nightmare can blur at any moment, dragging the three friends into a world of terror and pain that delves into the darkest corners of the human experience, and the not-so-human too. Are you having fun?

Look for yourself - here are a few quotes: "We are looking for something binding in a world full of freedom. A free bird looking for a cage? Which image does symbolise this thought?" "Loving someone is a decision you make every day. Start with yourself. Decide to love yourself every day." "I am an open book maybe you don ́t speak my language or have my intellect to understand me." "It is about time me being emotionally aware I am learning to see and to live in color. I see in color now I don ́t live my life in black and white anymore." "I love my body for the story it carries, but to them, it's just the physical form with its flaws and imperfections. They can't see the history behind my stretch marks or scars."

Bridging the gap between spirituality and the recovering community, Rising from the Dead: Stories of Women’s Spiritual Journeys to Sobriety tells the stories of alcoholic women in long-term sobriety whose faith-based rehabilitation healed and transformed their lives. Using the format adopted by Alcoholics Anonymous in telling their stories, each woman tells “how it was, what happened, and how it is now.” Their stories are first examined within the more secular models of treatment, and then in relation to theological categories and models. Illustrating the catastrophic nature of alcoholism as well as the hopeful path to recovery, this book offers a practical and valuable guide for professionals working in the Christian community to assist women suffering from addiction. Rising from the Dead describes the 12-step spiritual approach to treating addiction, and offers strategies for strengthening and developing the spiritual lives of those afflicted with this burden. This book examines the use of stories from a therapeutic and Christian perspective, and suggests models for therapeutic listening and counseling. It also covers narrative construction, issues with shame and guilt, threshold experiences, God language, and much more. An indispensable book on healing through communities of faith, Rising from the Dead: Stories of Women’s Spiritual Journeys to Sobriety is ideal for pastors, pastoral counselors, chaplains, parish nurses, and seminary faculty teaching in the area of addiction ministry.
