Описание: Written by a woman of distinction, this brave memoir is an inspiration for survivors to break their silence. Rosenna Bakari's expression of truth about healing from childhood sexual abuse presents irrefutable evidence that trauma occurred, in spite of the squeaky-clean surface. When Dr. Bakari created Talking Trees, Inc., an empowerment organization for adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse in 2010, she had no idea that her own story would forge the mission to invite survivors to the healing journey.5-star reviews by Readers' FavoriteRomuald Dzemo states "Too Much Love Is Not Enough: A Memoir of Silence of Childhood Sexual Abuse by Rosenna Bakari is a memoir that looks at the silent suffering of a woman who experienced sexual abuse and trauma in her childhood, and who was coerced into silence by a culture that protects aggressors instead of victims. She writes: "I had kept the rape a secret since age seven, and even kept it a secret from myself. To this day, I have no clear memory of my brother violating me." It's an experience that is shared by many women who are violated in their childhood - they are either forced into silence or are driven by shame to remain silent to a point that they even deny it ever happened. In this memoir, the author courageously tells her story, exploring the unhealthy dynamics in her family. Readers understand how what happens in our childhood can determine the quality of our psychological and emotional health as we grow into more mature adults. Readers will understand the silent tears of the protagonist, encounter her in moments of frailty, and learn how coping mechanisms, which include silence, can lead to more suffering. This is a heartbreaking yet inspiring story, one that encourages abused women not to surrender to silence and allow the pain to eat them from within, but to seize the courage to face the evil by naming it and speaking about it. This is a story about healing from someone who, for many years, covered her pain in other passions. Readers will understand that at some point one has to have the courage to open the wound, for it is only then it will cease to fester and can start to heal. Rosenna Bakari brings into her writing her expertise in psychology and helps readers understand the different wrong ways they have been taught to deal with childhood sexual abuse. The narrative in Too Much Love Is Not Enough: A Memoir of Silence of Childhood Sexual Abuse is insightful and emotional, driven and focused, and the book offers powerful lessons to readers." Ruffina Oserio 5-star review state that the book is a "compelling memoir that answers the question: What does it take to heal from childhood trauma and sexual abuse? Readers encounter a woman who gives the impression that she is healthy and successful, hiding her pain behind poetry, her pursuit of education, and her martial arts. Rosenna Bakari's memoir is a powerful gift to women who have suffered sexual abuse in childhood and anyone who feels pushed to the wall through silence after being hurt sexually and deeply. In this book, the author allows readers to touch her pain, speaking about her vulnerable humanity with a lot of respect and courage. This is a memoir with a powerful psychological bedrock, a book that explores the psychology of sexual hurt and the ugly place of silence in a culture that encourages people to mask their pain, no matter how gruesome it may be. The writing is confident and filled with insight."
Bravely, this memoir is a UV light revealing the dreadful stains of silence. Rosenna Bakari's expression of truth about healing from childhood sexual abuse presents irrefutable evidence that trauma occurred, in spite of the squeaky-clean surface. She offers a rare validation of the harm of silence for adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse. When she founded Talking Trees (an empowerment organization for adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse) she had no idea that she would champion the cause through the telling of her own story.
Rosenna's effort to live her adult life as if childhood sexual abuse never happened supported her approach to personal and professional trials. In spite of her self-motivation to overcome every negative effect of childhood sexual abuse, all of the systems upon which she relied deepened her pain. To her dismay, achievements of family, financial stability and earning her Ph.D. in psychology bumped up against her trauma as she hid thoughts of suicide and accumulating health concerns.
Rosenna brings to life the process of recovery from early life trauma and unravels the misperceptions and coping styles that often evolve, but no longer serve us as adults. Her achingly honest personal account brilliantly captures her bravery to forge ahead in full self-acceptance. She tells how she relied on unconventional means, including poetry and martial arts, in her search for the healing she knew was possible. Her writing is engaging and intense, leaving a little mystery and surprise as she pulls readers into her experience as a traveling soul weaving through betrayal, bitterness, and sadness in a world that felt hell-bent on breaking her spirit. Her story is a beacon of hope for survivors no matter where they are in their healing journey. For everyone else, it is an opportunity to understand why "silence is not a quiet space."

Описание: Attract kids to church, the logic often goes, and you get parents in the pews. All that's left, then, is to get the kids out of the way. Here children's ministers David Csinos and Ivy Beckwith draw on research in human development and spiritual formation to show how children become disciples and churches become centers of lifelong discipleship. For too long, the local church has focused primarily on programs for children rather than ways of doing ministry with children. But in light of emerging missional movements, the church is changing and forming a new kind of ecclesial culture. And children's ministry must follow suit. Csinos and Beckwith propose a new way of thinking for these modern churches--they suggest that children can contribute to our theological understandings, as well as invest in and practice Biblical justice just like adult church members. Here is a unique resource that explores children's ministry in light of true spiritual formation and discipleship.
