Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. He spent a lifetime trying to earn his father's approval. Now, he faces a terrifying realization: he has been trying to earn God's love the same way. To his students, Dr. Daniel Mercer is a pillar of faith. As a respected theology professor, he has spent twenty years teaching the doctrine of… grace. But in the quiet of his own soul, Daniel feels nothing but the pressure to perform. When his father passes away, Daniel stands at the graveside dry-eyed and numb, unable to grieve a man he never truly knew. Returning to his childhood home to settle the estate, he uncovers a hidden journal and a stack of war letters that reveal a side of his father he never saw-a man broken by trauma and silenced by his own unhealed wounds. As Daniel reads, the walls he has built around his own heart begin to crumble. He is forced to confront a devastating truth: he has projected the image of his silent, distant earthly father onto God. He has built a life on the exhausting belief that love is a wage to be earned, not a gift to be received. Caught between a theology he teaches and a reality he lives, Daniel must navigate a profound spiritual crisis. Can he learn the "language of intimacy" that was never spoken in his childhood home? Can he break the cycle of emotional distance before it destroys his relationship with his own children? And is it possible to finally stop performing and simply be a son? Father, Silent is a poignant, deeply moving novel about the "father wound," the silence of God, and the difficult journey from a faith of striving to a faith of resting. Perfect for readers who: Are navigating the deconstruction and reconstruction of faithHave struggled with "father wounds" or family traumaEnjoy the literary and spiritual depth of authors like Wm. Paul Young or C.S. Lewis (fiction)Are tired of easy answers and crave an honest look at suffering and graceStop performing. Stop earning. Start receiving. Discover the freedom of being a beloved son in Father, Silent. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "Faith is not certainty. Faith is showing up in the darkness and calling it light."- Maria KosWhat do you do when God's silence becomes impossible to ignore?Claire Brennan has knelt beside her bed at 5:43 a.m. for more than twenty years. She knows the feel of the carpet beneath her knees and… the steady rhythm of her husband Michael's breathing behind her. But lately, the word Amen no longer sounds like trust. It sounds like a door closing on a room where no one answers.In this deeply honest and quietly powerful novel, After Amen: What Remains When Prayer Ends explores the long winter of the soul - the fragile season when life unravels and the language of faith no longer comes easily.A Family in CrisisClaire is living through a season of relentless loss.Her mother is slowly disappearing into dementia, no longer remembering her daughter's name.Her husband, Michael, has lost the career he spent thirty years building and has withdrawn into a silence that threatens to pull them both under.And her daughter, Emma, has stepped away from the faith she was raised in, asking for "space" far from her parents' expectations.A Journey of EnduranceThis is not a story of miracles or easy answers.It is a story about the architecture of ordinary days.It is about: The Practice of Presence - sitting beside someone who no longer recognizes you and discovering that holding a hand can be its own kind of prayer.The Weight of Small Losses - how the slow unraveling of a marriage can hurt more than sudden catastrophe.The Theology of Waiting - what it means to stand watch for a morning that feels endlessly delayed.Small Resurrections - finding hope not in grand moments, but in a bird returning to a feeder, a brief conversation, or the courage to show up when you feel empty.Who Is This Book For?Written with the contemplative voice of Polish-born theologian Maria Kos, After Amen is for anyone who has ever knelt beside a bed and struggled to pray.It is for marriages that endure not because life is easy, but because two people choose presence when certainty is gone.It is for those who count birds at the feeder - and call it hope.After Amen is a quiet reminder that showing up is enough.That even when the night is long and grief feels heavy, morning is still coming."There are seasons when survival is enough. When simply enduring becomes a testimony. That is faith too. That is love too. That counts."Order your copy today and discover the grace hidden in the silence. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. What do you do when God doesn't answer? When faith crumbles under the weight of unanswered prayers? When the theology you've been taught can't hold the reality of suffering?Sarah's daughter Emma was supposed to have a bright future-a promising college student, full of life and dreams. Then,…without warning, a mysterious illness struck, leaving Emma bedridden, in constant pain, unable to tolerate light or sound. What doctors promised would be temporary stretched into months, then years. And Sarah's prayers-desperate, faithful, unceasing-went unanswered."In the Wilderness: A Mother's Journey Through Unanswered Prayer" is a raw, unflinching account of one mother's journey through the darkest valley of faith. This is not a story of miraculous healing or triumphant faith. This is a story about what happens when the miracle doesn't come, when God remains silent, when everything you believed is shattered by ongoing, unrelenting suffering.This book is for: - Caregivers who have sacrificed everything for chronically ill loved ones- Parents watching their children suffer with no answers, no cure, no end in sight- Anyone whose prayers have gone unanswered and who has been told their faith isn't strong enough- Those who have lost their faith or are hanging on by a thread- People tired of triumphalist Christian narratives that don't match their lived experienceThrough Sarah's journey, we witness the collapse of prosperity gospel thinking and the slow, painful reconstruction of a belief system that can hold both suffering and God, both doubt and love, both unanswered prayers and stubborn hope.But this is also a story about survival. About the support group of caregivers who taught Sarah she wasn't alone. About small mercies-unexpected kindness, moments of beauty, tiny graces-that appeared when she needed them most. About learning that faith is not about getting what you want, but about continuing to show up, continuing to love, continuing to engage even when nothing makes sense.What readers are discovering: "This book gave me permission to doubt, to be angry at God, to admit that I don't have it all figured out. It's the most honest book about faith I've ever read.""I've been a caregiver for seven years, and no one has ever put into words what I've been feeling. This book made me feel less alone."Maria Kos writes with the authority of someone who has walked through the fire and emerged transformed-not triumphant, not certain, but alive, honest, and still believing in a God she doesn't fully understand. Her theology is grounded in the biblical tradition of lament, in the reality of a God who can handle our anger and doubt.This book will not give you easy answers. It will not promise that if you just have enough faith, everything will work out. It will not try to make your suffering meaningful or redemptive.But it will offer you something more valuable: the companionship of someone who understands, the assurance that you are not alone, the permission to doubt and question and rage at God, and the stubborn hope that love persists even in the darkest places.Because survival is enough. You are enough. And you are not alone.If you're in the wilderness, this book is for you. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Are you living a life that looks successful on the outside, but feels completely hollow on the inside? In a world that demands men be unbreakable, a silent epidemic has taken root. It isn't a sudden tragedy or a visible failure. It is what Maria Kos calls "A Sin Without a Name"-the slow, sys…tematic neglect of one's own emotional soul that turns a vibrant life into a series of mechanical motions. The Cost of "Man Up"For generations, men have been told to push through, to stay strong, and to keep their struggles to themselves. But this strength comes at a devastating price: emotional numbness. In A Sin Without a Name: When Neglect Becomes a Way of Life, Maria Kos unmasks the toxic myth of the stoic man. She explores how the habit of neglect-ignoring your needs, silencing your pain, and burying your desires-leads to a life where you are physically present but emotionally absent. In this book, you will discover: The Anatomy of Numbness: Why you stopped feeling, and how "survival mode" became your permanent state of being.The Illusion of Strength: How the walls you built to protect yourself have become the walls of your prison.The Impact of Absence: Why being "fine" is destroying your relationships with your partner, your children, and yourself.The Path to Presence: Practical insights on how to "thaw" your emotions and move from mere existence to authentic living.A Roadmap for the "Emotionally Dead"This is not a typical self-help book filled with empty platitudes. It is a deep, psychological, and spiritual exploration of the male heart. Maria Kos, drawing from her extensive experience facilitating men's support groups, provides a mirror for those who have forgotten who they are. Whether you are a man who feels like a ghost in your own home, or a woman trying to reach the man she loves across a growing chasm of silence, this book offers a bridge.Why Read This Book?Validation: Realize that your numbness is not a weakness or a character flaw-it is a response to years of neglect.Clarity: Learn to put a name to the nameless void you've been carrying.Transformation: Shift from Man Up to Coming Alive."Healing requires honesty before it requires hope." Stop going through the motions. Break the cycle of neglect. It is not too late to reclaim your life. It is never too late to begin living. About the AuthorMaria Kos is a therapist and facilitator based in Warsaw, specializing in emotional health for men. Through her "Coming Alive" workshops, she has helped countless individuals transition from numbness to presence. She believes that vulnerability is the ultimate form of strength and that transformation is possible at any age. Scroll up, click "Buy Now," and start the journey back to yourself today.

Softcover. Condition: Sehr gut. Dust Jacket Condition: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 208 Seiten, 163 Abb. gebunden mit Schutzumschlag - Schon 1909 erkennt der Publizist Arthur Roessler die Bedeutung des damals 19-jährigen Egon Schiele. In der Folge rührt er für den jungen Künstler die Werbetrommel, führt ihn in die wenigen Sammlerzi…rkel der Stadt ein und vermittelt ihm damit seine ersten Aufträge. Auch in Roesslers eigener Kunstsammlung war Schiele mit einer exzellenten Werkauswahl vertreten. Diese Werke bilden den Grundstock der bemerkenswerten Schiele-Bestände des Wien Museums. Die erstmalige Rekonstruktion der Sammlung, ergänzt um Leihgaben aus dem In- und Ausland, steht nun im Mittelpunkt der Betrachtungen in dem vorliegenden Band. Am Beispiel von Schieles biografischem Werdegang fragt die Veröffentlichung nach den Mechanismen des Beziehungsgeflechts in der Kunstszene und in der Wiener Gesellschaft des frühen 20. Jahrhunderts.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. What do you do when God doesn't answer? When faith crumbles under the weight of unanswered prayers? When the theology you've been taught can't hold the reality of suffering?Sarah's daughter Emma was supposed to have a bright future-a promising college student, full of life and dreams. Then,…without warning, a mysterious illness struck, leaving Emma bedridden, in constant pain, unable to tolerate light or sound. What doctors promised would be temporary stretched into months, then years. And Sarah's prayers-desperate, faithful, unceasing-went unanswered."In the Wilderness: A Mother's Journey Through Unanswered Prayer" is a raw, unflinching account of one mother's journey through the darkest valley of faith. This is not a story of miraculous healing or triumphant faith. This is a story about what happens when the miracle doesn't come, when God remains silent, when everything you believed is shattered by ongoing, unrelenting suffering.This book is for: - Caregivers who have sacrificed everything for chronically ill loved ones- Parents watching their children suffer with no answers, no cure, no end in sight- Anyone whose prayers have gone unanswered and who has been told their faith isn't strong enough- Those who have lost their faith or are hanging on by a thread- People tired of triumphalist Christian narratives that don't match their lived experienceThrough Sarah's journey, we witness the collapse of prosperity gospel thinking and the slow, painful reconstruction of a belief system that can hold both suffering and God, both doubt and love, both unanswered prayers and stubborn hope.But this is also a story about survival. About the support group of caregivers who taught Sarah she wasn't alone. About small mercies-unexpected kindness, moments of beauty, tiny graces-that appeared when she needed them most. About learning that faith is not about getting what you want, but about continuing to show up, continuing to love, continuing to engage even when nothing makes sense.What readers are discovering: "This book gave me permission to doubt, to be angry at God, to admit that I don't have it all figured out. It's the most honest book about faith I've ever read.""I've been a caregiver for seven years, and no one has ever put into words what I've been feeling. This book made me feel less alone."Maria Kos writes with the authority of someone who has walked through the fire and emerged transformed-not triumphant, not certain, but alive, honest, and still believing in a God she doesn't fully understand. Her theology is grounded in the biblical tradition of lament, in the reality of a God who can handle our anger and doubt.This book will not give you easy answers. It will not promise that if you just have enough faith, everything will work out. It will not try to make your suffering meaningful or redemptive.But it will offer you something more valuable: the companionship of someone who understands, the assurance that you are not alone, the permission to doubt and question and rage at God, and the stubborn hope that love persists even in the darkest places.Because survival is enough. You are enough. And you are not alone.If you're in the wilderness, this book is for you. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability. Kos, Maria (illustrator).

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Are you living a life that looks successful on the outside, but feels completely hollow on the inside? In a world that demands men be unbreakable, a silent epidemic has taken root. It isn't a sudden tragedy or a visible failure. It is what Maria Kos calls "A Sin Without a Name"-the slow, sys…tematic neglect of one's own emotional soul that turns a vibrant life into a series of mechanical motions. The Cost of "Man Up"For generations, men have been told to push through, to stay strong, and to keep their struggles to themselves. But this strength comes at a devastating price: emotional numbness. In A Sin Without a Name: When Neglect Becomes a Way of Life, Maria Kos unmasks the toxic myth of the stoic man. She explores how the habit of neglect-ignoring your needs, silencing your pain, and burying your desires-leads to a life where you are physically present but emotionally absent. In this book, you will discover: The Anatomy of Numbness: Why you stopped feeling, and how "survival mode" became your permanent state of being.The Illusion of Strength: How the walls you built to protect yourself have become the walls of your prison.The Impact of Absence: Why being "fine" is destroying your relationships with your partner, your children, and yourself.The Path to Presence: Practical insights on how to "thaw" your emotions and move from mere existence to authentic living.A Roadmap for the "Emotionally Dead"This is not a typical self-help book filled with empty platitudes. It is a deep, psychological, and spiritual exploration of the male heart. Maria Kos, drawing from her extensive experience facilitating men's support groups, provides a mirror for those who have forgotten who they are. Whether you are a man who feels like a ghost in your own home, or a woman trying to reach the man she loves across a growing chasm of silence, this book offers a bridge.Why Read This Book?Validation: Realize that your numbness is not a weakness or a character flaw-it is a response to years of neglect.Clarity: Learn to put a name to the nameless void you've been carrying.Transformation: Shift from Man Up to Coming Alive."Healing requires honesty before it requires hope." Stop going through the motions. Break the cycle of neglect. It is not too late to reclaim your life. It is never too late to begin living.
