These poems are revelations received from the Holy Spirit. They talk about Gods love for us, authority in the name of Jesus, the supernatural power of the Holy Spirit, power in Gods word and in prayer, and dealing with issues of the flesh. They draw on different situations people find themselves in, challenge doubt and fear, confront events in the world, and show us how to apply the power of Gods word in our lives. These revelations are deeply moving and spiritual and talk about the benefits of salvation. They encourage believers in prayer and fellowship with the Holy Spirit. They talk about the tools that Jesus gave us to confront and overcome some of the unique issues that believers face daily. Intense and rich in imagery, these poems speak to humankind, offering guidance, love, and reassurance. They clearly turn us to God, His word, authority in the name of Jesus, and the supernatural power of the Holy Spirit to change from our current way of thinking to Gods way. God wants us to hear from Him for ourselves. He has a unique message for each of us. He wants to talk to us about our dreams, our problems, our doubts, and our fears. Weve all got questions. And Hes got the answers we need. He truly loves us!

The author of The Blue Cotton Gown recounts living free and naturally against all odds—and discovering her true calling as a midwife—in this deeply moving memoir In her first, highly praised memoir, Patricia Harman told us the stories patients brought into her exam room, and her own story of struggling to help women as a nurse-midwife in medical practice with her husband—an OB/GYN—in Appalachia. Now, Patsy reaches back to the 1960s and 1970s, recounting how she learned to deliver babies and her youthful experiments with living a fully sustainable, natural life. Drawing heavily on her journals, Arms Wide Open goes back to a time of counter-culture idealism that the boomer generation remembers well. Patsy opens with stories of living in the wilds of Minnesota in a log cabin she and her lover build with their own hands, the only running water being the nearby streams. They set up beehives and give chase to a bear competing for the honey. Patsy gives birth and learns to help her friends deliver as naturally as possible. Weary of the cold and isolation, Patsy moves to a commune in West Virginia, where she becomes a self-taught midwife delivering babies in cabins and homes. Her stories sparkle with drama and intensity, but she wants to help more women than healthy hippie homesteaders. After a ten-year sojourn for professional training, Patsy and her husband return to Appalachia, where they set up a women's health practice. They deliver babies together—this time in hospitals—and care for a wide variety of gyn patients. They live in a lakeside contemporary home, though their hearts are still firmly implanted in nature. The obstetrical climate is changing. The Harmans' family is changing. The earth is changing—but Patsy's arms remain wide open to life and all it offers. Her memoir of living free and sustainably against all odds will be especially embraced by anyone who lived through the Vietnam War and commune era, and all those involved in the back-to-nature and natural-childbirth movements.

Jack and Meredith are non-identical twins. Their father died before they were born and now they both have to watch as their mother sinks further in to the grip of early-onset dementia. Jack's career has crashed and burned, all that remains is a Maserati and a nervous disposition. Meredith's world is also crumbling - the decomposing yogurt in her fridge a symbol of her newly-expired marriage. Her children, Jemima and Luke, offer little support, too consumed with the world of online dating and amateur taxidermy. One day, a throwaway comment starts Jack wondering if their father really died. As they begin to untangle the revelations, the twins are forced to ponder both the past and the future: their memories of their mother, their hopes for finding their father, and the fear of what's in their bloodline.
