Verse

by Carol L. Bridges

Love Poems to Joshua Coe is a raw, unfiltered collection of passion, heartbreak, devotion, and desire. These poems were written from a place of deep love — the kind that shakes your soul, pulls you in like a magnet, and refuses to let go. Inside these pages, Carol L. Bridges opens her heart completely. She writes about longing that aches, love that heals and destroys, desire that burns hot, and the emotional storms that come with loving someone so intensely it changes who you are. Moving from soft devotion to fiery passion, through heartbreak and into the quiet strength that comes after, this collection captures the painful beauty of loving someone with your whole heart — and learning that love should never destroy you. Every poem is personal. Every line is honest. Every page is a piece of a love story that is unforgettable. If you've ever loved deeply, wanted fiercely, broken silently, or felt your heart pulled toward someone you could never resist — these poems will speak to you. This is love in its truest form: tender, messy, passionate, overwhelming, and real. For mature readers 18+. Contains adult content and themes of toxic love and emotional abuse.

We build walls to keep the hurt out. Sometimes they keep love out too. Walls is a raw, honest poetry collection about letting someone in, and what happens when they don't stay. From the fluttering hope of a heart opening up, through broken promises, lies and the slow fading of love, to the dark, drowning depths of heartbreak, Carol L. Bridges writes the feelings most of us keep locked away. These poems are for anyone who has loved too hard, been left on the floor, smiled while dying inside, and still found the strength to wash ashore. Because sometimes the only one who can reach through the wall and save you is you. Content note: this collection explores mature themes, including emotional abuse, self-harm and depression.

***La Monja de Andalucía: Umbral del primer misterio.***  En síntesis, es una obra conclusiva, con una atmósfera intensa y barroca que combina drama histórico, misticismo y una exploración profunda de la psique humana. La novela se sitúa en la “Era de Trujillo” y sigue el vínculo prohibido entre un hombre obsesionado y una novicia andaluza atrapada entre la fe y las fuerzas espirituales que exceden la doctrina. **La obra ofrece:**  una voz narrativa sólida y distintiva. Un universo simbólico potente. Una historia de amor prohibido con resonancia universal y      elementos de sincretismo religioso poco explorados en la literatura contemporánea.    Un cierre mítico que convierte la historia en leyenda.

<https://rss.com/podcasts/tellifah-the-anchor/3241233> Witness Without Letting Fear Rule You\ Talking about your faith can feel intimidating. You may fear sounding awkward. Being judged. Not having the right answers. Creating discomfort. So sometimes, even when a door opens, we stay silent. But God has not given us a spirit of fear. 2 Timothy 1:7 says: “For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.” (2 Timothy 1:7 - NIV) This verse is beautifully balanced. God gives power, but also love and wisdom. To witness does not mean forcing, overpowering, or winning an argument. It means sharing, with gentleness, the hope God has placed within us. 1 Peter 3:15 invites us to be ready to give an answer for the hope that we have, but to do it with gentleness and respect. In Acts 4, believers do not ask for an easy life. They ask God to give them boldness to speak His word. Today, I encourage you not to let fear decide for you. Simply ask God for a right word, a loving heart, and peaceful courage. Prayer Lord, free me from the fear of speaking about You.\ Give me words full of love, truth, and wisdom.\ Help me speak of You with courage and humility.

Cast into exile and forced into a land scarred by war and forgotten magic, a lone traveler must survive the weather, beasts, skeleton armies, betrayal, and the growing weight of the blade he carries. As his journey pulls him deeper into a world of ancient powers and buried truths, every step brings him closer to a final test that may cost him more than his life. Told entirely in verse, The Traveler is a dark fantasy journey about survival, identity, and what is left when everything familiar is stripped away.

When I was a freshman in Bible college, our deaf professor offered us a letter grade of extra credit if we were able to correctly compile a life of Christ from the 4 gospels. No outside sources other than the 4 gospels. I was allowed to use a bible times map. I suggest 4 bookmarkers. The reading alone is definitely worth the effort. I enjoy doing this hands on bible study now and then from scratch. You can use my trailmarkers if you get lost.  The easiest way to do this is to combine Matthew and Mark, they're quite alike. Afterwards, add Luke, then John.
