The words are so familiar they almost lack meaning, a Christianese version of "live, laugh, love." Even non-Christians are familiar with the Love chapter of 1 Corinthians, read at weddings, painted on decorative signs, and preached regularly from the pulpit. But what happens when these verses are taken seriously? What would it take for someone to live out the Love chapter as literally as possible?<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />That was the question Kim Sorrelle set out to answer during her yearlong experiment. Using 1 Corinthians 13 as a road map, she focused on one phrase at a time, seeking to understand its true meaning and how it could motivate every daily action. She also looked at the ones we do not think too deeply about: love does not boast, does not dishonor others, doesn't keep a record of wrongs, and more.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />In her attempts to live the Love chapter to the letter, Kim journeyed all the way to Haiti, where she met people who both tested and displayed love to its limits. From irritating employees to sexist short-term missionaries to curse-wielding women to the profoundly kind nuns, her encounters are filled with rueful self-reflection and comical commentary, as well as a new understanding of the nuances and power of true love in action.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Kim's transformation into someone who truly loves like Jesus will challenge readers to think more deeply about how they can manifest love in their own lives and will reveal the power of Christlike devotion that is unwearied and humble, contented and forgiving. Her exploration is an incredible encounter with the filling, strengthening love of God -- a love that truly never fails.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #2b00fe; font-family: arial; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box;"><b>CONNECT WITH KIM HERE:</b></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #2b00fe; font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"><span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box;"><b><a href="https://www.kimsorrelle.com/">Website</a></b></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #2b00fe; font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"><span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box;"><b><a href="https://tiny.one/kimsfacebookpage">Facebook</a></b></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #2b00fe; font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"><span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box;"><b><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/kim-langlois-sorrelle-11079523/">Linkedin</a></b></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #2b00fe; font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"><span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box;"><b><a href="https://www.instagram.com/kimsorrelle/?hl=en">Instagram</a></b></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #2b00fe; font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"><span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box;"><b><a href="https://twitter.com/Kim_Sorrelle">Twitter</a></b></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #2b00fe; font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"><span style="background-color: white;"><b><a href="https://tiny.one/kimsorrelleyoutube">YouTube</a></b></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #2b00fe; font-family: arial; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box;"><b><br /></b></span></span></p><p class="font_7 wixui-rich-text__text" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-block: 0px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; pointer-events: auto; vertical-align: baseline;"><br /></p><p align="center" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 20.1pt; margin-right: 74.4pt; margin-top: 1.55pt; margin: 1.55pt 74.4pt 0in 20.1pt; text-align: center;"><br /></p><p><span style="font-size: 16px;"></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br /></span></p>Battered Hopehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04084857421183756543noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5922534140630607175.post-67440315366305632432023-08-15T09:13:00.003-07:002023-08-15T09:13:33.060-07:00Do You Know One of Medical Profession's Most Horrific Dirty Little Secrets?<div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>ATTENTION: Anyone with back issues in need of surgery MUST read this first. </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Dr. Ardavan Aslie is a <b>board-certified spine surgeon</b> who received his undergraduate<br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;">education at the University of California, Berkeley, where he double-majored in<br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;">physiology and genetics.

The challenges of full-time practice and many twenty-four-hour shifts in the high-stress NICU always complicated issues with Susan’s children but also provided her the privilege of caring for thousands of critically ill newborn infants.</span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #0f1111; margin: -4px 0px 14px; padding: 0px;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box;">Susan always felt that her career and accomplishments in medicine were equally as rewarding as raising three children. It was the constant attempt to balance these two worlds – physician and mother - that was so daunting a task. Susan believes that most, if not all, working mothers are similarly challenged as they attempt to manage their work and being a good mother. </span><span class="a-text-italic" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-style: italic;">So Many Babies</span><span style="box-sizing: border-box;"> describes Susan’s experiences of finding resilience and endurance throughout her career as a physician and mother. It is an entertaining and reassuring story for working mothers.</span></span></p>
