Author: Fernando Sarráis, Palabra 2019
Summary: The main component of a happy family is love between all members, but especially the spouses. When people feel loved, they feel valuable and their self-esteem is positive. Positive self-esteem is the basis for the emotional security and independence of people who are psychologically mature. All members of the family have to be very aware that a happy family is more important than success in the extra-familial world, as the family and family tasks are often put in second or third place. In this book, the author tries to help spouses to love intensely, faithfully and perseveringly, so that the marriage bond is a source of happiness for the spouses and the basis for an education for the maturity and autonomy of their children.
Author: L. Lomong & M. Tabb, Thomas Nelson Publishers 2012
Summary: This book is the biography of a young man who, against all odds, is able to pursue a dream. In this book, Lopez Lomong tells how he went from being a poor child soldier in Sudan’s civil war to becoming an American Olympic athlete sponsored by Nike, how he survived the terrible Kakuma refugee camp without his family, and how he managed to escape from a future of hopelessness. Lomong’s life is proof that in the greatest darkness, God can shine light and offer hope to those who have lost it. An example of courage, hard work and tenacity to achieve one’s ideals.
