Researching Life Stories

Researching Life Stories critically and pragmatically reflects upon the use of life stories in social and educational research. Using four life stories as examples, the authors apply four different, practical approaches to demonstrate effective research and analysis.As well as examining in detail the four life stories around which the book is written, areas covered include:* Method and methodology in life story research* Analysis* Reflections on analyses* Craft and ethics in researching life* Policy, practice and theory in life story research.Throughout the book the authors demystify the issues surrounding life story research and demonstrate the significance of this approach to understanding individual and social worlds.This unique approach to life story research will be a valuable resource for all social science and education researchers at undergraduate and postgraduate level.

The compelling story of heroic women across the country who, despite personal trauma, found grace in difficult times and transformed their personal adversity into pay-it-forward wins by founding nonprofits that help and sustain others, mother to mother. In the midst of environmental chaos, economic uncertainly, and an endless array of health issues, mothers remain the backbone of our families and exponentially impact their communities. Such is the case of the brave women featured in A Mother's Grace: Healing the World One Woman at a Time. Author Michelle Moore is founder and president&nbsp;of Mother's Grace, an award-winning nonprofit organization that supports thousands of mothers and their children in crisis each year. She endured overwhelming trauma as a young girl when her mother died suddenly, and later struggled with divorce, cancer, and a son with juvenile diabetes. She begins by recounting how women in her circle of mom friends helped heal her childhood wounds and empowered her to claim victories in adulthood. Along the way, through divine intervention, she meets the ten remarkable women featured here whose personal tragedy-to-victory stories changed her forever. Readers seeking guidance during the challenging times we all face in life will find inspiration and hope as they meet mothers who have lived through dire poverty, the death of a child, a spouse's suicide, terminal childhood cancer, and devastating natural disaster. The poignant and powerful stories of how each found the grit and grace to not only defeat these challenges but also turn them around to impact the world is enlightening and motivating. Finally, Moore calls readers to rise from the depths of their challenges and gives them the tools to do so. Lessons from the moms in this book provide specific life strategies anyone can use to improve her situation and the world around her--one woman at a time.

A Chapbook of poems by Michelle Moore.    The poems in THE DEEPEST BLUE reclaim the confessional and assert that it is not the mode or subject that determine a poem's permanence but the quality of the language, the authority of its tone, and the urgency of its obsessions and passions. These dark, brooding poems will appeal to those who have been to the bottom of "the deepest blue."

My eyes were opened to the spiritual realm at a very young age. As I go through the challenges and battles I have faced from early childhood through my young-adult life, I explore the weapons of warfare the Bible clearly lays out for us. As I journey through Ephesians 6, I explore what each piece of the armor of God protects and how to use it.  My goal is to impart wisdom from today’s difficulties the modern-day woman faces—marriage, children, financial hardships, weight issues—and divulge how spiritual warfare plays its part in all of these areas of life. I don’t want us to give up or give in to life’s ever-increasing demands, but to take back from Satan what God has given us! I challenge you not just to cope, but to Arm Yourself!
