In Health Care Policy and Practice: A Biopsychosocial Perspective, Moniz and Gorin guide students through the development of the American health care system: what it is, what the policies are, and how students can influence them. Part I focuses on recent history and reforms; Part II examines the system’s structure and policies; and Part III explores policy analysis and advocacy, and disparities in health based on demographics and inequities in access to care. The book concludes with a discussion of the impact of social factors on health and health status. This new, fifth edition has been fully updated to include the Trump administration’s efforts to "repeal and replace" the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and to integrate content throughout the text on the impact of the ACA in recent years. In addition, new content on health disparities for the LGBTQ community has been added.

God’s Welcome: A Co-Creative Vision of the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius for Women By: Cynthia Byers Walter While remaining true to the original Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius, God’s Welcome presents the exercises in a more dialogical format that respects the range of experience of twenty-first century seekers. Conceived as a response to the issues women typically face when making the Exercises, this book appeals to anyone interested in a deeper, co-creative, and cooperative relationship with God through Jesus Christ. Using the Ignatian pattern of a daily discipline of prayer, God’s Welcome takes the seeker through a journey of about nine months, in which spiritual growth is informed not only by Holy Scripture, but by the scripture of daily life and experience.

Are you in bondage to your childhood? Do you suffer from a deep seeded loneliness that you think no one knows about? Are you unable to forgive no matter how hard you try? This is my story of how with God's help I was able to claim victory and enter into His joy. A joy I could only read about in the Bible... yet it always seemed unattainable no matter how hard or how long I prayed. It was a long and drawn out journey learning how to fully and wholly surrender my will over to the Father. My hope is that by reading my story your journey to wholeness can be shortened. That you too can receive victory and begin entering in to the joy of the Lord.
