This Book portrays the journey of a “Ms. Guided,” woman, who was raised in church, practiced religion but failed to develop a personal relationship with God. The story depicts how the lack of this vital relationship leads to unresolved childhood issues, diminished self worth, and a burning desire for wholeness and a search for unconditional love. Although this story resides in a fi ctional setting it reveals true to life, heartbreaking testimony of how a young woman makes a series of bad decisions that sends her into a downward spiral which create a deeper void in her life. Ms Guided is inspired and encouraged by the graphic testimonies of four persevering women. The women’s stories are also true stories deposited into a fi ctional setting and written in their own words. Teen pregnancy, single parenting, drug addiction, domestic violence, incarceration, suicide, and chronic illness are just a few of the things the women endure. A Sheppard (Rev. Gilbert Pickett Sr.) guides this transformation process through his support and scripture based words of wisdom. Ms. Guided undergoes a process of revelation, refl ection and change. She becomes whole, healed and demonstrates how God can take ordinary people and do extraordinary things. Through her journey, Ms. Guided develops an understanding of the Christian Development Process and comes to terms with the fact that; This Walk Ain’t Easy but Help is Along the Way.
There are as many as 3,400 correspondents covering the United States, among them approximately 600 print and broadcast correspondents from European countries. The importance of the foreign correspondents corps stationed in the United States and of their work has increased commensurate with the world preeminence gained by the U.S. after World War II. This book examines the state of research on European foreign correspondence from the United States and on the corps of journalists that produces it. Contributions from both European and American authors examine the varied conceptual issues regarding foreign correspondence, the methodologies that have been employed in studies carried out on both sides of the Atlantic, and the theories that were and could be tested when studying the subject. The book serves as a prolegomena to future studies on foreign correspondence and correspondents.
