      Sex trafficking is currently a hot news topic, but it is not a new problem or just a problem in "other" countries. Every year, an estimated 300,000 American children are at risk of being lured into the sex trade, some as young as eight years old. It is thought that up to 90 percent of victims are never rescued. Stolen is the true story of one survivor who escaped--more than once. First recruited while staying with her family at a hotel in Miami Beach, Katariina Rosenblatt was already a lonely and abused young girl who was yearning to be loved. She fell into the hands of a confident young woman who pretended friendship but slowly lured her into a child prostitution ring. For years afterward, a cycle of false friendship, threats, drugs, and violence kept her trapped. As Kat shares her harrowing experiences, readers will quickly realize the frightening truth that these terrible things could have happened to any child--a neighbor, a niece, a friend, a sister, a daughter. But beyond that, they will see that there is real hope for the victims of sex trafficking. Stolen is more than a warning. It is a celebration of survival that will inspire.

      Narodenie v černošskom gete, vyrastanie v neúplnej rodine a povesť jedného z najhorších žiakov v škole predurčujú chlapca na beznádejný osud. Avšak život môže priniesť nečakané zmeny. Príbeh sa sústreďuje na Ben Carsona, chlapca bez perspektívy, ktorý sa nielenže vyrovnáva s problémami v škole a sám so sebou, ale aj sníva o lepšej budúcnosti. Na konci jeho cesty sa z neho stáva svetoznámy neurochirurg, ktorý prináša nádej mnohým pacientom a ich rodinám. Príbeh „Zlaté ruky“ zachytáva Benovu odvahu, vytrvalosť, skromnosť a súcit, pričom čitateľ má možnosť nahliadnuť do jeho chlapčenského a neskôr študentského života, ako aj do prostredia významnej neurochirurgickej kliniky – Hopkinsovho centra. Carsonovo autobiografické rozprávanie inšpiruje najmä mladých ľudí, povzbudzuje ich k premýšľaniu o vlastných snoch a prekonávaní prekážok. MUDr. Ben Carson, absolvent Yalskej a Michiganskej univerzity, je primárom detskej neurochirurgie v Univerzitnej nemocnici Johna Hopkinsa v Baltimore a v roku 1987 vstúpil do histórie medicíny ako vedúci tímu, ktorý oddelil siamské dvojčatá spojené temenom hlavy. Cecil Murphey, autor viac ako 40 kníh, spolupracoval s mnohými osobnosťami na ich autobiografiách.

    • Ein kurzer Moment kann alles verändern: Ein geliebter Mensch stirbt, man verliert seine Arbeitsstelle oder man wird plötzlich schwerkrank. Auch Don Piper hat in seinem Leben einen solchen Moment erlebt. Er wurde bei einem schweren Autounfall so schwer verletzt, dass er für 90 Minuten klinisch tot war. In diesen Minuten durfte er die Herrlichkeit des Himmel erleben. Als er wieder ins Leben zurückkehrte, war alles anders. Bis heute leidet Don Piper unter den Folgen dieses Unfalls, und er hätte allen Grund, sich nach seinem alten Leben zurückzusehnen. Doch er hat gelernt, seine „neue Normalität“, wie er seine heutige Lebenssituation beschreibt, anzunehmen. Er sagt: „Ich kann über diese neue Normalität schreiben, weil ich mit absoluter Gewissheit weiß, dass es einen Himmel gibt.“ Don Piper möchte auch Sie ermutigen, Ihre Blickrichtung zu ändern. Schauen Sie nicht mehr auf das, was hinter Ihnen liegt, sondern vielmehr auf das, was vor Ihnen liegt. Machen Sie das Beste aus dem Hier und Jetzt.
