Product: Dancing with a Porcupine: Parenting Wounded Children Without Losing Your Self
Relevance: Irrelevant
You’re a foster parent or you’ve adopted children who’ve already had some years in foster care or spent their crucial early moments in an orphanage. You want so much to help them heal, but here you are at the end of your own rope. The kids are often angry, needy, rude, resentful. In fact, they know too well how to push your buttons.

You feel guilty that, sometimes, you want to just quit. You feel inadequate. How can anyone bear the sadness and pain they’ve gone through and that is now your burden, too?

What can you do? How can you make it through the day? How can you help your kids while also taking care of yourself?

In Dancing with a Porcupine, Jennie Owens shares the compelling story of her struggle to save her own life while caring for three troubled children she and her husband adopted from foster care. How could she stay loving, giving, and forgiving in the midst of a daily battle with children acting out the rage, resentment, and pain of their own traumatic pasts? Is there such a thing as secondary trauma, and if so, what do you do about it? When faith, endurance, and creativity are not enough, what’s next?

Con 250,000 copias vendidas, Cuando ayudar hace daño es un clásico moderno formador-de-paradigmas en el tema del alivio de la pobreza y el ministerio a los más necesitados.

Enfatizando la pobreza del corazón y de la sociedad, este audiolibro expone la necesidad que cada persona tiene y como puede ser aliviada. El oyente, es guiado a comprender que la pobreza es mucho más que la simple falta de recursos materiales y financieros; y que conlleva mucho más que donaciones y caridad para solucionar el problema de la pobreza.

Este audiolibro expone los esfuerzos del pasado y del presente por parte de las iglesias, que sin querer, han debilitado a la gente que estan tratando de ayudar. Sin embargo, el objetivo central es presentar estrategias que desafíen a los cristianos a ayudar a los pobres a superarse. Enfocándose en Norte América y en contextos mayoritarios, Cuando ayudar hace daño cataliza la idea de que el cambio verdadero para la gente que vive en la pobreza no viene de fuera hacia dentro, sino de adentro hacia afuera.
