Book Description
A testament of brokenness, Broken for Assignment was inspired by author Lorna Grace Sippo’s challenges that continually occurred in her life. Even though she loves God and is completely committed to him and his kingdom, there were seasons when she felt her life didn’t make sense. Nonetheless, she had a promise, on the one hand, and God’s purpose, on the other hand, to fulfill. She didn’t give up. She kept on walking with God, pressing on relentlessly and tirelessly. Throughout the journey, Sippo realized God cannot use a vessel that hasn’t been processed. Is it possible these events were God’s way of processing her so she could yield completely to his purpose for her life? The processing was necessary, and although it was a difficult experience, Sippo understood gold can only be refined and become beautiful when it goes through fire. Broken for Assignment narrates Sippo’s emotional but true story of a journey of brokenness, showcasing God’s way of doing things. It reflects God’s beauty in pruning and shaping. It highlights that walking with God demands intimacy, and the fruit is brokenness. It is a pathway toward promotion. In other words, the promise is obtainable by God’s standard.

Book Description
Disrupt the painful cycle of academic challenges and emotional distress When students struggle with learning, it can be stressful for both them and their teachers. Struggling learners are more likely to experience low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and behavioral issues—challenges that, combined with highly stressful learning experiences, can tip students into a trauma response that makes learning even harder. Overcoming the School Trauma Cycle explores the science behind how learning occurs in the brain, how it can be disrupted, and—most importantly—how to overcome the painful cycle of academic challenges and emotional distress. Inside, you′ll find: What the latest research tells us about how mental health issues can disrupt the learning process How academic and mental health challenges can fuel each other Manageable, whole-class practices and targeted supports to meet struggling learners’ academic and emotional needs Opportunities to self-assess and reflect Many schools have increased their focus on trauma-informed teaching and social-emotional learning, but these approaches are too often pitted against academic rigor when they are really two sides of the same coin. To improve outcomes for all students, we must address their social-emotional needs alongside their academic ones. In Overcoming the School Trauma Cycle, you′ll discover empowering practices to help all students learn and thrive.
