About this listen
What do a ladder and a cat have in common? Or grief and a slice of apple pie?
Welcome to Weaving Metaphors, a soulful and surprising journey into the art of seeing meaning in the everyday. With warmth, wit, and a touch of midnight musing, author Linda A. Lavid invites you to explore unlikely pairings—two random nouns at a time—and discover how they connect, clash, or conspire to tell us something deeper about life.
Part journal, part creative practice, and part spiritual whisper, this book is for thinkers, feelers, wanderers, and anyone who believes the world is more than it seems. Each short chapter offers a metaphor and reflection, making it perfect for daily inspiration or contemplative play.
You don’t have to be a poet. Just curious.
Start anywhere. Finish anywhere.
The magic is in the weaving.

As an ancient threat rises, Felina must choose: save a world that betrayed her… or the girl who gave her a reason to fight.

As you read through this book, it will become clearly apparent why I have titled it, “Pentecostal Fanaticism”. False prophets and their false prophecies will be revealed. False apostles and fake healings will be exposed. The Pentecostal practice of being “slain in the spirit” will be examined and biblically refuted. The prosperity gospel, which is primarily proclaimed in Pentecostal and charismatic churches, will likewise be scripturally refuted, and some of the famous hucksters who preach it will be exposed. The Pentecostal practice of speaking in non-human languages in church will...
