Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Whether your loss is new or ancient, whether your grief is about death, a relationship estrangement, a move, or the shattering of a dream, any of these 30 stories may have something to say to you. Nancy Reeves' hope in sharing the tales in Found Through Loss: Healing Stories from Scripture and Everyday Sacredness is that readers will grow through their experience. Growth pushes the griever past limitations, enhances personal qualities, teaches healthier living patterns, and encourages the griever in the expression of their true self - a self that is made in God's image. The grieving people who shared their stories in this book were changed as their grieving diminished. In some way, they became more than they had been before their loss - they were found through loss. Concepts and strategies for healing provided in Found Through Loss can be used individually, in groups, or as material for sermons. Reeves reads selected stories on the two CDs provided in the book. The courage, the love, and the wisdom shown by these grievers are deeply touching. …

Paperback. Condizione: Good. Matthew Fox has done it again. As one of the most prophetic voices of our time, he has created a unique new project that speaks the concerns and hopes of all of us who care about creating lives of meaning - for ourselves, our communities, our children and our children's children. The A.W.E. Project reminds us that awe is the appropriate response to the unfathomable wonder that is creation - from the magnificence of galaxies, to the complex and brilliant process of cell-differentiation, and the miracle of the humanhand (product of 14 billion years of evolution). Imagine how much richer learning will be for all ages when we intentionally cultivate a sense of appreciation and wonder. A.W.E. is also the acronym for Fox's proposed style of learning - an approach to balance the three R's. This approach to learning, eldering, and mentoring is intelligent enough to honor the teachings of the Ancestors, to nurture Wisdom in addition to imparting knowledge, and to Educate through Fox's 10 C's. The 10 C's are the core of the A.W.E. philosophy and process of education, and include: compassion, contemplation, and creativity. The A.W.E. Project does for the vast subject of learning what Fox's Reinvention of Work did for vocation and Original Blessing did for theology. With passion and conviction, Fox turns conventional education upside down, shakes out what is no longer working, and offers visions of what can be.…

Hardback. Condizione: Very Good. Author John Bird invites us to discover how music touches us throughout our lives, from the pulsing rhythms we experience in the womb, to the music that will escort us out of life. In between, Bird shows how music connects us with family and friends and the world of the spirit; how it can express our authentic voice, both as individuals and as members of particular cultural traditions; how it strengthens and unites us during times of protest, and comforts us during times of loss. He shows how music and word combine to integrate mind and spirit, and how music and movement combine to integrate spirit and body. As with all titles in this series, The Spirituality of Music is beautifully illustrated with full-color photographs throughout.The simple singing of Happy Birthday renews our sense of personhood and identity within a community of friends and family. We seek the sublime sweep of violins at the symphony, the mighty roar of a massed choir, or the soaring scream of an electric guitar, to lift us out of our humdrum daily existence. Sometimes the music welds us for a few heightened moments, with all the other concert goers, into one mystical, organic whole, as together we celebrate our connection with one another and with the divine.Join John Bird as he journeys into the mystic heart and soul of the music that forms the soundtrack to our lives.…

They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these).

We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…
