First Edition
Softcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. As longevity expands so too does the reality that increasing numbers of people become Nobody's Child Anymore. Unlike most books on grieving the loss of a parent, Barbara Bartocci takes a comprehensive approach from caring for a dying parent through finding new meaning beyond grief. Barbara Bartocci, who has lost both of her parents, speaks from experience and offers poignant vignettes approaching hard questions with compassion and a wealth of practical wisdom. Nobody's Child Anymore is an immensely helpful and comforting resource for anyone caring for a dying parent, mourning the loss, caring for the remaining parent and seeking new meaning beyond grief. Introduction When our parents die and we are adults, we're expected to say, This is an appropriate death. My father . . . my mother . . . lived a full life. It is their time. I'm okay with that. But we are not okay with it. Losing a parent--at any age--is a profound loss. It is such a primal connection, that of parent and child. No matter what your age, no matter what the circumstances of your rearing, no matter how loving or how lethal your relationship, it's impossible to completely ignore the people who gave you life. You can divorce a spouse but not your parents. There is that ultimate tie--the genetic inheritance that somehow entwines us no matter how hard we may try to disconnect. As society ages, and more people experience this inevitable passage, people are beginning to realize that it?s not an easy loss just because your parents are in their 60s, 70s, 80s, or even 90s. I was surprised at the depth of my pain when my parents died. And since there isn't yet a lot of cultural support when adults lose their parents, I had to feel my way, as if walking through an unfamiliar forest. I have written this book as a gentle guide through the forest of feelings you may be encountering. It is not a practical manual--turn to other sources for help in planning a funeral or settling an estate. Rather, I share my own experience and the thoughts and experiences of others as a source to ease your soul-pain. The four parts of this book parallel the four-fold experience of loss through which we pass. It begins when we are called upon to care for one of our parents and we come to the difficult realization that Mom or Dad is dying. Then, after the loss, we struggle with the pain of our grief and perhaps some unresolved issues in our relationship with our parents. At the same time, we are often called upon to offer comfort and support to our surviving parent. We may then lose a second parent and experience the special pain of becoming an adult "orphan." Grieving is a process that has its own time. But eventually, we come to some resolution of our pain and we complete our grief. I have learned that there is a special light that may come in the wake of our parents' leaving. I discovered, as you will, too, that in a deeper sense, our parents don't leave us. They become part of us. A SORIN BOOKS Publication Distributed by Ave Maria Press.

Softcover. Condition: Good. Robert M. Hamma and Kathryn A. Schneider believe the faith of pure romance and the sacred reality of matrimony calls a couple to recognize the spiritual dimension of their lives together. Through Good Times and Bad helps spouses recognize God not only in their words of love, but in routine, and not always peaceful, interaction.Hamma and Schneider, who have been married for 15 years, insist nothing is more important in marriage than the gift of self. Through Good Times and Bad, developed from the ebb and flow of their life together, helps couples appreciate the various ways to give and receive love.Hamma and Schneider offer reflections on how to maintain true and lasting intimacy, including the difficult task required of all loving partners: striking that delicate balance between security and freedom, holding on and letting go. Filled with simple prayers, Through Good Times and Bad consists of thoughtful exercises couples can use either alone or together to think deeper about their relationship. The prayers address a wide variety of experiences within marriage, from the joy of making love to problems with money. Hamma and Schneider remind couples that prayer can help them see things differently, revealing realities that lie below the surface and serving as a sounding board for things that would otherwise go unsaid or unnoticed.Through Good Times and Bad gives the bride and groom, whether in their first or fiftieth year together, the encouragement necessary to thrive within the context of their own religious tradition or personal search, and to intensify the spiritual dimension of their marriage.

Softcover. Condition: Good. 1. Silent Hope is about living a rewarding spiritual life in an endless desert -- and the hope that makes it possible. It is for those who choose spiritual risk rather than security, when we surrender to a hunger for God that demands of us nothing less than raw faith and persistent hope, in the midst of God's silence. It is a journey that the author invites us to take in the company of great Christian, Jewish and Islamic mystics including Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Abraham Heschel, Augustine, Julian of Norwich, and Kwaja Abdullah Ansari. In fifty meditations and prayers, rooted in the wisdom of these great mystics, contemporary spiritual seekers are given an opportunity to better and more deeply understand our own struggle with the silence of God.

Softcover. Condition: New. Attribute not applicable for product. What is it that makes life worth living? What makes the everyday, ordinary world extraordinary--even sacred? If we want to be truly alive there are few things we really need, a few sacred necessities: Amazement, Sanctuary, Stillness, Grace, Simplicity, Resilience, and Friendship.Unfortunately, we can't buy these things, nor can we force them to become a part of our lives. But if we are willing to accept rather than grasp at them, they will come to us as felicitous gifts waiting to be experienced and practiced. This is not simply a prescription for the good life; it is a gentle nudge to live with an open heart and a willing spirit.

Softcover. Condition: Good. Art has always been a major part of Jeri Gerdings life, whether teaching it in the classroom, practicing it as a lifelong hobby or using it as a psychotherapist to encourage her patients to translate their emotions into images. Because of that, Gerding always wanted to incorporate art with another passion of hers, prayer.In Drawing to God, Gerding shows those with or without a talent for art how to use drawing and painting as a way of opening to God. Gerding says art reveals new insight about what is presently of concern, and where we may be blocked in terms of personal and spiritual growth.With 15 art exercises, Gerding focuses on activities that increase awareness of our inner selves, others and God in the natural world. Drawing to God encourages us develop a prayer life through visual symbols difficult to put into words. The activities are simple and samples of artwork are provided.Art is not meant to be a primary form of prayer. It is meant to augment whatever an individual is practicing. Art helps us confront the uncertainty in our prayer lives and surrender to a process we cannot control. Because of this, we are able open up and make new discoveries about ourselves and our relationship with God.Drawing to God provides another method of prayer in which intimate thoughts and feelings can bring us closer to God. Gerding helps us release imagery from the unconscious in order to reveal parts of ourselves and God previously hidden from view.
