Paperback. Condition: Very Good. In an easy, conversational style, the author, a nun for over forty years, gives readers the facts and fictions of the monastic life: how the choice is made; what lies behind the vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience; the nuts and bolts of monastic calling; what monks and nuns do all day; how they support themselves; and why they live as they do.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This is a book for people who are grieving, specifically for those who in their grieving are searching for answers to questions that might be called religious, for those who want to find hope when their world appears to be falling apart.A unique feature of the book is that it addresses those who grieve with the insights of two major traditions, Christianity and Judaism. These traditions assure those who grieve that they are not alone in their quest for insights, understanding, and meaning since both deal with such questions as: Are life and death part of a divine plan of reward and punishment? What kind of justice is it when some suffer and others die without pain? Must one accept death without kicking and screaming? Can we look forward to life after death? What is life after death like? How can a person move beyond grieving?The authors of this small book offer readers the opportunity to meet these age-old inquiries and to emerge with hope and acceptance in order to continue a meaningful life.Alan Weitzman is a Rabbi in the Reform movement in Judaism who has specialized in grief processes and is a grief counselor.…

Hardback. Condition: Fair. A journey through grief that has brought comfort to others for almost half a century. John R. Claypool had been a pastor for almost two decades, ministering to others who suffered through the loss of loved ones, when the loss came home in the death of his eight-year-old daughter, Laura Lue. This is the story of Claypool's own journey through the darkness, written through four sermons. The first was delivered just eleven days after his daughter's diagnosis of leukemia, the second after her first major relapse nine months later, and the third weeks after her death. The final sermon--a reflection on the process of grieving--was preached three years later.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. With increasing frequency, mainline Christians are challenged--by televangelists as well as by neighbors, friends, and coworkers--with the question: Are you saved? Not only are they stumped for an answer, but they may be unsure of exactly what salvation means. This book examines the concept of salvation in the Hebrew Scriptures and in the New Testament, showing readers that salvation, rather than simply the attainment of a faraway heaven in the afterlife, is also accomplished in the here-and-now through the Gospel of Jesus. In everyday language and an accessible, conversational tone, Saving Salvation helps Christians reach a deeper, more nuanced understanding of salvation than that provided by the dominant religious culture of our day. More than a heavenly reward for good behavior or right belief, Smith says, salvation is also the gift of God's abundant grace--through the love of family and friends, prayer, and service--in a Kingdom experienced here on earth. With its thorough grounding in Scripture, along with reflection questions posted on the Morehouse website, Saving Salvation will serve as an excellent resource for both individual, small group, and parish study.…
