Publisher's Description

Are you ready to live your best life? To harness the loving power of God's Spirit, regardless of the physical and emotional circumstances you face? No matter how high the mountain you have to climb, let the empowering mystery of one of the most transformative psalms in the Bible provide hope in seemingly hopeless situations. Praying Psalm 46 provides support and wisdom for meeting the challenges of the stinkin' stuff of this world. It is the path to an extraordinarily powerful personal relationship with the Spirit, as told by Sharon, an ordinary woman facing the last stage of a terminal illness. Power and discernment begins with "Be still and know that I am God." This wife and mother used the last six weeks of life to show the path opened by the sustaining power of God's word, and the wonder of a personal relationship with the Spirit. Spiritual strength and wisdom makes even the most daunting of challenges surmountable. In the beyond-natural stillness flowing from the psalm, the mystery and application of all of the Bible are unlocked.

“This is a must-read! Stuart Schwartz is smart, caring, compassionate, and funny all wrapped in one. His ability to draw us into the intimate loss of a loved one while at the same time offering such encouragement. Schwartz is a true wordsmith, painting a world of hurt and hope. You won’t stop reading until you know how much Sharon loved Stuart, loved life, and truly lived for God. Be Still and Know is a true blessing!”

Bruce Kirk

“Yogi Berra, shalom, Shakespeare, faith, Lou Gehrig, healing—seemingly unrelated concepts, woven together with a message that can teach everyone life-enhancing ways to get through ‘life’s stinkin’ stuff.’ Told in the first person and describing real life events, this book has something for everyone; the religious and the atheist, the young and the old, the practical and the cynic, can learn for how to deal with it. Give it a read.”
