It All Counts

Christian Living

“If dogma or doctrine, bruises or baggage have locked you out of faith and belonging, Natalia Terfa's invitation is clear: It all counts. Her stories soften the corners of tightly held traditions to encounter the God who is opening doors and beckoning belonging. As someone who has had to carve out a place to fit my faith into church, Natalia invites me into seeing simple acts of ritual, belonging, care, and courage as practices of a living and evolving faith.”

Ordinary Blessings for Parents

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“Meta Herrick Carlson's words clarify and indict, affirm and subtly shift, spinning wonder out of the chaos of parenthood. Thumbing through this book is like walking a long hallway of memory, pausing deeply at moments that were swept away before being noticed. With Meta's help, attention and pause will help me bless the ordinary moments of beings who are becoming right in front of me.”

Thank you for finishing my Christmas shopping with this gift for everyone on my list.”
