Answering the Contemplative Call
Prayer & Spiritual Formation
“. . . invites us on a journey of love where everyone is welcome and worthy, and it is impossible to get lost. It is a journey that necessarily begins within, and leads ever-deeper inward, to a place of resonant silence. Bountiful quotes from mystics who have walked the path before us provide a series of luminous stepping-stones for own adventure.”
Prayer & Spiritual Formation
“Drawing together an array of colorful visionaries and sublime poets, this book is an elegant guide to the essence of those awakened souls who transcend religiosity while simultaneously opening our hearts to the love of their Master, Christ.”
Christian Living
“This book is a luminous love song to the body of the earth, a sober celebration of interconnection, an elegant entreaty and a bold proposal for a new way, the renewal of the ancient way, a way of healing and holiness and prophetic enkindling. This book is a prayer. Intelligently shaped and beautifully written.”
Prayer & Spiritual Formation
“Eternal Heart is a generous invitation to enter into the heart of the mystery. Carl McColman offers a lens of love through which to gaze upon eternal gifts hidden in the very center of all that is. Such sacred seeing transforms what it beholds.”
Counseling, Grief & Mental Health
“A beautifully written meditation on the death of a baby and the grief of a family. Wrenching and wry, insightful and outrageously authentic. Andrea Lingle travels where grief takes her, grasping and releasing and ultimately cleaving to the hand of the invisible Holy One whose love reveals itself as so vast only a broken heart could possibly contain it.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“To read this groundbreaking book is to accept an invitation to a party thrown by the most revered thinkers, visionaries, and changemakers the world has ever seen, who are reaching across the veil to set us free. All I could do was take my shoes off at the door and listen quietly as I feasted. Surprise! The luminaries conversing in these pages are anything but dour and judgmental. They celebrate the sacred nestled in the heart of the ordinary, making liberation for all seem not only possible but swiftly forthcoming.”
Prayer & Spiritual Formation
“What a bold, vibrant, and potent translation of this mystical masterpiece! As she did with the perennial wisdom jewel Cloud of Unknowing, Carmen Acevedo Butcher once again breaks open the stilted and patriarchal language that encrusts our most life-giving spiritual treasures and makes The Practice of the Presence of God easy to grasp and impossible to resist. Its author, the humble seventeenth-century sage Brother Lawrence, reminds us that every task, no matter how ordinary, is a fresh opportunity for drawing near to the Friend. And that the more we take refuge in this intimacy, frequently repeating such phrases as 'My God, I am all yours,' or 'God of love, I love you with all my heart,' or 'Love, create in me a new heart,' the more often we find ourselves simply resting in the presence of Love Itself.”
“In this playful, poetic book, philosopher and musician Brie Stoner distills the intoxicating essence of her own path to reclaiming the sacred feminine. Her words spill like song onto the page, mingling her brilliant mind and generous heart, offering us a luminous path to our birthright of creativity and connection.”
