Patience

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Virtue is more than a philosophical contemplation; it's also the substance of a lived and lively faith, the stuff of life. Imagine this book, then, as a lab manual--a book to be used in the midst of activity, philosophy with genuine utility. Harned brings Patience into intimate conversation with our private concerns, like self-worth and vocation. But he makes Patience also a stimulating partner in conversation with our public life and worries.”

Practicing Imperfection

Prayer & Spiritual Formation

“Charles T. Dupree's Practicing Imperfection is a brief and delightful introduction to the practice and value of active meditation, of paying attention to the bountiful gifts held out to each of us in the precious moments we're allotted in life. Written with wit and charm, and in the accessible currency of everyday vernacular, this book is the work of a talented storyteller, thoughtful scholar, and wise priest.”

The Scroll of Anatiya

Fiction

“With the scriptural erudition of the Rabbi she is, and considerable imaginative gifts, Zoe Klein has created in Anatiya a warm, believable companion to an elder Jeremiah, whose quiet love reunites the aged prophet with the passion of love and faith that called him from youth to God and renders in their story a powerful tale of divine love incarnate.”
