Two dozen select prayer poems to learn from and live with. Poetry and prayer are closely related. We often look to poets to give language to our deepest hopes, fears, losses - and prayers. Poets slow us down. They teach us to stop and go in before we go on. They play at the edges of mystery, holding a tension between line and sentence, between sense and reason, between the transcendent, and the deeply, comfortingly familiar. When Poets Pray contains thoughtful meditations by Marilyn McEntyre on choice poems/prayers and poems about prayer.

This provocative audiobook invites you to create your own spiritual path based on often-suppressed ancient principles and contemporary practices. Using the elements (earth, water, fire, air, ether) rather than traditional patriarchal hierarchies, this "holy book" is designed to connect each individual to their universal - but often denied - powers. Wild woman Danielle Dulsky takes you deep as she explores and embraces sacred feminine archetypes such as the mother goddess, the crone, and the maiden.

In This Beautiful Truth, Sarah Clarkson shares her own encounters with beauty in the midst of her decade-long struggle with mental illness, depression, and doubt. In a voice both vulnerable and reflective, she paints a compelling picture of the God who reaches out to us in a real and powerful way through the "taste and see" goodness of what he has made and what he continues to create amid our darkness. "To recognize and trust God's gift in pain," she writes, "empowers us to create and love as powerful witnesses to God's healing love in a hopeless world."

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 117
Vowing at an early age "to be a poet or nothing at all", Hermann Hesse rebelled against formal education, focusing on a rigorous program of independent study that included literature, philosophy, art, and history. One result of these efforts was a series of novels that became counterculture bibles that remain widely influential today. Another was a body of evocative spiritual poetry. Published for the first time in English, these vivid, probing short works reflect deeply on the challenges of life.

In this carefully curated selection of everyday reflections, Richard Wagamese finds lessons in both the mundane and sublime as he muses on the universe, drawing inspiration from working in the bush-sawing and cutting and stacking wood for winter as well as the smudge ceremony to bring him closer to the Creator. Embers is perhaps Richard Wagamese's most personal volume to date. Honest, evocative, and articulate, he explores the various manifestations of grief, joy, recovery, beauty, gratitude, physicality, and spirituality-concepts many find hard to express.

With the imagery of a poet and the reflection of a philosopher, David Whyte turns his attention to 52 ordinary words, each its own particular doorway into the underlying currents of human life. Beginning with "Alone" and closing with "Work", each chapter is a meditation on meaning and context, an invitation to shift and broaden our perspectives on the inevitable vicissitudes of life: pain and joy, honesty and anger, confession and vulnerability, the experience of feeling besieged and the desire to run away from it all.

For companions, he has only such teachers as Rumi, John of the Cross, Hildegard of Bingen, Dag Hammarskjöld, and Thomas Merton, and as he walks, he engages their writings with the natural wonders he encounters, demonstrating how being alone in the wild opens a rare view onto one's interior landscape, and how the saints' writings reveal the divine in nature.

Publisher's summary
In a world shrouded by darkness, where the very essence of hope has been outlawed, emerges a tale of unwavering faith, unbreakable unity, and the indomitable strength of the human spirit. "Children of the Book," penned by the masterful storyteller Isabella Hawthorne, invites you on a journey through a dystopian landscape where the forbidden becomes the foundation for a revolution of the heart.
In a time when the Bible has been banned for decades, and the memory of its teachings suppressed, a group of unlikely heroes emerges. Among them are a band of resilient children, forged by the crucible of their desolate reality, and a wise, lonely old man who carries the secret of a lost world within his heart.
As the children embark on a perilous path to discover the forbidden knowledge contained within the pages of the Holy Bible, their lives become a testament to the power of faith. Led by the fearless youngsters, they navigate a treacherous journey, learning to read in secret, sharing stories that transcend the boundaries of time, and embracing the teachings that hold the key to a brighter future.
With each revelation, the children's once-tenuous bonds grow stronger, and their purpose becomes clear: to spread the wisdom of the Bible's sacred verses to a world starved of hope. But their audacious mission does not go unnoticed, and the oppressive ruler who has held the world in his grip for so long is determined to extinguish this spark of rebellion.
In "Children of the Book," Isabella Hawthorne masterfully weaves a tale of courage, resilience, and the enduring power of faith. As the children's movement gathers momentum, uniting people from all walks of life, the oppressive regime is faced with an unprecedented challenge. The streets once haunted by fear are now alive with the defiant songs of a burgeoning revolution.
Through the eyes of the children, the old woman, and old man, and the countless souls who join their cause, we witness the birth of a new era.
