What are the signs and symptoms of inherited or internalized suffering? What are the avenues, the ways of release and healing from these burdens? How can we pray for communities -- families, churches, workplaces, nations, ethnic groups -- that have unhealed wounds and burdens?Release offers practical help to the reader through Christ-centered reflection, prayer, and biblically based meditations.
Why does forgiveness, so central in Jesus' life and teaching, seem much more difficult today? Why are we so often told we should forgive but so seldom shown the steps toward forgiveness? "Forgiveness is a perilous and volatile subject because it is so deeply intertwined with our communal and individual wounds," Flora Wuellner writes in the introduction. She explores how Jesus' Beatitudes promise us release from these wounds. You are invited to begin your journey to forgiveness with these hope-filled meditations on each of the Beatitudes. Whether you have deep wounds or are worn down by a multitude of seemingly small grievances, let Wuellener's unique insights into the Beatitudes introduce you to the renewed and healed life Jesus offers. Each of the 11 chapters includes a guided meditation to help you bring the truth of Jesus' words into your own life. Discover an open door to new, healed ways of relating to God, others, yourself, the communities around you, and future generations.
What awaits us after death? Flora Wuellner brings her deep wisdom and a lifetime of study, reflection, observation, and spiritual direction to shed light on what Jesus revealed about eternal life. Her writing offers hope and comfort to those who might be troubled by mixed messages about the afterlife from church or who are simply wounded from misunderstandings on the subject. Each chapter opens with a quotation from Jesus and develops the implications of those words, and closes with a guided meditation.

Stress, pain, grief… Do you need a miracle? They still happen, says Wuellner, a wise spiritual director, counselor and healer. She's a witness to their power and mystery. "Fifty years ago, as a young pastor, I probably would've denied it," she writes. "But over the years I have become humbler, listening and observing more. Yes, acts of wonder still occur surprisingly often in the physical world. "¦God works closely in, with and through us as every atom, each cell, every thought and action open to reveal God's love." Televangelists have sullied them, but the mystery of miracles fit into the biblical and theological framework of today. Rediscover their wonder and power. Focusing on seven of...

While embracing Jesus' healing ministry as a pastor, professor, reiki teacher, and spiritual guide, he has also wrestled with the meaning of Jesus' healing ministry and God's role in healing and sickness in a personal way ...
