Into the Wilderness
No one is free from the struggle with sin. Not only is sin part of being human, but the true nature of sin is widely misunderstood. Into the Wilderness provides a unique interpretation of sin as a basic self-absorption that grips every human being and is the source of unhappiness. Historically the notion of sin has been divided into easily understood categories. The traditional approach used the Seven Deadly Sins—pride, greed, gluttony, anger, envy, sloth, and lust—as a framework. But a deeper understanding of sin demands three additional categories: fear, dishonesty, and despair. Into the Wilderness explores these ten specific sins with power and clarity. The book goes beyond an analysis of sin by opening the path from sin to redemption, from unhappiness to joy, finally laying out a path from the despair of sin to the joy of spiritual renewal and freedom. The book concludes with an addendum which answers the book’s fundamental question—how can one move from the enslavement of sin into God’s redeeming grace? The addendum presents a detailed prayer discipline designed to open the way forward.

Uncommon Prayer
Almost everyone, from devoted Christian to searching agnostic, has thoughts and questions about prayer. Through his ministry, Episcopal priest Kenneth Swanson discovered that many people, despite their individual beliefs, needed to be taught how to pray in order to grow closer to God. Written clearly and persuasively, Uncommon Prayer traces different spiritual movements and different types of prayer, telling the stories of men and women, from the dawn of biblical history through the modern day, who have grappled with their relationship with God--offering lessons for each of us on how to pray comfortably and effectively. Unique in its approach, fascinating to read, and inspiring in its simplicity, Uncommon Prayer is an uncommonly useful and important book that will appeal to those who are yearning for greater meaning, deeper spirituality, or who are simply seeking a new sense of intimacy with God.
Enter the Kingdom
Although many moral systems have been developed across history, Enter the Kingdom goes far beyond understanding virtue simply as the means to achieve moral goodness. It is a full presentation of the uniqueness of Christian virtue. Although the Christian virtues are rooted in natural virtues, they are distinct in two ways. First, Christian virtues can only be known as gifts of grace. Second, Christian virtues enable people of faith to enter deep intimacy with God. Enter the Kingdom has a chapter on each of twelve virtues that most enhance Christian spiritual formation. All twelve virtues are grounded in Scripture and Christian tradition. Some, incorporating spiritual concepts that are impossi...
