Creating Change
Music, dance, drama, visual art, writing - what role do the arts play in our spiritual life? Some people believe the arts are essential to their spiritual practice because they bring moments of insight and transformation to their journey. Creating Change explores the many ways the arts cultivate spiritual depth and transformation. Stories from artists and congregations reveal how the arts breathe new life into prayer, worship, theological reflection, and the work of justice. It looks at how the arts allow us to express our spirituality with an individuality and depth that truly celebrates our connection to God.

Adaptation to Loss Through Short-term Group Psychotherapy
While the loss of a loved one through either death, separation, or divorce is a normal human experience, it can arouse underlying conflicts that trigger pathological reactions. For clinicians working with individuals who suffer from such pathological grief, this volume integrates theory, practice, and research to describe a time-limited, interpretive group therapy approach. Demonstrated to be successful in a large-scale controlled clinical trial, the approach provides an innovative alternative to such traditional forms of treatment as individual psychotherapy or group counseling.

The Spirituality of Bread
This book is about bread -- why we make it, how we make it, what it has to teach us, the memories it gives us. Bread offers connections -- as Jesus connected with is friends; as we connect with our children; as Demeter, the goddess of grain, bound herself to her daughter. People of every culture are tied together by the breads they bake. Bread helps us to remember who we are and whom we love. Bread gives us calm. It is the opposite of fast food. You cannot make bread in ten minutes and the slow work of kneading and shaping and meditating heals our over-schedules lives. In this beautifully and lavishly illustrated book -- you can almost smell the aroma of fresh-baked bread -- Donna Sinclair shares recipes and memories, stories and ideas about precious loaves that stir memory and bring pleasure. You can make your own bread (and memories) with this book; or simply contemplate the wisdom of the stories found within as you visit your local baker or make morning toast.

Adventures of the God Detectives
For ages 6-10. When seven-year-old Tabitha hears a message from Jesus while listening to a Bible story, she tells her three best friends -- Emma, Jacob, and Fu-Han (who are aged eight and nine). Intrigued by her experience, the friends find themselves wondering about how God speaks to people, and to kids in particular. And with that simple question, the God Detectives are born. 'Adventures of the God Detectives' is about a group of young friends who form a club to discover the variety of ways God invites us into a relationship. The book contains seven stories. Each story includes 'Notes for Adults', and 'Questions to consider with Children', designed to help parents talk with children about spiritual experiences. The book chronicles the discoveries Tabitha, Emma, Jacob, and Fu-Han make, as they meet a native elder and a Franciscan monk, encounter a little sisters 'imaginary companion', interpret a dream, wrestle with their conscience, read the Bible, and pray.
The Midwife's Story
Still your busy heart with The Midwife's Story: Meditations for Advent Times. In this season of waiting, it is easy to get caught up in the tension and the stress. There is great value in taking quiet time for reflection. The Midwife's Story will allow you to ready yourself spiritually for the birth of the Divine. As the title suggests it is a poem about a very special midwife who may have been present at the birth of Christ. The poem, which reminds us that holiness comes to the world through a physical body, is accompanied by beautiful illustrations that are meant to help open your mind and heart, and bring new awareness and insight. The second half of the book invites you to delve deeper, by exploring a different theme for each of the poem's eight sections. The Midwife's Story will assist you on the journey through Advent and help you learn what healing or growth God is wanting to bring to birth in you.
