Towards World Heritage
Historic preservation, whether of landscapes or buildings, was an important development of the nineteenth century in many countries. There is however surprisingly little understanding about how it took place, and research into it is narrowly focused. For example, generally landscape preservation from this time is examined separately from buildings; preservation is seen in terms of national narratives, or considered within the contexts of area studies, and it is usually seen from a specific disciplinary perspective. All of these later categorizations did not apply at the time and consequently, a very partial view is achieved. In order to begin unlocking a very complex phenomenon that has help...
Goodnight Sh'ma
A little boy says the Sh'ma before he goes to bed.
The Littlest Mountain
God realizes that the people of the world need rules to live by, and decides to speak to them from a mountaintop. Beautiful Mount Carmel, tall Mount Hermon, and majestic Mount Tabor all vie for the honor of being chosen. But little Mount Sinai is silent. Which mountain will God select?
The New Millennium Serial Killer
In March 2011, a major police investigation was opened in the search for missing Swindon local, Sian O'Callaghan. When taxi driver Christopher Halliwell was arrested, Detective Superintendent Stephen Fulcher didn't expect what happened next. After the body of another missing girl, Becky Godden-Edwards, was uncovered, the police had two murders on their hands and one suspect, but how many more unsolved murders could Christopher Halliwell be responsible for? The hidden cache of around 60 pieces of women's clothing and accessories that he led police to suggests that the number could be much higher than the two murders he has been convicted of. In The New Millennium Serial Killer, former police ...
In Our Image
“In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth...But something was missing...” Before creating humans, God said, “Let us make humans in Our image, after Our likeness.” In this playful new twist to the Genesis story, God asks all of nature to offer gifts to humankind—with the promise that the humans would care for creation in return. Then, woman and man were formed from the dust of the earth, in the image of God and in the image of all of nature. And it was very good, indeed. Whether you’re large like the whale, small like the ant, lazy like the lizard, or busy like the bee, this spirited story with its lively illustrations celebrates the interconnectedness of nature and the harmony of all living things.
The Grinning Killer: Chris Halliwell - How Many Women Do You Have to Kill to Be a Serial Killer?
In the early hours of 19 March 2011, 22-year-old Sian O’Callaghan left a nightclub in Swindon to make the half-mile journey back to her home. She was never seen alive again. The prime suspect in her disappearance, local taxi driver Christopher Halliwell, was arrested a few days later. Seemingly an ordinary family man, in reality, Halliwell regularly visited sex workers and viewed incredibly violent pornography. Chillingly, he had once asked a fellow inmate during a prison sentence in the 1980s how many people it was required to kill in order to be a serial killer. Not only did Halliwell admit to killing O’Callaghan, he then led police to the body of Becky Godden, a sex worker who had bee...

Hospitality, the Sacred Art
"The practice of deep hospitality can help us step into a more vital, vibrant embrace of this great adventure we call life-which includes our relationship with God, however you might define God. ... It is an invitation to walk through life with a liberating posture of receptivity, reverence, and generosity."
Sacred Attention
Just One Moment of Close Attention Can Be a Prayer to God "Does God communicate through the natural world? Through the slug on the compost pile, the leaf on the lawn, the stone tumbled on the beach, the air that feeds my lungs, the dreams that fill my nights? How will I know unless I pay attention?" --from the Introduction Paying attention is rarely easy to do. It requires focus, patience and a willingness to slow down--traits that are hard to come by in this hurry-up world. But close attention to even one small piece of creation, one object, person, routine, image, word or scripture, can become a prayer to God, opening a channel of communication between you and the Divine to allow for deep ...
