The Gift of Story
In this companion book, Milton shares insights about storytelling related to themes ranging from mythology and human identity, to social justice, changing from the inside out, tragedy, awe and mystery, hope and promise, and more. But the story is always central; the story is always "the thing." The videos include key biblical stories about seminal biblical characters â Eden and Eve, Jonah, the prodigal, Mary and Elizabeth, the Ethiopian eunuch, Zacchaeus, Mary of Magdala, Sarah â¦and more. In The Gift of Story, Milton romps through a lively reflection on what stories mean to humans, "the story-telling animal," how we can all tell stories to enrich our lives, and rejoice in the complimentary role that stories and the logic of science play in our lives. It's a fun read full of lively, refreshing stories and insights. The Gift of Story picks up where Ralph Milton's live StoryFest events leave off. Those events â led by gifted musicians, artists, and storytellers Linnea Good, Don McNair, Allison Rennie, Donald Schmidt, as well as Ralph Milton â were designed to provide a spiritual "shot in the arm, focusing on evocative Bible stories and personal faith experiences."
The Essence Of Julian
Many people, including trained church professionals, find Julian of Norwich very difficult to read. Translations in modern English don't even seem to help. It's hard to get past her medieval Catholicims to her radically inclusive ideas - to the insights that made Julian a spiritual giant. The Essence of Julian is the most accessible and lively translation of this difficult medieval masterpiece yet available. It is simply much easier to read and understand than any previous treatment of Julian's writings enthusiast will be satisfied for many years to come.
