Get A Hold Of Yourself
In these tumultuous times, readers will appreciate author Xolani Kacela’s Get a Hold of Yourself, an enriching book for persons seeking spiritual renewal, alignment and integration with their values, and practices that enrich daily living. Get a Hold of Yourself means using the spiritual gifts you possess and others unknown to you for creative living and engaging others who hold different beliefs, values, and spiritual convictions. The book examines faith through the lenses of many religious and secular traditions. Kacela’s writing is intelligent and even-paced, but not preachy. The book begins by defining faith and its implications for future-oriented life choices. Case studies explore the ways people grow from spiritual infancy to develop exemplary faith, an unshakable hope, coping strategy, and the unrelenting conviction that the human spirit can transcend suffering and despair. The author weaves contemporary spiritual practices with mysticism and guides the reader’s perception and experience of transcendence in everyday life. Readers will enjoy this excellent book, be they religious or spiritual, but not religious.

Introduction to Pastoral Counseling
Grounded in empirical research and richly illustrated with case studies, this introduction continues the theoretical, practical, and theological expansion of Pastoral Care and Counseling. Because of increasing cultural diversity and the fact that more training is done outside of seminaries in non-seminary related colleges and universities, there is fragmentation in the discipline. This makes a coherent orientation to pastoral care and counseling as a ministry increasingly difficult. To address this confusion, author, Loren Townsend, calls us to readdress basic understandings. He also makes the case that pastoral identity can function as a unifying concept.
The Angry Christian
In this work, respected scholar Andrew Lester discusses and incorporates the newest behavioral research models, contemporary biblical and theological scholarship, constructivist philosophy, and narrative theory into a comprehensive pastoral theology of anger.

A A Liberation for the Earth
In the encyclical Laodato Si, Pope Francis describes the earth as ‘the new poor’, opening it up as a place in need of liberation. The fate of the poor, the marginalised, and those on the wrong side of the western colonial project is inextricably tied up with the fate of the planet. In A Liberation for the Earth Anupama Ranawana explores the nexus between climate, race and the liberative potential of the cross. Reflecting on the entanglement between colonialization and the destruction of the planet, she considers how this entanglement is played out and resisted within faith based and secular ecological justice movements in Canada, Sri Lanka and the United Kingdom.
