Sinopsis

In "A Buddhist Bible," Dwight Goddard presents a comprehensive anthology that distills the teachings, principles, and narratives found within various Buddhist scriptures and philosophies. Striking a balance between scholarly rigor and accessibility, Goddard employs a clear and engaging literary style, drawing from key texts such as the Pali Canon and Mahayana sutras. This compilation serves a dual purpose: it acts as a vital resource for those new to Buddhism while also serving as a reference for seasoned practitioners who seek a deeper understanding of the teachings that have shaped Buddhist thought across centuries. Dwight Goddard, a pivotal figure in the early 20th-century American Zen movement, was deeply influenced by both Eastern philosophies and his Western context. His exploration of Buddhist literature stemmed from a desire to demystify Buddhism for Western readers and promote interfaith dialogue. Goddard's own experiences with spiritual seeking and his engagement within the Buddhist community prompted him to compile this anthology, emphasizing the universality of spiritual truths that transcend cultural boundaries. I highly recommend "A Buddhist Bible" to readers seeking an insightful introduction to Buddhist thought. Whether you are an academic, a seeker of spirituality, or simply curious about Buddhism, Goddard's anthology offers profound perspectives that illuminate the path towards understanding mindfulness, compassion, and enlightenment.

    For Havyn Powell, growing up on her grandfather Chuck Bondrant's dairy outside the 1904 gold-rush boomtown of Nome, Alaska, offered all she needed. She had the love of her mother, two sisters, and grandfather. But now, at 23, Havyn realizes the stability of her life may soon vanish. Havyn is determined to find a way to keep the family together, but her grandfather's health is declining and everyone seems to be holding secrets from each other, including the handsome, dark-haired stranger who recently arrived. 
     
    John Roselli arrives in Nome looking for a steady, consistent job. He has grown tired of the promises of getting rich quick and just wants an honest job with honest pay. His grandfather once knew a Chuck Bondrant, and so when John arrives at the dairy, he's quickly offered a job--and a path to more if he wants it. 
     
    Havyn's plan for helping out the family means using her beautiful singing voice and her sisters' musical talent at a local roadhouse. They're an immediate hit, and it looks like her plan will be a success. But the spotlight brings with it dangerous eyes that covet Havyn and are jealous as she and John grow ever closer. But will they realize the peril before it's too late?

    "LORD, TEACH US TO PRAY!" LUKE 11:1 
    "Jesus never taught His disciples how to preach, only how to pray. He did not speak much of what was needed to preach well but spoke much of praying well. To know how to speak to God is more important than knowing how to speak to man. Not power with men, but power with God is the first thing. Jesus loves to teach us how to pray. 
    What do you think, my beloved fellow disciples? Would it not be just what we needed, to ask the Master to give us a month-long course of special lessons on the art of prayer? As we meditate on the words He spoke on earth, let us yield to his teaching, in the fullest confidence that, with such a teacher, we shall make progress. Let us take time not only to meditate but to pray. To busy ourselves at the foot of the throne, and be trained in the work of intercession." —Andrew Murray 
    "With Christ in the School of Prayer" offers a structured series of 31 short, concise, practical, and powerful lessons on prayer to fill the listener's heart with a hunger for God's presence. While holding firmly to Andrew Murray's classic teaching and theology and retaining the elegance of his writing style, this edition has been updated to make Murray's writing more accessible to modern readers. 
    It includes the following updates:A Study Guide to Ensure a Deeper Study of Andrew Murray's Original Message.Unabridged and Carefully Updated Text in Modern English.Updated Organization and Headings.An Active Table of Contents.Large Print Text. 
    Our earnest prayer is that you find this updated edition much easier to understand and that God would bless you with more desire to seek His face in His school of prayer.
