  Alchemy is one of the world's most ancient practices of unification with spirit, God, Goddess, or whatever term you wish to assign to a greater consciousness. 
  In this work, which comprises a series of lectures delivered in the early 2000's, Maja D'Aoust takes us on a journey to explore the history of what Alchemy is in different cultures, timelines and creative practices, to shed some light on this often misunderstood spiritual technique.  Delving into Taoism, Kabbalah, European sources such as Paracelsus, and examining the science behind the implications of making homunculi and Golems, this volume is a thorough, scholarly researched, deep dive into one of the most esoteric subjects a seeker can come across.  With references and quotes by some of the greatest historical multicultural authors in the field, you won't want to miss this enlightening journey into understanding the Alchemical wisdom traditions.

  Marshall McLuhan was the greatest prophet of the digital age. In the 1960s, McLuhan, a Canadian literary theorist, turned his attention toward the budding and befuddling electronic age. Like most prophets, McLuhan became one through a fascination with God. Prophets divine their wisdom from a source, and Digital Communion shows that McLuhan's was his own Catholic faith. In other words, the greatest prophet of the digital age was an ardent Christian. A reconsideration of his vision can change the way we view the online world. 
   
   
   
  A Catholic convert, McLuhan foretold a digital age full of blessings and sins: a world where information was a phone call or keystroke away, but where our new global village could also bring out the worst in us. For him, mass media was a form of Mass. McLuhan thought that while the print world was visual, the electric world—especially television—was a medium of touch. It enveloped us. For McLuhan, God was everywhere, including in the electric light. 
   
   
   
  Digital Communion considers the religious history of mass communication, from the Gutenberg Bible to James Joyce's literary forerunners of hypertextual language to McLuhan's vision of the electronic world as a place of potential spiritual exchange, in order to reveal how we can cultivate a more spiritual vision of the internet—a vision we need now more than ever.

  "So what are you? Go back where you belong!" 
   
   
   
  Majority white American culture has historically marginalized people of color, who at times feel invisible and alienated and at other times are traumatized by oppression and public discrimination. This reality leads to a particular kind of aloneness: ethnic and racial loneliness. 
   
   
   
  An Indian American immigrant who grew up in white Southern culture, Prasanta Verma names and sheds light on the realities of ethnic loneliness. She unpacks the exhausting effects of cultural isolation, the dynamics of marginalization, and the weight of being other. In the midst of disconnection and erasure, she points to the longing to belong, the need to share our stories, and the hope of finding safe friendships and community. Our places of exile can become places where we find belonging—to ourselves, to others, and to God.

  “Spiritually rewarding and uplifting.” — Cardinal Timothy Dolan, Archbishop of New York 
  New York Times bestselling author and editor at large of America magazine Father James Martin reveals how we can turn to Christ completely in mind, heart, and soul. Martin offers a portrait of Jesus, using his last words on the cross to reveal how deeply he understood our predicaments and shows us what it means to be fully human. 
  Each meditation is dedicated to one of the seven sayings:“Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.”“Today you will be with me in Paradise.”“Woman, this is your son”  . . .  “This is your mother.”“My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”“I thirst.”“It is finished.”“Father, into your hands I commend my spirit.” 
  With the warmth, wisdom, and grace that infuse his works, Father James Martin explains why Jesus’s crucifixion and death on the cross is an important teaching moment in the Gospels. Jesus’s final statements, words that are deeply cherished by his followers, exemplify the depth of his suffering but also provide a key to his empathy and why we can connect with him so deeply.

  The Book of Enoch is a fascinating ancient text attributed to Enoch, the great-grandfather of Noah, offering a rich and visionary glimpse into early Jewish mystical and apocalyptic thought. Written centuries before the common era, it explores the origins of evil through the tale of the fallen angels (Watchers) who corrupt humanity, the birth of the Nephilim, divine judgment, and the eventual restoration of righteousness. Though excluded from most modern biblical canons, it was highly influential in Second Temple Judaism and early Christianity. This edition presents the complete translated text in a dynamic audiobook format, narrated with clarity and energy by John Riddle, making it accessible and engaging for modern listeners interested in biblical history, esoteric traditions, and ancient prophecy.
