  Marcus Aurelius

  Written in Greek by an intellectual Roman emperor without any intention of publication, the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius offer a wide range of fascinating spiritual reflections and exercises developed as the leader struggled to understand himself and make sense of the universe. Spanning from doubt and despair to conviction and exaltation, they cover such diverse topics as the question of virtue, human rationality, the nature of the gods and the values of leadership. But while the Meditations were composed to provide personal consolation, in developing his beliefs Marcus also created one of the greatest of all works of philosophy: a series of wise and practical aphorisms that have been consulted and admired by statesmen, thinkers and ordinary readers for almost two thousand years.

  Between Two Rivers - Ancient...

  Moudhy Al-Rashid

  Thousands of years ago, in a part of the world we now call ancient Mesopotamia, people began writing things down for the very first time. 
   
   
   
  What they left behind, in a vast region between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, preserves leaps in human ingenuity. But they also capture breathtakingly intimate, raw, and relatable moments, like a dog's paw prints as it accidentally stepped into fresh clay, or the imprint of a child's teeth. 
   
   
   
  In Between Two Rivers, historian Dr. Moudhy Al-Rashid reveals what these ancient people chose to record about their lives. We find a lullaby to soothe a baby, countless receipts for beer, and the messy writing of preschoolers. We meet an enslaved person negotiating their freedom, an astronomer tracing the movement of the planets, a princess who may have created the world's first museum, and a working mother struggling with "the juggle" in 1900 BCE. 
   
   
   
  Millennia ago, Mesopotamians saw the world's first cities, the first writing system, early seeds of agriculture, and groundbreaking developments in medicine and astronomy. With breathtaking intimacy and grace, Al-Rashid brings their lives―with all their anxieties, aspirations, and intimacies―vividly close to our own.

  Difficult seasons catch us off guard and make us feel like life won’t ever make sense again. 
  On our worst days, it’s hard to believe that God will guide us through the mess. Even on our good days, when we feel we have done all the right things, we may wonder: 
  Why am I working this job? 
  Am I making a difference? 
  How do I know the way to go? 
  Why can’t I seem to be content? 
  In Nothing Wasted, we see how we mature in time. Like fog dissipating, we recognize how God is gently leading us through each season of our lives. We may be struggling, but we are moving forward. 
  Our faith is not unseen. 
  Our moments are not wasted. 
  All the pain that comes in these seasons does lead to a full, rich life, growing in relationship with God and with others.
