"Love, Pray, Listen offers empathy and grounded biblical wisdom to help parents thrive, no matter what path their adult kids take."--Pastor Steve Stroope 
 
Wisdom and Hope for Parents of Grown-Ups 	 
 
As a parent, your role changes drastically after your kids grow up. You fear heartache and strained relationships when your children choose difficult--even seemingly wrong--paths.  
 
Love, Pray, Listen is the gracious, practical resource you need for navigating the rocky terrain of parenting grown-ups. In this book, mom and author Mary DeMuth answers questions like: 
 
● What do I do when my kids make choices that don't align with my values? 
● How do I keep communication lines open with my grown children? 
● When do I speak, and when do I listen? 
● Is it possible to hold on to my joy when parenting is so hard? 
● How do I avoid the temptation of meddling in my kids' lives? 
 
Love, Pray, Listen offers a robust theology for long-term parenting gleaned from the discipleship model Jesus exemplified, one that carefully and thoughtfully applies his way of expressing love.  
 
This is your invitation for spiritual growth and a path toward fulfilling relationships with your adult children.

Christmas Stories From...

Charles Dickens

Twenty stories were originally published in the Christmas editions of the magazines “Household Words” and “All The Year Round”. Some of the stories have little holiday sentiment and exhibit much of the indignation Dickens felt at the social and economic injustices of his day. Some of the stories were written in collaboration with other authors. The editor of this volume chose to omit those other chapters and include only Dickens' work. The result is that some of the stories are a bit choppy, not to say confusing.

Kaspar Hauser - And the Destiny...

Heyer Karl

Who was Kaspar Hauser and where did he come from? Why did he spend his childhood in a prison cell? Was he related to nobility, royalty or even Napoleon, as some have concluded?
From his appearance on the streets of Nuremberg in 1828 to his disturbing murder only five years later, the enigmatic story of Kaspar Hauser has stirred feelings of love and admiration in countless people. He has been celebrated as the subject of films and plays, popular books and academic studies, yet even today – almost two hundred years after his death – he continues to arouse opposition and hatred from his detractors, who dismiss him as an opportunist and a fraud.
In the first English-language edition of this classic text – the original, comprehensive attempt to illumine the mysterious life of Kaspar Hauser from a spiritual-scientific, anthroposophical perspective – historian Karl Heyer gathers the basic facts of the life and death of the 'Child of Europe', exploring his remarkable abilities and character. With impressive clarity, he goes on to study Hauser's fate in relation to the mission and destiny of Middle Europe, focusing on the roles of the House of Baden and key political actors such as Napoleon and Otto von Bismarck. His original research leads to some shattering conclusions with significant consequences for Europe's future.
Heyer was initially drawn to the subject through a private conversation with Rudolf Steiner. That seed matured forty years later into intensive research and the first publication of this book in German in 1958. 'For me', said Heyer, 'it represented the high point of my writing and a kind of crowning of my life's work.'
