  The Downward Ascent of Servant...

  Servant leadership is a downward ascent to greatness.  It’s a journey of servanthood where we become lesser and God becomes greater.   It’s a road of humility where instead of rising to power we descend into greatness. True leadership in the kingdom of God is upside-down and inside-out from how the world views it.  Where the world values the microphone, God values the mop.  Where the world values the podium, God values the plunger.  And those of us who truly want to be great in God’s eyes are quick to remember the words of our Savior: The greatest among you shall be your servant (Matthew 23:11).In the book The Downward Ascent of Servant Leadership, Craig Trierweiler combines biblical truth with personal reflections to give practical insight on servanthood.  Craig’s journey through life, personally and professionally, has been a long road ascending downward from plunger to pulpit.  His story shows that true greatness, in God’s eyes, is not about upward mobility but about downward ascent.

  The Mystery of Death - The...

  Speaking during the early stages of the First World War – with the Western Front just miles away and thousands of young men dying – Rudolf Steiner focuses on the subject of death. In particular, he addresses the difficult question of why some people die prematurely, particularly in youth. Steiner also speaks of the deaths of three of his acquaintances, having made contact with their living souls in the afterlife. He voices their own words and describes the first stages of their journeys after death.
  Rudolf Steiner strikes a second chord with the description of the task of Central Europe in the context of the various 'Folk-souls'. The influences of these spiritual entities are reflected in the culture and life of various peoples, but do not promote nationalism. In fact, nationalism can only be transcended when we understand and recognize our differences. This approach is based on phenomenology rather than value-judgements. The third main theme running through these lectures relates to understanding the impulses and connections active in history. Reaching beyond simple notions of 'fate', are we able to allow for the workings of the impulse of Christ?These extraordinary lectures, previously unpublished in English, are presented here with an introduction, notes and an index.

  Dr. Gerry Crete takes you on a journey to encounter all the parts of your inner world and allow them to be seen, heard, known, and loved. As you get to know these parts, you'll discover your innermost self, your spiritual center, and learn how to love yourself in a healthy and enriching way. You'll learn that with God's grace, the inmost self can help relieve us of our burdens of shame, fear, and self-hatred. You will join with St. Paul as he says, "I delight in the law of God, in my inmost self." When your innermost self and your parts work together in freedom and love, you experience inner harmony. 
  The first step is to hear the cries of our parts, understand their pain, and hear their stories. The litanies and meditations in this book are designed to help you connect with your parts and experience connection with God in a way that is both safe and intimate. 
  This book is filled with litanies, the voices of our inner parts - sometimes protective, and closed off, and at other times wounded, and fearful -- as they cry out to God for help. Dr. Crete's life's work has been to help people recover from the difficult and painful experiences of the past. He has focused on how we relieve anxiety and live more fulfilling lives and enjoy more meaningful relationships. In this book Dr. Crete offers you his knowledge, insights, and experience in the hopes that you will experience not only relief from anxiety but inner harmony, greater life fulfillment, and a deeper more intimate relationship with God. 
  If you have experienced severe trauma: sexual abuse, military trauma, torture, the loss of a loved one, spiritual abuse, verbal humiliation, neglect, or emotional abandonment, then this book may provide a way to begin the healing process and grow in resilience.

  Ask of Old Paths - Medieval...

  Read by the author. 
  Traditional Christian virtue and vices like abstinence, gluttony, and sloth make many of us bored or uncomfortable. At their best, these words sound dead or confusing, like incomplete fossils that belong to a distant past awkwardly enshrined in a museum. At worst, they signify a prejudiced past, when these words were wielded like weapons. 
  Yet in medieval writing, the language of the virtues and vices was powerful, lively, and delightfully weird. Patience is described as a peppercorn. Unicorns preach chastity. Knightly virtues fend off devious vices by throwing roses at them. In medieval books, words like avarice and meekness meant different things and carried different weight than they do today. And great medieval preachers and poets taught the virtues as crucial to what it meant to live a life of holiness, right alongside the Lord’s Prayer and the Creed. 
  Ask of Old Paths, by Grace Hamman meditates upon those strange and wonderful word-pictures and explanations of virtues and vices found in medieval traditions of poetry, sermons, and treatises long confined to dusty corners of the library. It focuses on the ancient tradition of virtue language called the Seven Capital Vices and their Virtue Remedies: pride and humility, envy and love, wrath and meekness, avarice and mercy, sloth and fortitude, gluttony and abstinence, lust and chastity. 
  In accessible and thoughtful chapters, scholar and writer Grace Hamman shows how learning about these pairs of medieval virtues and vices can help us reevaluate our own washed out and insipid moral vocabulary in modernity. Our imaginations for the good life are expanded; our longing for sanctification sharpens. Old ideas can give us new fire in our practice of the virtues--and in that practice, we imitate Jesus and become more human.
