  The Magical Christmas Tree

  Everett Scott had always dreamed of having a Christmas tree farm. This didn't happen for a good while and Everett worked around town as a handyman. As soon as he could buy land for the tree farm, Everett started planting very small trees that would one day be in homes everywhere for their Christmas. But it takes a long while for the trees to grow, and a lot of hard work pruning and taking care of each tree every year in order for them to have the perfect shape for a Christmas tree. The Magical Christmas Tree is also about Ellie, a sick little girl that can't wait until Christmas to be well and get her Christmas wish. You will learn all about this when you read the story. 
  The Magical Christmas Tree by Laurence M. Haynes is a sweet and interesting story of Christmas trees. The characters warm our hearts the more we get to know them. Many of us have trees year after year and never think about where they come from and the hard work in growing the trees to perfection. I thoroughly enjoyed the details involved from buying the land for the tree farm, to the trees being ready to go into homes for Christmas, to all of the hard work Everett and his two sons put into the tree farm. Laurence M. Haynes is also his own illustrator with beautiful pictures throughout this book.

  Why Buddhist Practice? Why...

  Ph.D. Pilar Jennings

  Jennings is both a Buddhist practitioner and a psychologist. Here she talks about when it’s appropriate to bring our psychological struggles to our Buddhist teacher and when it is appropriate to bring them to a therapist. 
  In general, Jennings says the differences between them are: “When you are working with a therapist or an analyst, there is a sense of very personal explorations. The lens is to go in close and look at the particularities of the way a patient has gone through their life with very particular parents, family system, and culture, etc. Buddhist teachers tend to zoom out, and explore suffering from a more universal lens. So, when their Western students come to them with particular personal problems, they’ll tend to respond from this universal perspective that these are all manifestations of the same tendencies we all have.” 
  She discusses how each has much to give and addresses the value of having a spiritual community where you can look for support and have conversations, as contrasted to the psycho-analytic process where it is a one-on-one and the support comes from a single individual in the form of the therapist.

  Commentary from Christopher Ash Sets Out a Deeply Christian Study of Psalms 101–150
  While reading Psalms, it is common for commentaries to focus on Old Testament meaning, without connecting it deeply to Christ's fulfillment in the New Testament. By studying Scripture this way, believers miss out on the fullness of God's word. The key to experiencing authentically Christian worship is learning a Christ-focused approach to praying and singing the Psalms.
  In this thorough commentary, Christopher Ash provides a careful treatment of Psalms 101–150, examining each psalm's significance to David and the other psalmists, to Jesus during his earthly ministry, and to the church of Christ in every age. Ash includes introductory quotations, a deep analysis of the text's structure and vocabulary, and a closing reflection and response, along with selected quotations from older readings of the Psalms. Perfect for pastors, Bible teachers, and students, this commentary helps readers sing and pray the Psalms with Christ in view.
  
  - Exhaustive: Christopher Ash's exegesis explores how the Psalms are quoted and echoed throughout the New Testament
  - Applicable and Heartfelt: Explains how a Christ-centered approach to reading the Psalms influences doctrines of prayer, prophecy, the Trinity, ecclesiology, and more
  - Ideal for Pastors and Serious Students of Scripture: Written for Bible teachers, Sunday school and youth leaders, and small-group leaders

  The Dude's Guide to Manhood -...

  Discover the path to true masculinity—to an adventurous life of strength, purpose, and clarity. 
  Didn’t we used to understand manhood? Wasn’t there a time once when it was clear and straightforward? Are we lost? 
  Dudes, look around you: The trail we once traveled from boyhood to maturity is now so overgrown, it’s almost impossible to trace. Our vision is blurred, rendering the map that previous generations followed unreadable. Our compass needles are spinning in circles, making navigation impossible. We are stuck in dense, dangerous woods, and our communities—the wives, children, friends, and colleagues we could be influencing—are suffering as a result. 
  It can be tempting to give up and, like so many men today, simply exist, but take heart: Now is not the time for men to abandon our quest. We can discover the path to true masculinity—to an adventurous life of strength, purpose, and clarity. 
  In The Dude’s Guide to Manhood, pastor, author and dude Darrin Patrick charts a course back toward real manliness, mapping out a vision to help men find significance and influence in today’s broken, mixed-message culture. Revealing his own frailties and missteps, Patrick doesn’t preach at you but walks with you on a journey toward healing and wholeness. 
  Filled with timeless wisdom, accessible insights and practical guidance, The Dude’s Guide to Manhood issues an encouraging and doable call to all men, whatever your age or stage. We need not settle for wandering aimlessly through our days, wounded, weak, and passive. Instead, we can get back on the trail, embrace our gifts while facing our imperfections, and trust the God of new beginnings to lead us into all that we are destined to become: forgiven, connected, determined, teachable, content, heroic, and so much more.
