Synopsis

Have you ever tasted true freedom?
Russell Joyce was born with a rare craniofacial disorder called Goldenhar syndrome, where the left side of his face was not formed. Years of patchwork surgeries made him more outwardly presentable, but not without deep pain and physical and emotional scars. But a life-changing encounter broke through to him with a power he never thought possible, in the very place he never thought to look—his broken face.
This set Russell on a journey to understand what was hindering him and others from experiencing the power of God's grace and being truly set free. During a season of starting a new church in Brooklyn, New York, he learned how the broken places of our lives can be transformed when Jesus meets us in the realities of our woundedness. God doesn't love us despite our wounds but through those very wounds. By his scars we are healed, and we can find new depths of freedom in Christ, scars and all.
A warning: this journey will not be easy. A promise: it will be well worth the risk.

    With these fundamental lectures on speech eurythmy – given just months after his course entitled 'Eurythmy as Visible Singing' – Rudolf Steiner completed the foundations of the new art of movement. In connecting to the centuries-old esoteric and exoteric Western traditions of 'the Word' – the creative power in the sounds of the divine-human alphabet – he gave it concrete form and expression in the performing arts, education and therapy. Although aimed primarily at the professional concerns of eurythmists who perform, teach or work as therapists, the lectures offer a wealth of suggestions and insights to anyone interested in the arts.For this new edition – freshly translated by Matthew Barton and introduced by Coralee Frederickson – the original shorthand transcripts have been compared exhaustively with typed records and the notes of course participants. These notes included numerous sketches of movements, gestures and choreographies, many of which have been reproduced here to complement the text. Also featured is an appendix comprising facsimiles and transcripts of Rudolf Steiner's preparatory notes, programmes of the eurythmy performances given during the course, and accounts by Steiner published in the Society Newsletter. Finally, there are recollections by course participants, additional sketches of forms and movements, Marie Steiner's original foreword, and 30 pages of colour plates featuring blackboard drawings and eurythmy forms. Fifteen lectures, Dornach, Jun.-July 1924, GA 279. 32pp colour plates

    What the Rabbis Know That I Never Learned in Church is an eye-opening examination of what Christians can learn about God from the ones who call Him Adonai. Author Chaim Bentorah has spent forty years talking with, learning from, and studying with rabbis to help Christians experience the gospel through a new lens. 
     
     
     
    Bentorah wades through the complexities of how Jews and Christians live, breathe, and digest Scripture. Rabbis taught Bentorah that there were always new insights that could be learned from Scripture and he presents these not only through Jewish tradition and customs, but also through the importance of the Hebrew and Greek languages. 
     
     
     
    This book will constructively challenge believers to discover the roots of Christianity from a Jewish perspective providing cultural context and insights. Come with a heart and mind prepared by the Holy Spirit to learn and live anew in God.

    This book is the core textbook of a quantum science of acting on stage and in life. At a time when the arts and sciences converge more than ever, Perceptual Acting and Directing theory and method (PAD) speaks about a contemporary, tangible metaphysics, fusing theories of quantum physics with mindfulness and the famous Method of the Actors' Studio, in a new harmony. Konstantin Stanislavski had said that the actor of the future, a new actor in the new life, is the one for whom art springs from spiritual intuition. He used the word Supraconscious, indicating to the actor the levels of consciousness he needed to attain. He considered the art of theater as the spiritual path to wholeness. PAD is the new system of translating and decoding, frame by frame, the experience, bringing us in touch with the higher self, by reference to Nietzsche's superhuman and the transcendental Kazantzakis, creating a new transitional space where everything is in motion and evolves in the face of inertia, continuously actualizing that Alma-Quantum Leap of being.

    Scotland is an old country with an ancient history. There is no doubt about that. Many traditions, words, symbols, and other cultural aspects we see as normal today, originate from Scotland. 
    Scotland's documented history started with the Roman Empire's entryway in the first century, when the province of Britannia broadened as far north as the Antonine Wall. Caledonia, to the north, was home to the Picti, whose uprisings drove Rome's armies back to Hadrian's Wall. As Rome withdrew from Britain, the Scoti, a group of Gaelic pirates, started colonizing Western Scotland and Wales. Ancient Scotland saw the Neolithic Age around 4000 BC, the Bronze Age around 2000 BC, and the Iron Age around 700 BC before the arrival of the Romans. 
    With all of this history and more in the past few centuries, when things got really interesting, let’s take a look at some of the best-known, most important factors of Scotland’s history, and what we can learn from them.

    "Fierce warres and faithful loves shall moralize my song."
    
    Step into the enchanted realm of Faerie Land, a world where every forest path leads to a moral trial and every monster represents a vice of the human soul. Commissioned to celebrate the glory of the Tudor dynasty, Edmund Spenser's masterpiece is one of the longest and most intricate poems in the English language. It follows a series of knights—each representing a particular virtue—as they battle wizards, giants, and their own internal failings.
    
    The Birth of the Spenserian Stanza: Experience the lush, musical beauty of a poetic form invented specifically for this work. Spenser's unique nine-line stanza, with its interlocking rhyme scheme and final "Alexandrine" line, creates a dreamlike pace that mirrors the wandering "errant" journeys of his heroes. This style would go on to influence giants of literature from Byron to Keats.
    
    A Mirror for a Queen: At the heart of the poem is Gloriana, the Faerie Queene, a multifaceted allegory for Elizabeth I. Through characters like the warrior-maid Britomart (representing Chastity) and the Redcrosse Knight (representing Holiness), Spenser provides a manual for "fashioning a gentleman or noble person in virtuous and gentle discipline." It is a work of Arthurian legend, Protestant theology, and political intrigue woven into a breathtaking tapestry.
    
    The ultimate fusion of fantasy and philosophy. Purchase "The Faerie Queene" today and lose yourself in the foundational epic of the English Renaissance.

    Watch God Turn Adversity to Mission! 
    	In this uplifting true story, follow Joeth Strickland as she overcomes childhood disabilities, endures 19 surgeries after a catastrophic collision with an 18-wheeler … and founds a ministry that today engages hundreds of Christians each year to support missions in 104 countries. 
    	“Satan keeps trying to take me out,” Joeth says, and she keeps persevering. As God grew her resources from a few boxes in the breezeway of her home to a 17,000 square foot warehouse, she learned over and over that “If it’s God’s will, it’s God’s bill.”  She also came to trust that what’s given for God will be needed by God, however odd the gift seems. So a barrel full of deep sea fishing line eventually helped people in Suriname to fish for food and 13 full pallets of neckties yielded tourniquets for the Ukraine war.  
    	Joeth’s life and ministry have been fueled by miracles: the miracle of overcoming infertility, her miraculous survival of a crash that should have killed her on the spot, the miraculous opportunities she has found to meet needs in hundreds of countries worldwide. She has seen God answer prayers for everything from a needed forklift to the salvation of volunteers. Her resilient response to setbacks keeps her driving toward the prize she sees in Jesus, and she’s ready to jump into any opportunity God places before her. She is firmly committed to global missions as a result of her own history as a child whose parents were led to Christ by missionaries while living overseas.  
    	You’ll be inspired as you see God work through injury, financial hardship, and the oddest of obstructions as Joeth keeps Crossing All Borders to serve God.
