Synopsis

Tree Myths explores the profound role of trees in global folklore, spirituality, and religion, revealing their deep-rooted connections to humanity. Trees, often seen as sacred entities or ancestral figures, are examined as potent symbols across diverse cultures and eras. The book uncovers the symbolic importance of specific trees, such as the World Tree (Axis Mundi), a recurring motif linking earthly and spiritual realms, and investigates localized tree spirits and deities in regional belief systems.

 
The book provides historical context for understanding the evolution of tree-related myths, focusing on animistic traditions and early agricultural practices. It argues that these myths are vital expressions of humanity's relationship with nature, reflecting beliefs about life, death, and the cosmos.

 
Organized into three sections, the book first introduces key concepts, then delves into specific tree myths worldwide, and finally analyzes underlying themes relevant to contemporary ecological and spiritual concerns. Supported by extensive research from anthropological studies and religious texts, Tree Myths offers a unique perspective by synthesizing diverse cultural narratives. This interdisciplinary approach reveals common threads connecting humanity's understanding of trees while celebrating unique cultural expressions. The book's exploration of cultural narratives and sacred trees informs contemporary conservation efforts and promotes appreciation for the natural world.

    Making something beautiful in a broken world can be harrowing work, and it can’t be done alone.    Over the last twenty years, Andrew Peterson has performed thousands of concerts, published four novels, released ten albums, taught college and seminary classes on writing, founded a nonprofit ministry for Christians in the arts, and executive-produced a film—all in a belief that God calls us to proclaim the gospel and the coming kingdom using whatever gifts are at our disposal. He’s stumbled along the way, made mistake after mistake, and yet has continually encountered the grace of God through an encouraging family, a Christ-centered community of artists in the church, and the power of truth, beauty, and goodness in Scripture and the arts.    While there are many books about writing, none deal first-hand with the intersection of songwriting, storytelling, and vocation, along with nuts-and-bolts exploration of the great mystery of creativity. In Adorning the Dark, Andrew describes six principles for the writing life:      serving the work  serving the audience  selectivity  discernment  discipline  community   Through stories from his own journey, Andrew shows how these principles are not merely helpful for writers and artists, but for anyone interested in imitating the way the Creator interacts with his creation.  This book is both a memoir of Andrew’s journey and a handbook for artists, written in the hope that his story will provide encouragement to others stumbling along in pursuit of a calling to adorn the dark with the light of Christ.

    The Vagus Nerve and Autism -...

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. The human nervous system operates like an intricate symphony, with countless neural pathways conducting the complex dance of our daily existence. At the heart of this orchestration lies the vagus nerve, a remarkable cranial nerve that serves as the primary highway of communication between our brain and body. For individuals on the autism spectrum, understanding this critical neural pathway offers profound insights into the unique ways their nervous systems process the world around them. 
     
    The vagus nerve, scientifically known as the tenth cranial nerve, extends from the brainstem down through the neck and into the chest and abdomen. This wandering nerve, whose name derives from the Latin word "vagus" meaning wanderer, touches nearly every major organ system in our body. It regulates heart rate, breathing patterns, digestion, and most importantly for our discussion, our ability to feel safe and socially connected in the world. 
     
    In the context of autism, the vagus nerve takes on particular significance because it directly influences what researchers call our "neuroception" - our unconscious ability to detect safety or danger in our environment. This process happens beneath the threshold of conscious awareness, yet it profoundly shapes every interaction, every sensory experience, and every emotional response an autistic individual encounters throughout their day.

    In Praise of Listening - A...

    In her latest book, In Praise of Listening, Christian McEwen reflects on listening (silence, music, nature, prayer) in a series of thoughtful chapters, each one focused on a different theme. When an athlete speaks of "listening to his body," or a gardener describes herself as "listening to the land," when writers and artists explain that they are "listening" to their work-in-progress, they are using the word as she chooses to use it here—as an extended metaphor for openness and receptivity, rippling out from the self-centered human to the farthest reaches of the non-human world. 
     
     
     
    In Praise of Listening is a kind of sister or first cousin to McEwen's earlier, timely, and very popular, World Enough & Time, with the same emphasis on creativity and slowing down. As McEwen says: Most of us think of listening in fairly literal fashion: human beings listening (or not listening) to one another; the pleasure of attending to a familiar piece of music. But listening can have a far broader and more capacious meaning, moving out beyond the small apparatus of the ears to the hands or belly or enveloping spirit/mind.
