For some decades, the work of Carmelite theologian Constance FitzGerald, OCD, has been a well-known secret, not only among students and practitioners of Carmelite spirituality, but also among spiritual directors, spiritual writers, retreatants, vowed religious women and men, and Christian theologians. This collection sets out to introduce the work of Sister Constance to a wider and more diverse audience––women and men who seek to strengthen themselves on the spiritual journey, who yearn to deepen personal or scholarly theological and religious reflection, and who want to make sense of the times in which we live. To this end, this volume curates seven of Sister Constance’s articles with probing and responsive essays written by ten theologians. Contributors include: Susie Paulik Babka Colette Ackerman, OCD Roberto S. Goizueta Margaret R. Pfeil Alex Milkulich Andrew Prevot Laurie Cassidy Maria Teresa Morgan Bryan N. Massingale M.

Come feel the cool and shadowed breeze, come smell your way among the trees, come touch rough bark and leathered leaves: Welcome to the night. Welcome to the night, where mice stir and furry moths flutter. Where snails spiral into shells as orb spiders circle in silk. Where the roots of oak trees recover and repair from their time in the light. Where the porcupette eats delicacies—raspberry leaves!—and coos and sings. Come out to the cool, night wood, and buzz and hoot and howl—but do beware of the great horned owl—for it’s wild and it’s windy way out in the woods!

In book one of the series, Left for Dead, an unknown enemy attacked the world—leaving society without modern technology. Without the internet, air travel, and few running vehicles of any kind, regional conflicts redefine modern warfare. Forces of darkness moved into the vacuum of power left in the wake of the global disaster, reeking havoc on an unsuspecting civilian populous. Facing Darkness picks up where book 2, Steps Back left off as survivors, Asher Latham, aka Polar Bear and his small group of former prison inmates, struggle to deal with the after-effects of the disaster. Latham and his former prisoners swore an oath to keep a new moral code he hoped would keep them unified and safe as they tried to reunite with their loved ones. They would help one another—or anyone else they came in contact with who was in need. They would only take from what was obviously abandoned, and they would not rob, rape, or murder. A group of church members hide out inside Budcamp’s RV dealership, but they are on the verge of starving to death. They pray to God for help, not knowing what that help might look like. Other survivors, Vanderbilt University students, Bethany Johnson and Cooper Allen work together to identify and battle the unknown forces who attacked the world. Can they build a computer capable of their lofty goal? Will the groups of survivors overcome the odds against them? Read along and follow the drama and action.
