Members of The College of St. Scholastica's Dignitas Program produce this work in recognition of the intricacies of the guest/host relationship. Using popular and celebrated film, literature and other mass media, we develop a deeper understanding of interaction. We explore hospitality from human and non-human perspectives, through fiction and non-fiction, philosophy, theology, and psychology. What are the pleasures and dangers in the role of the stranger? What are the assumptions and liberties of the host? How do the guest and host roles relate to the designations of 'the self' and 'the other'? How do we know when we are the host or the guest? Is it possible to mistake or underestimate one's role? How might diversity, privilege, conflict, and assumption affect the guest/host relationship? Our work seeks a clearer picture of stewardship, intentional being, and the potential for conscious ambassadorship in a complex, multi-dimensional world.

Your identity can be summed up in the management of three critical relationships: your relationship with God, your relationship with you, and your relationship with others. Through these relationships we learn, develop, and cement our habits and personalities. Between You, God, and Me explores each of these relationships from a spiritual perspective, using practical knowledge to expose the traps often used to destroy unity of mind, body, and spirit. Each lesson will take you on a journey in discovering the depth and beauty of Gods love, the necessity of self-love, and your role in expressing Gods love toward your family, friends, and colleagues. This is not your typical devotional! Each lesson will arouse your emotions, challenge your beliefs, and force you to acknowledge thought patterns and behaviors that prevent you from living a life of purpose. Using biblical and scientific evidence, you will discover Gods plan and purpose for your life; recognize attitudes that prevent you from succeeding in your goals, and identify tools to help you create a joyful, stress-free, existence. For a few minutes each day, Eve will accompany you as you uncover Gods love while preparing you to live a life of liberty, harmony, and peace. Between You, God, and Me is a powerful devotional tool intended to help you celebrate your intimate relationships and foster positive change within your life.

"The 2001 edition (1st) was a comprehensive review of history, research, and discussions on religion and health through the year 2000. The Appendix listed 1,200 separate quantitative studies on religion and health each rated in quality on 0-10 scale, followed by about 2,000 references and an extensive index for rapid topic identification. The 2012 edition (2nd) of the Handbook systematically updated the research from 2000 to 2010, with the number of quantitative studies then reaching the thousands. This 2022 edition (3rd) is the most scientifically rigorous addition to date, covering the best research published through 2021 with an emphasis on prospective studies and randomized controlled trials. Beginning with a Foreword by Dr. Howard K. Koh, former US Assistant Secretary for Health for the Department of Health and Human Services, this nearly 600,000-word volume examines almost every aspect of health, reviewing past and more recent research on the relationship between religion and health outcomes. Furthermore, nearly all of its 34 chapters conclude with clinical and community applications making this text relevant to both health care professionals (physicians, nurses, social workers, rehabilitation therapists, counsellors, psychologists, sociologists, etc.) and clergy (community clergy, chaplains, pastoral counsellors, etc.). The book's extensive Appendix focuses on the best studies, describing each study in a single line, allowing researchers to quickly locate the existing research. It should not be surprising that for Handbook for the past two decades has been the most cited of all references on religion and health"--
