Life doesn't have to be lived on grand mountaintops for it to be meaningful. We can see God at work right where we are: in our ordinary and mundane routines, in the faces of our family and friends, and--especially--in nature. Kara Lawler speaks to the hearts of those who find themselves lost in the midst of their chaotic schedules and weary attempts to be all that is expected of them. Everywhere Holy addresses our deepest struggles, including: How to feel joy, despite depression and anxiety Dealing with hardships and understanding unconditional love How to view life as an adventure, even when that feels too hard How to feel more connected, more grateful, and more at peace In beautiful prose, Lawler describes the unique sacredness found in God's creation and offers fifteen inspiring insights for cultivating it day-to-day. She encourages you to make this lifestyle change through the observance of small acts. In so doing, you will discover a holy space that honors God and the life you’ve been given--and will discover yourself and your unique place in the holy that is everywhere, whether it’s in the woods behind your house or in the face of a stranger on a bus in a busy city. No matter where you are, there is holy free for the taking.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIf you have ever needed a little nudge to jump-start your prayer life or some thoughtful reflection to enhance your spiritual awareness, Seeing God Everywhere: Living Your Life as a Prayer may just be the gentle push for which you have been waiting. Seeing God Everywhere: Living Your Life as a Prayer invites the person of faith to explore the dimensions of the spiritual universe that live right inside one's own heart and home, and expand infinitely right outside one's door. Through 366 daily reflections, the reader is encouraged to listen and to see the Spirit already living within as well as its manifestations throughout the activities of one's daily life and in the unfolding grand universe.

A simple human being just trying to live life to the best of his understanding and ability, Kevin offers the insight that he has gained through his years of study within the literal and figurative classrooms of life.

Included here are numerous insights from and "teachings" about Buddhism, Islam, Hinduism and Judaism, along with smaller portions concerning Taoism, Jainism and Sikhism, and an ample supply of references to Kevin's own spiritual practices within the Native American tradition. Each daily entry closes with a simple prayer addressing the Creator/God/the Great Mystery in a variety of visages, with the image and the prayer connected to the content and the "lesson" of the day's reflection.Seeing God Everywhere: Living Your Life as a Prayer seeks to be a companion to the faithful's prayer life, an enhancement and an encouragement. Many want to nurture and increase their prayer life, but don't know how or where to begin. This book just may be the desired stepping-stone.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWhy is God's beauty often absent from our theology? Rarely do theologians take up the theme of God's beauty—even more rarely do they consider how God's beauty should shape the task of theology itself. But the psalmist says that the heart of the believer's desire is to behold the beauty of the Lord. In The Beauty of the Lord, Jonathan King restores aesthetics as not merely a valid lens for theological reflection, but an essential one. Jesus, our incarnate Redeemer, displays the Triune God's beauty in his actions and person, from creation to final consummation. How can and should theology better reflect this unveiled beauty? The Beauty of the Lord is a renewal of a truly aesthetic theology and a properly theological aesthetics.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKRenunciation Through Wisdom is a collection of essays originally written in Bengali and published by Srila Prabhupada in India during the 1940s. They were later translated into English by his disciples. In these essays Srila Prabhupada expands on themes found in the Bhagavad-gita, discussing such topics as why people are averse to God, the ultimate causes of suffering, and how the world’s troubles are extraordinarily fleeting when seen from the standpoint of eternity. Students of Srila Prabhupada will recognize the same common-sense writing style in Renunciation Through Wisdom as in his later, well-known works such as Srimad-Bhagavatam and Bhagavad-gita As It Is, as well as his expertise at distilling the essence of India's ancient Vedic wisdom into powerful, convincing, practical, and easily readable directives.
