Patience Worth, a disembodied spirit, communicated through the mediumship of Pearl Curran from June 1913 to December 1937. At first, Patience communicated through Pearl by actuating Pearl's movements (i.e. having Pearl spell out words) while she was using an Ouija board. Later, Patience was able to communicate through Pearl more directly by activating Pearl's repertoir of mental images and thoughts. Over the course of this extraordinary relationship, Patience, through Pearl, dictated six books and engaged in lively conversations with hundreds of individuals from all walks of life. Scattered throughout Patience's conversations were numerous poems, essays, short stories, witticisms, and parables - all of a high literary and spiritual quality. These conversations, which consist of some four million words, were carefully recorded. They fill eleven bound volumes, which are kept at the Missouri Historical Society. This book contains the text of Patience's conversations found in volume one.

In this book, David Baily Harned makes a persuasive case for the significance of patience as an essential ingredient of the moral life. In a bold and invigorating manner, the author addresses contemporary existence--the lives of individuals, families, communities, and nations--and demonstrates how the Christian vision informs our efforts to live in a chaotic and violent world as faithful, hopeful, loving children of God. This essay in theological ethics is rooted in classic texts: the Old and New Testaments, as well as the writings of Augustine, Gregory I, Thomas Aquinas, Thomas a Kempis, John Calvin, Soren Kierkegaard, and W. H. Vanstone. In graceful prose and through careful analysis, David Harned both inspires and instructs. This new edition also includes an afterword by one of his former students who explores the value of this study by applying its insights to the life and leadership of George Washington.

From the olive trees of southern France to Gnostic cults in Egypt, a man and his lovers are invented and reinvented in this first volume of a great literary adventure. For British doctor Bruce Drexel, a return to Provence is bittersweet. Here, at a rustic chateau, he once fell in love with Sylvie, the Frenchwoman who would become his wife, and befriended her brother, Piers. The three made up a peculiar, potent ménage for years until Sylvie’s descent into madness and Piers’s suicide. As Drexel attends to Piers’s affairs, he becomes steeped in the memories of a spiritually transformational trip to Egypt; the band of intellectual confederates who used to be his intimate friends; and a three-sided love that became his reason for being. So begins Monsieur, the masterful first entry of Durrell’s Avignon Quintet, an infinite regress of memory and imagination that challenges the formal conventions of fiction.
