\ Tending the Temple Product Description Best-selling Catholic author and speaker Kevin Vost ("Fit for Eternal Life and Memorize the Faith") takes the daily devotional to the next level: the fitness level! Together with popular author and fitness devotee Shane Kapler ("The God Who Is Love") and fitness expert and best-selling author Peggy Bowes ("The Rosary Workout"), Vost explores the ways in which a daily devotional can feed both the soul and the body. "Tending the Temple" is written with a daily spiritual meditation upon the life of a saint whose influence then becomes the foundation for a unique exercise for that day. The winning team of Vost, Kapler, and Bowes has created a truly distinctive way to begin each day in a faith-filled way and is sure to become a favorite for every person anxious to live out his or her faith both spiritually and physically. The glossary and health terms included as references are invaluable, and show the determination of Vost, Kapler, and Bowes to help the reader combine health of body with health of spirit. As they so passionately-and with wit and candor-remind the reader: It is never too late to care for your body the way God intended! "Tending the Temple "is a great place to see how body and spirit can work together for the ultimate in fulfillment: living as God planned-whole and holy. Product Review "Since all human beings are a union of body and spirit, care of the physical and spiritual have tandem importance. "Tending the Temple "is a surprisingly practical and engaging resource for those who have as their goal the edification of the entire person. It presents an excellent opportunity to use any day of the calendar year as an opportunity to start fresh on a plan for truth-centered self improvement. Readers will be pleasantly surprised at how sensible a healthful spiritual and physical routine can fit into the context of the Church's liturgical cycle."

"God is mystery," writes Norvene Vest in the Introduction to Tending the Holy, "and every form of religion is an effort to respond faithfully to the mystery of God by whatever name. The Divine breaks through into human experience in many ways, and humans respond variously to the awesome experience of God." And those various responses are what the contributors to Tending the Holy document. In this provocative and cutting-edge collection readers are given the opportunity to see what spiritual direction looks like--and what questions are asked--through a variety of lenses. From an examination of the spiritual direction relationship in the Evangelical Christian tradition, to Buddhism and Hindu ones, to the better-known ones of the Benedictines, Carmelites, and Ignatians, and finally, to the contemporary lenses of feminism, Generation X, the institutional perspective, and even one based on the natural world and the spirituality of St. Francis, this collection explores unexplored territory. Tending the Holy is an important resource for spiritual directors and pastoral counselors. Contributors include: Shaykha Fariha al-Jerrahi (New York); Ven. Tejadhammo Bhikku (Sangha Lodge Buddhist Monastery, Australia); Chrisopher Key Chapple (Loyola Marymount University); Rabbi Zari Weiss (Seattle, Washington); Sr. Marian Cowan, CSJ (Sisters of St Joseph of Carondelet, St. Louis, Missouri); Lisa Myers (La Canada, California); Dr. Michael Plattig (University of the Capuchins, Germany); Sister Katherine Howard, OSB (St. Benedict's Convent, St. Joseph, Minnesota); John H. Mostyn, CBC (Rome); The Rev. Dr. John Mabry ( San Francisco); Norvene Vest (Altadena, California), and The Rev. Dr. H. Paul Santmire (Watertown, Massachusetts). The Spiritual Directors International Series – This book is part of a special series produced by Morehouse Publishing in cooperation with Spiritual Directors International (SDI), a global network of some 6,000 spiritual directors and members.
