Does your pace of life become so fast that you feel you are spinning out of control? Would you like to find a more peace-filled path on which you can journey this year? Then this is the book for you. We will begin our journey on November 11th and walk the ancient path of the early Celtic Christians. Traveling in the company of Saints, sinners and storytellers, you will be invited to embrace a new, yet old, approach to Advent. Together we will recover the map they followed and find the treasure they found: the treasure of Emmanuel – God with us.From Gordon MacDonald's Foreword:"Should you choose to follow Jean through the Advent weeks, lighting candles as you go along, you'll find a set of uplifting and deepening reflections for every day. They are not burdensome or time-consuming.Each reading is designed to help us center our thoughts upon the true thrust of Advent. In this book there are rousing Celtic prayers:I bind unto myself the name,The strong name of the Trinity,By invocation of the same,The Three in One and One in Three . . . .There are wonderful stories: “I was five years old,” Jean writes, “and Christmas was coming.” You can't imagine what comes next as Jean reminisces on the generosity of God as understood through the eyes of a child.There are old hymns: “Will your anchor hold in the storms of life, when the clouds unfold their wings of strife. . ..”Great Psalms . . . encouraging promises . . . poems from the heart of the great mothers and fathers of the Christian movement.In giving us this spiritual guide for Advent, Jean Hess has provided us a wonderful gift. I am among those who are truly grateful."

This volume provides a fulsome treatment for students preparing for ministry and assumes no prior knowledge of the Old Testament.

From early childhood, he lived with his parents and two brothers in the woods of East Texas on a family farm surrounded by a national forest with a wildlife management area across the road. These stories reveal how he met the love of his life, Betty; what he learned by delivering the Dallas Morning News; how he fared at his first job in the Mississippi Delta in the middle of KKK country; how he perceived his work at a Texas prison; and how he came to work in Siberia for a pipeline company. As Al reflects on the cycles his longand varied life, he shares the stories that shape a person and make a man a man.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even after achieving our most lofty goals, we are sometimes left confused by the emptiness we feel. We check the boxes. We fill our calendars. We get the promotion. We buy the bigger house. Yet there is still an unquenchable longing deep within us. Simple Mercies: How the Works of Mercy Bring Peace and Fulfillment offers an alternative. You can be the person God created you to be by loving and serving others through the works of mercy. By doing so, we are assured the peace and fulfillment that doesn’t come from the world, but from love of God and neighbor. With her accessible, everyday approach to life, writer, mom, and volunteer, Lara C. Patangan helps us realize that our everyday compassion makes a difference in exponential ways and that mercy always matters. Practicing mercy isn’t a passive way of renewal; rather, engaging in transformative acts of service empowers us to fulfill our purpose to love and serve God, and to love our neighbor as ourselves.
