Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New Voices Seminar is a lively, intergenerational, and diverse group of women scholars who take an interdisciplinary approach to the study of Christianity. Under the leadership of Kathleen Dolphin, the seminar gathers annually at Saint Mary's College, Notre Dame, for collegial and collaborative conversation about women in the church and in the world. With Women, Wisdom, and Witness, readers are invited to join their conversation. This collection of essays by seminar members addresses significant contexts of contemporary women's experience: suffering and resistance, education, and the crossroads of religion and public life. Theology is brought to bear on some pressing issues in our time: poverty, sexual norms, trauma and slavery, health care, immigration, and the roles of women in academia and in the church. Readers will discover the rich socio-political, interdisciplinary, and dialogical implications of Catholic women's intellectual and social praxis in contemporary theology and ethics.

Book excerpt: 2020 Banff Mountain Book Competition Finalist in Mountain Literature Richard K. Nelson was the host of the national public radio series, "Encounters" Nelson was an anthropologist who lived with Alaska Native tribes and spoke both Inupiag and Koyukon Based on Nelson’s journals and interviews with Gary Snyder, Barry Lopez, Rick Bass, and others "He listened to his [Native Alaskan] teachers, immersed himself in their landscapes as a naturalist, and became, without intending to, a great teacher himself." --Barry Lopez, from the foreword Before his death in 2019, cultural anthropologist, author, and radio producer Richard K. Nelson’s work focused primarily on the indigenous cultures of Alaska and, more generally, on the relationships between people and nature. Nelson lived for extended periods in Athabaskan and Alaskan Eskimo villages, experiences which inspired his earliest written works, including Hunters of the Northern Ice In Raven’s Witness, Lentfer tells Nelson’s story--from his midwestern childhood to his first experiences with Native culture in Alaska through his own lifelong passion for the land where he so belonged. Nelson was the author of the bestselling The Island Within and Heart and Blood. The recipient of multiple honorary degrees and numerous literary awards, he regularly packed auditoriums when he spoke. His depth of experience allowed him to become an intermediary between worlds. This is his story. Find out more at www.ravenswitness.com, and learn how you can help bring this story to life here.

Book excerpt: Advice books are no short-lived trend. They continue to top bestseller lists even though much of the "wisdom" being offered proves shallow in the long run. People are looking for practical, proven advice for life and the book of Proverbs is the wisest place to start. Unpacking the book of Proverbs, Lydia Brownback shows how the Bible speaks to real life issues such as money, purity, marriage, and the day-to-day grind. Writing with a familiar yet knowledgeable tone, Brownback draws in the busiest of readers and asks realistic questions for personal reflection or group study. This well-conceived, twelve chapter book contains three parts: What Is Wisdom and Why Does It Matter? Six Things Wise Women Know A Portrait of Wisdom A Woman's Wisdom gives women—a way to be wise, to know the very Author of wisdom, and to understand how to apply his relevant, riches.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! The women of the Bible lived timeless stories—by examining them, we can understand what it means to be a woman of faith. People unfamiliar with Scripture often assume that women play a small, secondary role in the Bible. But in fact, they were central figures in numerous Biblical tales. It was Queen Esther’s bravery at a vital point in history which saved her entire people. The Bible contains warriors like Jael, judges like Deborah, and prophets like Miriam. The first person to witness Jesus’ resurrection was Mary Magdalene, who promptly became the first Christian evangelist, eager to share the news which would change the world forever. In The Women of the Bible Speak, Fox News Channel's Shannon Bream opens up the lives of sixteen of these Biblical women, arranging them into pairs and contrasting their journeys. In pairing their stories, Shannon helps us reflect not only on the meaning of each individual’s life, but on how they relate to each other and to us. From the shepherdesses of ancient Israel who helped raise the future leaders of the people of God, to the courageous early Christians, the narrative of the Bible offers us many vivid and fascinating female characters. In their lives we can see common struggles to resist bitterness, despair, and pride, and to instead find their true selves in faith, hope, and love. In studying these heroes of the faith, we can find wisdom and warnings for how to better navigate our own faith journeys. The Women of the Bible Speak outlines the lessons we can take from the valor of Esther, the hope of Hannah, the audacity of Rahab, and the faith of Mary. In broadening each woman’s individual story, Shannon offers us a deeper understanding of each, and wisdom and insights that can transform our own lives today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you searching for the paved way to true holiness for the Christian woman? The inspiring words of Dr. Totziette Slater will serve as your guide on your path to becoming the woman that God intended you to be. The Woman, the Witness, and the Wife: A Concise Christian Manual for Women collectively explores three women in one that the female Christian should strive to embody-the woman, the witness, and the wife, or the "3w girl"-and practical steps you can take to achieve your goal of spiritual excellence. Dr. Slater's captivating insight will catapult you into a mindset of complete humility with a heart for serving God. Along the way, you'll learn to develop a healthy, Christ-centered thought process, acknowledging your weaknesses as well as your strengths, so you can begin to manage your spiritual walk more effectively. With her perceptive teaching, Slater demonstrates how to understand yourself through the illustration of twelve houses, each representing a certain type of woman at a specific spiritual level. Her approach will enable you to identify the state of your spiritual, emotional, and relational structure and foundation, so you can then begin to fulfill your God-given purpose and aid in the success of other women. The pages of this written journey will enhance your life as a Christian woman, witness, and wife and encourage you to pursue a more excellent walk with God. Dr. Totziette Slater has dedicated her life to seeking the will of God and teaching young women to relentlessly follow Christ. One of her greatest desires is to help the next woman in line to succeed in every area of her life. Dr. Slater has been happily married to the most honorable Dr. Roderick L. Slater Sr. for twenty-three years, and together they have seven beautiful grown babies. She believes that their strength was saying "I do" to Jesus, and their weakness has been not knowing each other sooner. Her one word of encouragement to any nation of people is "Jesus," and she hopes to inspire others to come to know the fullness of God and trust that He will make all things revealed in His perfect timing.
