Описание: Mariah Talbot seems to lead a charmed life. Successful and talented, she is an interior designer in Boston`s Back Bay neighborhood and, by all accounts, is fulfilling her dreams. But appearances can be deceiving. Few people know the truth about her tragic past and why she guards her heart so fiercely, or the fact she is still very much in love with a ghost. Andrew Madden is a partner in one of Boston`s elite law firms. Bracing himself for a confrontation on his commute to work one morning, the last thing he expects is to be captivated by the woman who emerges from her car. Mariah is unlike any woman he has ever met, and their attraction is instant. But as he soon discovers, there is much more to her than meets the eye. He clings to the hope that with time, she will come to trust him completely. But time is precious and fleeting. Neither of them could have predicted the bizarre twist of fate that alters the course of their lives forever. Only when Andrew embarks on his own journey, unraveling the haunting secrets of Mariah`s past, does he finally come to understand that love never dies...and neither does the soul.
"There is a rich tradition of wonderful women and other contemplatives who are great resources for thinking differently about Christianity. They emphasized divine love, human compassion, and the radical possibilities of contemplative practices. They were not afraid to criticize the church and indeed thought of their challenge as crucial to their faith. We do not have to lose faith with the beautiful wisdom of this story of intimate and compassionate love, dwelling among us and within us, if we do not want to." from the acknowledgments and note to readers
To those seeking a more open, progressive approach to Christian faith, the Christian past can sometimes seem like a desert, an empty space devoid of encouragement or example. Yet in the latter years of the Middle Ages a quiet flowering of a more accessible, positive approach to Christian belief took place among a group of female mystics, those who emphasized an immediate, nonhierarchical experience of the divine.
In this enlightening volume, Wendy Farley eloquently brings the work of three female mysticsMarguerite Porete, Mechthild of Magdeburg, and Julian of Norwichinto creative conversation with contemporary Christian life and thought. From alternatives to the standard, violent understandings of the atonement, to new forms of contemplation and prayer, these figures offer us relevant insights through a theology centered on God's love and compassion. Farley demonstrates how these women can help to refresh and expand our awareness of the depth of divine love that encompasses all creation and dwells in the cavern of every human heart.
The topic of "Neurotheology" has garnered increasing attention in the academic, religious, scientific, and popular worlds. However, there have been no attempts at exploring more specifically how Jewish religious thought and experience may intersect with neurotheology. The Rabbi's Brain engages this groundbreaking area. Topics included relate to a neurotheological approach to the foundational beliefs that arise from the Torah and associated scriptures, Jewish learning, an exploration of the different elements of Judaism (i.e. reform, conservative, and orthodox), an exploration of specifically Jewish practices (i.e. Davening, Sabbath, Kosher), and a review of Jewish mysticism. The Rabbi's Brain engages these topics in an easy to read style and integrates the scientific, religious, philosophical, and theological aspects of the emerging field of neurotheology. By reviewing the concepts in a stepwise, simple, yet thorough discussion, readers regardless of their background, will be able to understand the complexities and breadth of neurotheology from the Jewish perspective. More broadly, issues will include a review of the neurosciences and neuroscientific techniques; religious and spiritual experiences; theological development and analysis; liturgy and ritual; epistemology, philosophy, and ethics; and social implications, all from the Jewish perspective.

Описание:
The Life of Mary as Seen by the Mystics provides a detailed look at the life of the Virgin Mother from the Immaculate Conception until her Assumption. Compiled by reference librarian and Franciscan, Raphael Brown, in 1951, this work brings together the visions and revelations of four devout women separated by centuries but united in their Catholic faith and piety.
Not much is said in the Biblical gospels of Mathew, Mark, Luke and John regarding the life of Mary. After all, their gospels were intended to tell the story of Christ -- his birth, teachings, crucifixion and ascension.
The Life of Mary as Seen by the Mystics provides greater context to the life of Jesus Christ by bringing the reader closer to his earthly mother. It explains the trials she suffered in order to bring about the salvation of mankind.
This work is unique in that not only is it focused entirely on the Virgin Mary, but its sources were all women as well. The four "mystics" whose writings make up the basis of this work lived in different times and different nations. But they were all devout Catholics who dedicated their lives to their faith.
St. Elizabeth of Sch nau lived from 1129 to 1164. Born in the Rhineland, she entered Sch nau Abbey, where she became an abbess. Her visions were known across Europe, and she was often consulted for advice by learned and religious men.
St. Bridget of Sweden, born in 1303, was the daughter of a wealthy provincial governor. She did not enter a convent, but rather married and had 8 children. After her husband's death, she entered the Franciscan order and dictated over 1,500 pages of revelations regarding the Passion of Christ and the Nativity.
Ven. Mother Mary of Jesus of Agreda was born in Spain in 1602. She founded the Monastery of the Immaculate Conception with her mother and sisters, where she was elected abbess 11 times. Mary of Jesus was said to have visited the New World through bilocation -- being in two places at the same time. She appeared and spoke to Native Americans in Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona without ever leaving Spain. The content of her book, The Mystical City of God, forms part of the basis of The Life of Mary as Seen by the Mystics.
Sister Anna Catherine Emmerich was born to poor Westphalian peasants in 1774. She spent 10 years in a convent, but when it was closed in 1812 she moved to a private home where she spent the rest of her life. She claimed (not without controversy) to have experienced the wounds of Christ, and to witness his daily teachings over the course of three years. She dictated her visions to Clemens Brentano, who later published them based on his notes.
The visions and revelations of these four remarkable women were compiled and condensed by Mr. Brown into a coherent narrative. Beginning with the history of her parents, St. Ann and St. Joachim, it follows Mary from her Immaculate Conception through her life to the Assumption. It describes her many conversations with God and his angels throughout her life, the revelation that she would be the mother of the Messiah, and the trials that she had to undergo to prove herself worthy of serving God's only son.
Rather than intending this work to be a fifth gospel, Mr. Brown meant it to be a secondary text, a "religious novel" providing insight into the Blessed Virgin's humility, charity, and devotion to God. It draws about two-thirds of the history from the writings of Sister Anna Catherine Emmerich and Ven. Mother Mary of Jesus. St. Bridget's visions add to the major events in Mary's life, and St. Elizabeth's writings provide insight into Mary's youth in the Temple and the Annunciation of the angel Gabriel.

Описание: Perhaps the world is saved one act, one click, or one post at a time.
When we do ordinary things with great love, as Therese of Lisieux counseled, we bring beauty and healing to our companions on the Internet and to the planetary mind. The omnipresent God is as near as the next key stroke, the next post or response to another's online comment. We need a whole-person spirituality grounded in a sense of the holiness of all creation and reverence for life, despite the conflicts that characterize our world-and given the amount of time most of us spend online, we need to include these activities in our spiritual lives.
Bruce Epperly guides his spiritual Internet manual with the wisdom of the Christian mystical tradition. These insights, both ancient and modern, help us to claim our vocation as God's companions in healing the world-through the vehicle of social media and other online interactions. Each chapter's dialogue with a mystic concludes with a spiritual practice that enables us to discover, in the spirit of the patriarch Jacob's exclamation, that "God is online, and we did not know it."
