Paperback. Etat : Good. Discover what God has written onto your heart. What do you want for your life? Who do you want to be in your life, and how do you want to live? When it comes to making a consistent effort to be a better person, it helps to have constant reminders encouraging you along the way. In Note to Self: Creating Your Guide to a More Spiritual Life, Episcopal priest Charles LaFond introduces readers to the concept of a Rule of Life, an ancient method for building soul memory and offering reminders to ourselves of the person we hope to be--in other words, the practice of training your mind and soul to be kind and good. In this book, LaFond makes the case that creating your own Rule of Life is grace that only you can offer to yourself, helping remind you to live the life you desire and the life God wishes for you. For anyone looking to improve themselves to grow closer to Christ, this book is the perfect mix of wisdom, creation, and application.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. When we are initiated into the church with the water of baptism, we (or our sponsors) answer a series of questions called the Baptismal Covenant. The first three questions echo the words of our creeds, our beliefs about God and the church. The last five questions focus on action. They each begin with the words: "Will You?" These "Will You" questions articulate how we are to animate our baptism, to follow Christ's example in our relationships with others, our communities, and the world. These questions move from a "gathering in" to a "sending out"--they are a call to embrace and practice evangelism by proclaiming the Good News of Christ in all we do and say. This five-week Lenten small group study offers daily reflections, examples of evangelism in action, and an invitation to think in new ways about the promises we make to God, each other, and ourselves in baptism.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. Before Jesus broke the bread, he blessed it. In the age of social media, where people's lives are curated to show only their best and most beautiful selves, it is easy for an individual person to believe that they are the only one who is broken. The truth is that everyone is broken and in need of God's blessing. No one has it all together; no person is perfect. In essays both humorous and achingly vulnerable, author Ryan Casey Waller urges readers to join him in pouring out their brokenness, not just to God but to each other. Waller takes readers through the trials of following Jesus during seasons of doubt and disbelief, anger, shame, and even hate, but always comes back to the amazing news that Jesus blessed the bread before he broke it. Through Jesus, brokenness is blessed, wounds healed, and hearts made whole.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. So much in our lives has obscured our God-given beauty. The integrity of the likeness of God has broken apart, the foundation has not been firm.

The book weaves prayer, poetry, and art with contemporary stories of brokenness, joy, and discovery to guide the reader to a place of spiritual renewal. The book is a cornerstone of a national initiative, also called The Restoration Project. Perfect for both individuals and group study.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. How can we love and serve God with gladness and singleness of heart? For more than a decade, Episcopal priest Christopher H. Martin has studied and explored this question.
