Book Description
The second half of life--which we can enter at any age--is that time when we begin the process essential to a mature faith: discovering who we are, exploring our relationship with God, and beginning to let go. This part of life has a depth and spirituality all its own--a need for structure and rule, a tolerance of ambiguity, an exploration of limitation and mortality, and the deep work of discipline and detachment. Margaret Guenther brings her insights as a spiritual director to the gifts and opportunities of those of us who are on this journey to "holy ground." In each chapter, Toward Holy Ground explores the practical aspects of spirituality in midlife: intercessory prayer, a sense of community, a rule of life, lightheartedness, detachment, and stripping down, preparing for "a good death." A final chapter discusses practical aspects of ministry to the frail aged.

Book Description
Religions worldwide celebrate Earth's abundance and sustenance, and call on humankind to give thanks, practice compassion, seek justice, and be mindful of future generations. Here, leaders from many faith traditions, along with writers who hold nature sacred, articulate the moral and spiritual imperative of stewardship and share personal stories of coming to understand humans' unique power and responsibility to care for creation. Holy Ground features essays, sermons, and other short pieces from, among others, Pope Benedict XVI, Orthodox Patriarch Bartholomew I, Islamic scholar Seyyed Hossein Nasr, Rabbis Zoe Klein and Arthur Waskow, Evangelical pastors Joel Hunter and Brian McLaren, environmental justice proponents Allen Johnson and Kristin Shrader–Frechette, Native American novelist Linda Hogan, and writers Wendell Berry, Gary Snyder, Terry Tempest Williams, and David James Duncan. In a world polarized by "culture wars," religious extremism, and political manipulation, this collection is a sure sign of hope.

Book Description
Drawing on his Roman Catholic background, personal interviews with Catholics and Evangelicals, and years of research, Chris Castaldo takes readers on a fascinating and practical exploration of the challenges and opportunities encountered by Catholics who become Evangelicals. He examines the five major reasons why Christ’s followers often leave the Catholic Church, and shows how to emulate Jesus in practical ways when engaging Catholic friends and family. And, with humor and authenticity, he shares his own faith journey in order to help readers understand and work through their own.For those who are tired of scratching their head in confusion or frustration about how their Catholic background may influence their walk with Jesus, and why on earth their Catholic family believes they’ve gone off the deep end, Holy Ground offers vast insight and practical help. More than providing historical perspective, theological reflection, and practical lessons, it shows readers how to emulate the grace and truth of Jesus Christ in relating to the Catholic people whom they love.

Book Description
"The dreams in our hearts have to be matched by our craftsmanship in the world." Spiritual seekers in the 21st century take many forms, from the visionary and futurist to the social activist and rebel. Yet whatever your inner calling, writes internationally renowned teacher Gloria Karpinski, you can benefit from the practical guidance of other seekers on how best to manifest your spiritual intentions in the nitty-gritty reality of everyday life. A new companion for traveling purposefully on the path, Barefoot on Holy Ground helps you learn how to call forth the good in every circumstance and use it to further your mission and consciousness. Through numerous enjoyable, effective exercises and meditations, you will learn how to integrate your inner and outer resources of mind, body, emotions, finances, and careers into your personal practice. This will free you to become a disciple–in the modern sense–to your own higher calling and service to the world. Drawing on the wisdom of ancient scriptures and contemporary thinkers from many world traditions, tapping into her own and other disciples’ real-life stories and insights, Karpinski shares the Twelve Lessons of Spiritual Craftsmanship that are essential to the disciple’s path. These easy-to-follow lessons are divided into three parts: Knowing the Way explores the ways we recognize and understand our mission through Knowledge, Revelation, Body Wisdom, and Discernment; Becoming the Way illuminates the fundamental building principles of strong discipleship: Love, Will, Faith, and Power; and Fulfilling the Way reveals the practical process through which we bring our journey to fruition by Creating, Transforming, Enduring, and Serving. Integration, balance, and wisdom are the benefits of the twelve lessons, the treasured syntheses of yin and yang, light and shadow, heaven and earth. Full of exciting, effective spiritual exercises, Barefoot on Holy Ground leads readers purposefully along the path to Conscious Evolution so that they can embrace their higher calling.

Book Description
Moses saw a burning bush, but it wasn't consumed. Being curious as to why it wasn't consumed, he walked toward it in order to get a closer look. As he drew near, God spoke to him out of the midst of the burning bush and told him to stop and take off his shoes; he was standing on holy ground (Exodus 3:1-5).After revealing Himself to Moses as the God of his father's Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the LORD told Moses that he had been chosen to deliver Israel out of slavery in Egypt into the land He had promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. God speaks to us today from the Bible just as He spoke to Moses from the burning bush. The Bible is our burning bush. Wherever the Bible is read, preached or taught, the one who is reading, preaching or teaching as well as those listening are on holy ground. The preacher or teacher is holy-doing what God called him or her to do as Moses did what the LORD call him to do. When the listeners do what is spoken, they also become holy people. In the Old Testament, God dwelt in a tent made according to the instruction He gave Moses on Mount Sinai (Exodus 25-27). His laws were written on tablets of stone (Exodus 24:12), and His glory was a cloud that filled the tent (Exodus 40:34). All three were observable and holy, and anyone in their presence was on holy ground. The New Testament writers explain how the tent, laws, and cloud that were observable and holy in the Old Testament become spiritual and holy in the life of those who are justified through faith in Jesus Christ (Romans 5:1): the temple of God (1 Corinthians 3:16; 6:19; 2 Corinthians 6:16), God's laws (Jeremiah 31:33; Hebrews 6:10), and the glory of God (2 Corinthians 4:6). Justification, Sanctification, and Glorification are words used in the New Testament to describe the Christian life from the first encounter with God's word-the burning bush and holy ground-to holy people in this life and the coming kingdom of God. Sanctification completes justification, and glorification completes sanctification. Sanctification is living in the dawn of the coming glory-resurrection, eternal life, and the kingdom of God.The New Testament is a commentary on Justification, Sanctification, and Glorification: Justification transforms those who believe on Jesus Christ into holy ground-a dwelling place for God, His word, and His glory. Sanctification transforms those who are justified into holy people- fulfilling the call of God to be disciples, teachers, ministers of reconciliation, ambassadors for Christ, soldiers of Christ, servants, and priests.Glorification transforms those who are holy people into glorified people-living with God in the coming kingdom of God.Each chapter of The Three Word Summary of the Christian Life is an amplification of justification, sanctification, or glorification. And the transition from justification to sanctification is explained through the call of God for the justified to be disciples, teachers, ministers of reconciliation, ambassadors for Christ, soldiers of Christ, servants, and priests. At the beginning of each chapter is a Scripture passage-holy ground. As you read it, you are on holy ground. When you obey it, you are holy. Also included in the chapters are examples of people who have obeyed what God asks you to do in the same passage of Scripture. The examples are testimonies of justification-holy ground, sanctification-holy people, and glorification-faith in the resurrection, eternal life, and the kingdom of God. Hopefully their testimonies will inspire you to do the same, and in turn you will be able to inspire others-make disciples (Matthew 28:18-20).
