Book Description
A compelling collection of the many voices and experiences of trans, genderqueer, and nonbinary Buddhists Transcending brings together more than thirty contributors from both the Mahayana and Theravada traditions to present a vision for a truly inclusive trans Buddhist sangha in the twenty-first century. Shining a light on a new generation of Buddhist role models, this book gives voice to those who have long been marginalized within the Buddhist world and society at large. While trans, genderqueer, and nonbinary practitioners have experienced empowerment and healing through their commitment to the Buddha, dharma, and sangha, they also share their experiences of isolation, transphobia, and aggression. In this diverse collection we hear the firsthand accounts, thoughts, and reflections of trans Buddhists from a variety of different lineages in an open invitation for all Buddhists to bring the issue of gender identity into the sangha, into the discourse, and onto the cushion. Only by doing so can we develop insight into our circumstances and grasp our true, essential nature.

Book Description
“We fell in love with Jesus. Then we had to decide what to do with God.” In Transcending Mysteries: Who Is God, and What Does He Want from Us? Andrew Greer and Ginny Owens take readers on a journey to answer the question: is the God of the Old Testament the same God we relate to and worship today? As the most definitive written revelation of who God is, Scripture has always been vital to the stories of the Christian faith. The Old Testament has proved especially tough for those who have been persuaded by the gracious gospel of Jesus but also desire to surrender to a God they don’t fully comprehend. We adore the Son of God, but what about God the Father? Using Old Testament stories Andrew and Ginny help Christ-followers reconcile a New Testament Redeemer with an Old Testament God and understand what God really wants from His people. They dialog back and forth as they share their own stories of struggle and surrender. Their comments are separated by speaker identifiers that are used throughout. Features include: Old Testament stories that are completed in Jesus' message Dialog between Andrew Greer and Ginny Owens Music lyrics from Andrew and Ginny that illustrate biblical truths Thought-provoking questions for reflection or study

Book Description
Are victims of crime destined to have the rest of their lives shaped by the crimes they've experienced? ("What happened to the road map for living the rest of my life?" asks a woman whose mother was murdered.) Will victims of crime always be bystanders in the justice system? ("We're having a problem forgiving the judge and the system," says the father of a young man killed in prison.) Is it possible for anyone to transcend such a comprehensively destructive, identity altering occurrence? ("I thought, I'm going to run until I'm not angry anymore," expresses a woman who was assaulted.) Howard Zehr presents the portraits and the courageous stories of 39 victims of violent crime in Transcending: Reflections of Crime Victims. Many of these people were twice-wounded: once at the hands of an assailant; the second time by the courts, where there is no legal provision for a victim's participation. "My hope," says Zehr, "is that this book might hand down a rope to others who have experienced such tragedies and traumas, and that it might allow all who read it to live on the healing edge."

Book Description
Can we transcend worry? How do we find contentment? Is it possible to stand firm when the world around us seems so uncertain? Can we still find hope in God's written word? Transcending Worry takes us on a journey of reflection through some verses from the book of Philippians 4 1-13. Familiar and much loved these wonderful verses written by St Paul to the Church in Philippi give us a lot to think and contemplate: "Do not be anxious about anything...... I have learnt to be content in all circumstances..... stand firm ........". How can these verses help us today? John Bloor, a licensed Reader and preacher in the Church of England, a Christian for over 50 years, a confessed worrier, writes having experienced a "light bulb" moment whilst listening to a talk in church on these particular verses. Inspired and written in a time of great anxiety and worry as Coronavirus swept throughout the world. John very much believed he was called by God to write and share these insights and thoughts with others. Taking several years to complete, consideration is given through personal stories, painful times and life experiences. We are transported to Paris; The Louvre Gallery - a Rembrandt painting, the Arc de Triomphe and Notre Dame Church to help us contemplate and provide thought provoking questions. The book includes contributions, stories and life experiences from Saju Muthalaly, Bishop of Loughborough and other friends and church family members that very much informed John's thinking and writing. We are called to serve our faithful and loving God. What does this mean? A closer look at the Rembrandt painting, The Supper at Emmaus, we are challenged to think and reflect on what we might bring to the table.
