Book Description
A deep well of practical and inspirational wisdom for every Christian writer Imagine you have the chance to spend an hour or so alone with a couple of well-published writers. Imagine they share with you secrets of their art, and reveal how their art relates to their faith. This is the experience awaiting you with the twenty-two authors of this book. In A Syllable of Water, some of today's leading writers of faith reflect on all aspects of the writing vocation and process in ways that will inform and inspire. Philip Yancey, Richard Foster, Luci Shaw, and others discuss everything from the tools of a writer to the ways that they spend their time when they are not writing. Editors such as John Wilson (Books & Culture) and American Book Award-winning Cherokee poet, Diane Glancy, reflect on the value of the editor-writer conversation, as well as the power of revision. And other writers of stature including Doris Betts, John Leax, Erin McGraw, Harold Fickett, Virginia Stem Owens, Jeanne Murray Walker, Scott Cairns, and Eugene H. Peterson offer sage advice on how to approach nearly every imaginable genre from fiction and nonfiction to memoir, poetry, and translation. Editor Emilie Griffin is the author of several books, including Small Surrenders, Doors into Prayer and Wonderful and Dark is This Road. She is a founding member of the Chrysostom Society, a group of distinguished writers who meet periodically to discuss matters of faith and writing.

Book Description
In all the ancient spiritual texts water is depicted as the Source of all Creation from which everything else came into existence. All over the world, in our forefathers' traditions and rituals water is associated with the Primordial substance that has the power to heal, give us strength, and take away the sins. At the same time, modern scientific discoveries proved that our ancestors' beliefs, traditions, and rituals are a legacy and not some simple bet-time stories. Learn how your Emotions, Thoughts, and Intentions are influencing your Life, carried by the life-giving substance we call Water. “This book covers a world of topics about water, from different religious texts, the chemistry and physics of H2O, studies over the past century on observations of fresh water, homeopathy, crystal structure, and different vibrations and forms of water, and back to religion. I learned so much.” (Amazon customer review) “A thorough, well-researched discussion of the significance of water--not only as a fundamental element of our biology and the structure of our planet and the universe--but also its metaphysical, philosophical, and theological importance historically and cross-culturally.” (Amazon customer review)
