Book Description
IT IS TIME TO LISTEN TO THOSE WHO CARRY THE STORIES THAT SPEAK TO OUR SOULS: There is a deep longing for the universal, for meaning, and for spirit in these times of brilliant discoveries and breathtakingly rapid technological advances. Life has become longer, more complex, and - in many challenging new ways - more demanding. The gifts have been incredible, but the human spirit needs to catch up.In the spring of 2009, Hal & Sidra Stone met with a group of colleagues in a house overlooking the Pacific and, as they sat before the fire, they shared their stories in an intimate series of conversations. They talked about life and death; the challenges and rewards of aging; relationship and psycho-spiritual growth; illness and health; the gift of dreams; and the ever-present golden thread of meaning in the evolution of personal and global consciousness. Dianne Braden, a Jungian analyst, crafted a beautiful book based on these four mornings, masterfully re-creating this very special moment in time.

Book Description
"I am an American Jew by birth. Having faith in Jesus since 1987 . . . I offer this as my worship performance to an audience of one, my beloved Jesus."Do you wonder how some people claim they have "talked with God" or "heard God speaking" to them? Is it possible for you to hear God?Essential to hearing is learning to listen-and that is what Norma Luciano has learned to do since the day a coworker led her to faith in Christ under the golden arches of a McDonald's in Woodinville, Washington.Fireside Chats with God is both a record of the Holy Spirit speaking to her inner person and of her spirit's conversations, "chats," with God. It's her journal of what God has shown her through prayer, meditation, Bible study, and fellowship with other believers. At times God speaks in a gentle voice; other times He corrects her for attitudes and behaviors that hinder her spiritual growth. Always He refers her to Scriptures that underscore His lessons as He asks for her response, and His words never contradict scriptural truth.In chronological order, Fireside Chats with God documents one woman's spiritual journey, but it does more: It offers powerful evidence of a God who lives, acts, and changes people from within. This book provides an example of how you can experience God's voice for yourself.

Book Description
"In the seemingly mundane Northern farm of early America and the people who sought to improve its productivity and efficiency, Emily Pawley finds a world rich with innovative practices and marked by a developing interrelationship between scientific knowledge, industrial methods, and capitalism. Agricultural "improvers" became increasingly scientistic, driving tremendous increases in the range and volume of agricultural output-and transforming American conceptions of expertise, success, and exploitation. Pawley's focus on soil, fertilizer, apples, mulberries, agricultural fairs, and experimental stations shows each nominally dull subject to have been an area of intellectual ferment and sharp contestation: mercantile, epistemological, and otherwise"--

Book Description
The Fireside Chats is the term used to describe a series of 30 evening radio conversations (chats) given by U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt between 1933 and 1944. Roosevelt spoke with familiarity to millions of Americans about the promulgation of the Emergency Banking Act in response to the banking crisis, the recession, New Deal initiatives, and the course of World War II. On radio, he was able to quell rumors and explain his policies. His tone and demeanor communicated self-assurance during times of despair and uncertainty. Roosevelt was a great communicator on radio, and the fireside chats kept him in high public regard throughout his presidency. The series of fireside chats was among the first 50 recordings made part of the National Recording Registry of the Library of Congress, which noted it as "an influential series of radio broadcasts in which Roosevelt utilized the media to present his programs and ideas directly to the public and thereby redefined the relationship between President Roosevelt and the American people in 1933."
