From the internationally bestselling author of The Disappeared comes a profound meditation on the cultural impact of storytelling and testimony in five intimate and illuminating essays. In this moving collection, critically acclaimed novelist Kim Echlin examines how we turn to literature to measure our lives against the darknesses of our time. Tell Others explores how literature resists silencing and repression with truth and imagination. Echlin skillfully blends her lived experience in different parts of the world—teaching in post-revolutionary China, researching war crimes in the former Yugoslavia, studying under one of Canada’s most respected Elders, Basil H. Johnston—with wide-ranging reading that offers solace and highlights the possibility to transform outrage into understanding and resistance. Looking to her favourite writers—Milan Kundera, Salman Rushdie, Ma Jian, Toni Morrison, Margaret Atwood, and Haruki Murakami, to name a few—Echlin grapples in fresh ways with tyranny, war, sexual violence, and censorship to bear witness to the past and look to the future. Written in characteristically unsparing and evocative prose, Tell Others is an invitation to all readers to acknowledge histories that are difficult to see and to make meaning from the stories that buried bones tell. The author proceeds for this book will be donated to PEN Canada and PEN International.

Storytelling for a World in Turmoil

Tell Others

'[An] authoritative, fascinating account . . . Crucible of Light underlines the complexity of relations, both individual and collective, between the Islamic world and Europe' The Spectator Focusing on major turning points, individual stories, and key places, from Mecca to Cordoba, from Damascus to Venice, and from Vienna to Istanbul, Drayson tracks the themes that unite us - classical learning preserved in Islamic libraries, the enduring influence of Moorish architecture and design, the food we share, the goods we have traded, and the continuing dialogue between individuals and cultures that has permeated Europe's history and shaped its borders. It is a history that sweeps across cities and continents, from Spanish patios and palaces to Ottoman-inspired coffee houses in seventeenth-century London to the Mezquita in Cordoba, once a mosque, now a cathedral, the physical embodiment of the ongoing discourse that continues to shape European identity. 'Absolutely fascinating. At a time when a historical Christian Nationalism and chauvinism are gaining ground, this book arrives as an essential corrective' Andrew Copson, Chief Executive of Humanists UK and author of Secularism: a Very Short Introduction 'A treasure of a book, exploring the frequently misunderstood, often unsung, yet extraordinarily rich intertwining of Islamic and European culture over nearly one and a half millennia' Rebecca Wragg Sykes, author of Kindred

Islam and Europe from the 8th to the 21st Century

Crucible of Light

*INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER* 'One of the master storytellers of our time' - Dr Gabor Maté, author of The Myth of Normal From 'one of the greatest storytellers we have' (Robert Bly), an urgent invitation to allow the oldest stories - and the Greatest Story - to reshape our own. There's an old Irish belief that if you aren't wrapped in a cloak of story you will be unprepared for what the world will hurl at you. You remain adolescent at just the moment a culture worth its salt requires you to become a real, grown, human being. In Liturgies of the Wild, acclaimed mythographer, storyteller and Christian thinker Martin Shaw argues that we live in a myth-impoverished age, cut off from the deep wells of story and meaning that once prepared us for life's challenges. Drawing on the 'ancient technologies' of myths and initiatory rites, Shaw invites readers to rediscover the ancient stories that shape the human soul - and to encounter Christ as the ultimate, transforming story providing a road to wholeness, maturity and connection. Within these pages, Shaw:<ul><li>Teaches us to read a myth the way it wants to be read;</li><li>Provides vivid retellings of tales powerful enough to carry you through life's travails;</li><li>Shows you how to gather and reshape your own thrown-away stories.</li></ul>Most vividly, Shaw shares his own spiritual journey and how these ancient technologies led him - unexpectedly - to Christ, 'the True Myth,' by way of a thirty-year journey and a 101-night vigil in a Dartmoor forest. Blending nimble storytelling in the tradition of C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien with scholarly depth, Liturgies of the Wild s a thrilling counsel of resistance and delight in the face of many modern monsters, providing a transformative journey into story, spirit and self-discovery. Ebury Vine: The Home Of Christian Living. Drawing on the deep roots of Christianity to cultivate curious minds and inspire faith-informed growth.

Dreihundertdreißig Jahre Wissenschaft zu Qur’ān und Islam

This volume is comprised of contributions from internationally respected scholars dedicated to the theme of "The Future of Hermeneutics." These contributions are gathered from research originally presented at the annual International Hermeneutics Symposium in 2023 and 2024. The topic means to draw attention not only to the relevance of research in hermeneutics for our future, but also current developments in hermeneutics that will shape research in the field to come. Hermeneutics originally taught us how to approach texts, authors, and the act of reading itself. Yet today, when experience, existence, language, meaning, and interpretation are challenged by shifting cultural, technological, and ethical contexts, hermeneutics calls for renewal, while staying true to its original calling to be an open and receptive practice of understanding. By attending to the dialogical nature of texts, the fragility of truth, the material circumstances of nature and culture, and the responsibilities of interpretation, hermeneutics offers new perspectives for engaging with the world, aiming to preserve the bonds between word and world, between experience, interpretation, and life. This volume, then, represents research completed in connection with the International Hermeneutics Symposium. The contributions to the symposium will continue to be published, even though from this year onwards in a different, updated form, no longer as a yearbook, but as a volume in a new series: 
 Post-Kantian European Philosophy
 (P-KEP).

Understanding this--and what to do with it today--is the birthplace of personal and communal transformation.When's the last time you encountered such a message? That your creativity is not only built into your very identity, an indispensable part of who you are, but necessary.In an age of AI hype, burnout, and relentless comparison, our creative fire is constantly under attack.

Starting with the biblical story of God as Creator, Spark will equip you with a powerful set of counter-cultural tools, such as how to: <ul><li>Ignite your imagination and break free from creative blocks.</li><li>Rediscover the sacred purpose of original creativity in a world of endless content.</li><li>Embrace risk and failure as fuel for growth and transformation.</li><li>Become part of the Renaissance movement, empowering the creativity of all believers.</li></ul> Whether you're an artist, leader, entrepreneur, pastor, or dreamer, your creativity is essential, and it flows from your soul.

And ignite the potential of your creative soul.Al [Gordon] reminds us that creativity isn't for a few; it's the birthright of every believer. Spark will stir your imagination, strengthen your faith, and send you into the world convinced that your creativity really can change things. -- Jennie Allen, bestselling author and speaker

Ignite your God-Given Creativity

It is widely acknowledged that appeals to tolerance are not as persuasive as they once were. Some argue that such calls simply reinforce the permissiveness that plagues our society. Others argue that tolerance does not go far enough and that positive recognition of differences should be our aim. To these, tolerance is judgmental and insulting. In response to these critiques, some seek to recover the lost foundations of tolerance as a virtue of coexistence without reciprocal affirmation. As An Augustinian Essay on Toleration shows, many of the problems affecting contemporary tolerance discourse were already present in the early modern world, where these lost foundations are typically sought. This explains the need for this more radical project of recovery that draws from Augustine and the Augustinian tradition. Like other classical authors, Augustine treats tolerance as a virtue needed in the face of adversity and evil. Unlike these other authors, however, Augustine offers deep philosophical reflections on evil that provide relevant reasons for toleration. This book demonstrates that Augustine's views on evil, history, personhood, conflict, and hope are consistent with a constructive Augustinian view of tolerance. The book discusses the nature of tolerance as a virtue, its place as a political practice, and questions of toleration that arise in relation to intermediate associations.

'In a world that often makes people feel invisible or overlooked, Jennifer has written something truly profound, a book that arrives at exactly the right cultural moment [...] do yourself a favour and pick this one up. You'll be glad you did'ANTHONY SCARAMUCCI'The perfect antidote to our modern mental health epidemic'PROFESSOR TIM SPECTOR'Beautifully written and deeply felt' SUSAN CAIN------------------From award-winning writer Jennifer Breheny Wallace, a deeply consequential look at restoring closeness in our relationships and how feeling connected - mattering - can bring purpose and happiness to our lives.In a world where loneliness, burnout, and disconnection have reached crisis levels, Jennifer Breheny Wallace offers a transformative solution: mattering. Through vivid storytelling and groundbreaking research, Mattering: The Secret to Building a Life of Deep Purpose and Connectionreveals how feeling seen, needed, and valued isn't just a nice-to-have-it's essential for our wellbeing and society's future.Filled with stories of individuals who have discovered the power of mattering, from the story of a fire chief who re-energized his emotionally exhausted team by helping them see their long-term impact, to a woman who transformed her grief into a movement helping thousands rebuild their lives, Wallace shows how mattering can be cultivated in every sphere of life. She demonstrates that when people feel they truly matter-that their presence and contributions are noticed, needed, and missed when they aren't there-everything changes. Productivity soars, relationships deepen, and communities strengthen.Drawing on compelling research and intimate portraits of people who've discovered the power of mattering, Wallace provides a practical blueprint for creating lives of deeper meaning and connection. She reveals:<ul><li>How small acts of recognition can transform workplace culture and prevent burnout</li><li>Why helping others often energizes us rather than depletes us</li><li>How to build "mattering spaces" that foster genuine connection in our communities</li><li>Practical strategies for navigating life transitions while maintaining our sense of purpose</li></ul>Perfect for readers of Brené Brown and Adam Grant, this timely book offers both hope and concrete solutions for our modern crisis of disconnection. Mattering isn't just another self-help guide-it's a revolutionary framework for rebuilding the connections that make life meaningful and creating positive change that ripples outward from ourselves to our relationships, workplaces, and communities. With clarity and compassion, Wallace shows us that the antidote to our cultural crisis of isolation isn't to turn inward, but to recognize how much we matter to each other. This book will forever change how you think about your role in the lives of others and offer a path to a more connected, purposeful life.
