Lewis C: What Christians Believe / LF

What Christians Believe

In her first book, the popular From the Front Porch podcast host and independent bookstore owner challenges the idea that loud lives are the ones that matter most, reminding us that we don't have to leave the lives we have in order to have the lives of which we've always dreamed. Can life be an adventure, even when it’s just . . . ordinary?Annie Jones always assumed adulthood would mean adventure: a high-powered career; life in a big, bustling city; and travels to far-flung places she’d longed to see. But her reality turned out differently. As the years passed, Annie was still in the same small town running an independent bookstore —the kind of life Nora Ephron dreamed.During that time, she hosted friends’ goodbye parties and mailed parting gifts; wrote recommendation letters and wished former shop staffers well. She stayed in her small town, despite her love of big cities; stayed in her marriage to the guy she met when she was 18; and she stayed at her bookstore while the world outside shifted steadily toward digital retailers. And she stayed loyal to a faith she sometimes didn’t recognize.After ten years, Annie realized she might never leave. But instead of regret, she had an epiphany. She awakened to the gifts of a quiet life spent staying put.In Ordinary Time, Annie challenges the idea that loud lives matter most. Rummaging through her small-town existence, she finds hidden gifts of humor and hope from a life lived quietly. Staying, can itself be a radical act. It takes courage to stay in the places we’ve always called home, Jones argues, as she paints a portrait of possibility far away from thriving metropolises and Monica Gellar-inspired apartments.We’ve long been encouraged to follow our dreams, to pack up and move to new places and leave old lives—and past selves—behind. While there is beauty in these kinds of adventures, Ordinary Time helps us see ourselves right where we are: in the middle of messy, mundane lives, maybe not too far from where we grew up. We don’t have to leave to find what we yearn—we can choose to stay, celebrating and honoring our ordinary lives, which might turn out to be bigger and better than we ever imagined.&nbsp;

“James Martin—arguably our greatest writer-priest—has penned a genius meditation on the Raising of Lazarus.

Come Forth combines:<ul><li>Compelling analysis of the biblical text</li><li>Insights about the historical setting of the story</li><li>Spiritual lessons for today’s readers</li><li>Meditations on Lazarus in art and the larger culture</li><li>Stories from Martin’s travels through the Holy Land</li></ul>As he explores these strands in depth, Martin helps us let go of the limiting beliefs that prevent us from experiencing God’s presence in our lives. We need only to open ourselves to the transformative story of Lazarus and trust that God can use it to free us to experience, like Lazarus, new life.

A Feeding the Soul Book

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER“America’s Mom” Tabitha Brown presents an inspirational guide for encouraging positive changes in your life—one day and one challenge at a time.I did a new thing today!Years ago, Tabitha Brown started a 30-day personal challenge that she called “I Did a New Thing!” The challenge was simple. Every day she would do something she’d never done before. Sometimes it was something small like trying a new food. Other times, she’d step it up a bit and speak to someone she’d never spoken to before. Still other times, she’d do the hard thing—facing a fear that she had, like having that tough conversation with a friend. No matter what it was, the point was that she was going to take a leap of faith and watch God open up a new lane for her.One of the “new things” she tried was a vegan challenge. She’d been struggling with illness for nearly a year and was desperately searching for healing. She challenged herself to eat vegan every day for thirty days, and six years later, her life has never been the same—all because she decided to do a new thing.In I Did a New Thing, Tab shares her own stories and those of others, alongside gentle guidance and encouragement to create these incredible changes for yourself and see what good can come from them. Whether that means having the hard conversation or trying for a promotion or simply wearing something different or doing something kind for someone else, Tab has a plan for you: Try one new thing, every single day, for thirty days. You don’t have to wait until Monday or the beginning of a new month or year to get started. There’s no set time and place or any extra preparation required. All you have to do is show up for yourself. And that can start right now.

30 Days to Living Free

I Did a New Thing

A collection of excerpts from C.S. Lewis's letters offering guidance and encouragement to correspondents struggling with intellectual questions, personal conflicts, or ethical dilemmas. C.S. Lewis's writings have inspired spiritual formation, helped people explore joy, facilitated redemption, and taught us the consequences of human choices.Letters on Living the Faith provides wisdom and insight from Lewis—oftentimes to strangers. The letter arrangement is intentional and a felt need driven resource. The sections highlight:<ul><li>Prayer, meditation, spiritual seeking, and Christian formation</li><li>How to put faith into practice, the psychology behind spirituality, and Catholic Doctrines</li><li>Confessions of struggle, questions about Narnia, and consolation and courage</li></ul>This compilation of letters is an intimate gem of wisdom that's easy-to-access for current fans and readers of Lewis, but will also feel approachable for new readers wanting to learn more.Lewis often referred to his role as letter writer as a "mentor by mail." Lewis succeeded so well as a spiritual guide because of his character and the wonderful person he was.

Letters on Living the Faith

"An extraordinary real picture of human beings numbed by catastrophe but still driven by the unconquerable determination of living creatures to keep on being alive." --The New YorkerThe classic apocalyptic novel by Pat Frank, first published in 1959 at the height of the Cold War, with an introduction by award-winning science fiction writer and scientist David Brin."Alas, Babylon . . ." With those fateful words, the world as we knew it ended. When the unthinkable nightmare of nuclear holocaust ravaged the United States, it was instant death for tens of millions of people; for survivors, it was a nightmare of hunger, sickness, and brutality. In an instant, a thousand years of civilization were stripped away.But for one small Florida town, spared against all odds, the struggle was just beginning, as men and women of all ages and races found the courage to join together and push against the darkness.Pat Frank's classic disaster novel, first published in 1959 at the height of the Cold War, remains prescient in its vision and immediate in its horror.

Darcey Steinke, acclaimed author of Flash Count Diary and Suicide Blonde, explores the world of pain for those who suffer and those who love them.One-fifth of Americans live in chronic pain. Pain is a state we all will all endure.Darcey Steinke gets to the heart of pain with her usual brilliance, humor, and empathy. In chapters that trace the body—The Spine, The Heart, The Knees, and more—she takes&nbsp;sufferers into the understandings of pain through history, philosophy, religion, pop culture, and reporter human experience. Steinke takes readers under the knife, through the archives, and across oceans. She interviews working physicians, analyzes the writings of Frida Kahlo, recounts her own back surgery, and journeys to Lourdes, where she finds herself invited to help.Taking on a subject relevant to us all—whether we are hurting or know someone who is—This Is the Door illuminates the experience of pain and its myriad effects on the body, mind, and soul. For readers of Joan Didion, C. S. Lewis, Sheila Heti, and Leslie Jamison, it is destined to become a classic.
