This is one of the greatest works of a truly profound author. This volume challenges mediocrity in the Christian life at its very core. The reader will come away from it with the certainty that he has sat at the feet of one who has frequented the very throne of God. The reader will also sense a Divine pull on the deepest recesses of his heart, as the author describes the kind of intimacy with God we all long for.

The one who wishes to remain stagnant amidst religious ritual should stay away from this potent medicine, but the one who wishes to remember why we pursue the life we do and longs to regain the heavenly perspective will find a strong welcome antidote against mediocrity and earth-mindedness.

This is a must read for any and all who seek the presence of God.

6 frameable posters each about 18" x 12" (with no folds!)--a bargain! One might quibble with the choice of images, but it would be hard to choose 6 images from Curtis' vast catalog that everyone would agree on.

This book has helped many to discover how to think about different world views and their ramifications. The author focus gives reasons for accepting at first many differrent world views and then focuses on one which gives satisfaction in all areas. This is not an easy book for many to read but will help any who read to align with Truth.

from Minneapolis Star-Tribune, Aug.29, 1998, p. B-10: "A panorama of Christian saints, but also including such people as the founders of AA, is outlined with prayers, information and worship suggestions. Readings are included for each one and a morning call to prayer along with a prayer of praise. It's a richly textured, handy guide to spiritual development."

This a fabulous collection of current day psalms. I was amazed how wonderful and thought provoking they are! After the psalsm are reflections that pull you in even deeper. The writing is very artistic and wonderful. The spirituality is break-taking! If your prayer life needs a little charge, this will do the trick!

Edward Hays has once again marveled us with his modern day parables to challenge man's soul. Every story has you pondering, trying to apply the message you've learned to your own "hermitage".

Mother Teresa was one of the best storytellers of our time. All her talks contained stories from her own life, which she told with passion and fervor. In her informal conversations with her sisters, visitors and guests she always used stories very effectively. These were always short, clear and to the point. She often used events that she herself had experienced or incidents that she had witnessed. In every case there was some wit and wisdom, which made the idea connected with it clear and memorable. They conveyed profound truths about human life and our relationship with the Divine.

This small book contains 109 such stories told by Mother Teresa. They have been compiled and edited by Edward Le Joly and Jaya Chaliha. Le Joly has worked with her for more than three decades and has nearly 25 books to his credit, some of which are on Mother Teresa. He gives a beautiful introduction to this collection. Each story narrated here is precious as it is designed to provide deep insights. Through the different stories the editors have successfully drawn up the story of the life and work of Mother Teresa and her Missionaries of Charity. Her message to the world comes alive through these little anecdotes from that life. This is a wonderful book for spiritual reading, meditation, and reflection.

My fiancee and I have been reading this book together. While we prepair for marriage we have been struck by the honesty and reality shown in this book. We have cried and talked about ourcommitment to our relationship, to one another, to our choice. It has been invaluable. I suggest this title to anyone getting ready to marry for the first time or the second.

This is the greatest book I have ever read, the author of this book is a genius and am now in the process of reading his other books. Edwards has showed us how Jesus is the ultimate victory

Edwards tackles the subject of sabbath in a logical order and manages to keep track of both the need for rest and the need to yield to a Higher Power's "transcendent command." The reading is a little chewy at the outset and it is entirely worth the effort. Don't skip around. For wading through an interesting--and long--treatment of sabbath history, the reader is rewarded with inspiring insights and loads of practical advice. If you write in the margins of books you will be scribbling furiously. Unlike other books on the sabbath, Edwards keeps God in the forefront while maintaining an apealing non-judgemental tone.
