Each week, we carefully curate a handful of books for church leaders that orient us toward the health and the flourishing of our congregations.
#1:
A Stone for a Pillow: Journeys with Jacob
Madeleine L’Engle
*** $4.99 ***
In this book for the curious, spiritual seeker, Madeleine L’Engle offers relevant lessons drawn from the life of Jacob from the Old Testament. Here, the son of Isaac becomes a spiritual companion to L’Engle, equipping her to deal with earthly and psychological struggles. Throughout her journey, L’Engle offers contemporary answers to questions that burden modern day readers and believers. With her customary fearlessness and candor, she broaches such topics as the significance of angels, redemption, sexual identity, forgiveness, and the seemingly constant conflict between good and evil.
#2:
A Holy Haunting: Why Faith Isn’t a Leap but a Series of Staggers from One Safe Place to Another
Sam D. Kim
*** $0.99 ***
“A Holy Haunting Integrates the head, the heart, and the feet into the vision of the Human Journey, Sam calls us all to migrate back home to our true selves and to set our sights on the land of genuine freedom, deep connectedness, and spiritual communion.”
-Rev. Daniel Groody C.S.C, Ph.D., Professor of Theology and Associate Provost at the University of Notre Dame
#3:
The Vandana Shiva Reader (Culture of the Land)
Vandana Shiva
*** $2.99 ***
Presenting the essential writings of black lesbian poet and feminist writer Audre Lorde, Sister Outsider celebrates an influential voice in twentieth-century literature.
“The Vandana Shiva Reader provides an important East-West agrarian bridge connecting two of the world’s great democracies and their struggles with industrial agriculture as it drives out sustainable alternatives, destroying both ecosystems and human communities along the way. To read Dr. Shiva’s work is to feel the power of a fertile theoretical mind engaged in fierce and inspirational acts of resistance. Hers is a unique voice.”
―Bill Vitek, coeditor of The Virtues of Ignorance: Complexity, Sustainability, and the Limits of Knowledge
#4:
The Power and the Glory: A Novel
Graham Greene
*** $2.99 ***
“The Power and the Glory’s nameless whisky priest blends seamlessly with his tropical, crooked, anti-clerical Mexico. Roman Catholicism is intrinsic to the character and terrain both; Greene’s imaginative immersion in both is triumphant. . . . The energy and grandeur of [Greene’s] finest novel derive from the will toward compassion, an ideal communism even more Christian than Communist. Its unit is the individual, not any class.”
—John Updike
#5:
Forgiving Our Fathers and Mothers: Finding Freedom from Hurt & Hate
Leslie Leyland Fields
*** $2.99 ***
“A call to very hard, but very vital, work of the soul.”
—Dr. Henry Cloud, leadership expert, psychologist, and best-selling author
“Leslie Leyland Fields and Jill Hubbard take us into raw, messy stories so we can be transformed by that mysterious and painful grace in the force called forgiveness.”
—Scot McKnight, Northern Seminary
