Mystical Hope : Trusting In The Mercy Of God
$13.95Add to cartAt a time when people are yearning for good news, Cynthia Bourgeault’s new book invites us to find our way to the hope that does not disappoint or fail. In our usual way of looking at things, hope is tied to outcome: I hope I get this job or I hope my mother gets well. The Bible introduces us to a different kind of hope that has its source not in events but in the mercy of God, a lifeblood of compassion connecting our heart to God’s heart and the heart of all creation.
In five interwoven meditations, Mystical Hope shows how to recognize this hope in our own lives, where it comes from, how to deepen it through prayer, and how to carry it into the world as a source of strength and renewal.
Mystical Hope is one of our series of Cowley Cloister Books: smaller format, gift edition books designed for meditative and devotional reading.

Soul Weavings : A Gathering Of Womens Prayers

SOUL WEAVINGS: A Gathering of Women’s PrayersAs Christians, we are part of a vast community of believers, most of whom we will never meet. Yet, through their writings, women of other times, places, and cultures can become our companions, encouraging us to take risks, helping us to go on when the way is difficult, teaching us how to pray. Through these companions of the soul God “comes to meet us in the hardest hours,” “challenges us to change the world,” and helps us “to behold God in everything.”
Why use written prayer? A well-written prayer is like a picture, capturing a view of one person’s spiritual landscape. As with pictures, we will be drawn more to some than others. Some prayers will help us to identify how God is already present in us and in the world. Others will become a real encounter with God, transforming us and calling us to respond with our lives. Still others may reveal our longing for the relationships we would like to have with God, and with those around us. Certain prayers become favorite resting places for times when our resources are low; it is easier to accept our own struggles when we find that we are not alone.
Prayer books become like good friends, who sometimes comfort and sometimes challenge us. They connect us with “thoughts higher than our thoughts, prayers better than our prayers, and powers beyond our powers, that we may spend and be spent in the ways of love and goodness.”

Daily Chase
$24.99Add to cartThere is a vast difference between having an encounter with God and having a relationship with Him. It’s like the difference between a sprint and a marathon. Anyone can start a marathon-but the honor goes to those who finish and finish well.

Stamina and direction can be more important than speed.This book is dedicated to people who are more than Sunday morning sprinters. They understand that a relationship with God is a Daily Chase.
May this devotional be fuel for those dedicated God chasers who do not simply desire to run, but to finish the race and finish well.
This book is more than a Sunday morning “fun run.” This is a red lights flashing, sirens blaring, “in-hot-pursuit” book!
Read and Run!
