Somos un puente: El camino de un médium para conectarse con las almas

by Jonathan Jiménez

¿Qué es la mediumnidad? ¿Qué es un médium? ¿Es posible que las almas de quienes ya no están en este plano se comuniquen con nosotros? ¿Cómo leer esas señales y percibir su presencia? Esta es la historia de un joven que, desde muy temprana edad, comenzó a intuir la presencia de seres que ya no están en este plano: voces, sombras, figuras humanas, palabras y hasta olores. Al principio, eso significó desconcierto y miedo, la perplejidad frente a una experiencia para la que no tenía palabras. Pero con tiempo y entrega, Jonathan Jiménez consiguió organizar esa información que percibía, "ponerle límites" y así entablar una conversación cuando él estuviera listo y de la manera que él lo requería. A partir de un relato íntimo que aborda los primeros encuentros, su camino de aceptación y entendimiento de la mediumnidad y, más adelante, las sesiones con quienes atraviesan un duelo, el autor nos revela la misión principal de las almas y una historia de vida emotiva, honesta y también extraña. La de una persona con el don peculiar de ser médium, que lejos de inquietar al lector, le llevará consuelo, desahogo y lo guiará para seguir adelante en paz, con la certeza de que las almas no se van, están entre nosotros y el amor nunca muere.

Son of Tears: A Novel on the Life of Saint Augustine

by Henry Coray

“This is the kind of book, and the kind of writing, which the Christian reader so desperately need—realistic yet firmly Christian, lively and historically exact, with real human beings living out convincing lives.”—The Reformed JournalHere, ranging from debauched student life in Carthage to impassioned devotion as the Bishop of Hippo, is the story of St. Augustine, perhaps the most significant figure in all of Christianity since St. Paul. The son of a wealthy and profligate Roman, Augustine was torn between conflicting religious opinions as his student life bridged the cults which had developed around the true church. With simple intensity, Mr. Coray describes Augustine’s relationship with his mother, Monica, the unquenchable fire of his passion for his mistress, Melanie, and the change of heart which led him to conversion. Augustine is frequently remembered only as a “saint”; SON OF TEARS helps to place him in perspective, a citizen also of this earth, where once he was someone’s son.

Son-Rise: The Miracle Continues

by Barry Neil Kaufman

This is an expansion of the author's book Son-Rise, which appeared in the 1970s. The author recounts how he and his wife learned that their son Raun had autism, how they became disenchanted with the services of professionals, and how they ultimately developed a radical new method for working with their son at home. Rather than attempting to suppress Raun's autistic behaviors, they joined him in twirling objects, rocking, and hand-flapping as a way of relating to him. In this way they were able to build Raun's trust, with astounding results. Kaufman describes several other children who have benefited from this approach.

Para salir mejores de esta crisis necesitamos ver claro, elegir bien y actuar en consecuencia. Hablemos del cómo. Atrevámonos a soñar.

Por último, el Papa propone un proyecto inspirador y concreto para construir un mundo mejor que coloca a los desfavorecidos y al planeta en el centro de un nuevo pensamiento, y muestra que cuando los individuos se unen para actuar a pesar de sus diferencias pueden descubrir imprevistas y maravillosas posibilidades.

Song So Wild and Blue: A Life with the Music of Joni Mitchell

by Paul Lisicky

From the celebrated novelist and memoirist, a gorgeous account of how Joni Mitchell’s work has shaped his writing throughout his life.From the moment Paul Lisicky heard Joni Mitchell while growing up in New Jersey, he recognized she was that rarity among musicians—a talent whose combination of introspection, liberation, and deep musicality set her apart from any other artist of the time. As a young man, Paul was a budding songwriter who took his cues from Mitchell’s mysteries and idiosyncrasies. But as he matured, he set his guitar aside and turned to prose, a practice that would eventually take him to the Iowa Writers’ Workshop and into the professional world of letters.As the decades passed, Paul’s connection to Mitchell’s artistry only deepened. Joni’s music was a constant, a guide to life and an artist’s manual in one. As Paul navigated love and heartbreak and imaginative struggles and the vicissitudes of a creative career, he would return again and again to the lessons found in Joni’s songs, to the solace and challenges that only her musicianship could give.Song So Wild and Blue is a gorgeously written, beautifully intimate, and unique tribute to the woman who shaped generations of creators and thinkers. Lisicky offers his own coming-of-adulthood as testimony to the power of songwriting and staying true to your creative vision. A guide to life that is part memoir, part biography, and part homage, Song So Wild and Blue is a joy for devoted Joni enthusiasts, budding writers, and artists of all stripes.

Sons and Daughters: Spiritual orphans finding our way home

by Brady Boyd

Using practical, firsthand stories that offer helpful, portable takeaways, Pastor Boyd looks at the interweaving of his journey from spiritual orphan to treasured son, offering candid stories and freeing insights for every Christian still longing to come home. The truth is, many of us as Christians still strive to “fit in” with God even when our Father offers us the identity of beloved daughters and sons. We’ve already been admitted, approved, and accepted—but we aren’t living that way. In Sons and Daughters, Pastor Boyd looks at the interweaving of God’s grace and our daily lives: How do those who know they are God’s children think, speak, and act differently? How do they function as leaders and friends? How do they walk through pain? You—and the purposes God has for you—are a cause for celebration, a reason to be both fearless and faithful. Come discover how to live like you belong.

Soon: An Overdue History of Procrastination, from Leonardo and Darwin to You and Me

by Andrew Santella

“Casually erudite, full of delicious anecdotes and brutal honesty, it is catnip, in book form, for procrastinators and non-procrastinators alike.” —Jennifer Egan, Pulitzer Prize–winning authorLike so many of us, including most of America’s workforce, and nearly two-thirds of all university students, Andrew Santella procrastinates. Concerned about his habit, but not quite ready to give it up, he set out to learn all he could about the human tendency to delay. He studied history’s greatest procrastinators to gain insights into human behavior, and also, he writes, to kill time, “research being the best way to avoid real work.”He talked with psychologists, philosophers, and priests. He visited New Orleans’ French Quarter, home to a shrine to the patron saint of procrastinators. And at the home of Charles Darwin outside London, he learned why the great naturalist delayed writing his masterwork for more than two decades.Drawing on an eclectic mix of historical case studies in procrastination—from Leonardo da Vinci to Frank Lloyd Wright, and from Old Testament prophets to Civil War generals—Santella offers a sympathetic take on habitual postponement. He questions our devotion to “the cult of efficiency” and suggests that delay and deferral can help us understand what truly matters to us. Being attentive to our procrastination, Santella writes, means asking, “whether the things the world wants us to do are really worth doing.” “Well-researched . . . [Soon] argues that in many cases eminent figures have done great work while putting off work they were supposed to be doing. Procrastination might, for some people, be part of innovation and the creative process.” —The Wall Street Journal
