Follow Your Tao: A Simple Guide to Balancing Your Energy for Inner Harmony

by Stephanie Nosco

In Follow Your Tao, the teachings of Taoism and the healing system of TCM describe the interconnection between your health and everything you consume physically, mentally and spiritually.Through a clear pathway that links key emotions and feelings to certain organs - known as wu shen or the five spirits, the book describes the five major organ groups or 'spirits' of the body, how to identify when they are out of balance and ways to rebalance them. A chapter is devoted to each 'spirit', which begins with a narrative story that serves as a metaphor or touchstone for the subject. A list of the organs' associations and attributes as well as a description of the organ's physical, emotional and spiritual properties and functions follows. Each chapter ends with a problems and solutions section, with step-by-step 'soul work' exercises to bring you back into balance.ContentsIntroduction 1: Heart & Small Intestine (The Shen) - Setting Boundaries/Decision Making2: Liver & Gallbladder (The Hun) - Creating Your Dreams/Planning3: Spleen & Stomach (The Yi) - Setting Intentions/Moving Forward4: Lungs & Large Intestine (The Po) - Survival and Determination5: Bladder & Kidneys (The Zhi) - Trust and FaithBibliographyIndexAcknowledgements

Following Jesus: Finding Our Way Home in an Age of Anxiety

by Henri J. Nouwen

&“Timeless wisdom for life from one of the great spiritual masters of our age.&”—James Martin, S.J., author of Jesus: A Pilgrimage The beloved author of The Return of the Prodigal Son offers an inspirational and compelling case for why Christianity is still relevant, beautiful, intelligent, and necessary in our modern world. At one of the lowest points in Henri Nouwen&’s life, he gave a series of lectures on the importance of following Jesus in an age of anxiety. Drawn from those talks, Following Jesus reveals the deep turmoil and sometimes turbulent inner life of a man who has become an icon of compassion and vulnerability for Christians and non-Christians alike. He writes eloquently about calling and purpose, fear and hope, and he explains why, with so many choices available to the twenty-first-century seeker, including atheism and secularism, the greatest reward for those looking for fulfillment is to choose belief in God. Along the way he offers warm, insightful, and practical spiritual habits to help readers navigate the narrow, sometimes arduous, but ultimately gratifying road of conviction and faith. Praise for Following Jesus &“Few writers have influenced me more than Henri Nouwen. These newly published lectures offer fresh and timely insights amid the familiar cadences of Nouwen&’s prose, written from a place of deep anxiety but even deeper hope.&”—John Inazu, professor of political science, Washington University in St. Louis, author of Confident Pluralism&“In Following Jesus, beloved pastor and spiritual mentor Henri Nouwen guides the reader on the journey he has traveled as a follower of Jesus. Without minimizing the anxieties, fears, and brokenness that touch down in every reader&’s story, Nouwen gently leads the way into a life that centers on Jesus and engulfs the follower with God&’s love, a sense of belonging, and a purpose that endures. Truly a wise and welcome word for anyone in this age of anxiety.&”—Carolyn Custis James, author of Half the Church: Recapturing God&’s Global Vision for Women and Finding God in the Margins

Following Jesus Christ: The New Testament Message of Discipleship for Today

by John K. Goodrich

A Comprehensive Guide to Discipleship in the New Testament and Today's WorldAlthough the concept of discipleship is an integral part of New Testament teaching, it has largely faded from discussion in both the academy and the local church. To revive and reclaim this teaching for believers in the twenty-first century, editors John Goodrich and Mark Strauss have assembled an expert team of scholars to uncover what every New Testament book teaches about discipleship, providing a comprehensive, biblical picture. In addition, other contributors explore discipleship in the context of the local church, spiritual formation, and the life of the mind. Together, these essays point the way forward for becoming more like Jesus Christ, and helping others do the same, in our personal and corporate lives."An impressive roster of scholars who have addressed a vital but often neglected topic in both the church and in the academy. . . . Rich with insight, Following Jesus Christ represents a major advance in this essential area of study." --Craig A. Evans, Houston Baptist University"We are treated here to a survey of what discipleship means in the New Testament from experts in the field, and we also see some of the wider dimensions of discipleship in this important work. All those wanting to understand discipleship will find this to be a valuable resource." --Thomas R. Schreiner, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

Following the Red Bird: First Steps into a Life of Faith

by Kate Rademacher

In Following the Red Bird, Kate Rademacher describes how she came to embrace a relationship with God after maintaining a pick-and-choose approach to spirituality for many years. Raised in a staunchly secular, liberal community, Christianity was never a path she had seriously considered. Married to a devout Buddhist, Rademacher was sitting on a cushion at her husband’s meditation center one day when Jesus appeared unexpectedly in her consciousness and called her to follow him. She was baptized a year later to the day. Part memoir and part meditation on Christian teachings, Following the Red Bird: First Steps into a Life of Faith explores not only the why of Christianity, but also the how. How do we learn to listen for God’s voice? How do we apply Christian teachings to everyday life? How do we develop and sustain a relationship with Jesus? The image from the book’s title becomes a metaphor for the ways Rademacher slowly discovers answers to these questions as she stumbles into a new life in the church. Both the searcher and the long-time believer will benefit from her experience and insight.

The Food and Feelings Workbook

by Karen R. Koenig

An extraordinary, powerful connection exists between feeling and feeding that, if damaged, may lead to one relying on food for emotional support, rather than seeking authentic happiness. This unique workbook takes on the seven emotions that plague problem eaters - guilt, shame, helplessness, anxiety, disappointment, confusion, and loneliness - and shows readers how to embrace and learn from their feelings. Written with honesty and humor, the book explains how to identify and label a specific emotion, the function of that emotion, and why the emotion drives food and eating problems. Each chapter has two sets of exercises: experiential exercises that relate to emotions and eating, and questionnaires that provoke thinking about and understanding feelings and their purpose. Supplemental pages help readers identify emotions and chart emotional development. The final part of the workbook focuses on strategies for disconnecting feeling from food, discovering emotional triggers, and using one's feelings to get what one wants out of life.
