George Dardess - Meeting Islam
In a world besieged by interfaith conflict, Dr. Dardess opens the doors of
understanding between Christianity and Islam.
Ted Pollock & Beverly Reeves - Ted's Legend
As a young man, Ted Pollock longed to be a foreign missionary, but believed God only sent doctors, preachers, teachers, and those with college degrees. Bored with school, Pollock had dropped out of seventh grade during the Depression, so all he had to offer God was his two hands. Fortunately for thousands of people worldwide, Pollock was wrong. He had exactly the skills and heart needed to be a missionary: For almost seven decades, he’s worked as Christ’s globe-trotter, a mission builder tangibly demonstrating the servant message of the gospel. Building hospitals and schools, designing windmills to provide irrigation, and engineering innovative housing that is economic and useful in remote locations, Ted Pollock has always helped people with his hands-on missionary work.
Donald F. Schwab - Therapist as Priest: The Spiritual Dimensions of a Therapeutic Relationship
Contemporary interest in spirituality is widely evident in the media, books, journals and programs of renewal. There has also arisen a kind of permission among empiricists and the social sciences alike to renewed dialogue between science and spirituality once so intrinsic to any complete understanding of healing. Therapeutic work, whether from a secular or spiritual framework, belongs to the ennobled professions as that of healing. Professional therapists working from either secular or religious orientations are invited by this book to understand, recognize and utilize the spiritual dimensions of a therapeutic relationship without compromising either the science of their craft or the religious sensibilities of those who seek their help.
Gloria Ulterino - Drawing From Wisdom's Well & Walking With Wisdom's Daughters
Gloria Ulterino, an active Roman Catholic laywoman, has conducted an artful ministry of storytelling and liturgy for parishes, retreat settings and faith groups since 1998. From her popular work in the ecumenical community has come these wonderful volumes of literature...with evocative illustrations by Jane Pitz.
