This book was recommended to me by my godmother. My faith background was strongly scriptural but lacked meaning. This book has enabled me to connect with a sense of purpose and life that each of us shares a special connection with God. That He created us with a specific purpose and gave us gifts to enable us to engage in our mission for Him. That He placed His Great Seal on those orders and sent us to earth. This book enabled me to look at the work that I do with a greater understanding of why I find it so spiritually draining even though I am "good at it" in the natural. Thank you Dennis, Matthew and Sheila for sharing God's words and helping us all remember why we are here.

Jan Linn's book is an authentic witness to the faith we can proclaim as Christians. It also is a timely reminder of the roots of our shared faith in an ever-changing world. He begins by saying that being open-minded does not require one to throw their faith convictions away to the whims of the loudest voice. Instead, he seeks a balanced approach to the basic tenants of faith without caving into the extreme of fundamentalism or liberalism. Those who want to be a witness to the truth, he says, can proclaim "the truth that they know without claiming to know all the truth there is." The book openly deals with the basics of faith such as the nature of: the Bible, God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. Linn also deals with current controversial issues, such as, divorce, abortion, pre-marital sex, homosexuality, capital punishment and sepatation of church and state in a mature way that calls the church to join in the conversation. Being open-minded and open-hearted, as he calls us to be, is a compelling challenge for today's Christians. While he doesn't do it overtly he invites those who read to examine for themselves what they believe and join in proclaiming a credible faith among all the varied options without becoming condemning or being ambivalent. Having known Jan for many years this treatise of faith stands as an authentic and joyful witness to his own spiritual faith journey. This book was forged from his faith journey as well as his current pastoral ministry.

This book is written in a manner easy to read for those having difficulties in concentrating. I originally purchased this book to give to someone who was cliche-ridden, but decided not to waste it on him/her. Kept it. Wonderful advice. Clear, honest, and hopeful.

This biography has an advantage over all other biographies of Addams: it was written not too long after her death by a family member that knew her well. Furthermore, Weber Linn was an English scholar, so his writing style is very refined and easy to read. Despite its complete lack of citations, the author is very objective to the subject at hand. The end result is a very intimate portrait of one (if not the) most amazing woman in American History. Some of the larger aspects of her life included: forming the Women's League for Peace in WWI, winning the Nobel Peace Prize, setting off the Settlement house movement in United States, and being blacklisted by the House for Un-American Activities (yes, she was that cool!). The greatness of Jane Addams is to be found in the details, however, and this book provides the reader with just that. An amazing life, well told.

Lets you know where all the tokens are so you can finally play Ms Pac Man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Plus it helps with the harder parts of the game even though I beat it without this guide.I got it for the token locations and boy am I impressed.Pac Man rules!!!

why has no one else reviewed this book..? a modern-day "double indemnity" is what it is... perfect...

In an era when many so-called "Mainline" churches are struggling from shattered identity, this book profoundly wrestles with one of the core issues hurting our churches-evangelism.

Jan Linn's approach to this mission imperative is fresh and dynamic. It cuts through much of the popular fluff common in many churches and transcends the stale tradition of others. In the end, Lynn offers a workable model of church growth, ministry, and Christ-centered practice that is revolutionary.

This book is a must read for every Christian concerned with the future of Christianity in American culture.

I purchase this book ten copies at a time and give them away.
I recently expressed to one of the authors, William Emerson, that if I could, I would get a megaphone and announce it from the rooftops. Remembering Our Home is a most gently written, beautifully illustrated book that invites the reader to reflect on the earliest and most impressionable moments of being human--in the womb. If at first this strikes you as improbable to do, consider the countless life dreams and aspirations you, or people you know have had, and somehow, someway fulfillment seems to be just out of reach. Remembering Our Home can help build bridges across the gaps to fulfillment by revealing potential blocks, that can form in our first experiences of feeling physically and emotionally. Some examples of causes of these blocks discussed in the book are being born early, or late, toxins like niccotine or drugs, and parents in a stressful environment. Throughout the book there are suggested processes and tools for accessing our earliest potentials. I was born with a disability, and working with this, and the ample additional referals in the book is transforming the quality of my daily life. I am learning from it to benefit myself and all the babies and children in my world.

This Strategy Guide is a very good thing to have!

Terry Winters describes his ideas and working process in an interview with Adam Fuss in this Matthew Marks exhibition catalog. The book is illustrated throughout with black and white photographs which include studio views, shots of a selection of ink drawings from the series entitled Computation of Chains, and four photographs of etchings related to the series. Each of the fifteen paintings has its own full page photograph.

If you are not familiar with the work of Terry Winters, this is a good first book. His draftsmanship and skills as a printmaker and painter are on display here, but in the limited supply to be expected from an exhibition catalog. The Lisa Phillips book on Terry Winters, if a good used or new copy can be found, is much more descriptive and showcases his printmaking to a greater degree. If you are already familiar with the work of Terry Winters, Computation of Chains makes a fine addition to a personal art library.
