Описание:
"Among cornfields, junkyards, and a Dairy Queen, the eclectic cast
of Rustin Larson's Lost Letters and Windfalls marches across a rural
stage: an old woman small 'like a burlap bag/ full of nylons, ' family
members, angels, finches, the wind, the muse, and a young girl in a
Degas painting. The poet asserts: 'The light falls upon all things. I
have/ my memory of you--quiet as a/ picture frame among all these
broken houses.' In poem after poem, Larson captures images firmly
cast in time yet eternal--even slightly holy: 'But here's what we are:
each man, each woman, / each neuter object, a church.'"
"'Listen, ' Larson urges, 'the world/ begins in a moment.' The
moments described in these poems are painterly and vivid. The poet
trusts only his 'sense of touch.' They conjure a world of isolated
stillness where characters can 'choose to stand outside of ourselves
if we wish, the snow falling.' But also a world of connection where
'planets are fishing/ for us, wanting/ us' and ' t]he moon is the
friend of the earth / and the earth of the sun.' This is a book of small
tendernesses and lightning bolts that will stay with you."
Rustin Larson's poetry has appeared in The
New Yorker, The Iowa Review, and North
American Review. He won 1st Editor's
Prize from Rhino and was a prize winner in
The National Poet Hunt and The Chester
H. Jones Foundation contests. A graduate
of the Vermont College MFA in Writing,
Larson was an Iowa Poet at The Des Moines National Poetry
Festival, and a featured poet at the Poetry at Round Top Festival.
He is a poetry professor at Maharishi University, a writing instructor
at Kirkwood Community College, and has also been a
writing instructor at Indian Hills Community College.
His honors and awards also include Pushcart Prize Nominee
(seven times, 1988-2010); featured writer, DMACC Celebration
of the Literary Arts, 2007, 2008; and finalist, New England
Review Narrative Poetry Competition, 1985.

Joseph and His Friend: A Story of Pennsylvania is an 1870 novel by American author Bayard Taylor, a prolific writer in many genres. It presented a special attachment between two men and discussed the nature and significance of such a relationship, romantic but not sexual. Critics are divided in interpreting Taylor's novel as a political argument for gay relationships or an idealization of male spirituality.
The title page carries a quote from Shakespeare's sonnets, Number 144 "Two loves I have of comfort and despair"
The better angel is a man right fair; The worser spirit a woman colour'd ill.
Joseph Aster, a young farmer in his twenties, marries Julia Blessing, a wealthy woman. While returning from a visit to her father, he is involved in a train crash, and in consequence meets Philip Held, who becomes his somewhat older and more worldly friend. As the story progresses, Joseph comes to recognize his wife's manipulative nature and begins to develop a reciprocated romantic attachment to Philip. This is evidenced in Philip's profession of love and "a man's perfect friendship".

Описание: The church as we know it in North America is dying. Statistics make this overwhelmingly clear. And yet, despite this observation, the church remains a resurrection people. How might these seemingly contradictory observations hold true? Taking a cue from Romans 5, Rustin Brian suggests that resurrection necessarily implies death. The church is called to follow Christ. This is a call to come and die. The Christian affirmation is that death is not truly the end, though, but rather the beginning of new and unending life in him. And so the first statement must be tempered by stating that the church is going through death on the way to resurrection. This book is truly one of two halves, then. The first half examines the present death of the church. The second half examines the possibility of resurrection for the church. Throughout, key factors for decline are considered, such as: poor and destructive evangelistic practices, civil religion, moral therapeutic deism, and consumerism. In the end, Brian suggests that the church embrace its peculiarity--the things that make us, dare it be said, a religion. As we embrace our strange beliefs, therefore, and discontinue our obsession with growth and relevance, we just might discover the possibility for renewed and resurrected faith amidst the death that we are experiencing.

Описание: The dominant paradigm in psychotherapy is the medical model, which views therapy as a clinical treatment rather than a healing interpersonal connection. David Elkins argues that while the medical model remains widely accepted, science shows it to be inappropriate. A wealth of evidence suggests that healing occurs through human connection and social interaction, not modalities and techniques.

Описание: Among all the noise, strife, debates, and politics of the last two millennia, the message of Christ has persisted through those who live it. This message is not a doctrine or a secret teaching, but a loving, engaged way of being which Jesus taught plainly and directly. Within this anthology, five authors describe what it means to them to be living this message in their life and time. The authors are:
Leo Tolstoy, the famed late 19th century nihilist who converted late in his life;
J.C. Kumarappa, who struggled for Indian independence with Gandhi, and was known as "Gandhi's economist";
Bayard Rustin, who brought nonviolence and Martin Luther King, Jr., into the American Civil Rights Movement;
Hugh Hollowell, who founded a parish for the impoverished in Raleigh, North Carolina; and
Magdelene Harrison, a prominent young Quaker scholar who rediscovered the Quaker symbol of "going naked as a signe".
