Epiphany : a Christian's change of heart & mind over same-sex marriage / by Coren, Michael,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Michael Coren has had a profound spiritual and personal change of heart. Epiphany is about how and why that happened; the reaction from both sides of the fence; and how the Christian doctrine, when studied closely and without bias, heartily supports Michael's findings. As a middle-aged, very white, very straight, very Christian man, he was obliged, first reluctantly and then eagerly, to explore the complex dynamic between faith and homosexuality and to work out a new narrative. The crux of that narrative: God is love. Honest, brave, and rigorous in its scholarship, Epiphany is a groundbreaking book on one of society's most pressing issues."--Provided by publisher.

What about me? : get out of your own way and discover the power of an unselfish life / by Meyer, Joyce,1943-author.;
Includes bibliographical references."As we go about our daily lives, there is a little voice in our minds that's always asking, "What about me?" Maybe your voice says, "When is it my turn to be noticed at work?" or "When will someone in this family do something for me?" That voice may be whispering to you about your finances, your job, or your friends, but it is always encouraging you to think about something you don't have. And sadly, social media and culture in general lead us to focus on this world's concept of happiness and success -- but does it work? Could you be sabotaging your own joy, your purpose, your success? What could you do to get out of your own way? And most importantly, what is God's definition of success? The Bible tells us over and over that the true source of meaning and happiness is a life focused on God and on serving others. Instead of asking when it will be our turn to get a raise, be recognized, or finally make it big, it's time to discover the source of true and lasting of happiness and satisfaction. By walking in this path, we will have more joy and a closer relationship with God than we could ever imagine!"--

Aflame : learning from silence / by Iyer, Pico,author.;
"From the bestselling author of The Art of Stillness, a revelatory exploration of the abiding clarity and calm to be found in quiet retreat. Pico Iyer has made more than 100 retreats over the past three decades to a small Benedictine hermitage, high above the sea in Big Sur, California. He's not a Christian -- or a member of any religious group -- but his life has been transformed by these periods of time spent in silence. That silence reminds him of what is essential and awakens a joy that nothing can efface. It's not just freedom from distraction and noise and rush: it's a reminder of some deeper truths he misplaced along the way. In Aflame, Iyer connects with inner stillness and joy in his many seasons at the monastery, even as his life is going through constant change: a house burns down, a parent dies, a daughter is diagnosed with cancer. He shares the revelations he experiences, alongside wisdom from other non-monastics who have learned from adversity and inwardness. And most profoundly, he shows how solitude can be a training in community and companionship. In so doing, he offers a unique outsider's view of monastic life -- and of a group of selfless souls who have dedicated their days to ensuring there's a space for quiet and recollection that's open to us all. Radiant, intimate and gripping, Aflame offers ageless counsel about the power of silence, and what it can teach us about how to live, how to love and, ultimately, how to die"--
