Description: Dare to be Rare is an American phrase that means 'dare to be different', or more freely translated perhaps, 'be yourself' - the person that God created you to be.Don't let the Americanisms put you off from what should be a rewarding book for younger women - an underpublished area in Christian terms.Taking Romans 12.2 as its inspiration, "Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, you may prove the will of God, what which is good, acceptable and perfect", the book dares women to explore critical issues in their lives such as self-esteem, courage, honesty, identity through the lens of scripture and experience, and offers the positive message that we are all loved and valued by God.The author is certainly someone that dares to be rare. She is also a woman of faith and courage who has overcome cancer and still finds time to preach the Word and raise a family.This book is great for personal use, but perhaps ideally suited for small groups that can be formed from fellow church goers. Go on, give this book a try and you too can "Dare to be Rare!"

Description: The Word Is Very Near You: A Guide to Praying with Scripture by Martin L. Smith, an Episcopal monk, is among the most useful and beautifully written books about prayer in print. Its title, taken from Deuteronomy 30:14 ("The word is very near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart, so that you can do it.") is a relief, a promise, and a challenge. Smith's straightforward, flowing prose sparkles with natural wit and insight as he describes how laypeople can participate in the ancient practice of lectio divina ("holy reading"), a very slow, meditative engagement with Scripture whose effects flow out into a person's whole inner and outer life. Smith explains, "Meditative prayer ... does not confine itself to the surface levels of reasoning and talking and thinking. It won't be a matter of the head, and tidy, controlled conversations with the Lord. This kind of praying will involve the inner world where the invisible springs of our actions lie, it will penetrate to levels of deep need, disturbance, feeling, levels where we are hurt and warped, and levels where we have wants not at all satisfied by conventional palliatives, and gifts waiting to come out of bud." The first half of this book explains what meditative prayer is, and how it often works in the life of a believer. The second half contains suggested themes and biblical passages for prayer. Smith, who is widely known among Episcopalians as a spiritual director, has masterful knowledge of Christian tradition and of modern psychology, and his book wears this considerable learning very lightly. As a result, he can speak an ancient message in contemporary language with greater integrity than anyone writing about Christian spirituality today. If you are looking for one book about prayer that will honor your emotions, respect your mind, give you rest, shake you up, and change your life, this is it. The Word Is Very Near You has such good news: you really can do it. --Michael Joseph Gross

Description: A book of Advent meditations, written from the perspective of those who witnessed the events leading to the birth of Christ. Written in Katerina Whitley's usual warm, engaging style, each of these meditations assumes the persona of one individual - from Mary's mother Anna, to her cousin Elizabeth, to the midwife who assisted at the birth of Jesus, and so on. The perfect size for individual Advent devotionals.
