|
The Golden Thread Geoffrey S. Childs Who is not haunted by such questions as, "Who am I?"; "Where do my feelings and thoughts come from?"; "What is the purpose of life?".

|
|
As For Me and My House, We Will Serve The Lord by Bradley D. Heinrichs Hardcover, © 2023 General Church of the New Jerusalem 201 pages
During his many years as a New Church pastor, Rt. Rev. Bradley Heinrichs noticed that some parents had remarkable success in passing on their love of the church to their children, while others parents were less successful. This led him to reflect on the question, What can we do as parents to increase our children's chances of loving the Lord, reading the Word ,and embracing the teachings of the New Church?
The result is this brilliant and thoughtful book, based on twenty principles drawn from the Word and illustrated with moving examples from his own upbringing as a boy growing up in the New Church. Some of those principles include such things as remembering the Sabbath Day, educating our children about marriage, and urging self compulsion. While these principles are well known, you will find that his illustrations are unique, inspiring and delightful. This book is a rich blessing, filled with heaven-sent guidance about how to raise children that might become the angels of heaven they are intended to be.

The Holy Center: A Biblical Path to the Presence Within By Dorothea Harvey
The Holy Center offers a uniquely practical understanding of Biblical passages. The inner meanings of the commandments concerning the Tabernacle, the details of worship, and particularly the laws of sacrifice, are brought out through the author's use of Swedenborg's symbolism. By treating the commandments as psychological truths, the author shows us how they may be applied in our journeying today.
This is the second edition of the original work printed in 1983.

A Book About Dying
|
|
A Book About Dying Robert H. Kirven
Composed at a time when Robert H. Kirven was coping with the terminal illness of his wife, A Book about Dying affirms that the universal fear of death is eased by knowing what comes after. Using the unique Swedenborgian perspective of the afterlife and his own hard-earned knowledge of the day-to-day realities of caring for a loved one, Kirven writes of the spiritual experiences of the dying and of the survivors; offers practical advice on measures that can lessen the burden on the sick and the caregiver; and convincingly asserts that "for patient and survivor alike, living really does continue after dying."
ISBN: 978-0-87785-175-1, 155 pages, 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 inches, paperback, 1997
