Recital of Love is a collection of treasures gathered up in prayer. Each one focuses on something precious to God, hopefully giving us an insight into his heart and the grace to look at life with a different, more eternal perspective. Written as nuggets of wisdom and encouragement in poetic prose, these pieces are garnered from silent contemplation, and presented to be savored by all God’s beloved children.

Lyden argues that the cultural influence of films is analogous to that of religions, so that films can be understood as representing a “religious”...

The writer will be found to be sympathetic with all sincere...

Accepting what is does not negate the difficulties in finding a “new normal” for family traditions, whether it is in the food we eat, the locations, or the very real hole that is left in the fabric of what has always been a celebration. Author, Jody Neufeld, brings her...
