40 Days in the Wilderness by Dale Clem Pdf

Like Thoreau's "Walden," Dale Clem's account of his 40-day trek on the Appalachian Trail is part hiking journal, part religious, spiritual and philosophical meditation. Clem muses about how the landscapes he traverses reflect and inform our lives, passions, social values, darker impulses and relationship with God. Along the way, he meets a wide variety of hikers, each with their unique issues - sons in troubled relationships with their fathers, women discovering independence and courage, soldiers returning from war trying to reenter civilian life, and more. Positing that walking in nature can heal psychic wounds of all sorts, Clem's personal quest is a prayer journey that also goes inward - he questions his motivation and purpose in life, seeks to mend wounds of his own and pursues closer communion with God. Yet he never fails to appreciate and celebrate the joys and beauty of the American wilderness and the camaraderie of his fellow hikers whose generosity affirms what is best in us.

Walking in the Wilderness by Beth A. Richardson Pdf

People of faith are struggling these days as they watch unbelievable events unfold. The United States, once a refuge for immigrants, has closed its borders to many of the world's most vulnerable citizens. Fear of people different from us has created an atmosphere of hatred, incivility, and violence. We are living in a time of wilderness and exile. Yet the wilderness is a familiar place for those who follow Jesus. Like Jesus, we spend 40 days in the wilderness. During Lent God calls us to examine ourselves, repent, and make room in our lives for the Holy One. Walking in the Wilderness is meant to be a companion for readers' journey through Lent. It may be studied by individuals or groups. The book includes daily reflections for Ash Wednesday through Easter. Sunday of each week introduces a spiritual practice for the wilderness. The practices for the six Sundays of Lent are Being Present, Lament, Lectio Divina, Trust, Compassion, and Hospitality. Each reading contains a quotation from an Upper Room resource, a short scripture passage, an insightful reflection and prayer written by Richardson, and a single word for readers to carry with them throughout the day. "We come hungry to this season of Lent," Richardson writes, "hungry for words of life, for rituals of preparation, for disciplines to help us on our way." Walking in the Wilderness provides a spiritual feast for readers during the longest season of the Christian year.

40 Days and 40 Nights by Timothy Murphy Pdf

40 Days and 40 Nights reveals the struggle of Jesus alone in the wilderness. The physical and mental challenges Jesus faced took him to the edge of survival. All of the pleasures and delights of the earth were used by Satan to tempt Jesus. When these failed, hell's demons attacked. But even hell's fury could not extinguish 'God with us.' All of creation watched Jesus' desert experience, for truly, life as a reflection of God's love made visible was dependent on the outcome.

Jesus: His Story in Stone by Mike Mason Pdf

Jesus: His Story in Stone is a reflection on still-existing stone objects that Jesus would have known, seen, or even touched. Each of the seventy short chapters is accompanied by a photograph taken on location in Israel. Arranged chronologically, the one-page meditations compose a portrait of Christ as seen through the significant stones in His life, from the cave where He was born to the rock of Calvary. While packed with historical and archaeological detail, the book’s main thrust is devotional, leading the reader both spiritually and physically closer to Jesus.

Through Israel’s self-discovery, he shows how important it is to accept the love Jesus offers. In Learning to Love in the Wilderness, he shares his story.

Finding Faith by Sharon Gallagher Pdf

As the media portrays it, modern Americans live their lives as though God were not part of the picture. Yet according to polls, two out of five Americans attend church weekly and even more profess belief in God. Sharon Gallagher turns her focus on those people who are moving in and out of church attendance, telling the stories of the people who in ways both expected and unexpected have come to faith and are willing to talk about their doubts and joys, and in doing so shows us how God continues to work in the lives of people today.
