A Christian Approach to Death and Burial
by Kent Burreson and Beth Hoeltke
A Christian case for natural burial
The promises of the Christian gospel are never more precious or more beautiful than in the context of death and burial. And yet current burial practices in Western society are archaic and impersonal.

paperbackA Community Called Taize
A Story of Prayer, Worship and Reconciliation
by Jason Brian Santos
Foreword by Desmond TutuTaizé--the word is strangely familiar to many throughout the contemporary church. Familiar, perhaps, because the chanted prayers of Taizé are well practiced in churches throughout the world.

Accepting God's Offer to Rest, Weep, Forgive, Wait, Remember and More
Transforming Resources
by Adele Ahlberg Calhoun
Some invitations we desperately want: "Will you marry me?" "Would you consider a promotion?"
