How can we make the gospel central to our lives?For decades, Stanley Hauerwas has been provoking Christians with his insistence that if they would only follow their Master, it would impact all areas of life, from the personal to the societal.The lanky Texan whom Time magazine dubbed “America’s theologian” for his zinging insights into today’s ethical questions says Christians should stop bemoaning their loss of cultural and political power and instead welcome their status as outsiders and embrace the radical alternative Jesus has had in mind for them all along.These accessible readings selected from Hauerwas’s seminal books will introduce a timely, prophetic voice to another generation of followers of Jesus tired of religion as usual.

People may be more divided than ever. But Howard Thurman says God can still transcend every barrier and heal every wound. Family feuds, church splits, racial tensions, political polarization, systemic injustice, and international conflicts can all be overcome if we keep turning to God.Thurman’s message is rooted in his belief that true spirituality will transcend individualism and alleviate injustice and suffering. As spiritual advisor to civil rights leaders such as Martin Luther King Jr. and James Farmer, Thurman made the connection between faith and action.In these selections from his many books, Thurman reflects on the power of silence, contemplative prayer, the need for community, and the call to “live in the world as it is and still believe in the possibility of redemption.” Whether you are new to his writings or have long admired his work, this little book offers a fresh approach to Thurman’s spiritual vision of reconciliation, justice, and a hope grounded in the transformative work of love in the world.

A rising feminist thinker, Edith Stein examined everything in her relentless pursuit of truth. This ultimately led her to the foot of Jesus’ cross and to taking the veil as a Carmelite nun. Though she renounced fame for a hidden life of prayer and service, history would not pass her by. Because of her Jewish heritage, her life ended in the gas chambers at Auschwitz. Yet she will be remembered for all time as a saint, martyr, and trustworthy spiritual guide, Saint Teresa Benedicta of the Cross.This collection introduces Edith Stein to a new generation, inviting the reader to walk with her on the way that leads to joy, peace, and assurance even in times that test the soul. The selections bring together her most essential writings – reflections, letters, prayers, poems, advice, and spiritual meditations – offering a window into a soul whose love for Jesus gave her life a firm direction from which she never wavered. Whether used for group study or quiet personal reflection, this little book will encourage anyone seeking to follow God in a complicated world.Plough Spiritual Guides: Discover time-tested, life-changing wisdom from spiritual masters in these compact, portable books that can be absorbed at one sitting and revisited often.
