Muddy Pearl Heart Fire: Adventuring Into a Life of Prayer
Book SynopsisWhat is prayer? How does it work? And does it even help at all? Where do we start and where will it lead? These are questions that Johannes Hartl has spent his life exploring. Questions that have found their answers through encounter, experience and often through travel - a journey of discovery that has taken Hartl into the very heart of true prayer. Weaving together stories of individuals, movements and moments he has encountered across the world, Hartl invites you to join him on an incredible adventure. Exploring different approaches to prayer, such as contemplative, intercessory, creative, powerful and revelatory prayer, Hartl encourages us to rediscover the true heart of prayer - a God who hears us and wants to speak to us. For those who want to experience the power of prayer or who are struggling to pray, this book is full of thoughtful insights and wisdom, combined with reflective applications which will inspire and challenge readers to catch the fire for a life of prayer themselves.

Muddy Pearl Simply Pray: 12 Steps to a Transformed Life
Book SynopsisIn the gospel of Luke, the disciples of Jesus ask Him, “Lord, teach us to pray.” They saw the great importance Jesus placed on having a daily rhythm of prayer and they wanted to learn how to have this same rhythm in their own lives. And so can we. In this refreshingly different look at prayer, Johannes Hartl explores twelve simple ways to build a thriving prayer life—twelve steps that have transformed his life. Hartl encourages readers to explore different forms of prayer, from embracing silence, to creating your own `inner garden’ in which to meet with Jesus wherever you are, to overcoming the scripts and traffic in our heads that prevent us from encountering God. With inspiring stories, spiritual exercises, and practical ideas, Simply Pray will help you develop daily rhythms of prayer, even in the hectic pace of day-to-day life. For those who long to meet with God in prayer, experience more depth, and discover God’s presence in the everyday, Simply Pray is an invitation to the biggest challenge and the loveliest secret—the adventure that will change your life.

Luath Press Ltd Art, Truth and Time: Essays in Art
Book SynopsisArt, Truth, and Time is a book which endeavours to show that artistic creation depends as much upon the body, as it does the soul, and the soul’s intelligent use of the body’s way of understanding. When there occurs a complete disjunction between the two, as occurs in much of contemporary art, art is stripped of its inherent beauty, its wholeness. In this book the author considers the nature of art from its earliest manifestations to the present day, endeavouring to show that its truth transcends time and place through the unity of soul and body and man’s awareness of this unity, not a barren unity, but a unity which is profoundly creative.Trade Review'This book is lighting from a clear sky. For one who has spent many years contemplating the vastaterra which is the landscape of contemporary art, the words of the writer – clear, lucid, limpid as a summer stream – offer hope and consolation. Here is a vision of art which is supremely sane, lit with the light of heaven which can be touched with our fingers, called by St Thomas Aquinas organa organorum, the tool of tools, then held close in the dizzy course of time so that truth might be known in our world. This book should be read by all those who care about the fate of art in our times.' -- CHARLES STEPHENSTable of ContentsAcknowledgements 9 Foreword 11 Preface 13 PART ONE – Art and Truth The Experience of Truth 16 Art, Truth and Time 18 PART TWO – Art and Humankind Body and Soul: Some Reflections on Art and Religion 24 The Sense of Touch Versus Conceptual Art 28 Why Artists Need Hands and the Process of Individuation 35 PART THREE – Criticism Spontaneity and Objectivity 41 Relativism: Art Without Object 46 Boredom and ‘The Art of Change’ 51 Technology and Technique Versus Art 56 The Importance of the Subjective: the True Meaning of Originality 63 PART FOUR – Art and Death Two Contrasting Images of Death: or Horizontal and Vertical Images of Death 70 Art and Death: the Endless Search, the Enduring Present 77 PART FIVE – Architecture To Innovate with Tradition: the Aesthetic Spirituality of Dom Paul Bellot, Architect and Monk 88 Visual Silence in Monastic Architecture: Cistercian Architecture of the 12th and 13th Centuries 95 APPENDIX 101

Darton, Longman & Todd Ltd 40 Days With Labyrinths: Spiritual reflections
Book SynopsisLabyrinths have been a treasured part of Christian spirituality for centuries. The journey along a winding path, with twists and turns, unexpected obstacles, and the satisfaction of reaching journey's end, creates an ideal opportunity for mindful and prayerful reflection upon our lives and God's plan for us. In this book, Fay Rowland presents a brilliant modern take on Bible study and labyrinth-walking. She offers forty short, biblical meditations on the challenges and blessings of daily life, each accompanied by a labyrinth illustration which you can 'walk' - just with your finger, or perhaps with colouring pens or pencils - as you reflect on the reading. As in life, some of the labyrinth journeys are simple, while others present a more complicated path! 40 Days with Labyrinths is ideal for personal reflection during Lent or at any other time of year.
