A Message of Life and Love
By John Ruiz
A Message of Life and Love proclaims the
good news of Jesus Christ through a series of meditations. These
meditations attempt to uplift the unique aspects of Johannine theology
(meaning the gospel of John, I John, II John and III John) in ways that
it can be freshly heard in today's world. In this way, these
meditations proclaim Christ and the ways Johannine theology intersects
with today's issues and culture.
*Reviews*
John Ruiz's readable book of reflections in light of the Johannine
perspective is most refreshing. It ignores the traditional lines between
liberal and conservative and examines the meaning of Jesus as he appears in
the Gospel and Letters of John. It would be a helpful tool for reflection
for any faith seeking person. Pastors will find it useful as well, since it
was written to communicate with the congregations he serves as a pastor.
--- Tom Garnhart, District Superintendent, United Methodist Church
John Ruiz's meditations on the Gospel of St. John are both insightful and
thought provoking. Using the metaphor of a choir John Ruiz helps us to
understand his meditations as voices from a choir. A clear message
throughout John Ruiz's book is that the Gospel of St. John is about
listening carefully to the individual voices in the choir while enjoying the
full expression of the music that makes them one in complex harmony.
John Ruiz's meditations are timely for Christians of today. He underscores
the diversity and the inclusiveness of St. John's Gospel. It seems to me
that John Ruiz can listen not only to the voices in the choir but also to
Jesus Christ himself who is the conductor.

Beyond Casseroles: 505 Ways to Encourage a Chronically Ill Friend
by Lisa J. Copen
Call me if you need anything. . ." Most of us have said this to someone with a chronic illness because we didn't know what else to say. We care, but how do we show it? Does a casserole really encourage someone? Why don't people ever call and tell us what they really need? If you've ever wanted to help but didn't know how, this book provides 505 ways to encourage someone who is hurting, including what to say, not say, what to write in a card, and how to reach out to the entire family.
Beyond Casseroles provides refreshingly creative and approachable outreach ideas that go beyond lasagna while also giving a friend the ability to feel independent, respected, and hopeful.
(review) "As a pastor's wife with five chronic illnesses, I wholeheartedly recommend Copen's book from the dual perspectives of ministry and one who lives with pain and illness ever day. Ministry to the chronically ill has sorely been overlooked by our churches. This book needs to be in every pastor's study and every church library. If you would like to learn how to minister to a friend or how your church can touch the life of someone who is truly in need of God's touch, this book should be #1on your to-read list! It's full of practical ways you can put feet on your prayers on an ongoing basis." Donna Toxey, Opelika, AL "We have no wheelchair, no cane, no walker, no outward signs of a serious condition. Beyond Casseroles is the visual aid that just might do the trick in helping others understand what we go through." Steve Appel, who lives with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome; Director of Communications, Joni and Friends International Disability Center

Considering Psychotherapy & God
A New Dimension
By Richard G. Johnson, MD., Ph.D.
In Considering Psychotherapy & God, psychotherapy and religion come together in
an attempt to treat a variety of emotional issues. The author is a certified
psychiatrist and neurologist with an MD and a PhD in psychoanalysis. Dr. Johnson
observes the role that religion plays in finding one's true identity,
determining one's politics, and achieving genuine maturity in life. He examines
the behavioral aspects of religion to answer the question, "what can the science
of psychoanalysis and the practice of religion offer each other?" In so doing,
he not only manages to reconcile the opposites of science and religion, but also
offers new insights into how people can use these tools to better themselves.-

He Loved Them Until the End
The Farewell Materials in the Gospel According to John
by John Christopher Thomas
In this published form of the 1997 Staley Lectures delivered at Southeastern
College in Lakeland Florida, John Christopher Thomas explores the Farewell
Materials in the Gospel according to John. Following a brief discussion devoted
to the nature of biblical narrative, the concentric structure of this text is
explored. Individual lectures are devoted to the signs of cleansing with which
the Farewell Materials begin and end (the Foot Washing and the Prayer of Jesus);
the passages devoted to the themes of Departure, Betrayal, and Provision;
teaching about the Paraclete; and those that underscore the solidarity the
believers have with Jesus. The book concludes with the implications of the
Farewell Materials for Pentecostal Theology and Ministry.

The Little Blue Lamb
By Wayne F. Maxwell, Jr. - Illustrated by Jane M. McCabe
The Little Blue Lamb, also for children, is the story of a little blue lamb that
lives in the holy land during the time of the birth of Jesus. Of course, she
feels badly because she is different from all other lambs and thus wanders the
desert all alone. One day, while she is cooling herself in the shade of palm
tree at an oasis, she is visited by a man leading a donkey bearing a woman—they
give her water to drink and are kind to her. After they leave and Heather falls
asleep, she and many other animals are visited by an angel who tells them to
follow the star where it leads them and they shall find “a love so wonderful it
will change the world forever.” It leads them to the stable where Jesus has been
born. When the baby Jesus touches Heather she knows that blue is a fine color
for a lamb.-

Mosaic Moments
Devotionals for the Chronically Ill
by Lisa J. Copen
Where is God when one is experiencing the pain of chronic illness? He may have the whole world in His hands, but sometimes it feels like He trips, hollering "Oops!" as we are flung from His hands, and our lives shatter into pieces. We look at the fragments of our former self, relationships, careers, and dreams, and wonder, "Where did I go wrong? Why did God allow this into my life? Will God ever heal me?" Mosaic Moments is filled with over 200 devotionals that encourage readers to remain hopeful in the face of illness, because even though they may feel like a broken pot, God is transforming them into something noble—a mosaic! This book is spiritual glue for those feeling crushed in spirit. Through Lisa's devotionals and the contributions of twenty writers, readers will discover that, despite the pain of feeling broken, God is working through their illness to create a precious work of art where they will find unexpected joy.
Each devotional includes scripture and prayer, and the end of the book has concluding thoughts with a call for the reader to dedicate his or her life to Christ.
(reviews)
"Mosaic Moments is the best and most poignant resource I have read. It will fill a big need in the lives of those who live with pain and limitations. I whole-heartedly recommend it!" Aubrey Beauchamp, Founder, USA Hospital Christian Fellowship
"Mosaic Moments is a virtual cupboard brimming with heart-to-heart stories grounded in Biblical truth; it is written by real people in the trenches of chronic illness—people who deal with the very issues I face each day as I live with chronic pain. I finished each serving not simply fulfilled, but encouraged to go on. Mosaic Moments is truly heaven's Chicken Soup for the Chronically Ill Soul." Roberta Messner, Ph.D., R.N., contributor to Guideposts

Our Incomparable God
A Commentary on Isaiah 40-50

gives a scholarly and lucid exposition of Isaiah 40-55. Interspersed throughout

salvation is exultantly proclaimed, promised, and witnessed to. Interpreted in
the light of the New Testament, this gospel calls us to come to God, the
Fountain of Living Water, to allow our sins and spiritual sicknesses to be
lifted from us by his Servant, the eternal Son, Jesus Christ.

Why Can't I Make People Understand?
Discovering the Validation Those with Chronic Illness Seek and Why
by Lisa J. Copen
When living with a chronic illness, the feeling of "No one gets it!" can shift from an occasional frustration to a constant grievance, steering one's spiritual walk onto shaky ground. In Why Can't I Make People Understand?, Lisa Copen, founder of Rest Ministries, provides unique insight into why people crave the understanding of those around them when they are suffering with a chronic condition. This book reveals and addresses the hidden aggravations many chronically ill people deal with and answers tough questions: · How does your attitude affect whether you get the understanding you seek or not?
· Should you pray for others to change their attitude about your illness?
· Why do some prayers get answered, but with poor results?
· How should you respond when people say hurtful things about your chronic illness?
· Is it okay to get mad at God and express your true feelings?
· How can your relationship with Christ help all of the above become less important?
Each chapter ends with a summary, reflection questions for individual or group study, and a scripture, ultimately guiding the reader to recognize that true validation can only come from the Lord.
(Review) "The author courageously addresses her title question, Why Can’t I Make People Understand? by concluding that the one dealing with chronic illness can’t 'make' them do so. Copen prods her readers to maintain an outward focus—to dwell not on misery, but on ministry. Coming from one of Job’s comforters, this could seem like mere religious posturing. But this is a book not of mere philosophical assumption and speculation, but of practical and Bible-based wisdom from one who has been there–indeed, who is there. Her insights are well worth your consideration." Rev. Robert Cottrill, former academic dean and teacher of Millar College of the Bible, Saskatchewan and presently interim pastor of Provost Gospel Church, Alberta, Canada
