Are you looking to strengthen your relationship with God? Do you find yourself untangling the threads of what it is you really believe? Are you longing for a deeper connection to your spiritual side? Bunmi Laditan has been in your shoes. In the midst of her darkest days, Bunmi began writing down her deepest fears, hopes, dreams, and frustrations with God in the form of letters. The result of Bunmi's soul-searching journey is Dear God, a collection of funny, heartbreaking, and deeply insightful prayers that put words to the emotions we all feel as we grapple with this broken world and search for divine love. With the same gutsy and poetic honesty that has already charmed readers around the world, Bunmi now shares these moving, intimate conversations with God--prayers and poems that chart her story of reconnecting with the God she loved, lost, and found once again. Dear God catalogs what we're all thinking as we work out our personal relationships with God. These candid field notes will stir your heart and make you laugh out loud with Bunmi's self-awareness and profound insight into the spiritual journeys we're all doing our best to navigate. Join Bunmi as she travels through those all-too-familiar emotions--doubt, anger, joy, desperation, love, loneliness, and gratefulness--that humanity has always wrestled with. Wittily fresh and stunningly relatable, she exquisitely shares the painfully honest questions she's asked along the way, including: God, what is holiness? God, how can it be worth it to love life when it could slip away at any moment? God, what do I do when forgiveness feels impossible? God, I know you love me, but do you like me? This poignant collection of prayers is a timely reminder that even when we wander, God never leaves our side.

From activist, spiritual leader, New York Times-bestselling author, and 2020 presidential candidate Marianne Williamson comes a prayer for healing America Prayer is practical, Williamson tells us. “To look to God is to look to the realm of consciousness that can deliver us from the pain of living.” Illuminata delivers prayer into our daily lives with prayers on topics from releasing anger to finding forgiveness, from finding great love to achieving intimacy. There are prayers for couples, for parents, and for children, prayers to mend broken relationships and prayers to overcome obsessive and compulsive love. There are prayers to heal the soul, prayers to heal the body, and prayers for work and creativity. Williamson also gives us prayers for the healing of America, including a prayer of amends on behalf of European Americans to African Americans and one to Native Americans. How, Williamson asks, can we expect anyone to forgive when we have made no formal apology? “Read my prayers or someone else’s,” Williamson says. “By all means, create your own.” Illuminata brings prayer into practical use, creating a sweeter, more abundant life. “No conventional therapy,” she says, “can release us from a deep and abiding psychic pain. Through prayer we find what we cannot find elsewhere: a peace that is not of this world.”

There is always a struggle between living and living right. There is a need to forgive and be forgiven. There is the urge to thank God and then question him. There is the unclear path that brings despair. Dear God Save Me is a group of letters to God that only convey glimpses of the things that weigh on the heart as a person tries to live righteously. These letters offer God praise and thanks, questions him, begs his forgiveness, and suggests doubt. The author, Nicole Lake Watson, admits that the paths she has taken haven't always been best. Instead of giving up, she asks God for strength and safety while offering encouragement to others. Dear God Save Me has been her start to peace and it can be yours.

A couple of years ago I started to keep a spiritual journal, which I wrote as daily letters to God. Each letter contains my thoughts of all the events, which have occurred in my life. As a result I feel closer to God each day. Because I feel that each of us is on our own, personal, individual spiritual road, I decided to publish and share these letters.

Addressing the different seasons and concerns of a woman's life, this beautiful, elegantly designed book takes you before God's throne of grace with honest and heartfelt prayers. You may be dealing with the clutter and demands of your career. Or perhaps you're experiencing the strange mix of anticipation and anxiety a bride feels on the night before her wedding, or counting the blessings and the frustrations of motherhood, or remembering the echo of children's voices in your now empty nest. Whatever your circumstances, God is with you, filling the corners of your life, inviting you to come as you are and draw strength and reassurance from His presence. Woven throughout with Scripture verses and quotes from writers of the past and present, Dear God, It's Me and It's Urgent will help you find the words for things you sometimes find it hard to express, and gain new perspective as you draw close to your heavenly Father in prayer.

THANK YOU GOD FOR MAKING ME A WOMAN "The Torah believes in the potential and capabilities of every man, woman or child, Jew and gentile alike, and clearly believes that men and women were created equal, and with their own distinct, respected role in the world. " - Rabbi Aaron L. Raskin Where would the Jewish people be without the discernment and wisdom of Jewish women - qualities they possess far in excess of men? Time and again, holy text and real-life experience prove this. "The Talmud reveals that it was in the merit of the righteous women that our forefathers were redeemed from the land of Egypt," writes the author. "About this, the Arizal explains that the souls of this generation are a reincarnation of those souls, and therefore, the women of this generation will once again bring about the redemption for all people." This book aims to show that it is a mistaken belief that Judaism values the male contribution to its daily liturgy and life more than the female. In a clear and compassionate style, it lays out traditional observance and new scholarship with simple language. Ultimately, the Jewish woman's role as ubiquitous force in daily life becomes clear: her power is subtle, mystical, transformative. Her role isn't marginal, it's essential. Mystical teachings tell us that women were granted understanding (bina) in greater measure, and therefore only they can transform a concept of wisdom (chochmah) into action (daat). Hence, we might extrapolate that no holy thing can come about if, in some way, a woman's wisdom is not behind it. Discernment is a female quality; and it's time we understood and acknowledged its presence in daily Jewish life. Online Listings Done: Other
