The Heartbeat of GodFinding the Sacred in the Middle of Everything
Insights from a pioneering leader in world religion,on the intersections of the sacred & the secular.
Explore our connections—as human beings with each other, as onenation with all other nations, as the human species with the whole ofour environment—through the lens of faith. Katharine Jefferts Schori,presiding bishop of The Episcopal Church, examines these connectionsas she looks at the intersections of faith with the major issues of our day:
• How does faith speak to poverty, climate change, theeconomy, health care, and what is the faith response?
• How can believers from many faith traditions findcommon ground while honoring the Divine, serving oneanother and creating deeper community?
• How do we best use the resources of faith to connect us tothe hearts of our neighbors and to the heart of God?
“With her elegant, light touch, shows how in an authenticChristianity … everything is sacred except sin.”
—Archbishop Desmond Tutu

Discover how just one moment of close attention can be a prayer to God.
Paying attention is rarely easy to do. It requires focus, patienceand a willingness to slow down—traits that are hard to come by inthis hurry-up world.

In this inspiring guide, you will discover ways to develop apractice of attention as a means of talking—and listening—toGod. Framed on the Christian liturgical year and paired withimages of the seasons of the earth, each chapter includes aninsightful and poignant narrative that illustrates the surprisingrichness to be found in every attention-getting moment.Following each narrative is a prayer, suggested scripture readingsand a specific exercise you can use to develop your own practiceof attention as a means to better connect with God.
Accessible, humorous and meaningful, these words andpractices will lead you further along your path toward discoveringa deeper awareness of yourself and your relationship to all that isaround you—and within you.

Hearing and listening are two different things. Learningto listen—really listen—requires sacred practice.
The Sacred Art of Listening guides you through forty practices of deeplistening—to our Source, to ourselves and to each other.
Inspiring text and contemplative artwork combine tocommunicate the three essential qualities of deep listening—silence, reflection and presence. They demonstrate that the key tohealthy relationships and spiritual transformation can be as basic aspracticing the art of listening.
You will learn how to:• Speak clearly from the heart• Communicate with courage and compassion• Heighten your awareness and sensitivity to opportunities
for deep listening• Enhance your ability to listen to people with different
belief systems
“Unlocks multiple doors of separation and allows the reader toenter into realms of authentic and clear relationships.”
—Rt. Rev. William E. Swing, Episcopal bishop, diocese of California;founder and president, United Religions Initiative
Poor listening leads to misunderstandings and lostopportunities. Learning to listen well requires
spiritual practice.
It happens at work and at home, with strangers and close friends, inheated debates and in quiet conversations—we hear someonespeaking, but we don’t truly listen.
Kay Lindahl’s highly respected workshops are attended bypeople from a broad range of backgrounds. Her first book, TheSacred Art of Listening, has been published to acclaim in NorthAmerica, Europe and Asia. Now she offers practical, easy-to-followadvice and exercises to enhance your capacity to listen in a spirit-filled way. Using examples from her own life and her work as ateacher of the sacred art of listening, Lindahl explores the natureand use of silence, reflection and divine presence as foundationalqualities of listening and shows you how you can apply these in youreveryday life.
This valuable workshop-in-a-book examines the varied ways weare called to deep listening, including: contemplative listening •reflective listening • heart listening • listening in groups • listeningin conversations • and more…
You will find yourself inspired to discover how different yourconversations will be when you stop just talking and start really listening.

Religion Gone AstrayWhat We Found at the Heart of Interfaith
A challenging look at the deeper dimensions ofinterfaith dialogue—that which divides uspersonally, spiritually and institutionally.
Virtually everyone acknowledges difficulty with some aspect of theirown religious tradition, even if they are wholly devoted to their faithidentity. These vulnerabilities can inhibit meaningful personalengagement with a faith tradition but they can also feedmisunderstanding between religious institutions and undermineany hope of authentic interfaith dialogue.
Expanding on the conversation started with their verysuccessful first book, the Interfaith Amigos—a pastor, a rabbi andan imam—probe more deeply into the problem aspects of ourreligious institutions to provide a profound understanding of thenature of what divides us. They identify four common problemareas in the Abrahamic faiths—exclusivity, violence, inequality ofmen and women, and homophobia—and their origins.
They explore the ways critics use these beliefs as divisive weapons.And they present the ways we can use these vulnerabilities to openthe doors for more profound personal relationships, collaborationrequired to address our common issues, and true interfaith healing.

Fly Fishing—The Sacred ArtCasting a Fly as a Spiritual Practice
Capture the spiritual potential inherent in every cast of the fly rod.
We go fly fishing to catch fish, to experience the rush of adrenaline whena trout rises to the surface, grabs the fly, and the line goes taut. But thefly line is more than a way to connect human beings to fish. Each cast ofthe fly line connects us to nature, to others and to the Divine Presence.
In this unique exploration of fly fishing as a spiritual practice, anEpiscopal priest and a rabbi illuminate what each step on a fly-fishingtrip has to teach us about reflection, awe and wonder of the naturalworld, the benefits of solitude, the blessing of community and thesearch for the Divine. Tapping the wisdom in the Christian andJewish traditions, they outline seven steps of a typical fly-fishing tripand the lessons found within:
• The Off-Season and Fly Tying: Anticipation and Preparation• The Drive to the River: Unplugging from the World• Wading into the Stream: Finding Our Place in Nature• Fly Casting: Searching for God at the End of the Line• Setting the Hook: Life and Death on the Stream• The Drive Home: Contemplation and Reflection• “It Was This Big”: Sharing Our Stories
For people of all faiths and all levels of fly-fishing experience—ornone. Includes “Getting Started,” guiding first-time anglers throughthe basics of fly rod and fishing gear, casting a fly, places to fly fish, andsuggested readings and websites.

Women, Spirituality andTransformative LeadershipWhere Grace Meets Power
A dynamic conversation on the power of women’s spiritual leadership and its emerging
patterns of transformation.The world is in crisis and it seems that many are looking to women toheal the planet and our human family. Before women can step intoour full potential as leaders and guides in this moment, we mustindividually reconnect with our deepest wisdom and with ourspiritual roots; collectively heal the many dimensions of separationthat keep us fragmented and ineffective as agents of social change;and globally reclaim our rightful place as spiritual leaders in serviceof a balanced and compassionate new paradigm.
This empowering resource engages women in an interactiveexploration of the challenges and opportunities on the frontier ofwomen’s spiritual leadership. Through the voices of North Americanwomen representing a matrix of diversity—ethnically, spiritually,religiously, generationally and geographically—this book will inspirewomen to new expressions of their own personal leadership andinvite them into powerful collaborative action. Topics include:
• How do our spiritual values inform us about living with thechallenges and blessings of diversity?
• How do we stand for the greatness of each other?• How do we catalyze our collective transformational power as
women of spirit and faith?
