In Growing in Love and Wisdom, Susan Stabile draws on a unique dual
perspective to explore the value of interreligious dialogue, the
essential spiritual dynamics that operate across faith traditions,
and the many fruitful ways Buddhist meditation practices can deepen
Christian prayer. Raised as a Catholic, Stabile devoted 20 years of
her life to practicing Buddhism and was ordained as a Tibetan
Buddhist nun before returning to Catholicism in 2001. She begins
the book by examining the values and principles shared by the two
faith traditions, focusing on the importance of prayer-particularly
contemplative prayer-to both Christianity and Tibetan Buddhism.
Both traditions seek to effect a fundamental transformation in the
lives of believers, and both stress the need for experiences that
have deep emotional resonance, that go beyond the level of concepts
to touch the heart. Stabile illuminates the similarities between
Tibetan Buddhist meditations and Christian forms of prayer such as
Ignatian Contemplation and Lectio Divina; she explores as well such
guided Buddhist practices as Metta and Tonglen, which cultivate
compassion and find echoes in Jesus' teachings about loving one's
enemies and transcending self-cherishing. The heart of the book
offers 15 Tibetan Buddhist practices adapted to a contemplative
Christian perspective. Stabile provides clear instructions on how
to do these meditations as well as helpful commentary on each,
explaining its purpose and the relation between the original and
her adaptation. Throughout, she highlights the many remarkably
close parallels in the teachings of Jesus and Buddha. Arguing that
engagement between religions offers mutual enrichment and greater
understanding of both traditions, Growing in Love and Wisdom shows
how Buddhist meditation can be fruitfully joined to Christian
prayer.
* Hopeful and uplifting in tone * Understands prayer as something
which is actively 'lived' rather than as something 'set apart'
Since earliest times Christians have used pebbles, a string of
knots, or beads on a cord to keep track of their prayers, and
prayer beads can be found in virtually every major religious
tradition in the world. Anglicans and other Protestants have also
begun to use the rosary to help refresh a life of prayer--it
creates a rhythm that helps wean us from our distractions and focus
our attention so that we can more readily move into God's presence.
As the beads and prayers recede into the background, the mysteries
that make up the rosary come into our minds and hearts like
religious pictures or icons. First published by Doubleday in 1975,
J. Neville Ward's unusual collection of meditations offer an
entirely new approach to the rosary for all Christians. He begins
with its traditional use and then offers fifteen insights into the
life of Jesus and his mother Mary that can speak to us today. Thus
a meditation on the sorrowful themes reminds us of the suffering
that is so much a part of our own lives, while the joyful and
glorious mysteries speak of the desire for faith, hope, and love
that will heal them. These reflections serve up a rich spiritual
repast for Christians seeking new contemplative practices and
learning to pray with the rosary.

applications which will inspire and challenge readers to catch the
fire for a life of prayer themselves.

El pastor Mark Batterson sostiene en su libro -Circulos de oracion-
que dibujar circulos de oracion alrededor de nuestros suenos no es
solo un mecanismo que nos permite lograr grandes cosas para Dios.
El tambien lo utiliza para lograr grandes cosas en nosotros. Alguna
vez has sentido que tiene que haber muchas posibilidades mas en tu
oracion, y en la vision de Dios para tu vida? Te invitamos a
aprender de Honi, El Hacedor de circulos, un hombre lo
suficientemente audaz para dibujar un circulo en la arena y no
salirse de el mientras Dios no contestara sus oraciones por su
pueblo. Cual es ese gran sueno imposible a cuyo alrededor Dios te
esta llamando a trazar un circulo?"

meditations offers a brief respite from the hectic, harried pace of
our days. Open it when the spirit moves you or when the spirit
feels distant--the words will be here to inspire, calm, and
encourage you either way. From gifted poet and empathetic pastor
Meta Herrick Carlson, Ordinary Blessings collects blessings for
loving yourself, enduring hard things, authenticity, living with
others, and the rhythms of each day. Pause, take a deep breath, and
open these pages to find that you've been standing on holy ground
all along."
