"Here, in these words from his lectures and prayers in the Geneva
Academy, John Calvin most fully revealed his heart. As he prepared
an international gathering of talented young men for gospel
ministry--and not a few for martyrdom--he poured his knowledge into
them and prayed fervently with them. Here he models what he sought
to teach: if a man would be a pastor he must know God. If he would
know God and serve man he must devote himself to prayer and the
ministry of the word." - Sinclair B Ferguson "This precious book
confirms Calvin's conviction that the Word and prayer work together
to develop genuine piety in the Christian. Calvin taught that the
Word is God's communication to us, providing us with spiritual food
and medicine for spiritual health. Prayer is our communication to
God by which we express praise and adoration, and bow in submissive
piety before Him. May God mightily use this little volume to foster
this spirit of devotion in many hearts and lives." -Dr. Joel R.

'There's a spiritual instinct in us all, and very few people do not
at some stage in their lives find themselves praying, in one form
or another. Often, it's a crisis that brings us to our knees. But
sometimes it's the sheer joy of being alive that makes us want to
find someone to thank for our good fortune.'Bishop James JonesAll
religions agree on one thing: that to be human is to pray. This new
collection of 365 meditations from BBC Radio 4's Prayer for the Day
offers insights from across the faiths into happiness, integrity
and spiritual wellbeing. The contributors give new perspectives on
the challenges of our era, providing welcome opportunities, day by

Winner of the Books for a Better Life Award Chosen as one of "The
10 Best Spiritual Books of 2006" by Spirituality and Health
magazine Rabbi Irwin Kula explores desire in spiritual life. Rather
than leading us astray, our longings are gateways to self
discovery. Our yearnings, once understood, can lead us to discover
an expansive vision of God or a wider reality. And when we embrace
even our most painful or taboo desires, we can love more deeply and
live more fully. The Biblical authors wrote about characters who,
rather than leading perfect lives, actually struggled with their
longings for success, love, sex, and happiness. Through
interpreting those stories and other spiritual traditions, as well
as exploring his own desires and those of regular people, Rabbi
Kula shows that "The more we allow ourselves to unfold, the less
likely we are to unravel. The more we dive into our desires, the
more exquisite life becomes."
Un manual practico que trata de los pasajes importantes de las
Escrituras sobre el ayuno. Tambien trata de las normas practicas
envueltas en dicho tema. El ayuno es importante. Es una ventana que
abre nuevos horizontes en el mundo invisible. Es una arma
espiritual provista por Dios para ayudarnos a "derribar
fortalezas."
We Sing We Stay Together: Shabbat Morning Service Prayers is a
super user-friendly Sing-Along prayer book for the Shabbat
(Saturday) Morning Synagogue Service with TRANSLITERATED ENGLISH
TEXT, translation and explanation of the service. Its primary
purpose is to make it beyond easy to learn the prayers when
listening and singing along to the 64 track music CD album set of
the same name; but it also stands, in its own right, as a learning
tool explaining the meaning of the words and the service. Our
Jewish prayers are beautiful love songs; full of goodness,
affection, adoration, hope, kindness and generosity. They are our
DNA, even if we do not know them, because these prayers, our
religion, have moulded the Jewish people; our way of thinking,
education, who we are, and what we represent. Judaism is all about
being good and positive for oneself, family, community, the wider
world - all out of respect and love for Hashem. It fills me with
gratitude, humility, and pride. Our heritage is an intellectual,
cultural, spiritual and religious blessing - but we need easy
access. I was never able to participate in, let alone enjoy, the
Shabbat Morning Service, but I loved those moments when the whole
community comes together and sings a few short prayers with moving
melodies. There just was not enough of it, we needed more singing,
much more! Community is all about family and friends, and we are
all friends, it is actually written in one of our prayers. Our
prayers are crying out to be sung with great happiness, clearly and
harmoniously. Communal prayers are all about belonging, sharing,
and that is only possible if we can all join in as equals; and for
that we need clearly articulated words that are easy to learn and
enjoyable to sing. I dedicate this project of melodizing the
Shabbat Morning Service prayers and writing a Sing-Along prayer
book to all who love and care for Jewish Continuity, Judaism,
Torah, and the Nation-State of the Jewish People, Israel; and so
also to all our wonderful friends, the righteous among the nations.
Remember to remember that when we sing together, we stay together.
AM ISRAEL CHAI - the people of Israel live. With love, and hope for
our children, Richard Collis
