Many of the available resources for teaching courses on feminist
spirituality either come from the 1980s to 1990s or are written by
the same authors as those earlier texts, thus showing us a
progression of spiritual beliefs and practices of 'second-wave'
feminists. This is useful, but when addressing this topic with
university students it is also important to show the ways in which
spirituality has been rethought by 'third-wave' feminists. This
rethinking can be found in various small circulation 'zines, but
these are not always accessible to a wide audience. This anthology
addresses the experiences of third-wave feminists in the
construction and reformulation of spirituality. It examines the
experiences of young feminists and others who have been influenced
by second-wave feminist spirituality and engaged in developing and
critiquing themes of Goddess religion, queer theory, protest
movements, and popular culture.

God in the Details offers a provocative look at the breadth and
persistence of religious themes in the American consciousness. This

sacred and the commercial, and post 9/11 spirituality and religious
redemption through an analysis of vampire drama, True Blood.

Ryan Kendall is broken. He understands pain. He knows the hand of
violence and the ache of loss. He knows what it means to fail those
who need you. Being broken doesn't stop him wanting the one thing
he can't have; Finlay Tanner. Her smile is sweet and her future
bright. She's the girl he grew up with, the girl he loves, the girl
he protects from the world, and from himself. At nineteen, Ryan
leaves to join the Australian Army. After years of training he
becomes an elite SAS soldier and deploys to the Afghanistan war.
His patrol undertakes the most dangerous missions a soldier can
face. But no matter how far he runs, or how hard he fights, his
need for Finlay won't let go. Returning home after six years, one
look is all it takes to know he can't live without her. But
sometimes love isn't enough to heal what hurts. Sometimes people
like him can't be fixed, and sometimes people like Finlay deserve
more than what's left. This is a story about war and the cost of
sacrifice. Where bonds are formed, and friendships found. Where
those who are strong, fall hard. Where love is let go, heartache is
born, and heroes are made. Where one man learns that the hardest
fight of all, is the fight to save himself. This book is
recommended for 18+ due to adult language and themes. Please note:
K McCarthy is an Australian author and Australian spelling,

Sunny (Four Paws) and Buddy (Snappy Jaws) are two of the author's
family pets. Like most dogs, they enjoy hiking and swimming, and
they also enjoy chasing the animals they see in the woods and
fields where they play. Their antics are the basis for this book.
The road that leads one to their destiny is said to be
predetermined. Two people, Cathy and Johnnie begin on that same
road with love and hope, but the twists and turns of life force
them to pursue different avenues, different lives through no fault
of their own. Will destiny be their friend, or will destiny destroy
them? From their beginnings in the East End of London to the shores
of Hong Kong, against all odds, the two struggle to obtain their
goals and to rise above prejudice in the 1960's.
Evie Jamieson, a former wild child, is not only a headstrong,
smart-mouthed trouble magnet, she is also a lead singer with a
plan. That plan involves uprooting her band, including her two best
friends guitarist Henry and band manager Mac, to Sydney to kick off
their dreams of hitting the big time. Jared Valentine is the older
brother of Evie's best friend Mac and also the man determined to
make Evie his. They strike up a long distance friendship which
suits Evie because she's determined to avoid the distraction of
love, not only because it doesn't fit in with her plan, but because
twice in the past it has left her for dead. Moving to Sydney,
however, has put her directly in Jared's path and he has decided
it's the perfect opportunity to make his play. Unfortunately Jared,
co-owner in a business that 'consults' in dangerous hostage and
kidnapping situations, makes an enemy who's determined to enact
revenge. When his enemy puts Evie in his sights, Jared not only has
a fight on his hands to make her his own, but also to keep her
alive. Is accepting the love he's so desperate to give worth the
risk to both her heart, and her life? *Please Note: Kate McCarthy
