Nuggets of Gold: Reflections On Right Relationship With God
""Finally! A guide in laymen's terms that will guide us in a closer walk with our great God!"" Rita Snow - Licensed Massage Therapist - Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) ""This is a very thorough, yet very simple look at the basic tenets of Christianity. Denise and Joe have done a great job of making it concise, easily understood, and in a progression that builds from one chapter to the next. I can envision its use by individuals and/or small groups that want to gain a fresh and renewed sense of what it means to be a Jesus-follower." Pastor Mike and Diane Lehman-United Methodist Church "Wow! These eighteen nuggets are truly theological jewels to be cherished! Learning what encompasses being a Christian is so rewarding. As a strong proponent of reflective practice and dialogue as resourceful learning tools, I cannot wait to get my final copy of the book so I can delve deeper into this inspired theological journey!" Ella Dubose -Administrative Assistant-Baptist Church

An entertaining tour of Old English words for animals, from the author of The Wordhord: Daily Life in Old English Many of the animals we encounter in everyday life, from pets and farm animals to the wild creatures of field and forest, have remained the same since medieval times. But the words used to name and describe them have often changed beyond recognition, starting with the Old English word for “animal” itself, deor (pronounced DAY-or). In The Deorhord, Hana Videen presents a glittering Old English bestiary of animals real and imaginary, big and small, ordinary and extraordinary—the good, the bad, and the downright baffling. From gange-wæfran or walker-weavers (spiders) and hasu-padan or grey-cloaked ones (eagles) to heafdu swelce mona or moon-heads (historians still don’t know!), The Deorhord introduces a world both familiar and strange: where ants could be monsters and panthers could be your friends, where dog-headed men were as real as elephants, and where whales were as sneaky as wolves. The curious stories behind these words provide vivid insights into the language, literature, and lives of those who spoke Old English—the language of Beowulf—more than a thousand years ago. A delightful journey through the weird and wonderful world of Old English, The Deorhord is a magical menagerie of new creatures and new words for the modern englisc reader to discover.

This beautifully produced book gives us insight into the history of Sacred Beasts and the origin of their symbolic power. It also gives us a means to make these symbols relevant to our daily life, by amplifying their meaning in poems stories quotations and comments.If we had lived a long time ago, when life was simpler, we would have understood our place in the universe by relating it to the natural world. Earth and sky would have embodied different aspects of divine energy and would have played a big part in our vision. For instance a tree may have represented a blessed haven, without ceasing to be a tree. In the words of three scholars: In the symbol, the particular represents the general, not as a dream, not as a shadow, but as a living and momentary revelation of the inscrutable. Goethe. The true basis of symbolism is the correspondence linking together all orders of reality, binding one to the other,extending from the natural order to the supernatural order. Rene Guenon Symbols are the synthesizing expression of a marvellous science, now forgotten by men. Marc Saunier. The aim of this book is to bring back that understanding to the reader. ,
