John Calvin described the Psalms as "an anatomy of all the parts of the soul." The description is an apt one, says Sinclair B. Ferguson in the foreword to this volume, "since every experience, every emotion, all the heights and depths, all the joys and sorrows, all the mysteries of human life, are here." These select readings from Calvin's Commentary on the Psalms provide us with a year's worth of rewarding daily meditations. Calvin wrote as one whose own experience is mirrored in the Psalms. Here we witness his remarkable knack for seeing the real issues, particularly how Christ is the focus of all of Scripture.

This metamorphic autobiographical collection entails the haunting and raw interpretations of the author and her life. The tale of darkness breaking free from the chains that life wrapped her in from a very young age. Always connected with nature, the author chose to focus her descriptions and artistic impressions on aspects of complexities of the earth and cosmos. All works in this book reflect a time in the authors life and speak to the intricate nature of the human soul. We come in many colors and reflect and refract the world around us. This journey is one of transformation and of coming out of the darkness into the light. It is one of inspiration for those lost and afraid to step out and find peace in the world around them despite chaotic and sometimes tragic circumstances. It does not follow traditional formatting because life is not formatted. It is not scripted and is often complete pandemonium. The text is organized into 4 sections reflecting different aspects of a person’s inner growth and journey. The black is what the author was born into, it was all she knew for much of her life. The abyss was a time of great sorrow and rage that was pivotal to the transformation into the person the author has become through much life experience, tragedy, and joy. Black and white describes the nexus of change, the beginnings of what was possible and the struggle between staying in what is known and breaking out of the comfort of chaos as some of us know all to well. Change can be terrifying if we don’t have any idea what is on the other side. Illumination was the point of freedom, the existential release from the darkness that plagues us all and our ability to overcome it. All of these are almost lyrical in nature because they music in our hearts is what drives us to move forward and be the person we were destined to be. Breaking into that world is painful and disillusioning. We have to be brave enough to try.

The compelling vision of religious life and practice found in Hasidic sources has made it the most enduring and successful Jewish movement of spiritual renewal of all time. In this book, Ariel Evan Mayse grapples with one of Hasidism's most vexing questions: how did a religious movement known for its radical views about immanence, revelation, and the imperative to serve God with joy simultaneously produce strict adherence to the structures and obligations of Jewish law? Exploring the movement from its emergence in the mid-1700s until 1815, Mayse argues that the exceptionality of Hasidism lies not in whether its leaders broke or upheld rabbinic norms, but in the movement's vivid attempt to rethink the purpose of Jewish ritual and practice. Rather than focusing on the commandments as law, he turns to the methods and vocabulary of ritual studies as a more productive way to reckon with the contradictions and tensions of this religious movement as well as its remarkable intellectual vitality. Mayse examines the full range of Hasidic texts from the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, from homilies and theological treatise to hagiography, letters, and legal writings, reading them together with contemporary theories of ritual. Arguing against the notion that spiritual integrity requires unshackling oneself from tradition, Laws of the Spirit is a sweeping attempt to rethink the meaning and significance of religious practice in early Hasidism.
