From the author of Praying for Strangers and four Southern gothic novels comes a chronicle of faith and spirituality that is personal, raw, wise, revelatory - and very funny. With a unique mix of passionate revelation and quirky humor, River Jordan takes us on a journey through her Southern childhood to her present-day life as a novelist. Her stories run the gamut from dancing disco nights and midnight desert rides to surprise visitations with the Divine. Included are comforting letters to personal friends and loved ones about faith, death, heartbreaks and their futures. Confessions of a Christian Mystic is a highly original work about an extraordinary faith that never loses touch with current culture or everyday realities. Jordan invites us to join in on her wild ride searching for the holy mysteries of God. This haunting work will leave you deeply comforted and full of hope. Hailed as "a book for our times," Confessions gently leads us closer to that Divine mystery that shapes us and gives us life.

Confessions of a Rational Mystic exposes both aspects of this transitional thinker through a multidimensional interpretation of his Pioslogion. It treats Anselm's famous proof for the existence of God as both a rational argument and an exercise in mystical theology, analyzing the logic of its reasoning while providing a phenomenological account of the vision of God that is embedded within it. Through a deconstructive reading of the cycle of prayer and proof that forms the overall structure of the text, not only is the argument returned to its place in the Proslogion as a whole, but the historic relationship that it attempts to establish between faith and reason is examined. In this way, the critical role that Anselm played in the history of philosophy is seen in a new light.

In this second edition of her profound book on confession, which theologian Hans Urs von Balthasar calls "one of her most central works", Adrienne von Speyr discusses the moral and practical aspects of this sacrament in great depth. The most complete spiritual treatise on confession ever written, the book covers conversion, scruples, contrition, spiritual direction, laxity, frequency of confession, confessions of religious and lay people, and even confessions of saints. The most intriguing element in von Speyr's understanding of confession, fully developed in this volume, is its trinitarian and christological basis. The Cross is the archetypal confession, and Christian sacramental confession is thus an imitation of Christ in the strict sense. Confession examines the enormous fruitfulness of this dogmatic basis from many perspectives, giving a wealth of suggestions that both the theological expert and the layman will find very helpful. Its practical applicability to one's own confession emerges from every page.

When Ray was six years old, his mother lay dying in a makeshift hospital on an Alaskan Island, praying with all her heart for God to watch over her sons when she's gone. A bit of a scoundrel as a kid, Ray experienced a religious awakening in 1957 when he was 18 and immediately began teaching a new way to view the Bible. To Ray, Jesus was not necessarily the only way to "know" God. This got him into trouble with church elders. Excommunicated in his 20s and raising a family from paycheck to paycheck, he ran into a strange woman who liked Ray's inclusive understanding of Christ's teachings and invited Ray to meet some like-minded friends who were part of a religion Ray had never heard of. He refused to meet them. The woman accused Ray of being a hypocrite. Ray gritted his teeth, acquiesced, and met these believers of this "odd" religion with a name he could not pronounce. This meeting, when Ray was 26, changed the fate of his life and the lives of hundreds, if not thousands of people across the United States . . . for the better. Ray was, in one sense, ordinary - a football-loving family man with a penchant for coffee and peanut butter who wound up co-owning a tiny architectural firm dedicated to building shoe stores. In another sense, Ray was mystical - seemingly without stress even though he had reason to be incredibly stressed out. He was absurdly patient and generous, a lover of truth, and a wayfarer who felt guiding by God even when he went blind. His spiritual understanding of life and how to live it led him to believe his calling was to help his fellow human beings view reality in a world-embracing way that transcended the modern boundaries of religions, countries, and peoples. Along the way, Ray uncovered a divinely inspired plan spiritually detailing how humans were destined to live - in unity and in peace. This book is a memoir dedicated to Ray Estes, now nearing 80 years of age, and his positive influence on the many friends he made along the way...

What if there was something you could do-something simple, yet so powerful-that could positively influence others and change your life in the process? Critically acclaimed author River Jordan discovered that very thing... As 2009 approached, both of River Jordan's sons were about to go off to war-one to Iraq and the other to Afghanistan-and she was planning a family reunion to see them off. All River could do was pray for her sons' safety and hope to maintain her strength, until she unexpectedly came upon the perfect New Year's resolution-one that focused on others instead of herself. She would pray for a complete stranger every single day of the year. In Praying for Strangers, Jordan tells that the discovery that she made along the journey was not simply that her prayers touched the lives of these strangers (in often astounding ways), but that the unexpected connections she made with other people would be a profound experience that would change her life forever.
