Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fairacres Publications 216 The scholarly investigations and translations of Prof. Sebastian Brock have been largely responsible for bringing Saint Isaac of Nineveh, also known as Isaac the Syrian, to public attention. Isaac was a seventh-century Syriac Christian bishop and monastic author from Beth Qatraye in the region of Qatar. He is best known for his writings on Christian asceticism.

Their simplicity and sincerity have a surprising beauty and relevance to our Christian journey.

In this book we journey with him along his personal ‘road to Emmaus’, recounted with engaging warmth and honesty.
Book Synopsis Made All of Light by : Thomas Campion
Download or read book Made All of Light written by Thomas Campion and published by SLG Press. This book was released on 2024-09-17 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Campion (1567–1620) was a composer of lute song and the author a significant body of Latin and English poetry and masques written for the Stuart court. This volume collects all of Campion’s sacred poetry in one place for the first time. Campion’s lyric style was influenced by Sir Philip Sidney, but also by the music to which it was most often set: the lines flow gracefully, with an elegant and direct communication of depth and sincerity. Campion’s faith is evident and his texts speak as vividly to us today as they did to those who copied and shared them during his lifetime and beyond.

Book Synopsis Encountering the Depths by : Mother Mary Clare SLG
Download or read book Encountering the Depths written by Mother Mary Clare SLG and published by SLG Press. This book was released on 2024-08-30 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fairacres Publications 218 This is a book about the nature and practice of prayer for the serious Christian, lay and clerical, in which the problems of the spiritual life in the modern world are presented as a challenge. Mother Mary Clare, who was one of the Anglican Church’s leading spiritual directors, takes the major contemplative themes and brings to them her unique blend of spiritual realism, vision and authority. Prayer begins and ends in the inescapable necessity of a relationship with God; the dimension of silence reveals that praying is not only an action but a still contemplation; the path of spiritual progress is to discern in the union of action and contemplation a deeper listening which leads to an apostolate of prayer renewing the action of contemplation. It is all God’s Work. In his foreword, Bishop Michael Ramsey writes: ‘I hope this little book will have many readers, as I am sure it will help them as it has helped me … Christian lives which know contemplation will be lives nearer the love of God…’

Download or read book Mixed Life written by Walter Hilton and published by SLG Press. This book was released on 2024-08-29 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fairacres Publications 136 The English mystic Walter Hilton was born c. 1340–5 and died at the Priory of St Peter at Thurgarton, Nottinghamshire in 1396. Little is known of his life, but after beginning a legal and administrative career he attempted the solitary life, but finally discovered his true vocation as an Augustinian Canon. His spiritual writings in English and Latin are ranked alongside those of the anonymous author of The Cloud of Unknowing and Julian of Norwich, and include Angels’ Song (also translated by Rosemary Dorward and published by SLG Press in 1983), commentaries on Psalm texts, and a number of letters of spiritual guidance. Mixed Life was originally intended to be read as the third part of Hilton’s best-known work, The Scale of Perfection, and is a set of instructions for a ‘worldly lord’ on balancing the spiritual and practical aspects of leading a godly life. This new edition includes the first full print publication of a diplomatic transcription of the ‘Vernon MS’ text from which this translation was made.
Book Synopsis Zeal for the Faith by : Tony Dickinson
Download or read book Zeal for the Faith written by Tony Dickinson and published by SLG Press. This book was released on 2024-09-30 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fairacres Publications 221 In recent years relations between Christians and Muslims have been reduced, in much popular discourse, to a simple, and often polarized, opposition. Historically the relationship between these two Abrahamic faiths has been much more nuanced and complex. In this book, Tony Dickinson explores some of the complexities, both in Christian-Muslim relations and within Islam, from the earliest years of Muhammad’s prophetic activity until the controversies and conflicts of the present, and suggests some possible approaches to contemporary inter-faith dialogue.

Book excerpt: Wendy Robinson (1934–2013) was a trained psychotherapist who became a member of the Russian Orthodox Church in England in 1980. To be able to combine these two vocations was, for her, to discover herself. She practised psychotherapy both with individual clients and, increasingly, with religious communities, both Catholic and Anglican, giving retreats and one-to-one counselling, and built up a strong and lasting connection with the Sisters of the Love of God in Oxford. She reflected on her dual vocation in lectures and articles, a selection of which are published in the companion volume to this book, Cosmos Crisis and Christ: Essays of Wendy Robinson, collected and edited by Andrew Louth, Fairacres Publications 211 (SLG Press, 2024)
