  Go In Peace

  $19.95

  Helps develop the pastoral skills needed for hearing confessions

  Authors have extensive experience as spiritual directors, quiet day and retreat leaders, and Episcopal parish priests

  Although the sacramental Rite of Reconciliation is included in many Anglican prayer books, nothing has been written expressly for Anglicans since the 1980s that focuses on the pastoral skills required for this ministry. This book combines and passes on the teaching, coaching, skill development, and accumulated pastoral wisdom that has not been widely accessible or well integrated into clergy training.

  Realistic transcripts and “verbatims” of sample confessions and counseling sessions involving a wide range of people makes this a unique ministry resource for most seminaries and theological colleges, plus clergy in general – including Lutheran pastors who use the rite of “Individual Confession and Absolution” in the Lutheran Book of Worship.

  Love Set Free

  $14.95

  Lenten devotional by celebrated author, well known in the United States and Great Britain

  When is love not mixed up with something else? Love and the desire to possess, love and the need to control, love and the need to be needed, love and the lust to absorb, love and condescension, love and narcissism. In this short book of meditations on the Passion according to Saint John. Martin L. Smith shows how, in the Christian mystery, love itself must be crucified and die to be reborn as the grace of communion…as love set free.

  Originally published in 1998, Love Set Free has strong recognition in Episcopal/Anglican circles as a series of meditations designed for use as lectio and suitable for Lent or Holy Week.
