Sacred Journey : The Ancient Practices
$18.99
Have Christians rejected pilgrimage?
The Israelites knew it. David knew it. The writer of Hebrews knew it. John Bunyan knew it. “Blessed are those whose strength is in You. They have set their hearts on pilgrimage.” (Psalm 84:5) We are strangers and pilgrims here. We’re passing through this world on a sacred journey to somewhere else. Charles Foster explores the approaching of each day as a pilgrimage-a chance to move one step closer to our ultimate goal and to even now experience tastes of that goal through prayerful awareness, study, and meditation.
Culling from his many journeys across the globe, Foster exhibits the very definition of pilgrimage: a journey to the most holy locations of our faith. This is at once both internal and external, and the author shows us how the two intersect.
A best-selling author and barrister in Oxford, Foster has spent much of his life testing the limits of human and spiritual endurance.
A volume in the eight book classic series, The Ancient Practices, with a foreword by Phyllis Tickle, General Editor.

Abolition Of Man
$17.99Add to cartIn this graceful work, C. S. Lewis reflects on society and nature and the challenges of how best to educate our children. He eloquently argues that we need as a society to underpin reading and writing with lessons on morality and in the process both educate and re-educate ourselves. In the words of Walter Hooper, “If someone were to come to me and say that, with the exception of the Bible, everyone on earth was going to be required to read one and the same book, and then ask what it should be, I would with no hesitation say The Abolition of Man. It is the most perfectly reasoned defense of Natural Law (Morality) I have ever seen, or believe to exist. If any book is able to save us from future excesses of folly and evil, it is this book.” This beautiful paperback edition is sure to attract new readers to this classic book.
