Rebirthing Faith: Portrait of a Resilient Heart (Woman of Valor) by D.M. Griffin (1 Review)    Price verified 8 hours ago

She was just an ordinary girl living in the small village of Ramah during the time of the judges. Her people had strayed far from pure devotion to God. Religious acts of duty became the doorway through which the corruption of the priestly line of Levi had begun. With everyone doing right in their own eyes, how long before Hannah's people experienced the full wrath of God for their continued disobedience? As a woman, Hannah doubted if she could ever make a difference for God. She settled her heart on marriage and family as was the custom of her day. Yet, a dream sparked hope inside of her that one day she would be the mother of a great new leader in Israel - a man who would lead God's people back to the heart of devoted worship. When Hannah became betrothed to Elkanah, she thought her prophetic dreams would come to pass. Plagued by barrenness, tormented by her husband's wavering faith, and constantly provoked by a second wife in the household, Hannah struggled to maintain her belief that things would turn out as God had shown her. How does a woman walk the treacherous path of forgiveness, holding onto a thin thread of faith when everything, including time, seems to work against her? Would Hannah rise above her present suffering to root her faith in God and not herself? Would she resist taking matters into her own hands when everyone around seemed to be doing just that?

"Don't you ever want to run away from Christmas?" Mildred Budge's answer to Dixie was immediate and truthful. "Yes, yes, yes," Mildred said with conviction. She couldn't stop saying yes, though the very idea that a good church lady would want to run away from the occasion during the year that marked the birth of Jesus-- the reason for the season for a tried and true church lady of the South-- was almost beyond explanation. "Then, let's go. Let's go to Fountain City and find Mr. Fixit and eat sublime pies," her friend Dixie urged.

If you are looking for an uplifting story that reminds you of the reason for the season after all, you'll surely enjoy this newest short adventure of Mildred Budge and her new friend Dixie, a woman whose multiple personalities encourages readers to enjoy the dimensions of personhood that can't be labeled and which often respond to beauty and shared joy.

The Story of Han Xiangzi: The Alchemical Adventures of a Daoist Immortal (China Program Books) by Erzeng Yang (University of Washington Press) (4 Reviews)    Price verified 6 hours ago

In this seventeenth-century Chinese novel, Han Xiangzi, best known as one of the Eight Immortals, seeks and achieves immortality and then devotes himself to converting his materialistic, politically ambitious Confucian uncle -- Han Yu, a real historical figure -- to Daoism. Written in lively vernacular prose interspersed with poems and songs, the novel takes its readers across China, to the heavens, and into the underworld. Readers listen to debates among Confucians, Daoists, and Buddhists and witness trials of faith and the performance of magical feats. In the mode of the famous religious novel Journey to the West, The Story of Han Xiangzi uses colorful characters, twists of plot, witty dialogue, and action suitable for a superhero comic book to convey its religious message -- that worldly life is ephemeral and that true contentment can be found only through Daoist cultivation. This is the first translation into any Western language of Han Xiangzi quanzhuan (literally, The Complete Story of Han Xiangzi). On one level, the novel is a delightful adventure; on another, it is serious theology. Although The Story of Han Xiangzi's irreverent attitude toward the Confucian establishment prevented its acceptance by literary critics in imperial China, it has remained popular among Chinese readers for four centuries. Philip Clart's introduction outlines the Han Xiangzi story cycle, presents Yang Erzeng in his social context, assesses the literary merits and religious significance of the text, and explores the theory and practice of inner alchemy. This unabridged translation will appeal to students of Chinese literature and to general readers who enjoy international fiction, as well as to readers with an interest in Daoism.
