Divine Audacity
Rev. Linda Martella-Whitsett
Her new book makes the audacious claim that each of us can be “the light of the world” Jesus instructed his followers to be. Martella-Whitsett offers a path for living a deep and authentic life outside of the strictures of traditional religious categories. A refreshing approach, in essence, on how to be spiritual without being religious. We need to jettison the idea of a God who is out there and above us. God is not a super-human who gives and takes, punishes and rewards. God does not require human suffering and repentance. Read more... |

The Perfect Metabolism Plan
Sara Vance
We all know the stats: more of us are obese than ever before. We have a diet and weight loss industry that rakes in billions per year, and yet almost everyone who loses weight puts it back on and then some. This yo-yo dieting is not just frustrating to the dieter, it's extremely detrimental to the heart, joints, and bones—worse, some research suggests, than remaining fat. This book's message is that an inability to lose weight or keep it off has never been about a failure of will, it's about a broken metabolism. Read more... |

The Flame in the Cauldron
Orion Foxwood, Foreword by Raven Grimassi
“One of the most important voices in witchcraft.” —Margot Adler
Few words entice and incite like the word witchery. Thousands of self-identified witches, pagans, and magical practitioners embrace the word, but seldom go beyond the practice of the well-accepted and learned forms of "traditional" witchcraft to explore the path of old-witchery. Orion Foxwood invites readers to walk on the path of old-style witchery, a nature-based practice that is as old as the swamps and as wild as the woods. Read more... |
