It is 2008, Florida’s housing market has tanked, and Andrea Nelson is terrified. A single parent, she’s been juggling the balls in the air for so long, somehow managing to pay all the bills—but now? With no foreseeable source of income, how will she afford her daughter’s pricey school for the developmentally challenged and fund her mother’s upkeep in the familial enclave that is falling into ruin?

Steps to Paradise
Author: John Climacus
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1365084744
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 348
Book Description
For the first time in English, we present Fra. Luis de Granada's "Libro de la Escala Espiritual", (1562) of J. Climacus' "Ladder of Divine Ascent." This work is from his initial effort of 1551. This particular work has endured more than any other ascetic wring. It remains the most influential early work regarding ascetic practices and deep spiritual growth for those who are and are not under a vowed vocation. The chain of this thought is preserved in the writings of Symeon the New Theologian, a 10th century "Climacus type figure", who likewise has a dual thread in his spirituality. In the early 20th century, L. Moore makes a comment, in his translation of "Ladder of Divine Ascent". A few centuries later, Nicholas of Cusa, makes a compelling remark in one of his later works, "On Seeing God." By the early 1500's Nil Sorsky will continue the link to Climacus and other hesychast practitioners. Lastly, the late V. Loskky has also cited this issue.
