A Daily Pilgrim Devotional
Author: G. M. T. Brosius
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1725288885
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 83
Book Description
No person simply desires to be a pilgrim. It is the pilgrimage, an ancient art of visiting a holy place, which calls to the pilgrim-- Draw nigh o'er chapels, come hither this place awaits your presence, shrines erected, majestic mysteries reveal thy heart's anchor. Oh pilgrim! Lo, fear forges thy shackles holding courage's step. The pilgrimage is long and difficult. The journey's toil wears a pilgrim's body, mind, and spirit--so much so, he or she has little time to contemplate deeply that path which carries him or her along, as a swift river carrying a lifeless oak branch tossed by the current. An aid for the pilgrim's journey, A Daily Pilgrim Devotional serves the hundreds of thousands called by the spirit to the path. Words of inspiration have been carefully chosen from ancient philosophers, statesmen, religious fathers, and other authors who have written about the pilgrimage and life as a journey. With thirty-five daily entries, the book becomes an instrument and contemplative tool. Furthermore, each daily devotion has space left for personal reflection so that a pilgrim may write his or her own sentiments at the end of each day.

Bright Lights, Prairie Dust
Author: Karen Grassle
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1647423147
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 385
Book Description
Karen Grassle, the beloved actress who played Ma on Little House on the Prairie, grew up at the edge of the Pacific Ocean in a family where love was plentiful but alcohol wreaked havoc. In this candid memoir, Grassle reveals her journey to succeed as an actress even as she struggles to overcome depression, combat her own dependence on alcohol, and find true love. With humor and hard-won wisdom, Grassle takes readers on an inspiring journey through the political turmoil on ’60s campuses, on to studies with some of the most celebrated artists at the famed London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts, and ultimately behind the curtains of Broadway stages and storied Hollywood sets. In these pages, readers meet actors and directors who have captivated us on screen and stage as they fall in love, betray and befriend, and don costumes only to reveal themselves. We know Karen Grassle best as the proud prairie woman Caroline Ingalls, with her quiet strength and devotion to family, but this memoir introduces readers to the complex, funny, rebellious, and soulful woman who, in addition to being the force behind those many strong women she played, fought passionately—as a writer, producer, and activist—on behalf of equal rights for women. Raw, emotional, and tender, Bright Lights celebrates and honors womanhood, in all its complexity.
