The Unfinished Man
Author: Jim Wayne

ISBN: 9780996012003

Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
On a personal, psychological level, "unfinished business" often refers to disturbing events or feelings that have not been fully examined. On a corporate or organizational level, "unfinished business" can refer to obligations and expectations left unfulfilled. In Jim Wayne's novel The Unfinished Man, the scholarly and unsociable Father Justin Zapp needs to examine the psychic wounds incurred in his youth when a priest sexually exploited him. Though Father Zapp has positioned himself within the church in a situation that allows him brilliantly to pursue scholarly work, his capacity for human interaction is severely limited. When news comes to Father Zapp of current sexual abuse within his diocese, he is challenged to become a strong shepherd protecting his innocent flock from predation. Can his faith survive the finding that the Catholic Church itself, the largest organization in the world, has commonly covered up sexual abuse by priests instead of working to eliminate it? Can one man make a difference? Can one priest find the courage to return to ground zero in his own psyche, acknowledge the wreckage, and slowly rebuild a new self with enough courage and stamina to combat sexual abuse by priests? Set in the 1950s and '60s, the landscape of The Unfinished Man ranges from rural Indiana to the Vatican. Other reform issues within the Church, such as the Church's position vis-a-vis Jews, also come to the fore. Can a larger, more just, and humane spirituality emerge through new leadership? While Jim Wayne's novel unflinchingly presents the existence of evil, it succeeds equally in creating the presence of strength and goodness. This gripping novel also raises questions for any reader about his or her own private or public unfinished self.

Unfinished Business
Author: Lee Kravitz
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1608192881
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 219
Book Description
After losing his job, Lee Kravitz, a workaholic in his midfifties, took stock of his life and realized just how disconnected he had become from the people who mattered most to him. He committed an entire year to reconnecting with them and making amends. Kravitz takes readers on ten transformational journeys, among them repaying a thirty-year-old debt, making a long-overdue condolence call, finding an abandoned relative, and fulfilling a forgotten promise. Along the way, we meet a cast of wonderful characters and travel the globe-to a refugee camp in Kenya, a monastery in California, the desert of southern Iran, a Little League game in upstate New York, and a bar in Kravitz's native Cleveland. In each instance, the act of reaching out opens new paths for both personal and spiritual growth. All of us have unfinished business-the things we should have done but just let slip. Kravitz's story reveals that the things we've avoided are exactly those that have the power to transform, enrich, enlarge, and even complete us. The lesson of the book is one applicable to us all: Be mindful of what is most important, and act on it. The rewards will be immediate and lasting.
