In 1880, George MacDonald, the Scottish poet, novelist and preacher, in the wake of the deaths of two of his children, published A Book of Strife in the Form of the Diary of an Old Soul . This book, which unites grief and hope in hard-won faith, contains a poem for every day of the year. In the first edition of this classic collection there was a blank page opposite each page of poems. Readers were invited to write their own reflections on the "white page." MacDonald wrote: "Let your white page be ground, my print be seed, growing to golden ears, that faith and hope may feed." _._._._ Betty Aberlin, a native New Yorker of Russian-Jewish ancestry, raised in post-Holocaust orthodox atheism and nurtured in the arts, responded to MacDonald's invitation with daily poems of her own. Following the strict poetic form of The Diary of an Old Soul was an illuminating experience. In her own 7-line, 3-rhyme, 10-syllable pattern, Aberlin created a unique mixture of recurring themes and images drawing from Judaism, Christianity and her experiences as an actress and artist. Her vision is fresh and honest, revealing a keen observation of nature and human nature, from the exhilarations of faith, hope and love to the despairs of war, rejection and failure. Aberlin opens a path into spiritual reflection for the thoughtful reader to follow. _._._._ Here are a few of the accolades for The White Page Poems: _._._._ "In this labor of love, Betty Aberlin's close readings of George MacDonald's verses, and her thoughtful responses to them speak clearly of her poetic gifts and spiritual intelligence." Luci Shaw, poet and author. _._._._ "An awesome collection and collaboration." Daniel Berrigan, SJ, poet-in-residence, Fordham University. _._._._ "A fascinating new book . . . fresh and incisive." Don King, author of C.S. Lewis, Poet.

A riveting firsthand account of one man's mission to investigate and document some of the most astonishing untold phenomena of our time All across the globe, small children spontaneously speak of previous lives, beg to be taken "home," pine for mothers and husbands and mistresses from another life, and know things that there seems to be no normal way for them to know. From the moment these children can talk, they speak of people and events from the past -- not vague stories of centuries ago, but details of specific, identifiable individuals who may have died just months, weeks, or even hours before the birth of the child in question. For thirty-seven years, Dr. Ian Stevenson has traveled the world from Lebanon to suburban Virginia investigating and documenting more than two thousand of these past life memory cases. Now, his essentially unknown work is being brought to the mainstream by Tom Shroder, the first journalist to have the privilege of accompanying Dr. Stevenson in his fieldwork. Shroder follows Stevenson into the lives of children and families touched by this phenomenon, changing from skeptic to believer as he comes face-to-face with concrete evidence he cannot discount in this spellbinding and true story.

With the insight, humor, and compassion we have come to expect from her, Maeve Binchy tells a story of family, friends, patients, and staff who are part of a heart clinic in a community caught between the old and the new Ireland. Dr. Clara Casey has been offered the thankless job of establishing the underfunded clinic and agrees to take it on for a year. She has plenty on her plate already--two difficult adult daughters and the unwanted attentions of her ex-husband--but she assembles a wonderfully diverse staff devoted to helping their demanding, often difficult patients. Before long the clinic is established as an essential part of the community, and Clara must decide whether or not to leave a place where lives are saved, courage is rewarded, and humor and optimism triumph over greed and self-pity. "Heart and Soul" is Maeve Binchy at her storytelling best. "From the Hardcover edition."

He shows us how fear and pain are choices we make and how we may change this world to peace and harmony in one generation. Be a part of the change. Through this book find your life purpose, communicate with your spiritual guidance and deceased loved ones, and understand the new children of today.

I don t know how you did it, but the guilt and shame of pain is gone. I feel lighter happier and able to handle so much more in my life. I love you and will pray for you to be able to help others as you have helped me." Lisa, nurse "Jason is a living example of the spiritual model. He exudes peace, balance and non-judgment in the human form. His book is the blueprint to show the way." G.C. Neff "Jason is breaking down the old concepts of the teacher or the 'gifted one' being better than the student. He acts as a guide; instead of doing it for you, he teaches you to do it. Coming into contact with his perspective is an invitation to be empowered." M.J.C. "I have been involved with Jason Nelson s seminars throughout 2006 and helped him coordinate one of his angel seminars.... I watched these seminars enrich the lives of hundreds of people, as well as experience it myself firsthand. He helped me deal with physical, mental, and emotional issues that I would have had a much harder time with on my own. I highly recommend his book, as well as taking one of his seminars. You will be forever changed." Jodi Friedman, real estate broker & Reiki master "Jason has truly shown me what unconditional love is. He taught me how to have a direct connection with my guides, which has been the most valuable gift. Rohan has been directly guiding and teaching me on my soul s path. Participant responses from Jason s workshops have been over-whelming. If you truly want to get to your soul s purpose, then don t miss reading this book or attending a workshop. Wherever you are in your soul s journey, get ready to move forward." Leah Levkowitz, healer/channel/teacher "It saved me years of my life by putting me on path." Ellen Darger, spa owner "A beautiful validation awakening the journey to my soul." Deb, LMT "Jason s book and workshops have helped me to discover and confront issues that have been binding me, and gave me the freedom to move past them to a better life for myself." Marlaya Charleston, poet and artist "Age of the Soul is filled with channeled insights and exercises that are life enhancing, and I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to live from their soul."
