North to Katahdin
Are the urbanites trekking trails with cell phones, synthetic fabrics, and GPS units having remotely the same experience that Thoreau did in 1846? Pinder's interviews with these hikers create a vivid portrait of the communion with nature they seek, and of the world they are trying to escape.
The Restless Heart: Finding Our Spiritual Home in Times of Loneliness
Loneliness may be more pervasive now than at any other time in human history. Cell phones and "instant messaging" notwithstanding, our longing for meaningful connections seems to increase in indirect proportion to our accessibility. In "The Restless Heart, Ronald Rolheiser identifies different types of loneliness and discusses the dangers and opportunities they represent in our lives. Using contemporary parables from literature, film, and his own life, he shows that loneliness can be a tremendously creative and even valuable force when it is recognised, accepted, and used as a dynamic catalyst. With his trademark clarity of vision, honesty, and intelligence, Rolheiser offers a distinctly Christian approach to living an examined, involved life and presents suggestions that will free readers to discover greater meaning and fulfillment in their own lives.
