Book excerpt: Whether it is an ocean view, a mountain range, glorious music, or tender occasions with family, we often experience moments that touch us deeply and bring us to wonder and worship. These encounters are often unforgettable, and some are profoundly life-changing. In Four Degrees of Wonder, author and life coach Kath Wells shares many of her stories and reflections on moments of wonder she has experienced through creation, Scripture, prayer, music and insightful writings. This exploration began after experiencing three profound occasions of wonder over one Christmas time. Kath began to wonder about wonder and found her nights awash with tears as she recalled the Lords interventions and life-changing words to her over many years. She shaped these into chapters on his acceptance, receiving his love, being surprised by the Spirit, wide-eyed wonder, miracles of provision, and many more. Kath includes moving stories from her friends and other authors, both historical and contemporary. You will be inspired and enlarged as you savor these stories and the insights from Scripture she shares. Kath encourages readers to learn to be open to being ambushed by his love and wisdom. Our confidence and openness to him will grow as we do this. Helpful questions are included at the end of each chapter for personal reflection and prayer or they can be used for engaging group discussion.
Download or read book Seasons of Storm and Wonder written by Jim Crumley and published by Saraband. This book was released on 2022-09-08 with total page 555 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Jim Crumley, the “pre-eminent Scottish nature-writer” (Guardian), this landmark volume documents the extraordinary natural life of the Scottish Highlands and bears witness to the toll climate chaos is taking on its wildlife, habitats, and biodiversity—laying bare what is at stake for future generations. In this landmark volume, Jim Crumley brings together a sweeping five-year quest to document the seasons and how he has seen them change. It explores the damage to the Earth’s natural rhythms, but also relishes the enduring beauty and wonder of nature itself. Drawing on his studies of each season over more than thirty years and reworking the volumes in his best-selling Seasons quartet, Crumley has created this unique account of our natural world today. After a lifetime of immersing himself in the landscapes of Scotland and a handful of other northern countries, Crumley has amassed a body of knowledge and insight and a bank of memorable imagery. Combining lyrical prose and passionate eloquence, he lays bare the impact of an increasingly chaotic climate and urges us all towards a more daring conservation vision that embraces everything from the mountain treeline to a second spring for the wolf.

Book excerpt: A widowed FBI agent grows suspicious of her son’s new school in this thriller by the New York Times bestselling author of The Marriage Pact. Lina is on leave from her job in New York at the FBI in order to clean out her father’s home in Silicon Valley. As though letting go of her father isn’t hard enough, Lina has also recently lost her husband in a freak traffic accident. Still reeling, she and her teenage son Rory must make their way through this strange new town and the high school around which it all seems to revolve. Rory soon starts coming home with reports of the upcoming “Wonder Test,” a general aptitude assessment that appears increasingly inane, and Lina is shaken out of her grief by a sense that something is amiss in Hillsborough. When she discovers that a student disappeared last year and was found weeks later walking on a beach, shaved and traumatized, Lina can’t help but be sucked into an impromptu investigation. Another kidnapping hits closer to home and reveals a sinister link between the Wonder Test and the rampant wealth of Silicon Valley’s elite. A searing view of a culture that puts the wellbeing of children at risk for advancement and prestige, and a captivating story of the lengths a mother will go for her son, this is The Wonder Test. Praise for The Marriage Pact “A fun, can’t-stop-eating-the-potato-chips kind of premise.” —The New York Times “A smart, searing and frightening look at modern love.” —Today “A high-concept, fast-moving thriller . . . a gripping and intriguing read.” —Sunday Mirror
