Hi Changeling- I have read some great ones recently..."The New Earth" by E. Tolle. I got so much out of this book...but his understanding of illness and comparing illnesses fall way short (hey, we are all on a journey and we are all in a process). Another was "Discovering Your Inner Samurai" by Susan Reid. Then I have a few that I have had for years and continue to go back to...a list:
1)Basics of Buddhism, by Pat Allwright
2)Ted Malone's Adventures in Poetry
3)Light from Many Lamps, Edited by Lillian Eichler Watson
4)The Art of Living Treasure Chest, by WilferdA. Peterson
Hope these help and encourage!!
Best

2 books I recommend for a deeper,yet simpler,life are THE JESUS STYLE by Gaye Erwin and THE PRAYER OF JABEZ by Bruce Wilkinson. No flluff, just strong biblical teaching! ENJOY!!

It is a book called "God's calling." it is a small book. it is written from a woman to her friend. taking notes as the Holy spirit fills her and tells her what to write. This book was a direct calling to me from God and I cannot find it anywhere. I know it was an old book that changed my life forever. God called me...Does anyone know of this book? I am sorry I cannot remember the author or anything as it was brought in to where I was from someone to let me just read it. God bless you all...he is calling too!

Stephen Mitchell's interpretation of the Tao Te Ching always gets me back on track when my life feels out of balance.

Eat Pray Love by Elizabeth Gilbert, hands down transforming - gonna read it again I think

Traveling Mercies is fantastic—any of Lamott's books are great.
I always go back to C.S. Lewis' "The Four Loves." A great reminder of how our hearts are called to love, and how we can rightly order love to put ourselves in line with God's will.

_When Things Fall Apart_ by Pema Chodron. Close second: _Traveling Mercies_ by Anne Lammott. Both are excellent, accessible, and very honest.
