The Practicing the Way edition with an introduction by John Mark Comer In our digitally distracted, fragmented, and hurried culture, many of us are simply too busy and exhausted to have a meaningful life with God. Practices that slow us down to attune to the peace and presence of Jesus are essential for our time. And few practices are more important than immersing ourselves in Scripture. As apprentices of Jesus, our aim isn’t just to read Scripture or to know Scripture or even to believe Scripture. Rather, it is to be like Jesus’ disciple Mary, who “sat at Jesus' feet, listening to all he said.” It’s to be with Jesus, and to be formed to be like him one page at a time. The NIV Lectio Bible was created with that end in mind: to give those walking in the Way of Jesus a way of listening to God on the pages of Scripture. This Lectio Bible is a companion to the Scripture Practice from John Mark Comer and Practicing the Way, a nonprofit that creates resources to help churches apprentice in the Way of Jesus. Learn more at practicingtheway.org/resources. Featuring an introduction by John Mark, the NIV Lectio Bible is intentionally designed to be as distraction-free as possible. Beautifully designed, single column, with no chapter or verse numbers or subheadings to interrupt your reading, this Bible allows you to fully immerse yourself into a seamless experience with Scripture as you invite Jesus to shape the architecture of your heart. Features Full text of the accurate, readable, and clear New International Version (NIV), the most widely read modern-English Bible translation, trusted for its combination of accuracy, readability, and beauty Chapter and verse numbers removed to allow for seamless, distraction-free reading Introduction by John Mark Comer, founder of Practicing the Way Complements the Scripture Practice, one of nine core spiritual disciplines to help integrate the habits of Jesus into your daily life, from Practicing the Way (practicingtheway.org)

An epic tale of freedom and slavery, love and war, and the potential futures of humankind tells of a twenty-first century California clan caught between two clashing worlds, one based on tolerance, the other on repression. Declaration of the Four Sacred Things The earth is a living, conscious being. In company with cultures of many different times and places, we name these things as sacred: air, fire, water, and earth. Whether we see them as the breath, energy, blood, and body of the Mother, or as the blessed gifts of a Creator, or as symbols of the interconnected systems that sustain life, we know that nothing can live without them. To call these things sacred is to say that they have a value beyond their usefulness for human ends, that they themselves became the standards by which our acts, our economics, our laws, and our purposes must be judged. no one has the right to appropriate them or profit from them at the expense of others. Any government that fails to protect them forfeits its legitimacy. All people, all living things, are part of the earth life, and so are sacred. No one of us stands higher or lower than any other. Only justice can assure balance: only ecological balance can sustain freedom. Only in freedom can that fifth sacred thing we call spirit flourish in its full diversity. To honor the sacred is to create conditions in which nourishment, sustenance, habitat, knowledge, freedom, and beauty can thrive. To honor the sacred is to make love possible. To this we dedicate our curiosity, our will, our courage, our silences, and our voices. To this we dedicate our lives. Praise for The Fifth Sacred Thing “This is wisdom wrapped in drama.”—Tom Hayden, California state senator “Starhawk makes the jump to fiction quite smoothly with this memorable first novel.”—Locus “Totally captivating . . . a vision of the paradigm shift that is essential for our very survival as a species on this planet.”—Elinor Gadon, author of The Once and Future Goddess “This strong debut fits well against feminist futuristic, utopic, and dystopic works by the likes of Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Ursula LeGuin, and Margaret Atwood.”—Library Journal

The Reformation did not happen instantaneously; it was something God patiently arranged over a number of years. As you read this book, you will learn how the Lord used some people to plant the seeds of church reform long before October 31, 1517, when Martin Luther published his ninety-five theses. Luther's story is well-known; we trust you will find it interesting and instructive to read about him and about forty others (John Knox, Peter Martyr Vermigli, Zacharias Ursinus, Willem Teellinck, etc.) who contributed to the Reformation - some well known and others not so - most of whom are Reformation heroes.To provide a more full picture of the many sided Reformation, chapters are also included on the Anabaptist and Counter Reformation movements. The book concludes with a brief summary of the influence of the Reformation in different areas of life.
