Excerpt from Singing Through Life With God No greater evidence can be given of the place music has in the helping through life of an earnest people. Those who can sing constantly, with God, carry the joy of heaven with them. It is a well known fact that workmen, singing at their work, do it better and quicker, and they them selves are less tired than those who do not sing.

Excerpt from Singing Through Life With God One day I was enjoying a walk though one of the several rich resident districts of Cleveland, Ohio. It was late spring-time and every home had its own entrancing surroundings of trees, shrubs, lawns and exquisite flowers. Enchantment of all the senses was in the air. One seemed to be in fairyland. Suddenly, I turned into a less pretentious street. In a moment my eyes fell upon a hedge of bridal wreath in full bloom. The surroundings were commonplace, compared with what I had just been enjoying, yet, instinctively my heart cried out at the glorious beauty of this simple flower: How wonderfully it sings its song of praise to God. And with a force that was startling in its power and suddenness there sprang into my innermost being the idea: All Nature sings its heart out to God during its life. Why cannot man do the same? I felt he could - therefore, he should do so, and then and there the title and purpose of this book was born: Singing through Life with God.

After his martyrdom at the hands of the Gestapo in 1945, Dietrich Bonhoeffer continued his witness in the hearts of Christians around the world. His Letters and Papers from Prison became a prized testimony to Christian faith and courage, read by thousands. Now in Life Together we have Pastor Bonhoeffer's experience of Christian community. This story of a unique fellowship in an underground seminary during the Nazi years reads like one of Paul's letters. It gives practical advice on how life together in Christ can be sustained in families and groups. The role of personal prayer, worship in common, everyday work, and Christian service is treated in simple, almost biblical, words. Life Together is bread for all who are hungry for the real life of Christian fellowship.

Some hymns simply have an extra sprinkling of divine magic. The first notes thrill from the organ, and we are home. There's little wonder that we refer to the majestic sound of choirs of angels: Surely the kingdom of God is full of the sound of singing. Author Richard H. Schmidt offers a homecoming of sorts in his newest book, Sing to the Lord an Old Song. His meditations on forty classic hymns remind us of a shared faith--by generations before and with generations to come. Though the words and tunes may be entrenched in memory, Schmidt sheds new light on these hymns, inviting us to think about the texts through various lenses of scripture, faith, and personal experience. His reflections are painstakingly honest about how and when he has come up short as a follower of Christ--as well as how he each time, he finds notes of forgiveness, love, and hope in these familiar songs. Saint Augustine explained the power of song in his oft-quoted adage that those who sing pray twice. Come, sing and pray of amazing grace. Amen. Alleluia!

Since its first publication in 1941, A Testament of Devotion, by the renowned Quaker teacher Thomas Kelly, has been universally embraced as a truly enduring spiritual classic. Plainspoken and deeply inspirational, it gathers together five compelling essays that urge us to center our lives on God's presence, to find quiet and stillness within modern life, and to discover the deeply satisfying and lasting peace of the inner spiritual journey. As relevant today as it was a half-century ago, A Testament of Devotion is the ideal companion to that highest of all human arts-the lifelong conversation between God and his creatures. I have in mind something deeper than the simplification of our external programs, our absurdly crowded calendars of appointments through which so many pantingly and frantically gasp. These do become simplified in holy obedience, and the poise and peace we have been missing can really be found. But there is a deeper, an internal simplification of the whole of one's personality, stilled, tranquil, in childlike trust listening ever to Eternity's whisper, walking with a smile into the dark."
