CHURCH OF THE WILD
Our Price: $17.99
GNOSTIC GOSPELS
Our Price: $16.00
Publisher Marketing: This popular book, first published in 1908, is the amazing story of Jesus and how he attained the Christ consciousness open to all men and women. It includes a complete record of the lost eighteen years of Jesus life -- a time about which the New Testament is strangely silent. Once upon a time, humans lived in intimate relationship with nature.

Whether disillusioned by the dominant church or unfulfilled by traditional expressions of faith, many of us long for a deeper spirituality. Victoria Loorz certainly did. Coping with an unraveling vocation, identity, and planet, Loorz turned to the wanderings of spiritual leaders and the sanctuary of the natural world, eventually cofounding the Wild Church Network and Seminary of the Wild.

With an ecospiritual lens on biblical narratives and a fresh look at a community larger than our own species, Church of the Wild uncovers the wild roots of faith and helps us deepen our commitment to a suffering earth by falling in love with it--and calling it church. Through mystical encounters with wild deer, whispers from a scrubby oak tree, wordless conversation with a cougar, and more, Loorz helps us connect to a love that literally holds the world together--a love that calls us into communion with all creatures. 		Publisher Marketing: A provocative study of the gnostic gospels and the world of early Christianity as revealed through the Nag Hammadi texts.

The Kebra Nagast is a pivotal text in the Rastafarian tradition. Written in Ethiopia during the 14th century, this sacred tale tells the story of the relationship between the Biblical King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba, as well as their son Menyelek who famously brought the Arc of the Covenant to Ethiopia. A key text for Ethiopian Christians, The Kebra Nagast is also a fundamental sacred work of the Rastafarian tradition.

UNTIE THE STRONG WOMAN WHEN GOD HAD A WIFE WOMAN WITH THE ALABASTER JAR MARY MAGDALEN & THE HOLY
UNTIE THE STRONG WOMAN Q
Our Price: $22.99
WHEN GOD HAD A WIFE
Our Price: $16.00
"Call her Our Lady, La Nuestra Señora, Holy Mother-or one of her thousands of other names," says Dr. Estés. "She wears hundreds of costumes, dozens of skin tones, is patroness of deserts, mountains, stars and oceans. Thus she comes to us in billions of images, but at her center, she is the Great Immaculate Heart." With Untie the Strong Woman, Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés invites us to reconnect with "the fierce and loving Blessed Mother who is friendly, but never tame-she who flies to our aid when the road is long and our hearts are broken, ever ready to rekindle the inner fire of our creative souls."

In her first book in more than a decade, Dr. Estés illuminates Our Lady through blessings, images, and narrative, including:
  • Stories of connecting with the Blessed Mother, including "Meeting the Lady in Red," and "Untie the Strong Woman"
  • Blessed Mother's many images from around the world, including "Litany of The Mother Road: A Chant of Her Incandescent Names;" "A Man Named Mary;" and "The Marys of Mother Africa"
  • The wild side of her love, including "Massacre of the Dreamers: The Maiz Mother;" "Holy Card of Swords Through the Heart;" and "Guadalupe is a Girl Gang Leader in Heaven"
    •
    "The Blessed Mother is often 'Friend to the friendless one' and Mother to all-yet too many of us have been estranged from her for far too long." Untie the Strong Woman opens a channel to this sacred and nurturing force-"breaking through walls that have held us back from her presence, and instead, inviting us to shelter under her starry green mantle."     		Despite what most people believe, the ancient Israelites venerated several deities besides the Old Testament god Yahweh, including goddesses such as Asherah, Yahweh’s wife. The authors investigate the suppressed spiritual legacy of the Jewish goddesses and how we have been collectively craving the return of the Sacred Feminine for millennia. Margaret Starbird’s theological beliefs were profoundly shaken when she read Holy Blood, Holy Grail, a book that dared to suggest that Jesus Christ was married to Mary Magdalen and that their descendants carried on his holy bloodline in Western Europe. Shocked by such heresy, this Roman Catholic scholar set out to refute it, but instead found new and compelling evidence for the existence of the bride of Jesus--the same enigmatic woman who anointed him with precious unguent from her alabaster jar.

    In this provocative book, Starbird draws her conclusions from an extensive study of history, heraldry, symbolism, medieval art, mythology, psychology, and the Bible itself. The Woman with the Alabaster Jar is a quest for the forgotten feminine--in the hope that its return will help restore a healthy balance to planet Earth.
