OK. I have an advance copy. I cheated. All I can say is, "I heart Katherine Center." Just click here and pre-purchase your copy so you don't have to stand in line with all of the other people who will want to get their hands on this wise and funny book! Honesty, humor and great writing is an amazing combination.
I love Joan Chittister. I'm always searching for spiritual guidence on living a balanced life. I recently met and was inspired by a Benedictine monk. So, there you have it!
Three brothers raised singing tent revival songs hook up with their first cousin and make some serious old-school music with a very fresh sound. I'm totally addicted. iTunes shows their "influencers" as Tom Petty, Neil Young and The Allman Bros. I also hear The Call (my fav). Careful in the car with the kids (the tent rivival days are long gone). Thanks to Ash & Lauren for the recommendation.
I can't stop listening to this! Soulful and bluesy - absolutely awesome.
During our summer course, the students formed groups based on their interests and each group had two weeks to create and launch a blog that included components on shame resilience, social justice, and education. Fewer than 10 of the students had any blogging experience and 2/3 of the students had never even seen a blog. These wise and wonderful groups blew my mind! Some of the blogs were developed for helping professionals, others are more targeted to the public. Check them out by topic!
Heart & Hope - Terminal Illness
For an extra credit project, students created over 200 hope notes and seed bombs. They spread the love all over Houston. Here's a video of the kind and generous students from our summer class!
