"We read each name of the 15,613 children who had been killed in Gaza. We began at 10 a.m., and by 3 p.m. we hadn't even reached the five-year-olds. What does it mean to be part of a world that allows this? Each child was a beacon—a glowing light that was loved." In Don't Look Away, award-winning Canadian journalist Jorah Kai confronts head-on one of the most devastating humanitarian crises of our time. What began as a personal awakening—sparked by his granddaughter Naomi's birth and the unbearable images of children dying under siege—becomes a searing meditation on conscience, ...

What daily worries should we learn to treat as unimportant? How do we become more accepting of ourselves and of those around us?

FAIRACRES PUBLICATIONS 88 In the early days of World War II, a Russian exile in London was asked to talk to Anglican theological students about suffering; this booklet is the text of that talk. Underlying all that Iulia de Beausobre had to say is the assumption that ’something can be made of suffering’, as Patrick Thompson wrote in his Foreword to the original edition. She did not speak from hearsay, having shared personally in the mental and physical suffering of the Russian people in the first half of the twentieth century. She had already described something of that experience in The...

We should be very careful, when trying to scrutinize our cosmos. Who knows, if we succeed, if we have a major breakthrough, we might just blow it all.

He researched classical authors, taking copious notes, and seeking to draw conclusions of universal value. His research revolved around a single goal, namely, find recipes for happiness. This book presents Montaigne's life and works, emphasising the ...
