Living a Narrative Life is an exploration of our vault of stories assembled along the arc of life."All of life is a story," author Keith Herron writes. Our stories are sources of self-understanding, and if we draw guidance from those stories, each has something valuable to offer. Living a Narrative Life is an exploration of our vault of stories assembled along the arc of life. As Herron explains, "This is the richness of life: to know your own stories, to value and understand them, and to share them with others. In doing so, we are all enriched."By making sense of our stories, by mining them for their shades of meaning, and by sharing them in community with others, we deepen our understanding not only of ourselves but also of our place in our families and world.Keith Herron lives in St. Louis, where he teaches and writes at the intersection of spirituality and psychology. He has degrees in business, religion, education, and a doctorate in pastoral counseling and psychotherapy. He has served as a campus minister and as a pastor in the local church, where seeking the right questions is at least as important as finding the right answers. He and his wife Wanda have two adult children and one granddaughter.Praise for "Living a Narrative LifeLiving a Narrative Life is a deeply thoughtful book written to facilitate meaningful conversations about the timeline of our lives individually, generationally, and within community. It's an important read with clear directives for personal reflection and projection. Considering the stories of our lives in the ways Herron suggests will result in fresh appreciation of one's life story and new gratitude for why it matters. Get a group. Read this book." -Colleen Walker Burroughs, Vice President of PASSPORT and Founder of Watering Malawi"To cite but one of the many reasons for you to dive right into what Keith Herron has written, he takes you on a journey of remembrance of persons, events, and pathways that compose the narrative arc of your life, just as he does with his own, so that you may glance anew upon what makes for those deep and sacred meanings of your story. In the process Keith shows you how to create a rich experience of mutual discovery by sharing life-stories in a community of trust with others." -Charles Davidson, Author of Bone Dead and Rising: Vincent van Gogh and the Self Before God"Living a Narrative Life is a carefully crafted, highly accessible, and remarkably useful guide to the powerful role of stories in shaping, understanding, and transforming the meaning of our one-and-only lives. Herron skillfully interweaves significant life cycle and narrative scholarship in ways that instruct, inspire and guide the reader to deeper understandings of his or her own story. This book is a critical reminder of the practical importance of recent research on memory, carefully articulating the ways we construct and rewrite our own life stories over time." -David A. Harper, Professor Emeritus of Pastoral Theology and Counseling, Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary
Being a Disciple Community: Loving God and Neighbor uses the teachings of Luke 10:25-42-"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself," the parable of the Good Samaritan, and the story of Jesus at the home of Mary and Martha-as a pattern for the life of the church community. In conversation with the Good Samaritan and Mary, eight "loving God and neighbor" practices of the church are explored: community, worship, teaching, prayer, missions, witness, care, and leadership.Keith Stillwell received his master of divinity from The Southern Baptist Seminary in Louisville in 1988 and his doctor of ministry from the Baptist Theological Seminary at Richmond, Virginia, in 2000. He is the Together for Hope regional vice president for Appalachia (hope.cbf.net/appalachia). Previously Keith served for thirty years on church staff as an associate pastor focused on spiritual formation and missions.
In Towards a Productive Aesthetics: Contemporary and Historical Interventions in Blake and Brecht, Keith O'Regan mobilises a constellative approach to compare the political-aesthetic strategies of William Blake (1757-1827) and Bertolt Brecht (1898-1956). O'Regan traces two similar trajectories in each author's work: an exploration of how capitalist domination defines conjunctures, and an investigation of how historical figures, themes, and terrains illustrate past failures or losses that can be cleaved open for radical possibilities in the present. Brecht and Blake posit an "oppositional aesthetics of the now" that articulates a theory of experience under capitalism, while counter-posing an oppositional form of existence.
When a Lobster Whistles showcases idioms from around the world that describe a time when something will never happen. In English, some say, "when pigs fly," while other languages express the idea with fish climbing trees, hairy frogs, or dancing cows. This book frames the expressions around a love that will never end.Educators will appreciate the discussion of idioms and adynation (or hyperbole), the pronunciation guide, and the visual survey of countries and culture. Parents and kids alike will enjoy the humorous and exquisite illustrations. ESL students, and those who see their language represented, will relish a book that celebrates both the ideas that we all share, and the different ways that we express them.
A collection of strange tales for those who like horror, the supernatural, and science fiction. These six short stories explore some classic themes in contemporary settings. All have a dark vibe which creates the overall tone of the collection.The book opens with 'The Sable Lane Catering Company' which puts blood, gore, and terror immediately on the menu with a snapshot of a serial killer serving up something special for his sadistic clientele.Next up is a pure 80s horror homage, with 'John: Carpenter' giving a direct nod to the movie director's catalogue of work.'Skullcherry Orchard' sees a paranormal investigation take a turn for the worst in rural North West England. It's a traditional ghost story given a contemporary flavour.Story number four is rooted in the occult practices of the Nazi regime circa WWII and proves a terrifying and tragic turn of events for those who want to know just 'What's In The Box'No book of dark tales could be complete without a reworking of the time-honoured vampire saga, and 'Mother Rain and Father Wolf' does just that. Presented as a warning to those who would meddle in the truth which lies behind a mythology, it chronicles age-old revenge on the Church.Lastly, 'Floor 9' is a sci-fi piece which is quite simply designed to mess with your head. It has a split narrative and is a tad on the trippy side, and hopefully just good fun.If you purchase and enjoy this book of shorts, then please consider my full-length novels: The Jesus Man & Nexilexicon, both available in ebook, audio, and paperback via Amazon. Thank you KAB

It has often been said that the introductions to the books of my translation of Dzogchen texts stand alone as explanatory teaching upon Dzogchen itself. So here they are as chapters in a book which may be considered at best congealed pointing out instruction and at worst explanations of Dzogchen theory. Many people, rightfully attached to the marvelous English language, have a natural aversion to translation, crabbed or stylish, and prefer potted versions of Tibetan texts which provide a short-cut to the essence of the Dzogchen matter. I say 'congealed' pointing out instruction because in the same way that the conception and aspiration differs from the act itself, conceptualized Dzogchen only gives a tangential glimpse of buddha-enlightenment, an ideal experience of the world, and tends to taste like reheated porridge. But I trust that these essays will clear away a lot of false notions about Dzogchen, the principal erroneous notion being that Dzogchen can be attained by hard work. At best these essays may define Dzogchen as an experience of immediacy and provide koans that can induce a direct understanding. Anyway, at their worst, they may be informative, providing a guide to the texts that they once introduced. If they inspire people to realization of Dzogchen they will have performed a useful function and if they induce readers to plunge into the translations of the original Tibetan texts and thereby enter the Dzogchen stream that also may prove auspicious. Keith Dowman translates Dzogchen from the Tibetan and provides pointing-out indications of the nature of mind.
Want to know more about the likely impact of a No Deal BREXIT? Voted to Remain or Leave? Either way this book is for you. Largely focusing on the catastrophic Impact of a No Deal BREXIT the book looks at the 2016 referendum and the dramatic vote to leave the EU. An accessible and succinct account, it tries to get to the root of why people voted to Leave, looking at the motivations which drove various groups of Leave voters and why many of those Leave voters should consider those motivations again in 2019 as the government now drives us unrelentingly towards the most devastating form of BREXIT with No Deal.It touches on the puppet masters who are set to financially gain from Brexit (many having done so already), generational voting divergence, the traditional Eurosceptics, those protesting against years of austerity and those who were simply taken in by the many claims made by the Leave campaign which have been debunked in the three years since the referendum. The book moves on to look at how a potential no deal or hard Brexit will impact on various aspects of society and aims to inform those with limited exposure to Brexit. We look at Ireland, the NHS, the impact Brexit will have on farming, science, research and our ability to import the goods we need and export the goods we sell. We look at the root of the Brexit issue, our duplicitous politicians and we move on to the economy as a whole whilst discussing the impact Brexit will have on business. Aimed at those who want to learn more about the current BREXIT situation, the events that led to it and future repercussions, without the political jargon. The author, having taken the time (so you thankfully don't have to) to dig into the individual aspects of how a no deal or hard Brexit will impact society, then moves on to summarise each of those areas in bite sized chunks to help inform the reader on just how significant this national decision is within all parts of our society. A must read for those who feel strongly on the subject, remainer's and leavers alike, this book also has crossover appeal to those who have until now remained either consciously or passively unaware of what lies ahead. A quick and easy read this really should have a place on every book shelf.
