Description:These 150 meditations are paraphrases of our common human experience and therefore a way of uniting our divisive world. We find three voices providing food for our journey. The Mortal voice speaks of loss, rejection, honesty, faithfulness, integrity, discovery, joy, and Gods continuing presence in it all. The Mediator voice is at times teacher, then mentor, and often narrator. In a very inspiring way, the voice of God is a feminine voice, Mother (El Shaddai, the Hebrew breasted God; womb of our being). Take one meditation a day, in a quiet place, if possible. Chew and savor as nourishment for your mind and soul.Endorsements:Rev. Martlings language is brief, beautiful, and, on occasion, brilliant. Language varies from conversational (all the money in the world) to majestic (Holy and powerful is She!). Sin and the wicked become more concrete words, greed and gossipers. Verbs such as flared and fizzle, metaphors such as Divine Lover, great tsunami, and over my head in guilt, and personification such as sinfulness whispers stand out. Here Hebrew poetry worth writing becomes English prose worth reading.--Ron DorrProfessor of Rhetoric and HumanitiesJames Madison CollegeMichigan State UniversityA fresh, creative, imaginative and compelling insight into spirituality. Voices from the Heart of Gods Inspired Word speaks with integrity and inclusivity in the midst of diversity. The three Voices, called Mother, Mortal, and Mediator, speak of anticipation, wonderment, and authenticity. This is a potent wrestling with powers; molding and shaping our minds, hearts, and souls--the real deal.--Herman HallerInterim Specialist of Appreciative Inquiry, Church Planning, Conflict MediationUnited Church of ChristAbout the Contributor(s):Allan Martling, MDiv, is a member of the Network of Biblical Storytellers, International and wrote the words to Song of the Promise, a hymn for congregational singing and choral anthem.
