The Other Side of Change: Who We Become When Life Makes Other Plans
by Maya Shankar
When a big change happens to us, it can lead to profound change within us. The unique stresses and demands of being thrust into a new reality can lead us to uncover new abilities, perspectives, and values, transforming us in extraordinary ways. What if we saw moments of upheaval as an opportunity to reimagine who we can be, rather than as something to just endure? What potential could we unlock within ourselves? Whether you're processing a past change, grappling with a present one, or bracing for a future one, this book is a wise and thought-provoking companion to help you discover who you can become on the other side of change.

Undercover Kindness: Saying Yes to Love, No to Fear, and Embracing the Life-Changing Power of Ordinary Generosity
by Jimmy Darts
One spark of love can change everything. Jimmy Darts is convinced that the most fun we can have is to spread joy and kindness with no inhibition. He travels to thrift shops, laundromats, street corners, and grocery stores, looking for good Samaritans willing to help a down-on-his-luck stranger--and rewarding them extravagantly when they say yes. Most of these people have been paying it forward their whole life, Darts writes, but no one's noticed. This is their moment. God notices. And I want to let them know. Jimmy shows that living by faith isn't just powerful--it's wildly fun. With a mix of unforgettable stories, thoughtful reflections, and revelations that go beyond the vignettes shown in his videos, this book will help readers reignite their faith, rekindle their hope in humanity, and discover that a life of generosity can be fun, silly, unexpected, and poignant all at once.

Discovering the Spiritual Wisdom of Trees
by Beth Norcross
Trees have much to offer as soul friends, and their millennia of growth and loss provide deep wisdom, if we know how to pay attention. . Drawing on extensive experience in both forest ecology and spirituality, Norcross and Rampy invite us into a deep mutual relationship with trees, whose wisdom provides comfort, resilience, guidance, and hope. Pulling from the Center for Spirituality in Nature organization's coursework, Norcross and Rampy offer us guidance and practices based on their experiences leading walks, retreats, and pilgrimages for over two decades. When we learn the ecology of the forest and how to be present in nature, our eyes are opened to the awe and wonder of our world, deepening our sense of sacred oneness.
