Since the beginning of human life on Earth, God has assigned guardian angels to a meaningful, universal task-to assist couples with conception, and then provide protection, guidance, and direction to the prevailing children. Herbert is a good-hearted soul who was once considered the premier guardian angel. In recent years, Herbert has become somewhat forgetful and has been placed on inactive duty. Despite the objections of Eleanor, Director of Guardian Angel Relations, a miserable Herbert is overjoyed when God awards him a challenging new assignment-to help Samantha and Peter, an infertile married couple, conceive a child. Across town, fifteen-year-old Gwen is twenty-three weeks pregnant and, until now, has refused to recognize her pregnancy. As the baby grows inside her, Gwen faces a monumental decision. Herbert finds himself thrust in the middle of a conception mishap, and must find a way to get the baby to the right home or lose his wings forever. In Faces on the Ceiling, no one ever abandons the idea of a family, and we soon discover that when chance fails, choice prevails.

The Houses of Hereford 1200-1700

By: Nigel Baker,Pat Hughes,Richard K. Morriss

The cathedral city of Hereford is one of the best-kept historical secrets of the Welsh Marches. Although its Anglo-Saxon development is well known from a series of classic excavations in the 1960s and ’70s, what is less widely known is that the city boasts an astonishingly well-preserved medieval plan and contains some of the earliest houses still in everyday use anywhere in England. Three leading authorities on the buildings of the English Midlands have joined forces combining detailed archaeological surveys, primary historical research, and topographical analysis to examine 24 of the most important buildings, from the great hall of the Bishop’s Palace of c.1190, to the first surviving brick town-house of c.1690. Fully illustrated with photographs, historic maps, and explanatory diagrams, the case-studies include canonical and mercantile hall-houses of the Middle Ages, mansions, commercial premises, and simple suburban dwellings of the early modern period. Owners and builders are identified from documentary sources wherever possible, from the Bishop of Hereford and the medieval cathedral canons, through civic office-holding merchant dynasties, to minor tradesmen otherwise known only for their brushes with the law.

Art Is a Way of Knowing

A Guide to Self-Knowledge and Spiritual Fulfillment through Creativity

By: Pat B. Allen

An expert in art therapy offers this “wonderful” guide “for anyone, artistic or not, who is interested in using art to know more about himself or herself” (Library Journal) Making art—giving form to the images that arise in our mind's eye, our dreams, and our everyday lives—is a form of spiritual practice through which knowledge of ourselves can ripen into wisdom. This book offers encouragement for everyone to explore art-making in this spirit of self-discovery—plus practical instructions on material, methods, and activities, such as ways to: • Discover a personal myth or story • Recognize patterns and themes in one's life • Identify and release painful memories • Combine journaling and image making • Practice the ancient skill of active imagination • Connect with others through sharing one's art works Interwoven with this guidance is the intimate story of the author's own journey as a student, art therapist, teacher, wife, mother, and artist—and, most of all, as a woman who discovered a profound and healing connection with her soul through making art.

Writing Alone and with Others

By: Pat Schneider

For more than a quarter of a century, Pat Schneider has helped writers find and liberate their true voices. She has taught all kinds--the award winning, the struggling, and those who have been silenced by poverty and hardship. Her innovative methods have worked in classrooms from elementary to graduate level, in jail cells and public housing projects, in convents and seminaries, in youth at-risk programs, and with groups of the terminally ill. Now, in Writing Alone and with Others, Schneider's acclaimed methods are available in a single, well-organized, and highly readable volume. The first part of the book guides the reader through the perils of the solitary writing life: fear, writer's block, and the bad habits of the internal critic. In the second section, Schneider describes the Amherst Writers and Artists workshop method, widely used across the U.S. and abroad. Chapters on fiction and poetry address matters of technique and point to further resources, while more than a hundred writing exercises offer specific ways to jumpstart the blocked and stretch the rut-stuck. Schneider's innovative teaching method will refresh the experienced writer and encourage the beginner. Her book is the essential owner's manual for the writer's voice.

The Life and Times of Thomas, Lord Coningsby

The Whig Hangman and his Victims

By: Pat Rogers

This book throws fresh light on British and Irish politics at the start of the 18th century. It tells for the first time the story of a powerful and eccentric peer, Thomas Coningsby, who played a key role in Ireland as the kings saviour at the Battle of the Boyne and as one of the top administrators of the Protestant ascendancy. It describes his tumultuous career in local and national politics in England, along with his hectic familial and private life, marked by his combative behaviour towards neighbours and tenants in Herefordshire, where he feuded with the Harley clan and the Duke of Chandos. The book describes his bitter quarrels with political rivals and shows how these were enlisted by the greatest poet of the age, Alexander Pope, to form a devastating critique of the Whig revenge against their discredited rivals. Based on extensive use of unpublished archives, including the numerous cache of letters to and from Coningsby; lawsuits; legal documents such as wills and marriage settlements; as well as newspapers, pamphlets and printed sources.

Emma Madison

Master Meddler

By: Pat McDermott Michener

Emma Madison, Master Meddler isn't merely a slice of life — it is life lived large, a saga of treachery and revenge, growth and redemption, love lost and found. Join Emma as she rescues her niece, Jasmine Holmes, and brings her back to the small town she departed nine years ago in a billowing cloud of scandal. The year is 1956. Jasmine is returning with an eight-year-old daughter in tow, sick, broke and her life in ruins. Once back in her home town of Medford, she will undertake another kind of journey. And although it may be long and arduous, love and joy await her at the end — so much of it due to her Aunt Emma, with her remarkable ability to take things gone wrong and set them once again to rights.
