English | 2021 | ISBN: 0385693710, 0385693737 | EPUB | pages: 240 | 1.5 mb
From the author of the classic The Danger Tree comes a powerful new memoir about a father's love for his dying son-a heart-wrenching but ultimately life-affirming book about fatherhood and identity, love and grief, memory and healing.When the worst that can happen, happens, the only useful lesson is the knowledge that it can. That's the a world can actually end, time can actually run out, sadness can prevail. But I didn't know that then, of course. Or, if I knew it, I didn't really believe it.In David Macfarlane's living room, there hangs a life-size portrait of himself. The portrait, by esteemed Canadian painter John Hartman, has become a portal for when he stares into his own eyes, and into the painting's background, an aerial view of his childhood house and hometown of Hamilton, he is transported. The painting evokes vivid memories of what was, what is no more and what will never be. It brings David back to his happy, privileged youth-its depiction of his parents' old swimming pool surrounded by dazzlingly bright light reminds him of how his future felt during those days, when the world seemed full of possibilities. His son Blake's future should feel just as bright. He's young. He's fit. He isn't a smoker. And he really, really wants to create, to live. And yet he's confined to a bed in a bright, white room-as bright as the air surrounding the swimming pool, and yet so different. As Blake undergoes treatment for an aggressive cancer, his father reckons with his past and the future his son may never have.In achingly beautiful prose, and with profound insight into how we love and grieve and remember, Macfarlane mourns the passing of time as a man in the autumn of his life and as a father who is losing his son. Likeness is a book about fathers and sons that demonstrates the power of memory to transform the tragic into the precious and profound.

Free Download Christopher A. Hall, "Worshiping with the Church Fathers"
English | 2009 | pages: 282 | ISBN: 083083866X | PDF | 1,5 mb
Christopher Hall invites us to accompany the fathers as they enter the sanctuary for worship and the chapel for prayer. He also takes us to the wilderness, where we learn from the early monastics as they draw close to God in their solitary discipline. The focus of this book is not liturgy but more broadly worship in its corporate and individual dimensions. We enter into the patristic understanding of baptism and the Eucharist. And we come under the instruction and discipline of great spiritual teachers of prayer. In two previous books, Reading Scripture with the Church Fathers and Learning Theology with the Church Fathers, Christopher Hall has ushered us alongside the church fathers as they study the Scriptures and plumb the depths of theology. In this survey of the spiritual life of worship he informs and challenges Christians in faithful living today. Hall weaves his own experiences into his observations of the fathers' practices and teachings and so helps us close the gap of the centuries. Readers will enjoy a rich and rare schooling in developing their spiritual life.

Author: Alexander Waugh
Narrator: Dennis Kleinman
If there is a literary gene, then the Waugh family most certainly has it-and it clearly seems to be passed down from father to son. The first of the literary Waughs was Arthur, who, when he won the Newdigate Prize for poetry at Oxford in 1888, broke with the family tradition of medicine. He went on to become a distinguished publisher and an immensely influential book columnist. He fathered two sons, Alec and Evelyn, both of whom were to become novelists of note (and whom Arthur, somewhat uneasily, would himself publish); both of whom were to rebel in their own ways against his bedrock Victorianism; and one of whom, Evelyn, was to write a series of immortal novels that will be prized as long as elegance and lethal wit are admired. Evelyn begat, among seven others, Auberon Waugh, who would carry on in the family tradition of literary skill and eccentricity, becoming one of England's most incorrigibly cantankerous and provocative newspaper columnists, loved and loathed in equal measure. And Auberon begat Alexander, yet another writer in the family, to whom it has fallen to tell this extraordinary tale of four generations of scribbling male Waughs.
