<p>Via Edna Hong's evocative word-pictures, Bright Valley of Love draws the reader into the soul-convulsing story of severely deformed Gunther who finds love and purpose at Bethel charitable institutes in Germany. This true-life tale follows Gunther from his destitute beginnings in 1914, the year WWI began, through the threats and terror of Nazi Germany and WWII. The universal truths of the value of the weakest and the obligation of the strong to defend them are especially relevant today, challenging the ideologies of our times.</p>

The way of the sacred tree

"The objective of this book is to review the complex of issues in Soren Kierkegaard's concept of existence. It is evident that for Kierkegaard existence is always composed of three elements: namely, the subject, freedom, and the ethical. In the process of clarifying the relation between these three elements in the different stages of existence, the course of the development the individual must go through in order to become the single individual is described. "The study falls into four parts. The first section describes the levels in existence on which as person attempts by his own powers to actualize the ethical ideals; in this stage the center of gravity for a person's effort still lies within the bounds of immanence. The second section describes a person's ethical and religious growth as it develops in relation to a transcendent power, whose highest expression is Christ as the revelation of God. The third section discusses the issues in existence that Kierkegaard himself designated as the most difficult of all for human thought. The last section points to the highest existential position to which philosophy in the broader sense and Christianity respectively can take a person. Kierkegaard utilizes these positions as a standard for evaluating existence within immanence and for Christian existence.
