God in the Dark: Through Grief and Beyond

Biographies & Memoirs

GOD IN THE DARK is one woman's record of her journey through grief and beyond. Poet Luci Shaw's journal of her husband's terminal cancer begins with the doctor's first diagnosis and follows her through the early months of her widowhood. In these pages, we see the complexities of a fragile three-way relationship - between a man, a woman, and God. With deep insight and honesty, Luci Shaw probes the paradoxes of faith with which we all struggle - when we are honest enough to admit it. This story moves in and out of shadow, and if her insights seem sharp and bleak one moment, only to be clear and hopeful the next - she can only say, simply, "This is how it was. This is how I lived it." She called this book GOD IN THE DARK because it was a journey through night, through a place in which God seemed dark to her. Her penetrating question "Where is God's promised presence?" troubles us all, compelling us to investigate more urgently the mysterious ways of the Almighty. GOD IN THE DARK is for anyone who has known the loss of a loved one and wonders, "Why does God darken his face when we most need the comfort of his warmth and light?"

This beautiful gathering of contemporary lyric poems by best-selling author and poet Luci Shaw celebrates both the magnificence and the meaning of water in its myriad forms. 
"Water Lines" includes sixty-three new and selected poems by Shaw, all reflecting the evocative nature of water. The steady hush of falling rain, the white noise of a waterfall, the glittering sounds of a fountain, the washing of ripples against rocks in a clear northern lake, the surging of a mountain stream — Shaw shows how these watery wonders refresh the ear and eye and, further, penetrate the soul. 
As with all her poetry on creation, Shaw sees the invisible, thinks the universal, and finds in the natural world superb metaphors for human life: "I think it's the fluidity of water — the way it constantly renews itself — that reminds me of the possibility, and the need, for change and renewal." "Water Lines" vividly captures water's effects on our senses and invites us to explore this persistent reality, which "pools in the Creator's hand," Shaw says, "and falls, like blessing, on all our heads." 
Filled with luminous images and insights, "Water Lines" is a book to give, to receive, to savor.

From the time she was a child in Toronto, celebrated poet Luci Shaw has sent Advent greetings to her friends and family with a carefully crafted original poem. What began as a simple childhood exercise has now become a beloved annual tradition. Though a number of these poems have appeared elsewhere, Accompanied by Angels gathers all of them for the first time into a collection for all readers for any season of the year. Beginning with the joy, terror, and wonder of the annunciation, Shaw leads the reader on a poetic journey through the birth, life, and death of Jesus the Christ, culminating in the joyous and unexpected wonder of his resurrection. Her subjects run from the mundane to the sublime, from birds in flight and waiting old men to fiery angels and storm-ravaged ridges.

Here is a collection of read-aloud, read-together prayers that will draw close friends even closer---to each other, to God, and to the fascinating authors of these prayers. 
In a brief foreword, Madeleine L'Engle and Luci Shaw talk about the prayers they offer and reflect on the experience of prayer in their lives and in their friendship. Then, successive page spreads feature prayers from both authors about a specific topic or for a special occasion. The prayers are interactive---voices responding to each other, praying for each other, praying together---and designed to be prayed aloud, together, by spiritual friends. With the prayers, L'Engle and Shaw suggest settings that might enhance the experience. 
Topics and occasions for the prayers are as universal as the experiences of all friends. The prayers themselves are as unique as the personalities and experiences of the partners who wrote the book and those who use it. 
This is a book that will build prayer and friendships---a perfect gift for friends to share.

Unexpectedly, the moment of opportunity comes to us--the prospect of entering a reality larger than we'd guess. A spacious option opens up before us, an urgent demand that seems to call for special enterprise, life-threatening perils or summons to action. Suddenly we realize that such a chance might never come again. What do you do when faced with such a moment? Do you sometimes get frozen into a state of inaction? Do you wonder if you are wasting the talents God has given you? Or if you enjoy adventure, do you struggle over whether a risk is just a reckless attempt to feed your own needs or a true calling from God? Luci Shaw has learned to act with discernment in regard to motivation and calling. She has discovered a path of deep joy and fulfillment by risking the unknown in partnership with God. In this book you will find the way to break through the fear barrier and follow God to new levels.
