• Hope and courage from the ageless wisdom of the Psalms: For generations, the Book of Psalms has been a source of comfort for those ill or grieving. "The Healing Power of Psalms" identifies how each of 15 Psalms addresses particular situations, for when you are dealing with fear, loneliness, death, guilt, and more, and it underscores how the Psalms' themes of compassion and mercy can have a dramatic healing effect on the mind, spirit, and sometimes even the body.
• Ecumenical inspiration from one of the U.S.'s most highly regarded and pioneering spiritual teachers: For more than half a century, Rabbi Samuel Chiel has advised members of his Boston-area congregation (where he is now rabbi emeritus) to turn to their religious faith when despair and fear become overwhelming. Longtime host of NBC's "Eternal Light," Chiel has also been a pioneer in interfaith relations and in speaking to broad audiences about spiritual topics.
