DETAILS ABOUT THE PACKAGE:

The A.W.E. Project: Reinventing Education, Reinventing the Human


Great Books from Wood LakeMatthew Fox | 192 PP | 6" x 9" | Paper | List Price: $24.95 | Matthew Fox has done it again. As one of the most prophetic voices of our time, he has created a unique project that speaks the concerns and hopes of all of us who care about creating lives of meaning - for ourselves, our communities, our children and our children's children. The A.W.E. Project reminds us that awe is the appropriate response to the unfathomable wonder that is creation. This approach to learning, eldering, and mentoring is intelligent enough to honor the teachings of the Ancestors, to nurture Wisdom in addition to imparting knowledge, and to Educate through Fox's 10 C's. The 10 C's are the core of the A.W.E. philosophy and process of education, and include: compassion, contemplation, and creativity. The A.W.E. Project does for the vast subject of "learning" what Fox's Reinvention of Work did for vocation and Original Blessing did for theology. With passion and conviction, Fox turns conventional "education" upside down, shakes out what is no longer working, and offers visions of what can be.

A World of Faith: Introducing Spiritual Traditions to Teens


New from Wood LakeCarolyn Pogue | 192 PP | 7.5" x 9" | Paper | List Price: $29.95 | The teen years are often a time for searching and questioning many of the fundamental aspects of one's culture and society. This traditional questioning of life by teens often includes the aspect of faith - their own and that of others. What would it be like to follow the Hindu faith? How would my life be shaped by this? What are the beliefs of those who follow that tradition? What guidelines would I adopt in my everyday journeying? Carolyn Pogue's comprehensive book covers most of the world's main religions in a way that provides insight to these and many other wonderings in an accessible and captivating way. Carolyn's emphasis is not restricted to describing the unique practices of the various faith traditions included in the book; rather, she goes beyond institutional rites and beliefs to touch on the deeper truths common to humanity. Full-colour photographs and comments from teens from other cultures allow teens to appreciate how the influences of different faith traditions affect other lives in a relevant way.
