Most people feel like they can’t accomplish all they want in a given day. They feel overwhelmed, overworked, and short on time. Most adults feel like they can’t conquer all their tasks and still live a fulfilling life. But if you go into each day with a plan and a purpose for conquering the day and an aim for God-sized and God-focused goals, you can do it. Go with Grace seeks to help those who want to better themselves physically, spiritually, and emotionally by learning to give yourself grace and lean on God’s strength and others. It provides strategies and planning tools to develop healthy routines so you can go into each day knowing you are prepared to persevere in God’s plans for your life. When you don’t have goals and dreams, you settle for being less than you are destined to be. Along the way, you can learn to give yourself grace to be messy and rely on others for help. And in doing so, you can conquer the tasks laid before you each day and feel less overwhelmed. Stop living day by day, and start dreaming big and reaching for the goals that God has set for you. This faith-inspired self-help guide presents methods for setting goals, making plans, giving yourself grace, letting others help, and giving it to God.

In this companion to his best-selling translation of The Dhammapada, Eknath Easwaran explains how The Dhammapada is a perfect map for the spiritual journey. Said to be the text closest to the Buddha’s actual words, The Dhammapada is a collection of short teachings that his disciples memorized during his lifetime. Easwaran presents The Dhammapada as a guide to spiritual perseverance, progress, and ultimately enlightenment — a heroic confrontation with life as it really is, with straight answers to our deepest questions. We witness the heartbreak of death, for instance — what does that mean for us? What is love? How does karma work? How do we follow the spiritual life in the midst of work and family? Does nirvana really exist, and if so, what is it like to be illumined? In his interpretation of Buddhist themes, illustrated with stories from the Buddha’s life, Easwaran offers a view of the concept of Right Understanding that is both exhilarating and instructive. He shares his experiences on the spiritual path, giving the advice that only an experienced teacher and practitioner can offer, and urges us to answer for ourselves the Buddha’s call to nirvana — that mysterious, enduring state of wisdom, joy, and peace.

The events of this novel unfold through the eyes of Hershl, who leaves his small town to become educated only to return to the Pale of Settlement in the wake of the pogroms in 1881. S. Y. Abramovitsh's famed epic novel explores the social upheaval of Russian Jews who are forced by poverty to leave their homes. The novel achieved canonical status both in its Yiddish original and in its Hebrew version, under the title In the Vale of Tears. In this work Michael Wex renders the time-worn tale with the skill and ease of a modern storyteller and humorist. Abramovitsh's artistry lies not in the plot but in his descriptions and ever-shifting narrative voice. Sometimes the narrator (Mendele the Bookseller) speaks from within the shtetl and sometimes from outside; and often he interweaves the high rhetorical prose of Hershl himself, reborn by the novel's end as Heinrich Cohen. Wex's adroit new translation will appeal to scholars of Yiddish fiction and general readers alike.
