Hilda states: "My interest in working with the Life History stems from many years of professional involvement with the older people. Clearly the Life History helped them recall their abilities in surmounting great difficulties, providing a strong foundation for getting on with life with renewed vigor and enthusiasm. A completed Life History gives the writer grand rewards: an enthusiasm for getting on with life, a document for living for the next generations, and for your family and friends, an opportunity to know who you are."




Your Mythic Journey


Book Description

We all tell stories about who we are, where we come from, and where we are going. These personal myths in turn shape who we become and what we believe—as individuals, families, and nations.

The numerous accessible exercises are followed by examples of personal stories and inspiring quotes to stimulate the journey to the center of one's purpose. "By the art of fantasy and imagination, story and image, these authors map the ways personal stories deepen into transpersonal mythic journeys." —David Miller, Ph.D., Watson-Ledden Professor of Religion, Syracuse University

A Journey of Self-Discovery


Book Description

Many Christian teachers dismiss the field of psychology, and self-discovery, similarly, is often discounted. But this author begs to differ. For inasmuch as we were created in God's image, to learn more about self is to learn more about the Father we were fashioned after, and vice versa. After all, we look a lot alike. ALL truth is compatible with Scripture because God is the author of it all, and that includes many of the theories of psychology. True, psychology typically leaves out the main character of the biblical story, but that's not to say we still can't learn from this discipline, as long as we keep things in proper perspective. In this book, six psychological theories of human behavior are given a Christian interpretation. The goal is to incorporate all of God's truth to more fully understand our struggle to become princes.
