Zenkei Blanche Hartman is an American Zen legend. A teacher in the lineage of Shunryu Suzuki, author of Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind, she was the first female abbot of an American Zen center. She is greatly revered, especially in the San Francisco Bay Area, where she has lived and taught for many years. This, her long-awaited first book, is a collection of short teachings taken from her talks on the subject of boundlessness—the boundlessness that sees beyond our small, limited self to include all others. To live a boundless life she encourages living the vows prescribed by the Buddha and living life with the curiosity of a child. The short, stand-alone pieces can be dipped into whenever one is in need of inspiration.

Memories are the fond things we remember about life, or at least they are supposed to be. I suspect that most mamas tell their little girls about becoming a woman. Love is always happily ever after. Growing up should have been marked with beautiful stories about train rides to visit my hometown of Shreveport, Louisiana. However, life for me consisted of unfathomable wickedness and pure evil by the ones closest to my heart. By the grace of God, a seed of hope was planted, and I was able to find love in an unlovable situation. I expressed my heart through writings and found victory in Jesus Christ. After many years of stumbling through a wilderness, I now have peace, learned to forgive, and live again.

Discover the fascinating and surprising ways that seeds move and find a place to grow in this gorgeous picture book from Caldecott Honoree Robin Page. Every seed, big or small, needs sunlight, water, and an uncrowded place to put down roots. But how do seeds get to the perfect place to grow? This exploration of seed dispersal covers a wide range of seeds and the creatures that help them move, from a coconut seed floating on waves to an African grass seed rolled by a dung beetle, to a milkweed seed floating on the wind.

This book is to be read through and studied for a radical change of heart and a fruitful evangelism ministry! Inspired by the Parable of the Sower, Professor Fomum teaches on the different types of hearts. There is the wayside heart, the stony heart, the thorny heart, and the good heart which is symbolised by good soil. The author identifies the importance of the heart and gives the characteristics of each heart, while showing that each man is responsible for the type of heart he has. To have the heart that is good soil, ready for planting, you have to overthrow the self in you, and rid your heart of all forms of idols. Why does the author dwell so much on the heart as soil? Because it is good soil that bears good fruit. It is good soil that bears great fruit. It is good soil that bears abundant fruit. That's why he goes on to speak extensively about ways to bear fruit in abundance. This book is to be read through and studied for a radical change of heart and a fruitful evangelism ministry, because as the author says, ''It is ripe fruit that produces ripe fruit!"
