| Klaus Nagorni | | Wonderfully Secure | | Stories that Comfort |
Children cry when they skin their knees, but once they are comforted, everything is okay again.

| Detlef Wendler | | Prayer | | Discovering Healing Powers |
Autonomous prayer keeps us healthy and contributes to healing – that has even been scientifically proven. Prayer helps us get through difficult times, and improves both the quality of our life and enjoyment of it. It reduces stress, frees us from psychological dependency and fortifies us, and is a source of strength as we overcome destructive habits and thought patterns. But how do we find the right words for prayer in our own hearts? How do we develop prayer rituals and meditations that suit our unique personalities? |

| Anselm Grün | | Trusting in Change | | How Our Lives Become Whole |
“Spiritual life is not a goal to be achieved, but rather an inner path that wants us to keep changing.” Benedictine monk Anselm Grün encourages his readers to trust in this continual transformation rather than feeling pressure to bring about change themselves, just because this or that doesn’t seem right. |
