Lessons in Becoming Myself

Ellen Burstyn has always defied expectations. Born in Detroit during the Depression, she left home at 18 and became a model for J.L. Hudson, Detroit's largest department store. After a failed marriage and a string of unsatisfying relationships and jobs, Burstyn settled in New York, where she began her career as an actress. Her first audition landed her the lead in a Broadway play, with the show's producer, legendary playwright and director Moss Hart, telling her, "You're natural." After Burstyn reluctantly moved to Los Angeles with her second husband, she eventually turned to film, delivering brilliant performances in The Last Picture Show, The Exorcist, Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore (for which she won an Academy Award for Best Actress), Same Time, Next Year, Resurrection, and Requiem for a Dream. Burstyn describes the personal missteps, toxic relationships, and private demons she has battled, and how confronting them prompted her to find a different life path. Raised a Catholic, she has traveled the world exploring a range of spiritual experiences. From the Swiss Alps to Cambodia, from the Himalayas to the streets of New York, she has sought and found answers to life's most puzzling questions. Lessons in Becoming Myself is the extraordinary story of her quest for the examined life. By turns tragic and funny, thoughtful and lighthearted, it is a brilliant accomplishment by one of the finest observers of human nature.

Tomorrow's God: Our Greatest Spiritual Challenge

The New Revelations

A healing message from the author of the phenomenally successful Conversations with God series, Walsch's new audiobook is a response to the very real and genuine crisis the world is now facing. A life-altering book given to us when we need it most, THE NEW REVELATIONS provides the tools with which to pull ourselves out of despair, lifting the whole human race to a new expression of its grandest vision. Profound, provocative and nonsectarian, Walsch offers solutions to the aggression and dogma troubling the world. THE NEW REVELATIONS is spiritual and philosophical, but it is also subtly prescriptive, offering Five Fallacies About Life, Five Fallacies About God, and Five Steps to Peace. The ten fallacies make for a deadly litany of error that has created, and continues to create to this very moment, a world of violence, terrible loss, deep anger, unrelenting sorrow, and unremitting terror. We cannot change conditions of violence, loss, anger, sorrow and terror by political or economic means. We must do it by confronting these fallacies. Only then can we choose the Five Steps to Peace. THE NEW REVELATIONS gives us an extraordinary insight into what's really happening to us right now on this planet, why we've gone astray, and how we can get back on the path we wish to take.

Communion with God

In 1992, Neale Donald Walsch-depressed, in poor health, unhappy with his life, wrote an angry letter to God. His frustrated questions, What does it take to make life work? What have I done to deserve a life of such continuing struggle?, poured out onto a yellow legal pad. Before he was through, his pen stayed suspended over the paper, and a reply was whispered into his mind by a voiceless voice:"Do you really want an answer to all these questions, or are you just venting?" Communion with God is the latest in a series of books chronicling Walsch's extraordinary experience.
