Many people are fascinated by angels, and some believe they have encountered them. In this beautifully illustrated book, Jane Williams traces the story of angels in the Jewish and Christian traditions. She shows how angels interact with humans at key moments in history, how they comfort and encourage, and how they move people forward in important ways and at special moments. As she explores angelic activity in the Scriptures, the author opens up for readers a universe that is far more complex and intriguing than many would believe possible. She examines issues and questions such as what angels look like, guardian angels, fallen angels, angels and Jesus, angels after the Bible, and more. This enchanting book will widen readers??? horizons and set them upon a voyage of discovery.

Adults of all ages everywhere who feel stressed and unfocused are quieting their minds and souls by putting away the smart phones and tablets and picking up pencils, markers and crayons to color. At home, in waiting rooms, in churches, on road trips - coloring books for adults are becoming more and more popular.
These coloring books for adults from Paraclete are not only a simple path to making something beautiful, it has a spiritual element as well. For anyone who loves Celtic spirituality, coloring these 30 patterns each paired with a blessing, will relax the mind and enrich the heart.

"Sometimes coloring is just coloring. To put crayons to paper and create a rainbow of marks and swaths is relaxing, playful, and maybe even artistically satisfying. But sometimes coloring is more. To put colored crayons, markers, or pencils to paper is to create a pathway to the numinous. Coloring invites the body and the senses into an experience of inner stillness. While the hand moves, the mind and the body slow down. The heart and the ears open carving a space for rich silence and an opportunity for God to speak." --Sybil MacBeth, author of Praying in Color: Drawing a New Path to God
