Unitarian Universalist association Bookstore Catalog 2015 Dear Friends, Welcome back to the church year! We have new resources, new apparel to celebrate our UU identity, and a brand new name for the meditation manual series. Since 1961, Skinner House Books or one of its previous incarnations has produced a “meditation manual” at least once a year. With reflections suitable for both public worship and private reflection, these books have been alternately poetic and anecdotal, formal and chatty, serious and funny. Many Unitarian Universalists have complete sets going back decades. Skinner House’s editorial director, Mary Benard, explains, The authors of these reflections discuss their personal foibles, doubts, joys, and encounters with grace in a way that makes their experiences universal and transcendent. They show what it means to be a Unitarian Universalist rather than explain it. They offer a gentle invitation into a Unitarian Universalist way of moving through the world and growing our souls. We want to extend that invitation further now, beyond the long-time Unitarian Universalists who are already familiar with what we mean when we say “meditation manual.” These books are not, after all, instructions on how to meditate! They are reflections on how to live, worship, question, learn, grow, and deepen in spirit. Miles of Dream by Vanessa Rush Southern is the first book to be published under the inSpirit series title. The word inspirit is rich in apt meanings. It can mean to hearten, to infuse new life into, to fill with spirit, to encourage, to enliven, to bestow with strength or purpose, to exhilarate. This is what we want for you, and we hope that these books, which will continue to arrive with the spring each year, will continue to do all of this for you in your personal reflection and in your worship. We are also pleased to announce the arrival of Lifting Our Voices, a new supplement to the readings in Singing The Living Tradition, which will reinvigorate and update Unitarian Universalist worship. And we have several brand new items to help you show your UU pride, including messenger bags, umbrellas, and stylish new T-shirts. As always, your search for truth and meaning begins here.
