K.T. Vaughan Parish Librarian

In times of need, I often find it helpful to turn to the writings of others for counsel and comfort. If you have also been looking for words of encouragement or explanation, I have some suggestions from our library that may suit your needs. Books on the Christian response to war, the relationship of our faith to other faiths, and histories of other faiths are all scattered around the library, especially in Sections 3 (Theology), 5 (Prayer & Meditation), 9 (Philosophy & Religion), 12 (Fiction, Poetry, and Drama), and 15 (Social & Political Issues).

"Islam," by John A. Williams (3-GRE ISL)

"The World's Religions," by Huston Smith (9-SMIw)

"Understanding World Religions," by George W. Braswell, Jr. (9-BRAu)

"Peace in Our Time?" by David Atkinson (3-ATK)

"Seeds of Peace," by William H. Shannon (15-SHA)

"Prayers of the Saints," edited by Woodeene Koenig-Bricker (5-KOE)

"Psalms of Lament," by Ann Weems (12-WEEp)
