Reviews
"I can't say enough wonderful things about MaryAnn McKibben Dana's latest book. You must stop everything you are doing and read it now! Hope: A User's Manual is a well-researched, thought-provoking, and wise guide to approaching life's most unexpected and difficult moments. This book will be one I return to often for encouragement and share with many." -- Elizabeth Hagan author of Brave Church: Tackling Tough Topics Together "In a culture that far too often proffers either platitudes and positivity or disdain and despair, MaryAnn McKibben Dana's latest book, Hope: A User's Manual , honors complicated questions while offering practical pathways to hope. She draws on a wide range of resources and, in the end, enables the reader to imagine, and even craft, a more hopeful story for themselves and for our world." -- Jill J. Duffield author of Lent in Plain Sight: A Devotion through Ten Objects "I have recently rediscovered a hymn that is quickly becoming my new favorite. The chorus is a repetitive 'O Christ, surround me. O Christ, surround me.' As I read Rev. McKibben Dana's book on hope, I found that refrain echoing in my spirit. Her words about hope surrounded me with a renewed sense of the presence of the Holy. She reminded me of the courage that has sat dormant in my spirit over these last couple of years. I will move forward with a deeper appreciation of how hope is an action and not just a feeling. (And goodness knows I love a good, subversive action!) By doing so, I anticipate being even more deeply immersed in the presence of God who always surrounds me. I am thankful for her persistent, consistent, wonderfully disruptive reclaiming of hope." -- Shannon Johnson Kershner pastor of Fourth Presbyterian Church, Chicago "In an era when fear seems to have gained the upper hand, MaryAnn McKibben Dana has produced a much-needed 'user's manual' on hope. Drawing on her own rootedness in faith as well as personal experiences and keen insights on the human condition, MaryAnn's book lives up to its name. Anyone who needs motivation in these challenging and often discouraging times will find this volume, which includes reflective questions and suggestions for action at the end of each chapter, a helpful tool. MaryAnn openly shares her own struggles in a disarming way, and provides strategies for faithful, hope-filled living in a style remarkably free of 'churchy' or theological language. I highly recommend this book to those who need encouragement to 'keep on keeping on.' Perhaps that includes all of us!" -- Charles Yoost senior director of religious life and pastoral care at Lakeside Chautauqua, Ohio

Synopsis
What hope is , what hope isn't , and how to find it in hopeless times. Hope is not optimism. It's not toxic positivity. It's not a promise of future success or progress. And it's definitely not something that can be reduced to a scripty-font platitude on an Instagram post. So what is it? One thing is certain: real hope demands that we do something with it. That we live it out. That we use hope to participate in a bigger story playing out behind the bleak world we see on the news or in our social media feeds every day. It doesn't matter whether you're a person of faith, or someone disillusioned with faith, or someone who hardly ever thinks about faith: if you're a human being who longs for a spiritual counternarrative to live by, this book points to one resilient enough to endure crises and crushing defeats. If you're tired of hearing about some heavenly hereafter amid the pressing need for justice here and now, this is a book about hope for this world--not the next. After exploring what hope isn't and then what it is , MaryAnn McKibben Dana reflects on the surprising place where hope is often found--in the messiness of our imperfect, flawed, beautiful human bodies. In the second half of the book, she talks about making hope real: sharing hope through stories, cultivating hope through simple practices, and nurturing hope in hopeless times--when only real hope can persevere., When It Comes to Hope, our culture peddles a lot of cheap knockoffs. But that kind of "hope" falls short when things are bleak-which is exactly when we need hope the most. This is a book about real hope-a spiritual counternarrative resilient enough to endure crises and crushing defeats without forsaking the here and now. MaryAnn McKibben Dana reflects on what hope is not (optimism, toxic positivity, scripty-font platitudes on Instagram), what hope is (a story we live by), and where to find it in hopeless times (in the messiness of our imperfect, flawed, beautiful human bodies).

    Purchased 5 car Madison rail car set at auction. Received package well wrapped and in original box. Cars themselves are in excellent condition and mostly as described, although I believe they have seen some track time. That being said, seller offers returns so I'm confident seller was told these cars were new by whomever he got them from. The purchase price was excellent so when averaged with a higher than normal shipping fee it turned out to be an overall good deal.

    Awesome price on this vintage Italeri kit. Seller shipped it quickly at an average cost. The kit arrived safely, very carefully packaged in brand new materials. It was delivered just as it appeared in listing and photos. It was listed as used but really new in an open box complete with the decals and instructions. The kit also included extras, an Edward Models PE detail set and Check Master's engine kit. I'm extremely pleased with my purchase and I highly recommend the seller. Thanks!
