Esther's Christmas Gift Guide
We human persons are philosophical beings, lovers meant for communion with the real, oriented from birth in the welcome of our mothers, family and friends in a joyous yes to existence in the world. All this is natal and natural; the skewed presumptions of modernist philosophy can well have eclipsed it and numbed us; we sorely need release and restoration. A new year draws us to reflect on our existence and purpose. My books aid this deepest philosophical desire.
My books are especially apropos at Advent and Christmas and Epiphany! One of their major themes is the surprising coming of the real from beyond us, graciously welcoming us into communion. Although this is the ultimate message of the Lord of all, it permeates his world and our understanding involvement with it.
Although each book addresses all of us, each book particularly targets certain people. Here are some ideas; click on each title to learn more.
