You may wonder why I titled this book: ‘The Mystery Book.’ Actually had I not, it would have been called: ‘Miracles, Modern Day Psalms, Modern Day Proverbs, Revelation, Prayers, Humor, And Poetry. (Plus much, much more.)’ It turns out that the more, and more I wrote, the bigger the name of the book kept getting, because it had such a large variety of topics. I truly believe that you find it insightful, enlightening, educational, interesting, entertaining, and well worth your time to read. Mark 8:36 K.J.V.: For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
Living into the Mystery combines the wit and wisdom of life experience and spiritual adventures in a series of letters that answer questions about faith and doubt, creativity, commitment, and community. Letter-writing is a lost art. Collected here are the letters of a compassionate pastor to the people who ask her questions in the strangest of places?from airplanes to barnyards. ?Arising from a pastor's heart, these letters give voice to the struggles of the spirit and offer insight as well as compassion. I found myself thinking of the times I wished I had written similar things to similar questioners. These letters provide fertile reflection for pilgrims in every stage of the spiritual journey.? Thomas M. Greener, DMin Pastor, Camp Ground UMC Fayetteville, North Carolina

For the first time in one place, Roger M. Sobin has compiled a list of nominees and award winners of virtually every mystery award ever presented. He has also included many of the “best of” lists by more than fifty of the most important contributors to the genre.; Mr. Sobin spent more than two decades gathering the data and lists in this volume, much of that time he used to recheck the accuracy of the material he had collected. Several of the “best of” lists appear here for the first time in book form. Several others have been unavailable for a number of years.; Of special note, are Anthony Boucher’s “Best Picks for the Year.” Boucher, one of the major mystery reviewers of all time, reviewed for The San Francisco Chronicle, Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine, and The New York Times.
