For several months he angrily demanded answers from God, if God were there. One afternoon, an inner voice told him to get a pen and paper and write.

Just up! MSI Press associate, Anne Laforge, retired English and literature teacher, interviewed author Steven Greenebaum when he came to California on a book tour and swung through San Juan Bautista, location of MSI Press's The Literary Center. (He also gave a lecture at two interfaith sites; we have video from one of those presentations and will post it at some point in the future.) Listen to the podcast about  One Family: Indivisible  on our podcast page on our website by clicking  HERE . Take a look at Steven's book -- Amazon has a Look Inside . Throughout history we have divided ourselves into groupings of "us" and "them".  One Family: Indivisible  engagingly   invites the reader into the deeply spiritual and lifelong journey of the author to find a way to acknowledge our differences without dividing and subdividing ourselves into competing tribes. It is a journey of mountain tops and deep valleys, but it leads to the inclusivity and mutual respec

  "Shake up your summer with these quality reads," advises Melanie Moore in the Entertainment Post. Among the select group of books she recommends is An Afternoon's Dictation by Steven Greenebaum . Listing: At Fifty years old, the author could not make sense of his life or the world around him. For several months he angrily demanded answers from God, if God were there. One afternoon, an inner voice told him to get a pen and paper and write. Steven then took dictation – three pages, not of commandments but guidance for leading a meaningful life. The book’s sections include deep explorations into “The Call to Interfaith,” “The Call to Love One Another,” “The Call to Justice,” and “The Call to Community.” An Afternoon’s Dictation builds on what unites our diverse spiritual traditions, not what divides us.
