The Soul of the Helper

Seven Stages to Seeing the Sacred within Yourself So You Can See It in Others

HOLLY K. OXHANDLER

In The Soul of the Helper, Dr. Holly K. Oxhandler shows caregivers and fellow helpers a more selfcompassionate way to cope with their overwhelming responsibilities and to attend to their own needs, particularly when it comes to their mental health and spiritual journey. She invites them to pause and realize that if they let their personal resources run dry, they cannot possibly care for others as fully as they wish. In fact, their efforts are likely to cause more harm than good.

HOLLY K. OXHANDLER is an associate professor and associate dean for research and faculty development at Baylor University’s Diana R. Garland School of Social Work.

The Black Boom

JASON L. RILEY

In The Black Boom, Jason L. Riley—acclaimed Wall Street Journal columnist and senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute—digs into the data and concludes that the economic lives of Black people improved significantly under policies put into place during the Trump administration. To acknowledge as much is not to endorse the fourty-fifth president but to champion policies that achieve a clear moral objective shared by most Americans.

JASON L. RILEY is a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute and a columnist for the Wall Street Journal, where he has published opinion pieces for over twenty-five years.
