Easing into the Gospel of Thomas is the third book in the growing Easing Into collection. This short introduction to one of the earliest non-canonical Christian texts features 10 great ideas that define the core meaning of this rich piece of literature. Each chapter poses five questions designed to stimulate group discussion or journal writing, making the work useful in both community settings and for home-based comparative religion study.

Jerusa Phoenix hungers for blood, but her ghost won’t let her feed.

After a ruthless battle to protect some innocent humans, she encounters three vampire women who make her a deadly proposition.

Fragments have turned up over the years - tantalizing scraps of a once widely-read and copied manuscript. Unlike some Gnostic texts which create a fantastic cosmology, this small piece of writing bridges vision and reality and captures the tension between disciples enmeshed in a patriarchal culture and a woman who is sometimes called the "apostle to the apostles".

Jerusa’s interference has unleashed a monstrous entity with a taste for vampires and humans alike. Her only option: employ her spectral powers to hunt down the fiend before it can rip a bloody path through the entire town. Will her new companions help her kill the creature....

Easing into the Dhammapada, the second title in the Easing Into Collection, is and introduction to one of the oldest scriptures of the Buddhist canon.

She cites where the great ideas appear and invites you into further study. Responsive poetry and at least five questions posed at the end of each chapter help stimulate small group interaction or individual journaling experiences.

Mia’s ordinary life is disrupted for good in the most horrifying way possible when she is possessed by a hungry and powerful demon - and saved only by the arrival of relatives from Italy, the country her grandfather fled many decades ago. Now her cousins, the charming and gorgeous Emilio, and stern, elderly Giuliano, say the only way to keep Mia safe is for her to come back with them to Milan - to live, to learn Italian, to fall in and out of love, and to master the family trade: fighting all demons with the ancient lore of bell, book, and candle.
