a new independent publisher
Joanna Hill, former Editor and Director of the Swedenborg Foundation, has
formed a new independent publishing house, Rock Point Press, in Santa Fe,
New Mexico, with co-owner Marcy Heller.
Joanna says they will publish creative nonfiction and historically based
children’s books, as well as books about Southwest history, spirituality and
general trade, including memoirs and cookbooks. “We want to publish books,”
she says, “that make a difference, ones that make the world a better place
because we know more about our history and our place in the world.”
In September they will publish Spiritual Law: The Essence of Swedenborg’s
Divine Providence – the first in a series of “Swedenborg simplified” readers for
the contemporary spiritual seeker.

do you haiku?
Among the “fillers” scattered throughout the pages of this issue of New Church
Life – and others to come – are Haiku offered by Gerald Hurst of Huntingdon
Valley, Pennsylvania. These come to him, he says, “as the spirit moves me.” We
are grateful for them and hope you enjoy them.
NEW CHURCH HAIKU
The Lord is in me
His Word is a living thing
Now I am awake!
