5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book on Ceremonies, December 23, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sacred Ceremony: How to Create Ceremonies for Healing, Transitions, and Celebrations (Paperback)
*****
This is a great book on all aspects of ceremonies---design, planning, facilitation, and practicalities. It also includes many examples of various types of ceremonies chock full of great ideas and inspiration. I read this book all in one sitting, and enjoyed every minute of it.

If you are planning a ceremony, this book will be invaluable. Or if you are a minister or facilitator of ceremonies, it will also be invaluable.

Note that although typical Christian ceremonies are referred to, this book primarily deals with ceremonies that are creative or different from standard cultural celebrations. It doesn't focus on any one alternative tradition, but includes all---for example, Native American, Celtic, secular, etc. It would primarily appeal to the person who is wanting to design a meaningful and memorable ceremony of their own from any or no religious tradition.

I loved this book---it is definitely a reference book, but also a very enjoyable read. When you're done, you'll definitely understand how to plan and why you'd plan most any ceremony!

5.0 out of 5 stars Karen Anderson, April 11, 2003

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Sacred Ceremony: How to Create Ceremonies for Healing, Transitions, and Celebrations (Paperback)
There are certain books in our lifetime that we just know from the moment we open the dust cover and read the intro that there will be information in it's contents that will completely inspire us; Sacred Ceremony is just that type of book. From the first chapter until the last, Steven takes you through his journies of personal and professional experiences in his life and how different types of ceremonies brought to him and others a profound self healing and deep peaceful comfort. With each ceremony written, I felt Steven take me (as the reader) into the heart, soul and dynamics of the ceremonies with great ease and understanding. Those who are drawn to work with the elements of nature, the power of spirit, whether beginner or experienced, each will receive great blessings in absorbing the material writiten.

From page one to page done, you will be captivated and inspired, I assure you.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is a must!, May 30, 2003
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sacred Ceremony: How to Create Ceremonies for Healing, Transitions, and Celebrations (Paperback)
Steven has written the ultimate "how to" book for creating ceremonies. I appreciated his clear, easy-to-follow suggestions and examples. This book (the only one you'll ever need on this subject) excites the imagination to create a ceremony for every important event along life's path. As you can tell, I love this book and if I could, I would give it more than 5 stars!
