CONTAGIOUS FAITH: WHY THE CHURCH MUST SPREAD HOPE, NOT FEAR IN A PANDEMIC

CONTAGIOUS FAITH: WHY THE CHURCH MUST SPREAD HOPE, NOT FEAR IN A PANDEMIC
$19.95
In this clear-eyed book about the real Covid crisis, Philip Lawler dissects how Church leaders and the faithful responded to this health emergency. He explains the devastating effects on society when Church leaders tell their people not to attend Sunday Mass, and when they ban Confession, marriages, and baptisms. He tackles the dangerous consequences of treating schoolchildren like lepers and explores the ethics of vaccines and the plight of parish priests caught in the middle.

CONTEMPLATIVE PRAYER (P)

CONTEMPLATIVE PRAYER (P)
$13.00
In this classic text, Thomas Merton offers valuable guidance for prayer. He brings together a wealth of meditative and mystical influences-from John of the Cross to Eastern desert monasticism-to create a spiritual path for today. Most important, he shows how the peace contacted through meditation should not be sought in order to evade the problems of contemporary life, but can instead be directed back out into the world to affect positive change.

Contemplative Prayer is one of the most well-known works of spirituality of the last one hundred years, and it is a must-read for all seeking to live a life of purpose in today's world.

In a moving and profound introduction, Thich Nhat Hanh offers his personal recollections of Merton and compares the contemplative traditions of East and West.

COVENANT & COMMUNION

COVENANT & COMMUNION
$21.99
New/Used: New
Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger's election as Pope Benedict XVI brought a world-class biblical theologian to the papacy. There is an intensely biblical quality to his pastoral teaching and he has demonstrated a keen concern for the authentic interpretation of sacred Scripture.

Here a foremost interpreter of Catholic thought and life offers a probing look at Benedict's biblical theology and provides a clear and concise introduction to his life and work. Bestselling author and theologian Scott Hahn argues that the heart of Benedict's theology is salvation history and the Bible and shows how Benedict accepts historical criticism but recognizes its limits. The author also explains how Benedict reads the overall narrative of Scripture and how he puts it to work in theology, liturgy, and Christian discipleship.

DANCING STANDING STILL: HEALING THE WORLD FROM A PLACE OF PRAYER

DANCING STANDING STILL: HEALING THE WORLD FROM A PLACE OF PRAYER
$14.95
Now in a new edition, this thought-provoking book by popular author Richard Rohr offers a critique of religion as a system that often creates an alternative, pious world without really challenging oppression, materialism, and sectarianism in our modern world. Religion, he says, without this contemplative stance, is often part of the problem. Drawing from Jesus' parable of the rich man, Rohr believes that religion can only rediscover itself as a transformational system if it passes through the eye of a needle, if it overcomes its own temptation to power, wealth, and fundamentalism. A true contemplative stance crosses boundaries, is not concerned with who's in and who's out. It is not a worthiness competition. In fact, the accessibility of the contemplative awareness to all is, Rohr believes, the key to the Gospel message: The kingdom of heaven is hidden in plain sight.

    DOMESTIC MONASTERY

    DOMESTIC MONASTERY
    $16.00
    What is a monastery? A monastery is a place set apart--a place to learn the blessings of powerlessness, and that time is not ours but God's. Our home and our duties can, just like a monastery, teach us those things. The vocation of monastic men and women is to physically withdraw from the world. But the principle is equally valid for those of us who cannot go off to monasteries. Certain vocations offer the same kind of opportunity for contemplation, and provide a desert for reflection.

    In ten brief and powerful chapters, Fr. Ron explores how monastery life can apply to those who don't live in a cloister:
    - Monasticism and Family Life
    - The Domestic Monastery
    - Real Friendship
    - Lessons from the Monastic Cell
    - Ritual for Sustaining Prayer
    - Tensions within Spirituality
    - A Spirituality of Parenting
    - Spirituality and the Seasons of Our Lives
    - The Sacredness of Time
    - Life's Key Question

    DREAMS ON THE SPIRITUAL JOURNEY

    DREAMS ON THE SPIRITUAL JOURNEY
    $4.00

    Dreams are not the domain of psychology.  A wholesome spirituality cannot ignore God's forgotten language in dreams.  Dreams tell us where we stand.  They point out the tasks which we have to address on our spiritual journey.  In dreams, we encounter the dark side of our nature that we may present it to the light of God and be healed.  Dreams as companions on our spiritual journey guard against single-minded endeavors and give precedence to God's grace.
