From among the many journal entries written by Concepcion Cabrera de Armida (Conchita), mother of nine and Foundress of the Sisters of the Cross, these were selected to display her spirituality and contribution to love for the Blessed Sacrament. This book, therefore, contains a good source of Eucharistic spirituality for which so many are hungering today.
Since its initial release, this book, now with ICS Publications, has been a valuable resource for those wanting to explore the key works and teachings of St. Elizabeth of the Trinity in a convenient format. In this concise introduction to and anthology of the works of the young Carmelite from Dijon, Marian Murphy mines Elizabeth’s writings – her diary, letters, and poetry—for the most significant extracts that present the saint’s spiritual doctrine, then presents them with useful introductions and commentary. Always Believe in Love is an excellent primer for those just discovering Elizabeth as well as a handy reference work for those wanting to deepen their familiarity with the saint’s key writings. The book contains photos and a chronology of St. Elizabeth’s life.
The reader will be appraised of how God has been speaking to His people through public and private revelation for over 2000 years. A special chapter in this work deals with some saints and holy people who have had private revelations about or visits from souls in purgatory, hell or heaven. Another chapter and several of the appendixes are devoted to Marian Apparitions to include those that are approved, not approved and those appending a decision by the Church. By far one of the greatest strengths of this undertaking is the identification of some 43 categories of concomitant extraordinary phenomena and some of the saints and holy people who have experienced them. Color paintings by artists are depicted of some saints experiencing such mystical phenomena. Another unique feature of the book is a listing of some 600 individuals from the 13th to the 21st centuries who bore the stigmata. By knowing that God is present and alive to His people this book may help bring others to a deeper faith in God.
The Arms of God is a love story in which the author weaves together the life stories of the Sisters of St. Mary of Namur from their first call to religious life, to teaching and mission work, to a deeper sense of community during the challenging times that followed Vatican II. As beautifully expressed by Sister Gabriella, Falling in love with God determines if I will get up in the morning; it is the WHY I am moved to do all these things am I called to do . . . it is necessary to continue to remember and cherish our call, to listen again to the language of love, of the first love, of what or Who . . . drew you . . . What gift do I give in return? The Sisters' journey carries them from the early days of Catholic education in Texas, to Africa and the terrible years of the Rawandan genocide, and to carrying God's message today in Fort Worth, Texas. Their intimate stories draw the reader into the Sisters' lives, sharing laughter in one moment and tears in the next. Join these remarkable teachers, nurses, and missionaries as they accomplish the seemingly impossible while following the path God has placed before them. Sister Patricia shares, when you move from believing something to doing something uncomfortable . . . having once done that, then there's a freedom . . . a different way of feeling, a different way of understanding what might need to be done. This is a timely story of love, faith, and freedom that challenges readers to listen for the call of God in their own lives.
This work is a testament of how a believer can reach God through everyday encounter in one’s own state of life. In a world of many challenges, it encourages the reader to remain strong as well as trustful in God whose gift we are. Human search for the Divine is a lifelong one which can only be successful when we allow Christ to lead. As Christ leads the way, we must follow perseveringly until we reach the summit of the mountaintop for the great banquet of the Lord.
Much of the existing scholarship on Nancy Mairs has approached her essays in the context of disability studies. This book seeks to broaden the conversation through a range of critical perspectives and with attention to underrepresented aspects of Mairs's oeuvre, demonstrating her provocative combination of bold ethics and subtle aesthetics.
This is a detailed description of the various Sufi orders and movements which entered into the Balkans, the Crimean peninsula and other parts of Eastern Europe following the Ottoman conquests. Many of the Sufis came from Christian societies, principally from an Eastern Orthodox background, but others, such as the Bosnians, from churches that were accused or suspected of heterodoxy of belief and of antinomianism. These beliefs, together with pre-Christian beliefs, influenced by Manicheanism, Dualism and pantheism, left their mark on Sufi Islam. The book concentrates on the Bosnians, Bulgarians, Albanians and Tatars. Their Sufism reflects their national aspirations, and their writings fuse their mysticism, national faith and folklore in a Sufism which is quite distinct from that in other regions of the Muslim world.
Is it possible that a body of Christian poetry is now being produced whose literary merit is equal to its religious conviction? David Impastato's splendid anthology, Upholding Mystery, answers that question with a resounding and surprising "yes".".
