When Peter arrives in the medieval town of Assisi, birthplace of St. Francis, his main interest is in painting until he becomes involved in the lives of the local people, of one girl in particular. But disturbing news from beyond the safety of the city walls can no longer be ignored. It is only months before the outbreak of the second World War.
Originally published in French in 1894, Sabatier’s was the first modern biography of Francis of Assisi. It was a worldwide bestseller, and in 2003 when this new edition was first published, it again sold more than 60,000 copies and was a selection of History Book Club. This new 120th anniversary edition includes a dozen additional annotations and a new preface by the editor, putting Sabatier’s influential work into its historical context, showing why it is still the most essential life of the saint.
There are many editions of the writings of St. Francis, and biographies about him, but here in one volume are both, plus the complete text of the late medieval work, The Little Flowers, which did more to establish the legend of the man than any other work. This "Paraclete Giants" edition includes the complete Road to Assisi, Paul Sabatier's ground-breaking and foundational biography of the saint, first published in French in 1894 and re-issued and expanded in 2002; the complete Francis in His Own Words: The Essential Writings; and The Little Flowers, thus offering the best introduction to St. Francis yet available between two covers. Other Paraclete Giants include The Complete Julian of Norwich and The Complete Introduction to the Devout Life, both translated and introduced by Fr. John-Julian, OJN.
This captivating narrative tells the story of the life and adventures of a "western" woman with "eastern" experiences. Told with candor and humility, it describes the agony and ecstasy of an exceptional growth process that includes fascinating encounters with many Masters on this and the higher planes. The reader will come away inspired and encouraged to seek the personal relationship to the Light that weaves like a common thread through the author's ongoing journey toward awakening. More than an interesting autobiography, Agreements is thus a "teaching tale" with a universal message.CONTENTSDedicationAcknowledgmentForewordCHAPTER TITLES:Setting the Stage"Different" from the BeginningLittle WomenA Mess and a MessageTwo Fathers, no Mother"All You Need is Love"More ChangeElusive ComfortOne Marriage, Two Births, and Two DeathsOrphaned, Divorced, Afraid – and FreeA Woman's Search for MeaningBecoming a DirectorAn EpiphanyMaking a Fool of Myself – RepeatedlyForays into MetaphysicsForays into ChannelingAscended MastersGrowing into Becoming a ChannelApprenticeshipIndian AdventuresAnother EpiphanyThe River of LifeTwin FlameReunited – Torn ApartA Mystic in TrainingMeeting More MastersMore of a MessReturn to IndiaReturn to RuinsSurrenderKnight in Shining ArmorFusing Two Lives and a SpineThe Third Try is the CharmForging a New PathOn a Quest for HealingDaskalosMore LessonsOur First BookAnother LossReunion in IndiaThe Spirit of AssisiChild in Ukraine – Family in IndiaA Message from K.P.Meeting Our ChildrenBecoming Instant Parents of TwoForging a FamilyEpilogueThoughts to Take HomeAPPENDIXIntroduction to Psychoenergetic HealingPublications from Expansion Publishing
The Sunrise of the Soul is the fruit of the last 24 years of an unexpected new life and a journey of transformation that took Gerry Straub from the glamour of Hollywood to the horror of the worst slums on earth. Straub’s journey began in an empty church in Rome during a moment of grace in which the hard shell of his ardent atheism was penetrated by a spark of light, allowing him to see that God was real and loved him just as he was. Eventually, Straub felt God telling him to stop filming the poor and to go live among the poor. He now lives in a crowded slum in Haiti where he operates a home of hope and healing for 69 abandoned kids, 24 of whom are still in diapers. Straub says his journey is far from over and will never be finished. As Karl Rahner reminded us, “In the torment of the insufficiency of everything attainable we ultimately learn that here, in this life, all symphonies must remain unfinished.” Living in a home with 69 kids in Haiti means that the stillness and silence needed for contemplation are virtually nonexistent. After more than four years of intense work in Haiti, Gerry began to commit himself to the rejuvenating power of authentic solitude in order to turn his attention to his own inner spiritual poverty. In the silent predawn darkness of each Haitian morning he waits, reflects, and prays. This book emerged slowly from those many lonely hours of silence.

The life of St. Francis of Assis the Italian friar who founded the Franciscan order.
Popular historian and award-winning author Jon M. Sweeney relates the untold story of St. Francis’s friendship with Elias of Cortona, the man who helped him build the Franciscan movement. Sweeney uses the complexities of their relationship in a gripping narrative of how their efforts changed the world and how Elias’s enthusiasm betrayed the ideals of his friend. Few biographies of St. Francis have examined his complicated relationship with close friend Elias of Cortona. In The Enthusiast, award-winning author and historian Jon M. Sweeney delves into this little-known partnership that defined and then almost destroyed Francis’s ideals. Blending history and biography, Sweeney reveals how Francis and Elias rebuilt churches, aided lepers, and entertained as “God’s troubadours” to the delight of everyday people who had grown tired of a remote and tumultuous Church. At the height of their spiritual renaissance, however, Elias became “the devil” to many of the other friars; they believed him to be a traitor to their ideals. After Francis’s premature death, the movement fractured. Scorned by most of the Franciscan leadership, Elias followed a path that would leave him a lonely, broken man. Sweeney shows how Elias’s undoing was rooted in his attempts to honor his old friend. The Enthusiast was the winner of a 2017 Catholic Press Association Book Award: History (Third Place).
Following up on Francis: The Journey and the Dream, Murray Bodo offers a maturing of his own friar's spirituality in this dramatic storytelling of Francis' close connection and relationship with Jesus. Here we see a multi-dimensional, yet internal Francis as the ultimate disciple of Jesus: Francis as sufferer, in the wilderness, as itinerant, as misunderstood, in prayer, as teacher, as lover and protector of the poor, in authority while subject to God's authority, in community, as healer, as wounded.
