Order Now
$18.95
New by Anthony DeStefano. There have been thousands of books written about prayer and millions of sermons preached about it, yet people continue to wonder: Why doesn't God answer me when I cry out to him? In light of all the problems we face in life, we want to know why God is often so "silent" when we pray to Him. Anthony DeStefano, author of the best selling A Travel Guide to Heaven knew there had to be an answer to this mystery, so he set out on a quest to find prayers that God says yes to all the time. The result is an extraordinary new book that has the ability to dramatically change the lives of readers of all faiths.
Each short, powerful prayer in Ten Prayers God Always Says Yes To addresses a particular problem people commonly face in life - from accepting the existence of God to trying to make ends meet; from getting through terrible suffering to coping with everyday stress; from overcoming fear to finding your God-given destiny. Presented with a certainty and vigor that are sure to pique the interest of even those who are not spiritually inclined, these prayers will help readers find solutions to life's most difficult situations and provide meaningful and inspiring answers to the vexing questions we have about the purpose of our time on earth. |

 The Love That Satisfies
Order Now
$19.95
New by Christopher West. Today, the term “love” has become one of the most frequently used and misused words, a word to which we attach quite different meanings. We speak of love of country, love of one’s profession, love between friends, love of work, love between parents and children, love of neighbor, and love of God. Amid this multiplicity of meaning, however, one in particular stands out: love between man and woman, where body and soul are inseparably joined and human beings glimpse an apparently irresistible promise of happiness. This would seem to be the very epitome of love: all other kinds of love immediately seem to fade in comparison (Deus Caritas Est, n.2).
The Love that Satisfies, by Christopher West, focuses on this last kind of love—the love that promises such happiness but so often leads to despair; the love that seems to be the epitome of all love but which relatively few people find in a measure that satisfies. Why should this be the case? Why is the love between man and woman so attractive and illusive, demanding and rewarding, restrictive and liberating, painful and ecstatic, messy and beautiful, maddening and fulfilling? Our world is saturated with sex but remains starved for love. Why?
By reflecting on key passages from Pope Benedict’s grand encyclical, Deus Caritas Est, this book explores these and many other questions with the goal of pointing all who read it toward the love that satisfies.

Also new by Christopher West - his best selling book Good News About...and Marriage is now available in Spanish: Buena Nueva Sobre...y Matrimonio.

 Mother Teresa - Come Be My Light
Order Now
$22.95
New about Mother Teresa. During her lifelong service to the poorest of the poor, Mother Teresa became an icon of compassion to people of all religions; her extraordinary contributions to the care of the sick, the dying, and thousands of others nobody else was prepared to look after has been recognized and acclaimed throughout the world. Little is known, however, about her own spiritual heights or her struggles. This collection of her writing and reflections, almost all of which have never been made public before, sheds light on Mother Teresa's interior life in a way that reveals the depth and intensity of her holiness for the first time.
This book was compiled and presented by Fr. Brian Kolodiejchuk, M.C., who knew Mother Teresa for twenty years and is the postulator for her cause for sainthood and director of the Mother Teresa Center. It brings together letters she wrote to her spiritual advisors over decades. A moving chronicle of her spiritual journey—including moments, indeed years, of utter desolation—these letters reveal the secrets she shared only with her closest confidants. She emerges as a classic mystic whose inner life burned with the fire of charity and whose heart was tested and purified by an intense trial of faith, a true dark night of the soul.

 Fighting Back - The Life and Death of Flight 93 Hero Tom Burnett
Order Now
$14.95
New tribute to 9-11. In this timely and inspiring book by Deena Burnett, the widow of 9-11 victim and Flight 93 hero, Thomas Burnett, Deena recalls the incredible details of that horrific 9-11 day: the famous four cell phone calls from her husband on that plane, his quick assessment of the alarming situation and his decision to "do something". Burnett became the ringleader of that brave group of men who fought the terrorists and tried to regain control of the plane before its crash in the fields of Pennsylvania. Deena goes on to tell the story of Tom's life, showing how he was an ordinary American who was deeply patriotic, a good athlete, a loving father and devoted husband, successful businessman, a leader among his peers, and a devout Catholic and communicant at daily Mass.
Drawing strength from the memory of Tom's love, courage, and deep faith, Deena tells about all the challenges that happened to her and her young children in the days, months and years after that devastating day, and how she was able to rise from her own darkness to be renewed in purpose and joy again, and compelled by Tom's words to "do something". She shows us how to look at our own lives to make the choices we need to make to be transformed into everyday heroes, thereby changing the world through our daily actions. This is a story of love, suffering, sacrifice and rebirth. |
