| Description: |
An Ignatian Spirituality Reader: Volume II expands the vision of the original collection by gathering essays that show how St. Ignatius of Loyola's spirituality continues to shape contemporary life across cultures and professions. Contributors, including theologians, educators, artists, social justice advocates, and voices such as Pope Francis, Arturo Sosa, SJ, Becky Eldredge, Maka Black Elk, and Eileen Burke-Sullivan, reflect on pressing modern issues through an Ignatian lens.
Themes such as reconciliation, ecological responsibility, anti-racism, leadership, and discernment are highlighted, with particular attention to the Universal Apostolic Preferences and the lived experiences of Jesuit and Ignatian collaborators. Both inspirational and practical, the volume invites students, ministers, educators, and spiritual seekers into a transformative journey grounded in Ignatian tradition yet responsive to the needs and challenges of today. |

| Description: |
Dom Andre Louf, OCSO (1929-2010), became a monk at the Cistercian abbey of Mont-des-Cats, in the northwest of France, in 1947. After being elected abbot in 1963, he continue in that position for almost thirty-five years, earning widespread admiration for his preaching and teaching.
Blessed Weakness contains Dom Andre's homilies on the Gospel passages for Year A of the church's three-year liturgical cycle. These homilies reflect Dom Andre's spiritual insights about the wisdom in the teachings of Christ.
The title conveys a favorite theme of Dom Andre's: God's special love for humans in their weakness, manifested in Jesus' leaving behind his glory to become one of us in weakness, living among and ministering to the poor. Contemplative reflection on these Gospel passages and on Dom Andre's insights will provide a path for the reader and hearer to seek a deeper union with God. |

| Description: |
What is the church really for?
This book is about the church's outreach beyond itself, its purpose beyond any benefits for those already its members. It is not about a church looking inwards and worrying about itself, but about a church looking outwards. The local Christian community that we belong to is part of that much bigger, much more exhilarating project of the evolving realm of God.
"This is mission theology at its best - grounded in God's mission, focused not on the church but on its role in working with God for the 'well-being' of all creatures...ecumenically sensitive, honest, and practical at every turn...."
Stephen Bevans, SVD. |

| Description: |
A practical guide for initiation ministers on the appropriate ways to accompany Christians who are already baptized, and who now seek to enter into the Catholic Church.
The Order of Christian Initiation of Adults offers pathways for preparing both unbaptized catechumens entering into the Christian life and validly baptized Christians of other denominations who seek to enter into the Catholic Church. However, there is often confusion about the proper ways of accompanying those who are already baptized and celebrating the sacraments of initiation with them. In Full Communion with Us, Paul Turner provides an in-depth analysis of the pages of the OCIA that concern baptized candidates, with guidance that takes seriously both the liturgical rites and the Catholic Church's ecumenical commitments.
Those who are preparing the formation as well as the liturgical celebrations pertaining to baptized candidates will find this an invaluable resource. |

| Description: |
First John is not immediately thought of as one of the environmentalist texts of the Bible, but Rodolfo Felices Luna's fresh approach to its themes of life and love reveal a rich inheritance for both eco-critical readings of scripture and faithful Christian action for environmental well-being.
Here, Luna explicitly challenges interpretations of First John that only consider the human while ignoring our place in the whole household of creation. He deftly and accessibly takes up Pope Francis's calls for an integral ecology in the life of faith, animating our reading of and living from scripture. |

| Description: |
Wendy Murray reflects on how loss and disappointment can leave us feeling isolated when our plans collapse despite our best efforts. Drawing from her own experiences of divorce and career upheaval, she shares how the Franciscan Way "rooted in Saint Francis of Assisi's principles of poverty, chastity, and obedience" offered an unexpected path to spiritual and personal restoration. Murray shows how these often-misunderstood virtues can reorder our physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual lives toward greater wholeness.
Blending memoir, theology, and practical insight, the book offers hope to those overwhelmed by hopelessness. Murray's message is clear: a broken life is not the end of the story but the beginning of a new one for anyone willing to believe healing is possible. |

| Description: |
While emphasising that Marian devotion is "a treasure of the Church", this document from the Vatican's Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith considers certain Marian titles related to Mary's cooperation in the work of salvation. It addresses certain titles which have caused serious confusion, while encouraging Catholics to come to Mary as "Mother of the Faithful People of God".
Mater Populi Fidelis provides a significant biblical foundation for devotion to Mary, as well as marshalling various contributions from the Fathers, the Doctors of the Church, elements of Eastern tradition, and the thought of recent Popes. |
