| Description: |
Christopher Chapman explores the nature of hope and offers ways to cultivate and embody it. Avoiding wishful thinking or 'looking on the bright side', he offers a hope rooted in a God whose dynamic, creative breath is always bringing the new into being. This hope is incarnate and redemptive, forever coming along side us to renew what is broken. It is relational, drawing all into a life of giving and receiving.
The door of hope is open and God steps through it with purpose and compassion. Here is a spirituality of hope that engages with what is real and brings about change.
Doorways to Hope invites us to join in the flow of hope and step out in God into all that needs healing. This is a liberating, encouraging book for all who feel powerless in the face of the pain of the world or hemmed in by personal circumstance. |

| Description: |
The journey of aging is different for each of us, but no matter our path, the joys and challenges of getting older give us all
a wonderful opportunity to keep growing emotionally and spiritually.
In this wise book, Janet Schaeffler draws on her own experiences of aging and the insights of many elders to help us all deal with twelve increasingly important needs: to live a life of meaning and purpose; to joyfully pursue love and relationships; to ask and explore questions; to learn and grow and laugh; to navigate change and transition; to cope with losses; to be grateful; to forgive and be forgiven; to give; for spiritual integration; to let go and simplify; and to prepare for dying and death. The journey of aging is a gift for each eldering person, says Schaeffler.
Filled with wise and practical suggestions, Let This Be the Time will help us learn to live and love more fully in our eldering years. |

| Description: |
Catholic tradition asserts that Mary appeared to those in need around the world, after her own death.
In these apparitions, Mary appears as part of the local community in her dress, her skin colour, the language she speaks.
This book shows that wherever Mary appears, she is the same mother who delights in all of God's children and who reaches out in love to draw them to her Son. |

| Description: |
Rembrandt Is in the Wind is an invitation to discover some of the world's most celebrated artists and works and how each of them illuminates something about God, people, and the purpose of life. Part art history, part biblical study, part philosophy, and part analysis of the human experience, this book is nonetheless all story.
From Michelangelo to Vincent van Gogh to Edward Hopper, the lives of the artists in this book illustrate the struggle of living in this world and point to the beauty of the redemption available to us in Christ. Each story is different. Some conclude with resounding triumph while others end in struggle. But all of them raise important questions about humanity's hunger and capacity for glory, and all of them teach us to love and see beauty. |

| Description: |
Throughout her life Marcelle Auclair assiduously studied the writings of Teresa of Avila. She admired in her an essentially "modern" woman: inventive, practical, gallant and intrepid, with tremendous organizational capacities. Her genius permitted her to break through the restrictions of her time.
Madame Auclair decided to re-translate the saint's writings and to write her life. With characteristic determination, she attempted to obtain the seemingly impossible (never done before) authorisation from the Holy See to enter the Carmelite cloisters in Spain and to gather authentic background material for her projected work. The permission was granted. On her return to Paris she gave up all her professional obligations and for two years went into retreat, devoting her entire time to the accomplishment of what is no doubt a most vivid biography of this great saint. |

| Description: |
This glorious little book invites the reader into the practice of visio divina, seeing the world as sacred. The loving eye of Chris's camera shows us the beauty of what is around us, from clothes pegs to sunsets, graffiti to bird flight. As we look, and read, all that is asked of us is that we slow down and notice. In our noticing, we come closer to the love of God for all of creation.
In a world of fear, division, and conflict, it is a timely reminder that grace and beauty are everywhere, if we take time to stop and look. Chris's warm, personal meditations accompany us as we find the courage to live towards love and hope.

| Description: |
Many people would like to learn to pray all over again. Others are not so sure they ought to pray. They want to know whether prayer will help them or whether it will be of any use at all to our world.
This book gives an answer, not in the form of glib instructions, but by introducing the reader to the theology of prayer. It refers again and again to the Bible, especially the Psalms. At the same time, it speaks about personal experiences as well.
This book offers an inviting approach to Christian prayer. Gerhard Lohfink writes in easy-to-read language, answering questions such as:
"To whom do we pray?"
"Does it make any sense to ask for things in prayer?"
"What happens in the Eucharistic Prayer?"
"What is so special about the Psalms?"
"How can I practice Christian meditation?" |
