| Description: |
Saint Carlo Acutis has become one of the most well-known figures of holiness in modern times. For the first time, Carlo's simple and insightful words have been collected into one book where he demonstrates that it is possible even today to live in harmony with the will of God. Carlo's life was a race, fast and brief. He has reached the goal he longed for, and he wants nothing more for us than to join him in heaven.
Carlo said, "Everyone is born as an original, but many people end up dying as photocopies." Unique, unrepeatable, and loved in a singular way by God, each of us is one of a kind. We risk becoming photocopies when we depart from the path Jesus has laid out for us. The truth that Carlo recalled, "God is always with us," is of utmost importance. We must become "intimate friends of Christ." Carlo has given us many words of hope to hold onto as we aspire to pursue holiness as he did. |

| 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: |
O'Neil Van Horn explores how slow, still, and often quiet practices can cultivate hope for ourselves, each other, and our planetary home. With an accessible beauty, he shows how the ordinary things we do, mending, seed-saving, composting, and birding, can become new parables that might help us make hope where it is least felt and most needed.
Meditative, inviting, and prayerful, Van Horn's writing compassionately makes space and time for readers to experience the meaningful practice of hope. |

| Description: |
Catholic Social Teaching is divided into four chapters. The first chapter deals with CST as an organic developing tradition with a pre-history of influential movements and a post-history of diverse responses to the official teachings. The second chapter includes commentaries on the seven themes of CST as identified by the U.S. bishops. The next chapter analyses and comments on the major pastoral letters of the U.S. bishops. The final chapter has a series of meditations on important justice and peace issues including abortion and care for creation; with personal examples and questions to guide reflection.
"Jim Bacik knows both his theological material and his flock. He has not simply written a book about Catholic social teaching; he has written a book that urges readers to reflect for themselves upon that tradition and to do so in the pastoral settings in which they live and work as American Catholics. The theologian and the pastor have both been at work in crafting this brief yet rewarding book."

| Price: |

| Description: |
Christianity, Judaism, and Islam face similar questions and challenges about the continuing role of a foundational revelation that gives rise to a Tradition and traditions and, most importantly, to the sacred Scriptures in their formation and interpretation. A conversation among three experts in Christian, Jewish, and Muslim theology, this book introduces readers to the foundational issues that all three Abrahamic religions face as they examine comparative issues that affect major, monotheistic faiths.
"In our disrupted world of global religions, it has become crucial again for interreligious relations and coexistence between Christians, Jews, and Muslims to understand the idea of God's revelation according to the religious 'other.' This book addresses this question in a direct way that is clarifying and hope-giving at the same time."
--Massimo Faggioli, professor of historical theology, Villanova University |

| Description: |
From John Chrysostom in the fourth century to Teresa of Avila in the sixteenth to William Butler Yeats in the twentieth, this wide-ranging collection is a treasury of writings on prayer from throughout the history of Christianity. Lorraine Kisly has arranged the material according to the great general themes of prayer--such as praise, thanksgiving, repentance, and purification--to make this anthology serve as a course in Christian prayer for anyone, as well as a marvelous companion for the contemplative journey in general.
"If this book is read truly," says Bishop Seraphim Sigrist, in his introduction, "the reader will surely find the beginning of prayer itself, and this is to open another book with no end at all." |
