It is an approach dedicated to exploring the big questions: "Why am I here?" "Who am I?" "What is the best way to be of use.""A spiritual faith is a more practical way to deal with everyday life than cynicism, toughness, or defensiveness...it daily increases its usefulness and reliability. Spirituality is the way out of misery, the way in to self-knowledge, and the way toward a more fulfilling and effective life." ?From the introductionPraise forThe Book of Practical Faith:"Succinct and salutary . . .

Multnomah Press Your God is too Safe: Finding Passion in a Heart
Book SynopsisHere''s a thoughtful, probing exploration of why Christians get stuck in the place of complacency, dryness, and tedium -- and how to move on to new levels of spiritual passion! Buchanan shows how the majority of Christians begin their spiritual journey with excitement and enthusiasm -- only to get bogged down in a "borderland" -- an in-between space beyond the "old life" but short of the abundant, adventurous existence promised by Jesus. Citing Jonah, he examines the problem of "borderland living" -- where doubt, disappointment, guilt, and wonderlessness keep people in a quagmire of mediocrity -- then offers solutions ... effective ways to get unstuck and move into a bold, unpredictable, exhilarating walk with Christ. Inspired writing!

St Augustine's Press The Conversion of Edith Stein
Book SynopsisOne fateful day Edith Stein took from a friend's bookshelf the autobiography of Saint Teresa of Avila. In it she found the simple truth about human existance. Shortly afterward, she became a Catholic, but her desire to become a Carmelite like Teresa was delayed for some time. Eventually whe entered the convent in Cologne. Because Nazi persecution of Jews, converted or not, she asked to be moved to a convent in the Netherlands. the German armies occupation soon followed. It was from the Carmelite convent of Echt that she was taken in 1942, shipped to Auschwitz and executed. Florent Gaboriau sees Edith Stein's conversion under three aspects: first the conversion of a 'Jew' then the conversion of a 'femenist', finally the conversion of a 'philosopher'. Stein saw her conversion as the fulfillment of herself as Jewish; she saw the uniqueness of woman in the light of faith; she saw her phenomenology as finding its home withn Christian philosophy. One of the most brilliant women of her generation, Stein became a model of sanctity. But her canonization by John Paul II was the occasion for strange reactions. Gaboriau's account of her conversion puts it all into perspective.Table of ContentsPreface Chronology 1. When Edith Stein Converted 'Memories of Youth' 2. The Conversion of a Jewess 'On Woman' 3. The Conversion of a Woman 'On Death, with a reference to Heidegger' 4. The Conversion of a Philosopher 'On Spiritual Discernment' 5. Conversion Extended over Time 'The Interior Life' 6.

St Augustine's Press Spiritual Exercises
Book Synopsis“In giving these meditations, my desire was to explain the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius; I was not attempting to present pious meditations and theological considerations, no matter how useful they may be. I attempted to give these meditations on the Spiritual Exercises the kind of theological foundation that my listeners had the right to expect, without falling into the kind of theological investigations that really have nothing directly to contribute to the purpose of spiritual exercises.” These words are used by the author who is probably the greatest theologian the Catholic Church has produced in recent centuries. He brings his enormous learning and his unequaled theological acumen to bear on what is probably one of the most influential spiritual works of Roman Catholicism. The combination is as fascinating as it is important. The subject matter is, of course, very controversial. Has St. Ignatius anything to say for modern Christians? Jesuits the world over maintain that he has, others suggest that his writing is totally confined to a particular, and unfortunate, period of Church history. Karl Rahner has been compelled to write with a force and simplicity we do not usually associate with him. Here is a compelling series of meditations which take us out of the stodgy surroundings of so much Christian spirituality, and certainly one of Rahner’s greatest works.

Baker Publishing Group A Beautiful Disaster – Finding Hope in the Midst
Book SynopsisInterweaving biblical insights and personal narratives, this eloquently written book shows how God often uses suffering and desert experiences to form us into Christ's image. Marlena Graves shares her experiences of growing up poor in a house plagued by mental illness as a means to explore the forces God uses to shape us into beautiful people in the midst of brokenness. This book offers a window into suffering through the motif of desert spirituality, revealing how God can use our painful experiences to show himself faithful. While no one welcomes suffering, God often uses desert experiences--those we initially despise and wouldn't wish on anyone--to transform us into beautiful souls who better resemble Jesus. Graves shows how God can bring life out of circumstances reeking of death and destruction, whether those circumstances are crises or daily doses of quiet desperation. Readers who have experienced suffering and question God's purpose for it will benefit from this book, as will counselors, pastors, professors, and mentors. It includes a foreword by John Ortberg and Laura Ortberg Turner.Table of ContentsContentsPart 1: This Wilderness Life1. The Way of the Desert and Beautiful Souls2. Who Am I?3.

Sounds True Inc Wisdom from the Celtic World
Book SynopsisFrom a precious oral tradition rooted over 2,500 years in Ireland's past, John O'Donohue's Celtic Wisdom Trilogy brings you this vibrant spiritual legacy, unique in the Western world. A liberating feast of authentic blessings, insights, and teachings, brought to life by this acclaimed poet, teacher, and Catholic scholar. The Celtic Wisdom Trilogy includes three full-length sessions: The Inner Landscape Our bodies are mere outlines of a vast and complex interior world, a landscape of contradiction and mystery. The Inner Landscape explores the themes of self-exile and hardship, and the Celtic way of welcoming paradox and finding precious light in the darkest valleys of our inner terrain. The Divine Imagination Too often we remain distanced from what is truly sacred—the world around us and the divine imagination that created it. Here John O'Donohue immerses us in the greatest miracle of Celtic spirituality, namely its tradition of experiencing the divine as a lyrical, tender, creative force not visible, but always present in all things. The Invisible World The ancient Celts sensed an invisible world around them, the great unknown from which they came and the source of eternal wonder in their lives. Through prayer, O'Donohue teaches, we may enter directly into this secret immensity and escape the psychological prisons we create for ourselves. With prayers, blessings, poetry, and teachings.
