This incredible though little-known classic of Catholic spirituality presents before the reader the entire school of true Christian holiness and the means and exercises necessary to attain sanctity. As no one shall enter Heaven who is not perfect, then if we wish to attain to that perfection which will gain us entrance to eternal happiness with The Blessed Trinity, with Jesus, with Our Lady, St. Joseph and all the Saints and Angels, we need to start in earnest and with a sure method to correct every aspect of our lives. The Imitation of the Sacred Heart of Jesus by Fr. Peter Arnoudt, S.J. is just such a "sure method" that the soul needs as a guide to perfection. For it begins at the beginning and covers every means at our disposal as Catholics, which we have and which we need to perfect ourselves plus it covers every pitfall that we face in the daunting task of attaining holiness.
'There's a spiritual instinct in us all, and very few people do not at some stage in their lives find themselves praying, in one form or another. Often, it's a crisis that brings us to our knees. But sometimes it's the sheer joy of being alive that makes us want to find someone to thank for our good fortune.'Bishop James JonesAll religions agree on one thing: that to be human is to pray. This new collection of 365 meditations from BBC Radio 4's Prayer for the Day offers insights from across the faiths into happiness, integrity and spiritual wellbeing. The contributors give new perspectives on the challenges of our era, providing welcome opportunities, day by day, for gratitude, hope and joy.

Evagrius Ponticus (345-399 n.Chr.) beschreibt in seiner Schrift de oratione das Gebet als eine innere Haltung. Ausfuhrlich geht er auf die Voraussetzungen des Gebets ein und auch die Bedrohungen, die er als "Damonen" bezeichnet. Durch die Untersuchungen der Autorin werden insbesondere zur Frage nach dem Verfasser von de oratione neue Erkenntnisse gewonnen: Nur eine Grundsubstanz kann Evagrius Ponticus zugeschrieben werden, nicht der gesamte Umfang der 153 Kapitel. Die gedankliche und sprachliche Abhangigkeit von Origenes, Clemens von Alexandrien und Gregor von Nyssa wird herausgearbeitet. Sie erklart auch die philosophische Pragung der theologischen Schrift. Eine deutsche UEbersetzung von de oratione ist beigefugt.
The majority of full-time Christian workers are not missionaries or pastors. They are in the so-called secular workplace. They are teachers, accountants, farmers, factory workers, and store clerks. They are no less called to ministry than their pastors, deacons, or elders, but carrying out that ministry is not easy. With 31 short, easy-to-digest chapters, R. Larry Moyer provides encouragement and inspiration for living out your faith, regardless of where you work. With real-life examples, suggestions for how to pray, and Scripture passages to study, this book will equip any Christian to spread the good news every day.

The Inspirational Classic That Has Sold More Than 250,000 Copies In this 40th anniversary edition of Eric Butterworth's inspiring tour de force, the author shares the greatest discovery of all time: the ability to see the divine within us all. Jesus saw this divine dimension in every human being, and Butterworth reveals this hidden and untapped resource to be a source of limitless abundance. Exploring this "depth potential," Butterworth outlines ways in which we can release the power locked within us for better health, greater confidence, increased success, and inspired openness to let our "light shine" forth for others.
Dr. Billy Graham says in the "Words of Wisdom" foreword, "The Psalms tell us how to get along with God, and the Proverbs tell us how to get along with our fellow man." As has long been Dr. Graham's personal practice, "Words of Wisdom" makes it easy for anyone to read five Psalms and a chapter from Proverbs each day for 31 days. This beautiful LeatherLike gift edition offers a convenient, easy-to-understand, and enjoyable way to discover how these ancient words deliver valuable life principles. King David wrote many of the Psalms, often with the passion of a worshiper and the anxiety of a 21st-century person, while dealing with everyday tensions. His son Solomon, largely known for his wisdom, wrote the wisdom literature of the Proverbs. In these nearly 3,000-year-old sacred writings, we hear the voices and counsel of those who knew God intimately. Let "Words of Wisdom" encourage you with divine hope and affirmation for living the life God has planned for you.

Las ensenanzas y los valores que se manifiestan en la vida y obra de Jesus, representan lo mejor de los valores religiosos, que tienen como finalidad formar, informar, reformar y transformar a la humanidad. Una obra necesaria para quienes quieren entender y disfrutar la figura de Jesus de Nazaret en su entorno historico, social, politico, religioso y espiritual.
