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.
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.

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.

Empleando cuarenta dias de historias de la vida real acerca de
milagrosas e inspiradoras respuestas a la oracion, Mark Batterson
usa los principios contenidos en su best seller El hacedor de
circulos para ensenarles a los lectores una nueva manera de orar.
Despues de que sus lectores pronto crecieran de miles a diez miles,
historias milagrosas e inspiradoras de respuestas a oraciones
empezaron a salir a la luz, y asi como se compartian esas
historias, otros se inspiraban en su fe para orar aun con mas
valentia. Estas historias inspiradas, retaran tanto a hombres como
a mujeres a orar y seguir orando como nunca antes al cabo de
cuarenta dias. Una vez que hayan pasado los cuarenta dias, habran
establecido un fuerte habito de oracion, y habran dado comienzo a
toda una vida dedicada a ver obrar a Dios y creer en ese Dios que
es capaz de hacer todas las cosas. En Dibuja el circulo_Devocional,
los lectores descubriran el poder que tienen la oracion audaz, y
una fe mas audaz aun en las promesas de Dios."
For decades, Operation World has been the world's leading resource
for people who want to impact the nations for Christ through
prayer. Its twofold purpose has been to inform for prayer and to
mobilize for mission. Now the research team of Operation World
offers this abridged version of the 7th edition called Pray for the
World as an accessible resource to facilitate prayer for the
nations. The Operation World researchers asked Christian leaders in
every country, "How should the body of Christ throughout the world
be praying for your country?" Their responses provide the prayer
points in this book, with specific ways your prayers can aid the
global church. When you hear a country mentioned in the news, you
can use Pray for the World to pray for it in light of what God is
doing there. Each entry includes: Timely challenges for prayer and
specific on-the-ground reports of answers to prayer Population and
people group statistics Charts and maps of demographic trends
Updates on church growth, with a focus on evangelicals Explanations
of major currents in economics, politics and society Join millions
of praying people around the world. Hear God's call to global
mission. And watch the world change.
"The Goodly Word: Al-Kalim al-Tayyib"-written by the renowned
fourteenth century jurist, Ahmad Ibn Taymiyya-is one of the most
referred to works on prayer and the merits of prayer. Exclusively
based on what the Prophet Muhammad himself said and did, "The
Goodly Word" includes prayers for every moment of the Muslim's
life. It is presented in a bi-lingual edition so that the exact
prayers of the Prophet can be read in the original Arabic. "The
Goodly Word" has been translated into English by the late Ezzeddin
Ibrahim and Denys Johnson-Davies, two distinguished scholars who
have also translated "An-Nawawi's Forty Hadith" and "Forty Hadith
Qudsi", both published by the Islamic Texts Society.
Prayer for the Day brings together 365 selected readings from the
much loved, long-running series on BBC Radio 4. The programme,
which has been broadcast daily at 5:43am for several decades, and
continues to attract over half a million dedicated listeners,
comprises a short 2-minute reflection to start your day. These
artfully combine traditional forms of prayer and reflection, from a
variety of religions and denominations, with contemporary issues
and themes that are often relevant to the date on which the
programme is broadcast. In keeping with the theme of 'Prayer for
the Day', there are 365 reflections in the book, from a vast range
of the eminent religious figures and broadcasters who have
contributed to the programme over the years. There is a foreword by
a prominent figure in the faith community, a short profile of each
contributor and an index of contributors. To emphasise the point
that the reflections can be used daily, they are ordered by date
(i.e. 1st January, 2nd January etc), and each entry is selected on
the basis of it being as date-specific as possible. The date of
broadcast is underneath each entry, and dates are also marked at
the top corners of each page so they can be found easily. The
spacious design includes page openers for each month with simple
line illustrations. Prayer for the Day is a beautiful and
inspirational addition to any bedside table, with religious
meditations that both participate in the ecumenical spirit of the
21st century and equip you perfectly for each day's journey.
