Spanning from the birth of Christianity through the Crusades and
the Protestant Reformation to John XXIII and the Second Vatican
Council, Key Moments in Church History is a brief and accessible
guide to the origins and evolution of the Catholic Church. In this
insightful and informative look at eleven of the most significant
periods in church history, Finley not only helps readers understand
the context and characters of the past, but sheds light on the
current and future Church. The result is a hopeful and
inspirational reading experience that is ideal for personal
reflection or group use.
This is a _back door book_ about faith. In his trademark accessible
and thought-provoking style, Mitch Finley offers us a book that
explores what faith is not, so that we can understand what faith
is. Dispensing with common misconceptions of faith as a way around
suffering, a source of secret knowledge, a security blanket, a
crutch, a way to escape death, an answer to all questions, a
solution to all problems, and an antidote to doubt, Finley helps us
make the most of our finite human language in talking about our
infinite God. Mixing wisdom from Scripture, tradition, and everyday
life with humor and insight, Finley helps us understand faith as a
gift that stretches our minds, helps us learn from suffering,
motivates us to reach out to those in need, and leads us to more
meaningful and joyful living.
Living Scripture captures the essence of each week's Scripture
readings in an easy-to-read, easy-to-use format.
Beginning with a brief explanation of the communion of saints, this
book offers biographies of St. Anthony of Padua and St. Jude and a
history of how devotion to these two saints became popular in the
United States. The heart of the book presents real-life stories of
prayers answered by both these "heavenly helpers."
