Reaching Out For Joy

Amsberry Father John

You are familiar St. Paul's writings, correct? Sometimes one line can become very long and convoluted and even turn almost a whole chapter of a book. He would not get an "A" for grammar. But, in some ways I say, "So what? Big deal. He does not have to be perfect." Some say he wrote in the imperfect manner that he did because he was so full of grace that it was uncontainable and spilling out all over the place. Welling up with grace and words and light and life, St. Paul just filled the page as God rushed forth! And that is the way I would like you to look at this book. It is not perfect but neither am I. This book is about a perfectly loving God coming to save a sinner like me and you. It is about God rushing in with his grace and words and light and life to create this book, however imperfect it might be. So, I pray that God will be uncontainable in you and you will not worry so much about having perfect presentation and grammar in your life. You do not have to have your house in or..

Confessions of St Augustine

$29.99
In stock

Heartfelt, incisive, and timeless, The Confessions of Saint Augustine has captivated readers for more than fifteen hundred years. Retelling the story of his long struggle with faith and ultimate conversion -- the first such spiritual memoir ever recorded -- Saint Augustine traces a story of sin, regret, and redemption that is both deeply personal and, at the same time, universal. Starting with his early life, education, and youthful indiscretions, and following his ascent to influence as a teacher of rhetoric in Hippo, Rome, and Milan, Augustine is brutally honest about his proud and amibitious youth. In time, his early loves grow cold and the luster of wordly success fades, leaving him filled with a sense of inner absence, until a movement toward Christian faith takes hold, eventually leading to conversion and the flourishing of a new life. Philosophically and theologically brilliant, sincere in its feeling, and both grounded in history and strikingly contemporary in its resonance, Th..

Thoughts of the Cure D'ars

The Thoughts of the Curé D’Ars is the most beautiful, simple and inspiring statement of practical Catholic wisdom that most of us will likely ever read. Consisting of short, profound sayings, almost comparable to the Proverbs in the Bible, this little book reflects perfectly its simple but holy author, St. John Vianney. Jean-Marie Baptiste Vianney (1786-1859) was popularly known as the Curé of Ars, or the parish priest of Ars, which is a small farmer’s village north of Lyons, France. Though of poor education, the Curé of Ars was very intelligent and well versed in the Faith. He rose to great sanctity, converted thousands of souls to Christ, became famous throughout the Catholic world, and in 1929 Pope Pius XI proclaimed him the “Patron Saint of Parish Priests” worldwide! This little book is a sample of his sanctity and wisdom. ..
