"This little volume is affectionately addressed to a large, and I fear an increasing class of persons who, through association, the absence of Christian training, a distorted education, and pernicious reading, have not only become estranged from the specific teachings of the Gospel, but whose moral and religious nature has received such a shock that they only have a vague and undefined faith even in the truths of natural religion underlying Christianity." - From the Introduction, written by Cardinal Gibbons himself The dialogues that form this book take as their starting point the teachings of Bossuet in his Instruction sur le divers etats d'Oraison on the various states of prayer, but they go beyond the analysis of the great 17th century Bishop of Meaux to outline a method of attaining that prayer for the simple presence of God which is an aim requiring special teaching not to be found in conventional guides to

Takes us to the depths in Christ and Mary and ourselves. In studying Christ it would be folly to ignore his Father, folly to ignore His Mother. Nor is either such study merely a mental exercise; there are mind and will and emotions in each.
Sr Margaret Lyons
The Life of Mary Theresa is a model of what a woman can do single handed in a great cause. At age 22 she became lady-in-waiting to the grand Duchess Alice, at the Court of Tuscany. She followed God's will. In 31 years she founded and built up a truly gigantic organization which achieved untold good in the missions of Africa. She traversed most countries of Europe stirring up the people BX4705.M3 B5 wherever she went to devotion to the Foreign Missions, moving many to active labor. The biography of the Foundress appeared in 1928, 6 years after her death. Ms Bielak was 19 in 1904 when she first became acquainted with Mary Theresa's work. In her, we find the virtues of the ancient heroes of sanctity coupled with those of modern times. Her zeal was like that of the Apostles. Her uncle Wlodimir was the head of the Society of Jesus.

Archbishop Martinez was revered by Mexicans and all those who knew him. He was seen as a philosopher, a theologian, a teacher, an educator, a sociologist, a sacred orator, a poet, a director of souls and a humorist. In the Sanctifier he states that love is the essence of the Christian life. It is the charity poured by the Holy Spirit into souls, BT121.M4192 the charity which embodies the perfection of all the virtues. This book highlights an understanding of the universal and indispensable function of Mary Immaculate in the sanctification of souls: a traditional doctrine of the Church. It gives Mary her proper place as universal Mediatrix of the graces of God.
BV230.G82
Considers each separate petition and relates it back to the whole, reveals many layers of meaning in the one prayer that has been given the Christian by God himself.
Shows how the most perfect form of the apostolate is that which gushes forth from the wellsprings of charity, when the apostle, dead BV5082.O753 to self and consumed with zeal for the glory of God, is impelled by the force of his love to spread the kingdom of God on earth.

For readers trying to live a life of faith that's centered on social justice, who are saddened at the state of the union in a world gone mad with war, and greed; Lamott's quirky, funny perspective is a salve for tired souls. Joyful living is our God-given right and responsibility, but it isn't always easy. The spiritually imaginative writing of Edward Hays reveals the true value of living a joyful live in the midst of a notalways joyful world. With deep wisdom, probing insight, and characteristic good humor, Hays leads us on the chase to discover joyful living as God intended. Block helps us see how we can change the existing context of community from one of deficiencies, interests and entitlement to one of possibility, generosity, and gifts. As he explores the nature of community and the dynamics of transformation, Block outlines six conversations that create communal accountability and commitment and describes how we can design physical spaces and structures that will themselves foster a sense of belonging.
