The Two Lives: A Catholic Guide to Living for Time and Eternity - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Discover how to love the life you have while preparing for the life that lasts forever.

We all live two lives simultaneously. One is measured in heartbeats and birthdays—temporal, precious, and passing. The other is invisible, eternal, and immeasurably precious—the life of the soul. Learning to love both rightly is the quiet work of a lifetime.

The Two Lives is a comprehensive Catholic guide to that work. Written with pastoral warmth and theological depth, this 363-page book explores:

• The beauty and fragility of temporal life—our bodies, relationships, work, and emotions
• The hidden riches of spiritual life—the soul, conscience, grace, virtue, and prayer
• The witness of the martyrs—from Thomas Becket to Maximilian Kolbe, and the first millennial saint, St Carlo Acutis—who chose fidelity to the eternal
• The Ten Commandments as guardrails for the soul
• Sacred Scripture as daily bread for the journey
• Practical guidance for living your faith in work, marriage, the single life, family, and citizenship

• Personal spiritual reading
• RCIA and Confirmation preparation
• Small group study
• Anyone seeking meaning in a busy world

• Glossary of Key Terms
• For Further Reading section
• Prayer for the Reader
• Reflection questions for every chapter
