Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Stop playing it safe Too many Christians play it safe, says the author, by settling for surface piety. If we dare go beneath conventionality and our carefully built images that make God nonthreatening, we can reawaken the mystic within each of us and have a direct experience with God. Using the tradition of the mystic emerging from the wasteland, the author helps guide our modern journey into our own inner desert. This psychic wilderness is terrifying yet welcoming, filled with danger and filled with promise; but it is only here that our inner demons can be fought and our souls reborn. We are then renewed as our original selves, fused with God. The author draws from scripture--especially John the Baptist, from Catholic and Orthodox mysticism, from theology, from philosophy, from literature, and from psychology--in particular Joseph Campbell's stages of the spiritual journey. The result is a beautifully written book that explores the prophetic vocation that's the destiny of every Christian. The book shows the way to purification, transformation, and confrontation with God. And because the essence of love is reaching out, the final step in the process of rebirth is to then journey back to the world to reach out in compassion to others. Soul Wilderness is personally challenging yet highly accessible reading, meant for Christians of all denominations, particularly spiritual seekers, those trying to balance contemplation with action, and anyone who meditates. It's also an extraordinary resource for religious and clergy, spiritual directors, retreat directors, and professors and students of spirituality, philosophy, or theology.…

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Written to coincide with the September 2016 canonization of Mother Teresa by Pope Francis, this stirring new biography follows St. Teresa's life from Macedonia to the cloister in India to the streets of Calcutta to worldwide fame and the company of the saints. Readers will be inspired by the remarkable trajectory of her life, and the love of God that propelled it. Each chapter focuses on a different period in her one-of-a-kind life and ministry, beginning with her childhood and family life, her postulancy, novitiate, commitment to the Loreto Sisters, and her twenty years (1928-48) with them in India. Then, author Kerry Walters observes the 1946 turning point in Mother Teresa's life: her sense that God was calling her to dedicate herself to serving the poor of India, her leave-taking of the Loreto Sisters, and struggle for ecclesial approval for a new religious order. He also explores her 1979 Nobel Peace Prize, relationship with John Paul II, and work in the 1980s and 90s with war victims and AIDS patients. One of the most illuminating facets of this new biography is the posthumous revelation that Mother Teresa endured a 50-year dark night of the soul, and how she persevered by realizing that it was a grace that allowed her to live Christ's Passion. Underlying all of the events of her life was the driving force behind her spirituality and ministry: her conviction that as miserable as physical hunger, lovelessness and exile are, their spiritual analogs are even worse--and that both the physical and the spiritual need to be addressed for humans to live as God intends. Readers will leave inspired and strengthened in their own spirituality, with the knowledge that even the holiest among us must work to find a path--and that God's love follows us even into the most challenging of circumstances. …

Hardback. Condición: Good. Everyday life requires courage. From physical challenges to moral and spiritual ones, Profiles in Christian Courage tells the stories of inspiring figures whose lives can encourage us in our own struggles.

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. All of us face the prospect of death it not this day, then one day. But most of us would rather defer that thought indefinitely. Earlier generations of Christians studied classic ars moriendi manuals on the art of dying to help them face and embrace morality. They learned from these books something our own generation is in danger of forgetting: that the manner in which one does very much depends on the manner in which one has lived. Kerry Walters offers a new take on an old theme, exploring the connection between living and dying well by recounting the stories of nine exemplary men and women of our time and the particular virtues they embodied.…

Paperback. Condición: Good. This illuminating discussion of deism in the early American colonies presents an overview of its main tenets, showing how its influence rose swiftly and for a time became a highly controversial subject of debate among the first citizens of our nation. The deists were students of the Enlightenment and took a keen interest in the scientific study of nature. They were thus critical of orthodox Christianity for its superstitious belief in miracles, persecution of dissent, and suppression of independent thought and expression. At the heart of his book are profiles of six rational infidels, most of whom are quite familiar to Americans as founding fathers or colonial patriots: Benjamin Franklin (the ambivalent deist), Thomas Jefferson (a critic of Christian supernaturalism but an admirer of its ethics), Ethan Allen (the rough-edged frontier deist), Thomas Paine (the arch iconoclast and author of The Age of Reason), Elihu Palmer (the tireless crusader for deism and perhaps its most influential proponent), and Philip Freneau (a poet whose popular verses combined deism with early romanticism). This is a fascinating study of America's first culture war, one that in many ways has continued to this day.…
