  Good The Messy And The Beautiful

  $15.95

  God draws spouses closer to the Heavenly marriage through the sanctifying power of the Sacrament of Holy Matrimony.

  However, that means it is not always easy, and it certainly is not like what newlyweds may imagine.

  In The Good, the Messy, and the Beautiful: The Joys and Struggles of Real Married Life, Edward and Beth Sri – national marriage speakers – show readers that the struggles of marriage are to be expected and, even more so, they are purifying us to make us saints.

  No marriage is perfect, and neither is the Sri’s. This book is packed full of hilarious and relatable stories from their 20+ years of marriage. From their experience, see helpful tips, mindsets, and reminders of how to live out the beautiful vocation of marriage.

  In good times and in bad, in sickness and in health, God has an incredible vocation for all for spouses. The Good, the Messy, and the Beautiful goes into the nitty-gritty, explaining what to do when reality hits-when the rubber hits the road.

  From discussions about:

  *Miscommunication
  *Healing
  *Intimacy
  *Gifts
  *And more

  You will dive into new depths of the reality of Catholic marriage-from the messy to the beautiful-in this practical, entertaining, and wise book.

  Gift Of Self

  $9.75

  These pages were written by one hand and many hearts … by separated spouses faithful to the sacrament because they are convinced this total gift of self is not an anachronism imposed by the Church to be accepted with patient resignation, but a path of sanctification lived out in the joyous paradox of the Gospel. This book, besides offering numerous points for reflection on the theme of separation, proposes a true and proper path subdivided into stages for groups of people who, living with the suffering of a spouse’s separation, wish to remain faithful to the sacrament of their marriage. Among the many suggested prayers and meditations, one in particular, the renewal of the Yes, has captured the attention of many churches both at home and abroad. The “Marriage Vows Renewal,” included in the last stage, is promulgated by the Pontifical Council of the Family. The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops published a recommendation for the book on their Marriage Resource Center: “The greatest strength of Campanella’s book is her articulation of the vocation of the separated person to live out his or her marriage vows as a particular witness of God’s eternal love for fallen humanity, and the practical path she offers to the realization of this call. Although she does not include personal details of her own situation, it is apparent that Campanella has walked this path herself. This imbues a sense of hope and inspiration to the reader.”
