Thank God Ahead Of Time (Revised)
$21.99Add to cartAppointed by the Vatican as the “External Collaborator to the Relator” for the cause of canonization of Capuchin Father Solanus Casey, the first man born in the United States to be declared “Venerable” by the Catholic Chrurch, Michael Crosby gives us an inspiring and insightful story of one person’s unswerving faith in God’s abiding presence thoughout the universe.
“For Solanus,” Crosby writes, “knowing God demanded a threefold response: apppreciation, love, and service. Solanus wrote that everyone’s ‘purpose as a rational creature is to recognize and to know his Creator, so as to be able, intelligently to love him, confidently to hope in him, and gratefully to server him.'”

Spirituality Of The Beatitudes (Revised)
$24.00Add to cartThe Beatitudes offer a summary of Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount-a succinct summary of his essential teaching. In probing the meaning of these eight verses, Michael Crosby cuts to the heart of Matthew’s Gospel: a spiritual message that is at once personal and deeply social. Crosby posits that Matthew’s Gospel was written for a more affluent church community. As such, his Gospel offers a particularly telling challenge to First-World Christians. To pray in the spirit of the Beatitudes is to answer a radical call to conversion: a journey into God’s Reign of peace, justice, mercy, and renewal.
