$22.00
See the world more beautifully and deeply, and be present to the God of all creation who is “hidden in plain sight.”
For the first time, Franciscan Lectio offers a new and most inviting “twist” on an ancient practice.Lectio Divina is an ancient method for reading sacred texts, but Dan Riley, OFM shows how it can be applied to all our lives. Our experiences, too, are sacred-if only we will acknowledge their depth and beauty. In Franciscan Lectio, Fr. Dan Riley comes alongside to guide us into our own encounters with God all around us and inspires our spiritual imagination through story, art, poetry, nature, Franciscan mysticism, and scripture, helping us to see that all of life is unitive and sacred.

Lewis again employs his formidable talent for fable and allegory. The writer, in a dream, finds himself in a bus which travels between Hell and Heaven. This is the starting point for an extraordinary meditation upon good and evil which takes issue with William Blake’s The Marriage of Heaven and Hell.

Roxy The Ritzy Camel
$15.99Add to cartBestselling author Anthony DeStefano brings the vain and possession-loving Roxy the camel to life to demonstrate the familiar Bible verse: It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God. Little ones ages three and older will learn that possessions are only things…and definitely NOT the most important things.
Brightly illustrated by Richard Cowdrey and written in engaging, funny rhyme, this storybook follows Roxy’s journey from her waterless home in the desert to a great city of beauty she’s heard about but never seen. Along the way she learns that the only way to attain true happiness is to share–or even give away–what she possesses.
