From Blessing To Blessing
$6.95
For the majority of Catholics, the Catechism of the Catholic Church appears intimidating as a reading experience. Few would consider picking it up as a devotional help or a practical guidebook to their Catholic faith. The CCC is, in reality, a document easily navigated and deeply enriching with the right tools.
The purpose of From Blessing to Blessing: The Catechism as a Journey of Faith is not so much to rehash the content of the CCC it speaks beautifully for itself but to explain its purpose, structure and themes, and so allow its truths to unfold for the reader. The primary approach to the CCC must intend to seek more than an informational read; it calls for a journey, the Christian journey of faith. The Catechism seeks not simply to inform us about Church tenets, but to form us wholly as Catholics. It does not stop at telling us about the faith, but continues deeper, helping to instill faith in us as we come to absorb the beauty of the truth taught by the Catholic Church.
From Blessing to Blessing: The Catechism as a Journey of Faith is designed to:
– enable individual study of the Catechism of the Catholic Church
– support RCIA and other adult faith formation programs
– supplement diaconate or seminary training
– provide a basic foundation for the Pillars: A Journey through the Catechism study program

Choosing Happiness
$5.00In Choosing Happiness, Lizzie talks about some of these obstacles and how she managed to choose happiness. From fighting with friends to college applications and learning how to live on your own, Lizzie offers her own stories and advice on how to handle whatever life throws at you. With social media and celebrities giving us their own examples of what it means to “grow up” and be successful, Lizzie shows us how it’s sometimes better to stand outside the crowd, even if that means we sometimes have to stand alone.
While it’s easy to give up or give in to social pressure, Lizzie shows us how choosing our happiness is better, and how with faith, prayer, friends, a good attitute–and late-night taco runs–you can overcome anything.

Prayer In The Digital Age
$3.00The digital age is an age of information overload. In this noisy, technology-driven world, full of important news and urgent messages, spending silent time in prayer can seem impossible.
In his second book, Matt Swaim brings to light the obstacles to prayer inherent in our digitally-connected culture and explores both the challenges and benefits of living a Christian life in the 21st century. Drawing on the spiritual wisdom of such masters as St. Ignatius of Loyola, St. Therese of Lisieux, and Venerable Pope John Paul II, Swaim provides practical suggestions for learning how to “unplug” and incorporate prayer into one’s daily life.
Delve into how technology truly affects our faith:
In a culture suffering from information overload, what’s the difference between knowing facts about God and actually knowing God?
How does our desire to be entertained interfere with knowing God as He really is, rather than just as we want to perceive Him?
What are the distinctions between employing media and information as tools to aid evangelization and spiritual growth while avoiding a purely consumer approach to the faith?
How can information overload deaden our ability to listen?Add to cart1 in stock

Good Goats : Healing Our Image Of God
$5.00Why is it so important to heal our image of God? It is not so we’ll know what afterlife is like. Rather, it is because we become like the God we adore. We must understand God’s love and grace first and foremost, and in turn we will be able to love other people with grace. Studies have shown that this is true in many aspects of our lives. In marriage, for example, the more a couple experiences God as a lover, the more likely they are to enjoy a wholesome, loving marriage.
