Gods Presence In The Eucharist And In The World
$18.95
“For there is a real danger facing humanity today that lies in the greenhouse gases of sin, and the global warming of unbelief, as well as in the post-humanist negation of man’s being made in the image and likeness of God, and finally in the breakdown of morality, when no one knows or teaches the difference between good and evil any longer.”
– Cardinal Gerhard Muller
Former prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith Cardinal Gerhard Muller guides you on a powerful personal retreat based on one that he has given to hundreds of priests and consecrated religious across the globe. In these life-changing pages, His Eminence will help you grow in union with God personally and find comfort in His love as you learn to discern and place your hope in the Holy Trinity.
Cardinal Muller deftly breaks open Sacred Scripture and the writings of theologians and philosophers in addressing misconceptions about the nature of God and divine revelation. Through his penetrating insights and counsel, you will find the enlightening horizon through which natural reason operates. As you begin to perceive and soak up God’s incarnate love and desire for intimacy with you, you will discover:
*How spiritual exercises are a remedy against feeling lost in a boundless universe
*The difference between authentic mysticism and an ego trip, and what true faith involves
*How to overcome low self-esteem and hopelessness and realize you are chosen by God
*What your response should be to God’s divine touch and His loving care for you
*Why belief in the Real Presence of Christ in the Holy Eucharist is central to our Faith
*The many ways in which God speaks to us in our language and how we should respond
In addition, you will learn the biblical basis for why sacramental grace is offered in person and for the teaching of the Real Presence of Christ in the Blessed Sacrament. You will also see the ways in which the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass connects to the sacrifice of Christ on the Cross, and why it is the most efficacious act we can perform on earth.
His Eminence also discourses on the role of grace and modern-day concerns, such as human dignity; freedom; the roles of bishops, priests, and laity; and how to approach ecumenical efforts. In all, he guides you in how to run the race, fight in the spiritual battle, and, ultimately, relish in your true identity as a child of God.

Lambs Supper : The Mass As Heaven On Earth
$25.00Add to cartBestselling author Scott Hahn sheds new light on the Mass, offering readers a deeper appreciation of the most familiar of Catholic rituals .
Of all things Catholic, there is nothing that is so familiar as the Mass. With its unchanging prayers, the Mass fits Catholics like their favorite clothes. Yet most Catholics sitting in the pews on Sundays fail to see the powerful supernatural drama that enfolds them. Pope John Paul II described the Mass as “Heaven on Earth,” explaining that what “we celebrate on Earth is a mysterious participation in the heavenly liturgy.”
The Lamb’s Supper reveals a long-lost secret of the Church: The early Christians’ key to understanding the mysteries of the Mass was the New Testament Book of Revelation. With its bizarre imagery, its mystic visions of heaven, and its end-of-time prophecies, Revelation mirrors the sacrifice and celebration of the Eucharist.Beautifully written, in clear direct language, bestselling Catholic author Scott Hahn’s new book will help readers see the Mass with new eyes, pray the liturgy with a renewed heart, and enter into the Mass more fully, enthusiastically, intelligently, and powerfully than ever before.

Return Of The Prodigal Son
$17.00Add to cartA chance encounter with a reproduction of Rembrandt’s The Return of the Prodigal Son catapulted Henri Nouwen on a long spiritual adventure. Here he shares the deeply personal and resonant meditation that led him to discover the place within where God has chosen to dwell.
In seizing the inspiration that came to him through Rembrandt’s depiction of the powerful Gospel story, Henri Nouwen probes the several movements of the parable: the younger son’s return, the father’s restoration of sonship, the elder son’s vengefulness, and the father’s compassion. In his reflection on Rembrandt in light of his own life journey, the author evokes a powerful drama of the parable in a rich, capativating way that is sure to reverberate in the hearts of readers. The themes of homecoming, affirmation, and reconciliation will be newly discovered by all who have known loneliness, dejection, jealousy, or anger. The challenge to love as the father and be loved as the son will be seen as the ultimate revelation of the parable known to Christians throughout time, and here represented with a vigor and power fresh for our times.
For all who ask, “Where has my struggle led me?” or for those “on the road” who have had the courage to embark on the journey but seek the illumination of a known way and safe passage, this work will inspire and guide each time it is read.
