Let Us Begin
$18.95
It’s no secret we live in a time of confusion, scandal, and chaos. Our response is often despair, hopelessness, or uncertainty of what to do next. The world, however, needs to be repaired; what is broken needs to be rebuilt. Jesus famously asked Saint Francis of Assisi to rebuild his Church. Today, so many Catholics want their lives, families, nation, and Church repaired as well.
Let Us Begin highlights the unmatched witness of Francis on how to repair the brokenness of the human heart as well as to restore a world in need of renewal. As Francis realized more than 800 years ago, personal conversion is the key to renewing our Church and our culture.
Francis accepted God’s invitation to let Christ change his life, and thus he began to live as Christ. He labored to repair what was broken, but he accomplished this tremendous rebuild by being enamored with Christ. Renewal in our age will follow the same path: When we are made into Christ, we change the world.

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.
