Pilgrim Road : A Benedictine Journey Through Lent (Revised)
$24.95
Revised edition of a classic Lenten devotional guide from Morehouse
* Includes a revised introduction and questions for reflection
In the view of St. Benedict of Nursia, the Lenten journey is an inner pilgrimage with Christ
into the deepest parts of ourselves, to be marked not so much by external observances,
such as fasting and self-denial, as by a deepening of our relationship with God.
Benedictine monk Albert Holtz develops that journey theme through meditations written
during a fifteen-country pilgrimage while on sabbatical. At the heart of each reflection is
the lesson it teaches about our inner spiritual journey. By applying Benedict’s monastic
wisdom to the everyday concerns and aspirations of modern Christians, Pilgrim Road
helps contemporary spiritual seekers travel along and experience the journey of Lent in
the most positive, meaningful, and fruitful manner.
For use as a Lenten devotional by individuals and groups.

Prayer In The Digital Age
$16.99Add to cartThe 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?
