Paperback. Zustand: Fair. You CAN understand annulment. You just need a little help You never wanted this to happen, but now you're civilly divorced. There's no such thing as Catholic divorce because in God's eyes a valid marriage can never be broken. But sometimes what looks like a marriage from the outside can be fatally flawed from the beginning. Only God can see deeply into the human heart. He knows how human frailty and weakness, and inabilities of some people to enter into marriage freely and fully despite their best attempts. After careful study of such an attempted union, the Church may be able to declare that no valid marriage bond was created. And this book will help you understand the process. Regardless of your situation, the Church is here to help and you don t have to be a priest or canon lawyer to understand the basics. This little book with big help dispels the common myths and misunderstandings about marriage, divorce, and annulments, and is helpful for: - Divorced men and women who are considering if they have grounds for an annulment - Those who need help completing their formal petition for a Decree of Nullity (annulment) - Lay or religious ministers who work with the separated and divorced - Parish priests and deacons involved in divorce ministry - Those who counsel divorced Catholics - Anyone who wants to know more about what the Church really teaches about divorce I was afraid of the annulment process at first, but found it incredibly healing and even freeing. I learned so much about myself and was able to forgive my ex-spouse and ask for forgiveness as well. - Patty I had no idea of what the Church really taught about marriage and divorce. I thought I did, but I was blown away when I learned the truth. Going through the annulment process actually made me hunger to know more of my Catholic faith. - Jim.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. It is often said that living the Gospel is difficult. In reality, it is the easiest thing. It is difficult to live without God, groping aimlessly, alone. It is easier to listen to him, belong to a Christian community, walk with others . . . . It is difficult to be alone, and it is difficult to live as a slave to your particular passions and the pressures and expectations of the world. In contrast, life is made simpler, when we trust in the Word and give ourselves over to Christ. The teaching of Christ is designed for the human heart. His teaching is sensible and it makes us sensible. And so, he whoever practices the teachings of Sermon on the Mount, with the grace of God, will enter into the pathways of the good sense of Jesus. …

Hardback. Zustand: Good. As a kid, I was forced to go to Church every Sunday. In my senior year of high school I gave up faith and religion altogether and embraced being agnostic. I sought the American dream by co-founding a $4.5mil software company and pursued money, fitness, and success, but none of that ever satisfied or gave me peace. One day my business partner, a devout Catholic, asked me how I reconciled my behaviors and beliefs? Through historical research, intellectual honesty and this thing called prayer, I moved from being agnostic, to spiritual, to non-denominational Christian, then, ultimately home to the Catholic Church. Why Be Catholic? is not exactly my journey, but it is the Journey of the Church. This book will help you make sense of the logical and historical realities that reveal how and why the Catholic Church is who She says She is. This book will address the questions What Did Jesus Do - give us a Church or Bible; and how can you know? I.…

Some people are just dying for change St. Rita's was a vibrant suburban church whose parishioners liked things on the traditional side: old-fashioned hymns from the choir and no-nonsense preaching from the priests, pious devotions in the chapel and warm pastries in the rectory kitchen. All that ended the day the liturgist arrived. He promised to bring the parish up to date, to get more people to participate, to make the Mass more appealing to the tastes of modern Catholics. But all he did was make enemies; it seems St. Rita's wasn t ready to sing a new church into being quite yet. So when the liturgist turned up dead, under violent and mysterious circumstances, everyone was a suspect Death of a Liturgist features the return of Francesca Bibbo, the irrepressible heroine of Death in the Choir. Join her and the rest of St. Rita's eccentric crew, including Sister Therese, Detective Tony Viscardi, and Ignatius the Hamster (with a little help from the archbishop, too), as they try to solve the mystery and make St. Rita's safe for tradition again.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Flight of Faith Frederick Berretta was an amateur pilot himself, so when U.S. Airways Flight 1549 struck a flock of geese and lost both engines, minutes after takeoff from La Guardia Airport on that fateful afternoon of January 15, 2009, he knew before most of his fellow passengers that something was seriously wrong. As the roar of the jets was silenced and the aircraft ceased to climb, as the pilot guided the powerless plane towards a desperate crash landing in the Hudson River and announced, Brace for impact, Berretta closed his eyes, clutched the prayer book in his pocket, and tried to prepare himself for death. A multitude of thoughts flooded his mind all at once. He reminded himself that the odds of surviving a water landing were slim to none. He thought of his wife and his four children, and how they would miss him. He remembered he had just been to confession and to Mass, and he wondered if his soul would be ready to meet the Lord. And he knew he had to pray. God, please be merciful to us, for the sake of your Son, he whispered. Please spare us. I trust in you. Jesus, I trust in you. Mother of God, please pray for us. At that very instant, Berretta felt a push or nudge on his conscience; a state of awareness he'd never before experienced; and a keen realization that he had to do something. But what? Then God's voice sounded strong and clear in the depths of his soul: Are you going to accept My will for your life.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Some of the most important and necessary building blocks of human life are so often taken for granted: water, air, fire, food. We live each day without any sense of gratitude for these blessings that sustain our physical life. And so it is for our spiritual life. The sacraments are the very lifeblood of our soul, yet in the midst of our busy lives, we can fail to understand their power and importance. Without them, we are spiritually dead. With them, the very life of God runs through us. In this new book from Fr. Matthew Kauth, the Church's seven sacraments are presented in such a way that no reader will ever again take them for granted. Fr. Kauth brilliantly illuminates not only the scriptural foundation and profound spiritual realities of each sacrament but also the necessity of each as a means to living a happy and fulfilled life that leads to heaven. Highlights include: * How the sacraments are anchored in the life and death of Jesus and are the medium through which he pours his life into our souls. * Discovering the purpose, meaning, and symbolism behind the matter of the sacraments: water, bread, oil, wine. * Understanding how Christ administers his sacraments through human hands and what our own role is in receiving them. * How Mary's strength and fortitude, attributes we don't normally attribute to her, are a model for Confirmation. * An expert dissection of the instrumentality, effects, elements, character, and fruits of each sacrament. * How the sacrament of marriage reaches all the way back to Genesis but finds its full meaning in the passion of Jesus.   Christ told us, "Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." Stop searching for the treasures of this world that only leave your heart empty, but instead, welcome the treasures he is waiting to give you. the treasures of his divine life. &nbsp.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. In the United States and around the world, women and girls are told they need legal access to abortion to be successful and liberated. Everywhere they turn, today's youth are bombarded with the pervasive message that abortion is normal, healthy, and even good. These dangerous lies are exposed for what they are in Everything You Need to Know About Abortion - For Teens. Janet Morana, a thirty-year veteran of the pro-life movement, with a direct but compassionate tone, introduces readers to the unborn child and to the brutal methods used to kill this most innocent victim. Her impactful and practical message, forged and sharpened through decades of meticulous research and passionate service on the frontlines, conveys some of the most important but often overlooked truths about this issue that defines our times, including: a detailed look at the development of the unborn baby, showing how science makes evident the humanity of these children;the risks of taking contraception that pharmaceutical giants try to hide;a sweeping historical review of the legal battle over abortion in the United States and the dishonest tactics used by pro-abortion activists and lawyers;the hijacking of language and weaponization of euphemisms to confuse young women;the harmful psychological effects abortion has on men and women, as well as the physical dangers abortion procedures can have on women; the personal story of Janet's friend, Norma McCorvey (Roe in Roe v. Wade), who became an avid supporter of the pro-life movement late in her life.Perhaps most powerfully, Janet shares heart-wrenching testimonials from women who have made the choice to abort their children, taking readers where few have gone: into the hearts of so many who live with the pain of regret. Built upon the foundation of every child being made in the image of God, Janet appeals to our Christian faith but also just as strongly to human reason, science, legal arguments, and personal testimonies to teach young people about the tragedy of abortion. Still more, she champions the virtue of chastity and shows what power and happiness can flow from a life lived in purity to our vocation. Includes an appendix of pro-life resources and organizations spread throughout the country who fight valiantly against abortion and offer counseling support and healing to women (and men) who have been touched by the tragedy of abortion.…
