Celebrating Compassion
Author: Gerard Martin
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1098006674
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 133
Book Description
Celebrating Compassion: A Liberating Spirituality of Forgiving respectfully zeros in on those touchy, sensitive questions confronting us if we've ever been seriously offended and find it difficult to let go and to forgive. Without doubt, the difficult passage to such compassion needs to be couched in solid inviting spirituality. At the same time, for those who genuinely long for mercy but are summarily disregarded, this book equally offers a stanch and supportive catechesis. Gerard Martin writes a compelling, easy to read book on the spiritual gift we all have, that some of us find difficult to give to another, the gift of forgiveness. This is a must-read book if one is struggling with hurts and memories that are affecting their lives. Truly an inspirational and liberating guide that you want to read over and over again. ""Colette Frederick Your book is very good to me because it causes me 'to dig and delve.' In my opinion it is not merely for reading. It calls for reflection and meditation helping us to a better understanding with God. There are 'zingers' on virtually every page. ""John Feit I'm on the second time around on your book and gaining more insights as I go. ""John Feit In Celebrating Compassion, Gerard Martin examines sorrow and forgiveness from every angle, asking all the right questions and probing more deeply into what forgiveness involves than we would usually consider. ""Kay Taylor The author is a pilgrim like anyone else. Knowing the need of compassion, still, he realizes it isn't always easy to forgive another. Unpacked from within the mercy challenge itself, the themes of this book are reflections rising out of extensive, personal inner work, as well as interaction with others. Hopefully, the text speaks for itself.

Domestic Monastery
Author: Ronald Rolheiser
Publisher: Paraclete Press
ISBN: 1640603743
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 82
Book Description
What is a monastery? A monastery is a place set apart—a place to learn the blessings of powerlessness, and that time is not ours but God’s. Our home and our duties can, just like a monastery, teach us those things. The vocation of monastic men and women is to physically withdraw from the world. But the principle is equally valid for those of us who cannot go off to monasteries. Certain vocations offer the same kind of opportunity for contemplation, and provide a desert for reflection. These writings are beautifully presented in a special cloth packaging, hardcover edition. In ten brief and powerful chapters, Fr. Ron explores how the life of the monastery can apply to those who don't live inside the walls of the cloister: Monasticism and Family Life The Domestic Monastery Real Friendship Lessons from the Monastic Cell Ritual for Sustaining Prayer Tensions within Spirituality A Spirituality of Parenting Spirituality and the Seasons of Our Lives The Sacredness of Time Life’s Key Question

Streams of Mercy
Author: Barbara R. Duguid
Publisher: P & R Publishing
ISBN: 9781629953427
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 255
Book Description
Have you taken time lately to consciously taste of God's mercy? This can be difficult, because in order to seek God's mercy we must admit that we need it-and we don't like to admit that we need anything, much less forgiveness! But exposing the specifics of our struggles with sin regularly points us back to the good news of the gospel and our forgiveness through God's grace, it leads to celebration! A helpful addition to the previous collection Prone to Wander, Streams of Mercy provides prayers that confess specific sins in response to scriptural calls to confession and then close with an assurance of our pardon in Christ. Inspired by the Puritan classic The Volley of Vision, these prayers are ideal for use in church services or personal devotions. Book jacket.

Mercy in the City
Author: Kerry Weber
Publisher: Loyola Press
ISBN: 0829438939
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 143
Book Description
When Jesus asked us to feed the hungry, give drink to the thirsty, and visit the imprisoned, he didn’t mean it literally, right? Kerry Weber, a modern, young, single woman in New York City sets out to see if she can practice the Corporal Works of Mercy in an authentic, personal, meaningful manner while maintaining a full, robust, regular life. Weber, a lay Catholic, explores the Works of Mercy in the real world, with a gut-level honesty and transparency that people of urban, country, and suburban locales alike can relate to. Mercy in the City is for anyone who is struggling to live in a meaningful, merciful way amid the pressures of “real life.” For those who feel they are already overscheduled and too busy, for those who assume that they are not “religious enough” to practice the Works of Mercy, for those who worry that they are alone in their efforts to live an authentic life, Mercy in the City proves that by living as people for others, we learn to connect as people of faith.

Book Description
In the Sacrament of Reconciliation, the encounter of the penitent with the mercy of God is one of the most transforming moments in the spiritual life of a Catholic. The ritual itself has changed throughout history, but the purpose of the sacrament has remained the same: to seek the forgiveness of the Lord and to renew one’s efforts to live as a faithful and loving disciple of Jesus Christ. This resource provides pastoral insights for celebrating individual confession, communal Reconciliation services, and non-sacramental penance services with attention given to liturgical ministries, liturgical environment, and evangelization.
