And the Word Became Flesh
Author: Holly Hoffman Thomas
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 153264728X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 81
Book Description
The key to becoming a saint is to actively practice the virtues. How can you practice the virtues if you do not understand the concept of "virtues"? This book is comprised of twelve virtues that will aid you in your quest to become a saint. The three theological virtues (faith, hope, charity) are in Part 1 of this book. Next, you will dive into the four cardinal virtues (prudence, justice, fortitude, temperance). Finally, you will learn about five virtues close to my heart (patience, compassion, perseverance, authenticity, purposefulness). It is my hope that you will find at least one of these virtues tugging at your heart to develop further in your life. Perhaps learning of these virtues will lead you to research other virtues and their meaning to you. In a concise, easy to follow format, each chapter consists of the following elements pertaining to each virtue: ·Definition ·Scripture passages ·Catechism of the Catholic Church references ·A saint that exhibits the virtue ·Real lives, real stories connecting each virtue to another person ·Reflection tying the saint to the other person as he/she strives for that virtue ·Questions to guide you to reflect on each virtue ·Digging deeper where you can ponder Biblical figures and how they practice each virtue ·Closing prayer As you journey through this book, I pray you grow closer to God. Let us stand together to live a virtuous life, countercultural to what the world offers today.

Born To Live
Author: Lisa Allen

Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 247
Book Description
My name is Lisa Allen. Prior to cancer the world seemed dark and full of sorrow. As I traveled down what was thought to be my final path in life I found myself instead on a journey. It was a search for the truth. As I began this search for the truth I began to ask many questions. Was there really a heaven? Was there really a hell? Was God real? Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think that I would find what I found. I found a savior, a physician, a friend, a father, a confidant, a protector, and the compassionate, merciful, loving, healing, helping hand of God. There are many types of cancers in the world today. Each one holds its captive in bondage. The good news is the truth shall one day set them all free. If they search for the truth they will find him. His name is Jesus. He is the way, the truth and the life. Today I am Cancer free and I am free from sin. My family and I now serve God in every aspect of our lives. My purpose in life is to lead others down the road to a life worth living free from every form of bondage that exists. The key is the Bible and when you get down on your knees Jesus opens the door.

This Is Not Your City
Author: Caitlin Horrocks
Publisher: Sarabande Books
ISBN: 1936747251
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 186
Book Description
Eleven women confront dramas both every-day and outlandish in Caitlin Horrocks’ This Is Not Your City. In stories as darkly comic as they are unflinching, people isolated by geography, emotion, or circumstance cut imperfect paths to peace—they have no other choice. A Russian mail-order bride in Finland is rendered silent by her dislocation and loss of language; the mother of a severely disabled boy writes him postcards he'll never read on a cruise ship held hostage by pirates; and an Iowa actuary wanders among the reincarnations of those she's known in her 127 lives. Horrocks’ women find no simple escapes, and their acts of faith and acts of imagination in making do are as shrewd as they are surprising.

Occupied City
Author: David Peace
Publisher: Vintage Crime/Black Lizard
ISBN: 0307276511
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
“An extraordinary and highly original crime novel” (New York Times Book Review) that plunges us into post–World War II Occupied Japan in a Rashomon–like retelling of a mass poisoning (based on an actual event), its aftermath, and the hidden wartime atrocities that led to the crime. “Hugely daring, utterly irresistible, deeply serious and unlike anything I have ever read.”—New York Times Book Review On January 26, 1948, a man identifying himself as a public health official arrives at a bank in Tokyo. There has been an outbreak of dysentery in the neighborhood, he explains, and he has been assigned by Occupation authorities to treat everyone who might have been exposed to the disease. Soon after drinking the medicine he administers, twelve employees are dead, four are unconscious, and the “official” has fled.... Twelve voices tell the story of the murder from different perspectives. One of the victims speaks, for all the victims, from the grave. We read the increasingly mad notes of one of the case detectives, the desperate letters of an American occupier, the testimony of a traumatized survivor. We meet a journalist, a gangster-turned-businessman, an “occult detective,” a Soviet soldier, a well-known painter. Each voice enlarges and deepens the portrait of a city and a people making their way out of a war-induced hell. Occupied City immerses us in an extreme time and place with a brilliantly idiosyncratic, expressionistic, mesmerizing narrative. It is a stunningly audacious work of fiction from a singular writer.
