Saint Bernadette Tetralogy - A Four-Volume Collection of Reflections Prayers Stories & Inspirational Art

Dan Paulos

Sinopse

"It is no small task to write the story of a saint as an autobiography, incorporating the saint's own experiences and words. But Dan Paulos has done this well, with unique empathy, wholesome insight and humor. Both children and adults, reading I, Bernadette, will enjoy as I did, the sunny spirit and sturdy, enduring faith of the little saint of Lourdes, so beloved by Our Lord and by His holy mother, Mary."- VIRGINIA BRODERICKArtist. Liturgical Designer

"Dan Paulos has given us a refreshing new biography of Saint Bernadette of Lourdes, written from a unique first-person point-of-view. Dan's goal of re-introducing Saint Bernadette to a new generation succeeds, for his down-to-earth narrative tells Bernadette's story in a style simple enough for young readers of middle school age, and engaging enough to hold their attention. Older children and adults also will keep turning the pages, for Dan paints an inspiring portrait of this beloved saint and her miraculous encounter with the Blessed Mother."- ANN CAREYAuthor, Sisters in Crisis

"From the first words of the Introduction to the last page of this book we have in I, Bernadette, a most interesting and charming story of the saint... an original concept of the saint telling her own story in her own words. It is an inspirational book that I highly recommend. We have here another treasure from the multi-talented Dan Paulos, one of St. Bernadette's most ardent devotees."JOAN CARROLL CRUZAuthor. The Incorruptibles

"Empathy is a big word, but it says well what Dan Paulos is attempting in his very special biography of Saint Bernadette. Putting oneself in somebody's place, getting under his/her skin, resonating with somebody's feelings, sharing in a person's suffering and joy: all of these are empathy. In our case, we should add "holy empathy." Dan's rendering of Bernadette's portrait is not only highly intuitive, but also deeply moving. It brings to life "holiness" at its best: as divine gift graciously given, graciously received, and generously shared."REV. JOHANN G. ROTEN, S.M.Director, International Marian Research Institute

Understanding Biblical Law -...

Dru Johnson

Southwestern Journal of Theology 2025 Book Award (Honorable Mention, Biblical Reference / Biblical Backgrounds)

We tend to be perplexed by the psalmists who express delight in God's laws. We see biblical law as a long list of rules with harsh punishments, and the more we read the biblical law within modern legal frameworks, the stranger it appears. We are too estranged from its world, aims, and concerns to see its beauty and wisdom.

In Understanding Biblical Law, Dru Johnson
reorients the reader to see biblical law through ancient Israelite eyes. He deconstructs common myths regarding biblical law and shows how it often differs significantly from both modern law and ancient Near Eastern law. Johnson weaves in an ancient murder mystery between chapters to show how ancient Israelites could have reasoned with and through Torah to solve real-life problems. He then demonstrates how we can do the same by discerning biblical law's literary and historical contexts, appreciating its sophisticated wisdom, and distinguishing it from our modern legal notions.

This book is engaging and accessible for undergrads and laypeople but robust enough for seminarians. Johnson demonstrates a skill-based approach for interpreting Old Testament law and uses examples to encourage readers to practice these skills for themselves.

When we enter the biblical world, we see with the psalmists the beauty and sophistication of Israel's laws and discover a rich resource for thinking about the law's theological implications for Hellenistic Judaism, the New Testament, and readers today.

AUTHOR DESCRIPTION
I am practicing astrology from many decades. With my experience knowledge and wisdom I have written many books. I believe in providing best knowledge to all the people across globe. I have seen thousands of horoscope in my life and experienced many events of astrology in past few decades. I welcome each person to enhance their knowledge of astrology by joining me in this divine journey. I am a software engineer and investor by profession and I took astrology as a hobby. But this hobby became my passion when I started decoding the secrets of universe hidden in astrology or jyotish vidya. Our ancient seer possessed divine third eye to decode the universe and written down the astrology in form of scripture I am presenting this divine knowledge in front of entire world. I recommend every body to make the best out of my books. I welcome each person in the world to dip in the ocean of divine and cosmic energy of universe called jyotish. It is also called as light of God. Because knowledge of astrology is directly provided by God to humans in ancient times. The kind of bliss you will feel in this journey will evolve your soul to next stage of spiritualism. This journey will blow your mind and senses and will connect your soul to divine. I definitely believe you will feel bliss with this gyan(knowledge).
