  The Catholic Biblical Theology of the Sacraments series provides readers with a deeper appreciation of God's gifts and call in the sacraments through a renewed encounter with God's Word. In this addition to the series, Michael Barber offers a biblical approach to anointing of the sick, drawing from both the Old and New Testaments. 
   
  This book unpacks the riches of the Scriptures to explain what true healing in Christ involves. In addition, Barber demonstrates how an exegetical approach to the sacrament can advance our understanding of it. Topics include the biblical significance of oil; the relationship of physical healing and spiritual healing, including the forgiveness of sins; sin and death; Christ as the New Adam; the continuation of Jesus's ministry in the church; the power of sacral anointing; Christ's fulfillment of messianic hopes; and participation in Christ's royal, priestly, and prophetic mission. The book is suitable for classroom use and parish ministry. 
   
  Series editors Timothy C. Gray and John Sehorn teach at the Augustine Institute Graduate School of Theology, and Gray is also president of the Augustine Institute.

  III Chronicles

  III Chronicles is my biography. In the Old Testament, I and II Chronicles tell the history of God and His people. III Chronicles is simply a continuing story of God's history in His world with one person, me. I share a most unusual personal encounter and relationship with God and Jesus Christ within the power of the Holy Spirit. It is my hope that others will be inspired to tell of their personal encounters with the Holy Trinity. My life's history tells exactly how much a loving God cared for one small, frightened child. He gave His personal encounter with me that I would know love, comfort and security. I am sure that I am not alone in this because I know a loving God Creator would give the same love, comfort and security to many, many of His children. In later years, God called me into Christian ministry to be a follower of His Son, Jesus and indeed I did. It was and still is an awesome, wondrous and fulfilling walk with Him each moment of every day!

Can God really help when we are overwhelmed with grief? With compassion and biblical wisdom, Paul David Tripp shows us how to think and what to do when death enters our door in CCEFs Grief: Finding Hope Again.  He reminds us that we have a Savior who knows our sorrows, hears our cries, and promises to one day wipe away all tears.

  Read by the author.  
  Adoptive mom, Army wife, and influencer Kendall Mariah shows readers that if you are willing to embrace the uncomfortable friction that comes with leaning into big questions and hard conversations, you'll discover a new way to deepen your faith, find your true purpose, and anchor your identity in Christ. 
  We all know "the formula": make the right friends, go to church every Sunday, choose the right school, marry the right guy, seek the wisdom of God, and the desires of your heart will be met. Being a good Christian girl has its rewards, right? But what if you do everything "right" and something still feels off? 
  Kendall Mariah followed the rules but still ended up experiencing a disconnect between her beliefs and her lived experiences, between her values and what she saw happening in church. She wanted to be authentic and speak her mind but felt the pressure to sit back and be quiet, acting like everything was fine. She began to call the tension between these feelings "soul friction." It led her to start asking questions that sometimes felt uncomfortable and speaking up when it would have felt more comfortable to keep quiet. Along the way she discovered that she wasn't alone in feeling soul friction. 
  In This Little Fire of Mine, Kendall seeks to remind every woman that we shouldn't hide our light but should boldly press into our faith and live with conviction, because a real and vibrant faith is anchored in Jesus and nothing else. As she leans into honest conversations and thoughtful questions, Kendall shareshow doubt can lead to discernment, questions can lead to clarity, and spiritual angst can transform your heart and guide you to a deep inner peace;the important of pursuing an integrated life where our words and actions reflect the full truth of Scripture;why good friction is healthy and can bring people together and reshape families and communities; andwhy it's safe to take your doubt, anger, and fear to Jesus and how it can help you develop a more meaningful relationship with him. 
    
  Kendall urges readers to let the contradictions they feel in life guide their questions and convictions as they find themselves in a beautifully surprising, more intimate relationship with God than they knew was possible.

  Kant Today - A Survey

  Erich Przywara

  In Kant Today: A Survey, Erich Przywara explores the enduring impact of the tensions inherent in Immanuel Kant’s thought on continental philosophy over nearly a century and a half. Drawing parallels to the efforts at synthesis of Thomas Aquinas, Przywara presents Kant as a thinker striving to reconcile disparate currents of contemporary thought. While Aquinas fused neo-Platonic Augustinian philosophy with the neo-Aristotelianism of the Parisian Arts Faculty, Kant sought to harmonize continental idealism with the skepticism and empiricism exemplified by a British thinker like David Hume.   Aquinas’s synthesis maintained coherence due to his reliance on the analogia entis. In contrast, Kant’s synthesis lacked such a unifying principle, leading to the proliferation of philosophical antitheses reverberating throughout nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century Europe. Kant Today chronicles the aftermath of Kant’s tumultuous synthesis and suggests that the resolution may lie in a thinker capable of uniting Augustine’s fervent pursuit of God with Aquinas’s distinctive epistemological equilibrium—namely, John Henry Newman.
