  Lose your life to save it… The first will be last… The meek will inherit the earth… Many of Jesus' claims clashed with common sense and turned logic on its head. But these are the very things that are so compelling about following him—the very things that can change the entire trajectory of your life. 
  Lee Strobel—author of the bestselling book The Case for Christ—burrows deep into the wildest claims of the Bible about life with God: how we can grow in virtue, relate to others with authenticity, earn a living with integrity, and make a difference even in the midst of a culture that's unraveling at the seams. 
  Starting with the incredible freedom found in forgiving your enemies, you’ll encounter thirteen counter-cultural, seemingly contradictory beliefs that even many Christians find difficult to wrap their minds around—claims such as:A dose of doubt may strengthen your faith.God has a cure for your secret loneliness.You can make a difference that will last for eternity.Playing it safe is the most dangerous way to live. 
  God's Outrageous Claims will not only challenge your existing presuppositions, this book offers a fresh, enlightening perspective on a purposeful and fulfilling life journey guided by God's teachings. A profound read for both believers and skeptics alike

  Is your spiritual imagination up to the task of following Jesus's vision for healing our broken world? 
   
   
   
  "Gradually, very gradually, we saw the great mountain sides and glaciers . . . until far higher in the sky than imagination had dared suggest the white summit of Everest appeared." —George Mallory, 1924 Everest climbing expedition leader 
   
   
   
  The Jesus Climb crafts George Mallory's quest to climb the world's tallest mountain into a parable illustrating how Jesus trained his first students to summit the world's greatest commandment. Like Mallory peering too low on the horizon to see Everest's peak towering above him, the lack of Christlikeness in modern Christianity stems from our inability to imagine the impossible heights to which Jesus calls us. 
   
   
   
  The Jesus Climb draws upon the life and teachings of Jesus and the experiences of some of history's greatest spiritual and physical mountaineers to map out eight "expedition camps" through which Jesus guides every student seeking to follow him. 
   
   
   
  We will never be able to join Jesus in his mission to heal our broken world until he transformed us into the kind of people who can love God and neighbor as he did—the kind of people he called "disciples."

  Peter doesn’t need mothered… 
  After his mom suffers a brain injury and his dad walks away, Peter Stafford, his big sister Star, and their broken mother move to a small town to live with Pete’s grandmother. While Star fights the changes every step of the way, Peter wants to make this work, but what do you do when your mom thinks like a ten-year-old? 
  Wendy Pickens knows she mothers people. Smothers people. Her younger sister and everyone else point that out all the time. But how can she stop being who she is? When she finds a new guy hiding in the park one morning, all those maternal feelings get going, and not with the best results. Why would God send her Pete, who doesn't think he needs even one mother, let alone two? Does God not know her at all? 
  But their issues are their strengths, and his loss and her smothering might lead them to rescue one another and a few other lost souls along the way. 
  Part of the Snack Cake Chronicles young adult novel series, Pete and the Water Tower is a Christian teen read that's just as appealing to adults. Read them in any order, tales about growing up, growing in faith, and learning to love.

  The ''Little Way'' of Spiritual...

  St. Thérèse’s Way of Trust and Love 
  "Here, then, is a way which, without giving to everyone assurance of reaching the heights to which God has led Thérèse, is not only possible but easy for all. As St Augustine remarks, not everyone can preach and perform great works, but who is there that cannot pray, humble himself, and love?" — Pope Pius XI. 
  Written in 1923, just twenty-six years after St. Thérèse’s death, The “Little Way” of Spiritual Childhood captures the excitement of the church's and eventually the world’s discovery of the “Little Way.” This spirituality that anyone can practice is founded in the Gospel’s call to “abandon oneself like a child in the arms of the Good Lord.”  
  Learn the “Little Way” as taught by St. Thérèse of Lisieux: 
  	•Embrace humility as the “loved sight of our lowliness.” 
  	•Live the spirit of poverty by looking to God for all 
  	things. 
  	•Trust in God’s Mercy and Justice. 
  	•Love in the “Little Way.” 
  	•Practice Holy Abandonment to God’s Will. 
  Includes extensive quotations from The Story of a Soul, her letters, and her poetry, as well as the Act of Oblation of Myself as a Victim of Holocaust to Merciful Love.

  Never Too Late To Love - Our...

  "This book on Prayer, written by David Torkington, is a precious help for all who seriously desire to pray in a godly manner and to live a life of grace-filled supernatural union with God. This book does not whitewash the evidence of the real historical situation in which Catholics are currently living, and this is its merit and honest advantage. The following assertions of the author represent, in my opinion, the gist of his work: "Before Catholic tradition used the wisdom of God to change the world, but now the wisdom of the world is being used to change Catholic tradition. In this new world order there is only egality and fraternity for those who have rejected all laws, all standards, all morals and manners that once made human society possible. The rest are consigned to oblivion or modern versions of the guillotine. Unless in this, the final moments of 'injury time' the love that endlessly flows from the Sacred Heart of the Queen of heaven is received, welcomed, and assimilated, then disaster is awaiting." The core message of this book affirms that the true renewal, the true gift of Pentecost consists in the following: being God-centred, prayer-centred according to the model of the Immaculate Heart of Mary and possessing the richness of an interior life through prayer, sacrifice and love. This alone will make all pastoral activities bear lasting fruit and provide us here on earth through Our Lady's sublime teaching on prayer a foretaste of the eternal beatitude in God. I believe that this book will bring great spiritual good for the readers, for which we are grateful to David Torkington." Athanasius Schneider, Auxiliary Bishop of the Archdiocese of Saint Mary in Astana
