Beschreibung

Winner of a 2025 CMA Book Award from the Catholic Media Association: Design and Production (Honorable Mention).This Lent, allow Sr. Josephine Garrett to be your guide as you explore the interior wilderness of your heart and invite Jesus in to heal you with his love.Have you ever wondered why Jesus went into the wilderness? Some believe it was to reveal his divinity or to restore humanity’s relationship with God. In Wilderness Within, Sr. Josephine Garrett, a mental health counselor and popular speaker, reflects on the belief that Jesus went into the wilderness to rescue us—to rescue us! The Lord does not want us to view the wilderness as something that causes worry, anxiety, or fear. “What if, instead,” Sr. Josephine writes, “we looked at how God has been a faithful provider in the wilderness and trusted that He will do the same for us in the wilderness journey ahead? What if we joyfully take His hand and journey into the wilderness, because when Christ enters there, ‘this opposite place of the garden becomes the place of reconciliation and healing’” (Pope Benedict XVI, Jesus of Nazareth)?In Wilderness Within, Sr. Josephine will guide you through the forty days of Lent to attend to the wilderness of your heart as a place to be explored, restored, and sent on mission by Jesus’s tender love.Week of Ash Wednesday: Enter Lent by recognizing your ability to always begin anew in Christ.Week One: Open your heart to God’s love, allowing yourself to reverence your heart as a gift from your Creator.Week Two: Reflect on the truth that we are created for relationships, and examine the relationships in your life.Week Three: Take an honest look at your limitations, wounds, and sin guided by a spirit of humility and repentance.Week Four: Begin to see how God designed your heart to be rescued by him and grow in your capacity to be healed by him.Week Five: Leave the wilderness of your heart so that you can go on mission—with a heart restored by Christ’s love—to love your neighbor and be a good steward of the gifts and charisms given to you.Holy Week: Follow in Jesus’s footsteps to the Cross and discover how you can love him well through each stage of the Passion and Resurrection.Each day’s content includes brief meditations, specially crafted illustrations, thought-provoking reflection questions, heartfelt prayers curated to uplift your spirit, and ample journaling space for personal revelations and insights. Whether you’re journeying alone or with a group, Wilderness Within is your guide to a beautiful and renewing Lent.Free companion videos featuring Sr. Josephine and a free downloadable leader’s guide are available at avemariapress.com.

    What would you do if you had a second chance at first love? That’s Sally’s dilemma. 
    Sally Lieberman chose to become an Orthodox Jew in her twenties because it was comforting, calming and full of community and family. It didn’t hurt that religious observance brought her to the man of her dreams—her patient, sexy husband, Barry. 
    Ten years in, Sally has everything she ever wanted, a passionate marriage with three children and a best friend she can count on. She loves everything about her chosen life. 
    Until her son is abused at school, and she’s shocked by her husband’s response. That’s when Sally’s first love finds her online and wants her back—something she dreamed about long before she became a religious wife. 
    It would be easy to abandon the community that is abandoning her—but she’s not the same person she was when she first fell in love with John. Sally is caught between two worlds. Can she give up the life she’s built with Barry? 
    Experience the sensory-rich, food-filled Orthodox community of Skokie, Illinois in WOMAN OF VALOR, and step inside Sally Lieberman's loving family along with her often-difficult, yet surprisingly-inspiring way of life—even when everything seems stacked against her. Ask yourself what you would do if you had a second-chance with your first love.

    For the first time ever, love letters consciously written by elders of one geologic epoch to the young of another. 
     
     
     
    Our children's and grandchildren's generation will face a different world, one affected by climate instability, mass uncertainty, and breathtaking extinction. In fact, the next generation will face the reality that human activity is changing the planet from one geological epoch to another. 
     
     
     
    From this vantage point—two generations across two geological epochs facing a fundamentally changing planet—Larry Rasmussen writes to his grandchildren. As a grandfather invested in a green earth and climate justice as well as a scholar of faith-based earth ethics, Rasmussen bridges this gap between generations to write to the future about climate change, global citizenship, democracy, and legacy. In topics ranging from "A Viable Way of Life" and "Democracy" to "Where We've Come From" and "Who We Are Now," Rasmussen explores the large questions of justice, meaning, and faith, encouraging us to speak to and look to the future generation and their future world.
