The Sign of the Cross -...

Bert Ghezzi

The sign of the cross finds its roots in the earliest centuries of the Church and is used today by millions of Christians worldwide. But it is all too easy to make this sign in a routine and superficial way at the beginning and end of a prayer, failing to recognize its true significance.  In The Sign of the Cross: Recovering the Power of the Ancient Prayer, Bert Ghezzi reminds us that the sign of the cross is a prayer in itself—one that bears great spiritual power. Ghezzi offers a short history of the sign of the cross and then highlights several key truths to reflect upon as we make this sign. By making the sign of the cross, we open ourselves to God and confess our faith in the Trinity; we renew our Baptism, choosing to live the supernatural life that we received through it; we affirm and declare ourselves as disciples of Christ, and accept and embrace suffering in union with his suffering; we repel the devil, reminding him of the victory of Christ on the cross; and we resist our self-indulgence and tendency toward sin.   The sign of the cross sums up our Christian life and vocation, and calls us to embrace the will of God and to reject everything that is opposed to it. This simple but profound act of faith affirms God’s love for us and opens us up to the spiritual power he wants to release in our lives.

Brokenness - The Secret of...

Zacharias Tanee Fomum

This audiobook is about brokenness. The author presents the natural man whom he opposes to the converted man. Usually, believers encounter serious problems after conversion due to lack of brokenness. 
How do you know that such and such a person is broken or not? Through a study of Jacob's spiritual journey, Z.T. Fomum shows us the marks of the unbroken life as well as those of the broken life, the fundamental factors for experiencing a life of brokenness so as to experience separation from possessions and self. 
When a broken man ministers, he ministers from an overflow, a total gift of himself, and a victory over selfishness and its corollaries. 
Before Jacob was broken, he could only raise one altar to God. After he was broken, he flowed freely to God. 
In reality, brokenness is the secret of spiritual overflow. It is for this reason that this audiobook which tells you about brokenness is highly indispensable.
