Book excerpt: This Lent, we invite you to make a pilgrimage to the cross with seven extraordinary women and men of God. Come and journey with Blessed Sára Salkhaházi through Nazi-occupied Hungary, with Venerable Augustus Tolton through late-nineteenth-century Illinois, with Servant of God Dorothy Day through Depression-era New York, with St. Martín de Porres through seventeenth-century Peru, with St. Óscar Romero through twentieth-century El Salvador on the verge of civil war, with Servant of God Thea Bowman through Civil Rights-era Mississippi, and finally, with Servant of God Julia Greeley through turn-of-the-century Colorado. Each week of Lent is dedicated to one of these exemplars of faith and action, prayer and perseverance. Each day Monday through Saturday follows the same format: a reflection on the life or writings of the saint or Servant of God, a Scripture selection from the day’s mass readings, and two meditative prayer suggestions, one based on the saint or Servant of God’s life, and one based on the Scripture. Each week also highlights an aspect of Catholic Social Teaching that the saint or Servant of God exemplified in their life. On Sundays, we rest in Scripture and sacrament. It’s our prayer this lent that we may be reminded that we are all called to holiness and that there are no unlikely saints.

Book excerpt: "We are so excited to announce that our new devotional on the saints and mental health is here! This pilgrimage will lead you through the lives and writings of six extraordinary saints who struggled with their mental health. It also features Scripture, theology, the Church's pastoral documents on mental health care, and meditative prayer suggestions. It is written by Cameron Bellm (@cameronbellm) and follows the same format as our Lent devotional, No Unlikely Saints. We are also very fortunate to have Sara Alexander, MA, LPC (@saraluanne) on board as our mental health consultant. In addition to offering her expertise on the text, she has written overviews of each condition addressed and a comprehensive mental health resource guide as a starting point for seeking assistance. Come and journey with St. Benedict Labre through scrupulosity, Venerable Rutilio Grande through anxiety, St. Jane Frances de Chantal through depression, St. Edith Stein through suicidal ideation, St. Mark Ji Tianxiang through addiction, and St. Alphonsa Muttathupadathu through PTSD. Their lives make clear that they were not unlikely saints, for there are no unlikely saints. All of us are called by God, and all of us can answer." -- From Brick House in the City website.

Book Synopsis What the Saints Never Said by : Trent Horn

Download or read book What the Saints Never Said written by Trent Horn. This book was released on 2018-03. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "God helps those who help themselves." - The Bible? "Preach the gospel always; when necessary, use words." - St. Francis of Assisi? Sayings like these are such a part of modern pious tradition that we assume they come from the Bible, the mouths of saints, or the pens of famous Christian writers. In What the Saints Never Said, apologist Trent Horn takes over forty of these well-known but dubious sayings and attempts to track them to their true source. In so doing he finds some that are close to what was really said, many that were mis-attributed or twisted beyond their original meaning, and more than a few that were just plain made up! Trent Horn sets the record straight,

Book Synopsis The Saint Makers by : Joe Drape

Download or read book The Saint Makers written by Joe Drape. This book was released on 2020-12-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part biography of a wartime adventurer, part detective story, and part faith journey, this intriguing book from a New York Times journalist and bestselling author takes us inside the modern-day making of a saint. The Saint Makers chronicles the unlikely alliance between Father Hotze and Dr. Andrea Ambrosi, a country priest and a cosmopolitan Italian canon lawyer, as the two piece together the life of a long dead Korean War hero and military chaplain and fashion it into a case for eternal divinity. Joe Drape offers a front row seat to the Catholic Church's saint-making machinery—which, in many ways, has changed little in two thousand years-and examines how, or if, faith and science can co-exist. This rich and unique narrative leads from the plains of Kansas to the opulent halls of the Vatican, through brutal Korean War prison camps, and into the stories of two individuals, Avery Gerleman and Chase Kear, whose lives were threatened by illness and injury and whose family and friends prayed to Father Kapaun, sparking miraculous recoveries in the heart of America. Gerleman is now a nurse, and Kear works as a mechanic in the aerospace industry. Both remain devoted to Father Kapaun, whose opportunity for sainthood relies in their belief and medical charts. At a time when the church has faced severe scandal and damage, and the world is at the mercy of a pandemic, this is an uplifting story about a priest who continues to an example of goodness and faith. Ultimately, The Saint Makers is the story of a journey of faith—for two priests separated by seventy years, for the two young athletes who were miraculously brought back to life with (or without) the intercession of the divine, as well as for readers—and the author—trying to understand and accept what makes a person truly worthy of the Congregation of Saints in the eyes of the Catholic Church.
