| The racial divide is one of the most pervasive and daunting problems the church faces. It hinders our effectiveness as one body of believers. It damages our ability to witness to and serve seekers. Why won't this problem just go away? Because is it a spiritual battle, answer Brenda Salter McNeil and Rick Richardson. Through their experience and study of Scripture, they have come to believe that the problem of racism must be solved through inner change--and community transformation. Only then are we able to work corporately for the kind of global change that's desperately needed. Thus, their book takes up the role of healing prayer and spiritual warfare in bringing about social change. This book challenges each of us to identify the power of evil in the world and to give up our idols for the sake of Christ. |

| Destined to become the classic behind the contemporary revival of devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, Heart of the Redeemer examines the doctrinal roots of the devotion to the Sacred Heart in Scripture and in the Apostolic and Patristic ages; charts its growth and development through the Middle Ages; explains the enormous contribution of Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque; and unfolds the teachings of the Papal Magisterium on the Sacred Heart, including Vatican II and John Paul II. The book also includes photographs illustrating the development of the devotion. Devotion to the Sacred Heart is intimately linked to our response in love to the Eucharistic Christ. It lies at the core of Catholic spiritual life and is the key to effective renewal of individuals, the Church and the world. For those who haven't yet lived this devotion--or who want to understand and live it more fully--they will discover its richness and beauty in Heart of the Redeemer. Years of careful research have produced a one volume synthesis of how the devotion to the Heart of Jesus has developed over the centuries. The result is a moving overview of how the love for Jesus Christ has grown in the hearts of the faithful from Calvary to the present day. " Heart of the Redeemer is a comprehensive and profound study not only of the origins and theology of devotion to the Sacred Heart, but of its contemporary importance as well. For all the good that it will do to foster a love for Christ, which is personal and social, I warmly welcome Heart of the Redeemer , recommending it to clergy and laity alike." " John Cardinal O'Connor , Archbishop of New York " Heart of the Redeemer is an indispensable source book on the history of the devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. I say oindispensable' because it is the only book of its kind. It is not too much to call it a treasury of Catholic wisdom on the Sacred Heart." " Fr. John Hardon, S.J., Author, The Catholic Catechism Timothy T. O'Donnell received his doctorate at the Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas (Angelicum) in Rome. He is Chairman of the Department of Theology at Christendom College. |

| Where golf has traditionally been the common ground to engage with other men and plant seeds of gospel truth, today that common ground is quickly becoming the pastures, backwoods, and underbrush of the hunting field, and the rock-lined banks of the fishing stream. The call of the wild is now starting to bring home more than deer meat and lake trout. This is "fishers of men" stuff all over again. This book is for the dad, the husband, the son, and the big brother who loves the outdoors and everything that goes with it. It's a book any Christian hunter would enjoy, but also as an introduction for anyone who loves the beauty of the outdoors. Inside are real-life dramas from the tree stands and forest floors, coupled with tips and strategies to get the most out of the hunt_as well as deep-woods insights into the Creator of nature and the Hound of the human heart. |
