| When the American evangelist D. L. Moody spoke in the Metropolitan Tabernacle in October 1892, he recalled an earlier visit twenty-five years previously. He had come four thousand miles, he said, to hear C. H. Spurgeon, but what impressed him most was not the sermon, nor the singing of the great congregation, but Spurgeon?s prayer. Such was his access to God that he seemed to be able to bring down power from heaven. This was the great secret, Moody believed, of Spurgeon?s influence and success. This collection of prayers drawn primarily from Sunday morning services at the Tabernacle will make a similar impression on readers today. In this book we see Spurgeon come into the presence of God with deep reverence, yet with unquestioning child-like confidence, to plead God's promises in Scripture and to revel in the nearness to God into which Christ has brought all who believe. The Pastor in Prayer will inspire those who lead public worship and all Christians with a fresh sense of the privilege of prayer, and a renewed desire to ?come boldly to the throne of grace?, there to ?obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need? (Heb. 4:16). |

| The highly esteemed Catholic convert, writer and apologist Ronald Knox, a master of the English language, was well regarded for his gifts both of writing and preaching. This volume combines both skills as it is a collection of his homilies on all the important themes of the spiritual and moral life, and on his favorite saints, men and women of history who were "inflamed with the love of Christ". In his always descriptive, profound and witty style, Knox covers a very wide variety of pastoral themes for Christian living and growth in spiritual perfection. Themes such as "The Fatherhood of God", "The Sermon on the Mount", "The Gifts of God", "The Triumph of Suffering", "The Divine Sacrifice", and dozens more. In his "occasional" sermons on saints and Christian heroes, he shows how these heroes of history struggled with many of the same spiritual battles that modern believers encounter daily, and overcame them with faith, courage, character and virtue. These are the shining witnesses of the truth and charity we all seek to emulate. This is a deluxe volume, beautifully printed and bound on Bible paper with a faux-leather hard cover. “Ronald Knox was the most original and eloquent writer of the century." "Fr. George Rutler, Author, A Crisis of Saints “Knox, the most learned, influential priest convert in the England of his time, brings his keen intellect and penetrating spirited insights to his new Catholic home with a breathtaking forcefulness." "Fr. Charles Connor, Author, Classic Catholic Converts |

| The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith was the first Congregation to be reformed by Paul VI-through motu proprio of December 7, 1965, the last day the 2nd Vatican Council. The reform confirmed its task to "watch over the doctrine of faith and morals throughout the whole Catholic world." 'The disciplinary actions which this may require are, in the motu proprio , coupled with a positive mandate: "to promote sound doctrine so that by correcting errors and leading those who have gone astray back to the right path, preachers of the Gospel will be given new strength". 'Since Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger was appointed prefect of the Congregation in November, 1981, the documents issued by him, with the approval of the Pope, have been models of clarity and cogency-sure guidelines in an often confused world, major elements of the official teaching Church who speaks in the name of Christ her spouse. '... And the Truth Will Make You Free presents these documents in pamphlet form as a service to the faithful and to all men and women of good will. |
