Meditation has numerous positive benefits on the human body and mind. It can strengthen our immune systems, reduce pain and stress, improve our sleep, and lessen anxiety and depression. But did you know that meditation can also have a positive effect on our soul? Catholic Meditations on Virtues is a simple, easy method for the daily practice of meditation—even children can do it! Ten minutes per day is all that is needed to enjoy the benefits of meditation, including improvements in health and brain function. But the greatest benefit for Catholics, of course, is spiritual, with each daily meditation endorsed by quotations from the Bible. By meditating on a different virtue each day of the month, or by choosing to meditate on the same virtue for as long as desired, you too can experience these health and spiritual benefits. In this way, you will form a stronger bond with Jesus Christ and bring out your potential spiritual talents.

Apparently, when you turn off your phone and other distractions--and follow the St. Ignatius spiritual exercises for 30 days--you'll discover that Jesus delivers some very, very funny lines! In this inspiring catholic book, you will discover: At least that was the 2018 profound experience of the author, a Catholic priest in between assignments. During COVID in 2020, when we were "forced to live like monks", he reflected back on that fork-in-the-road month at a Colorado retreat center. The practice of solitude and silence enabled the author to engage in the Meditations (intellect) and the Contemplations (imagination). Using our imagination and creativity, St. Ignatius urges us to picture ourselves in the Gospel stories. In silence and solitude, the author recalled his calling while reading the meditation on Matthew 4:18-25. At the time, he "had NO desire to be a priest, ever!" Yet he writes that on January 6, 1987, around 10:30 p.m. "my mom blurted out of nowhere, 'I think the Lord is calling you to be a priest.'" He admits, "All of a sudden, I felt a real strong presence of the Holy Spirit, causing me to lose my breath. It almost literally suffocated me." And so much more! This book is a spiritual treasure that demonstrates the profound beauty of a deep relationship with the Lord. Let's not waste any more time! Dive in and start reading!

The Seven Virtues written by Fulton J Sheen and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2023-11-22 with categories.
World-renowned evangelist and New York Times best-selling author Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen presents a collection of engaging sermons, encouraging the reader in the practice of the three theological virtues of faith, hope and charity along with the four cardinal virtues of prudence, temperance, justice and fortitude. During these reflections, Sheen will make a connection between these seven virtues and the Seven Last Words spoken by Jesus from the Cross. While these meditations by Fulton J. Sheen on the Seven Last Words correlated to the seven virtues make no pretence to absoluteness, they do make convenient points of illustrations. TABLE OF CONTENTS PREFACE INTRODUCTION THE FIRST VIRTUE - FORTITUDE - "Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do." THE SECOND VIRTUE - HOPE - "This day thou shalt be with Me in Paradise." THE THIRD VIRTUE - PRUDENCE - "Woman, behold thy son! (Son) Behold thy mother!." THE FOURTH VIRTUE - FAITH - "My God! My God! Why hast Thou hast abandoned Me?" THE FIFTH VIRTUE - TEMPERANCE - I thirst." THE SIXTH VIRTUE - JUSTICE - "It is finished." THE SEVENTH VIRTUE - CHARITY - "Father, into Thy Hands, I commend My Spirit." ABOUT THE AUTHOR This book has one main aim and that is to awaken an appreciation of the Passion of Our Lord and to hopefully incite the practice of virtue. If it does that in but one soul its publication has been justified. Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen was a man for all seasons. Over his lifetime, he spent himself for souls, transforming lives with the clear teaching of the truths of Christ and His Church through his books, his radio addresses, his lectures, his television series, and his many newspaper columns. The topics of this much-sought-after lecturer ranged from the social concerns of the day to matters of faith and morals. With an easy and personable manner, Sheen could strike up a conversation on just about any subject, making numerous friends as well as converts. During the 1930s and '40s, Fulton Sheen was the featured speaker on The Catholic Hour radio broadcast, and millions of listeners heard his radio addresses each week. His topics ranged from politics and the economy to philosophy and man's eternal pursuit of happiness. Along with his weekly radio program, Sheen wrote dozens of books and pamphlets. One can safely say that through his writings, thousands of people changed their perspective about God and the Church. Sheen was quoted as saying, "There are not one hundred people in the United States who hate the Catholic Church, but there are millions who hate what they wrongly perceive the Catholic Church to be." Possessing a burning zeal to dispel the myths about Our Lord and His Church, Sheen gave a series of powerful presentations on Christ's Passion and His seven last words from the Cross. As a Scripture scholar, Archbishop Sheen knew full well the power contained in preaching Christ crucified. With St. Paul, he could say, "For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified" (1 Cor. 2:2). During his last recorded Good Friday address in 1979, Archbishop Sheen spoke of having given this type of reflection on the subject of Christ's seven last words from the Cross "for the fifty-eighth consecutive time." Whether from the young priest in Peoria, Illinois, the university professor in Washington, D.C., or the bishop in New York, Sheen's messages were sure to make an indelible mark on his listeners. Given their importance and the impact they had on society, it seemed appropriate to reintroduce these reflections from 1940 on the seven virtues. God Love You.

320 pages. Filled with the Sayings and Examples of the Saints. Wisdom From the Saints! A Catholic Virtue for each month of the Year Broken down into Daily Doses of Wisdom For you to Think about, Pray About, Meditate About, enriching your Spiritual Life and Becoming a Better Christian Along the Way. Translator's Preface: In presenting this work for the first time in English dress, the translator would take the opportunity of drawing the attention of the devout American reader to one or two peculiarities in its structure, which have already won for it a wide recognition among readers of books of its class in Europe. In the first place, the allotment of separate months to individual virtues agrees well with a practice of self-examination much recommended by many spiritual writers, who advise us to take different virtues in turn as the objects of special effort. Nothing certainly could be better fitted to assist us in the acquisition of a virtue, than these selections from the writings of the most eminent masters of spiritual science, which portray its beauties, declare its necessity, or explain its various degrees and the methods of its attainment. In the second place, the few words of exhortation or instruction, which open the reading for each day, are followed by the best of all commentaries- that of action. A great part of the book is composed of examples, which, while they have the interest of anecdote, furnish at the same time the strongest proofs of the possibility of carrying out in real life, precepts and principles which might otherwise seem too high and heavenly for our every-day existence. In the hope then that these exotic flowers may flourish and blossom in many an American garden, they are offered to the lovers of spiritual excellence and beauty by the translator. The Translator

Passions And Virtue written by Servais Pinckaers and has been published by CUA Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2015 with Philosophy categories.
This book, the last that noted moral theologian Servais Pinckaers, OP, wrote before his death, was conceived as a follow-up to his previous work Plaidoyer pour la vertu (An Appeal for Virtue) (2007) Pinckaers' aim in Passions and Virtue was to show the positive and essential role that our emotions play in the life of virtue. His purpose is part of a larger project of renewing moral theology, a theology too often experienced as an ethics of obligation rather than as a practical guide to living virtuously. To this end, Pinckaers sketches a positive psychology of the passions as found in the biblical tradition, in the writings of the Fathers of the Church, in pagan authors and, especially, in the writings of Saint Thomas Aquinas.
