Well known for his appearances on TV and radio, as well as for his books Finding Sanctuary and Finding Happiness, Christopher Jamison once again shows his ability to communicate spiritual insights in an accessible way. Finding the Language of Grace: Rediscovering Transcendence focuses on the transcendent experiences of grace that we struggle to talk about in today's very business-like culture. Abbot Christopher shows how the ways we listen and speak, read and write can all be channels of grace. This is illustrated through books as diverse as the medieval legend of the Holy Grail, Silence by Japanese writer Shusaku Endo, the writings of Spanish mystics and the novels of Pulitzer Prize winner Marilynne Robinson. The power and the pain of grace resonate throughout the book, offering a new perspective on healing the loneliness and mistrust experienced by many, as well as on the turbulence and political extremes of today's world. How do we restore trust? How can we listen well? What is the right way to read the signs of the times? And how can we revitalise the language of grace in our day?

Finding Grace with God: A Phenomenological Reading of the Annunciation engages in an interweaving of phenomenology, mystical theology, and feminist philosophy to unfold a theopoetic interpretation of the narrative of the Annunciation in the Gospel of Luke. It begins with a discussion of the foundational phenomenologies of Edmund Husserl and Martin Heidegger and then moves to the more recent work of several French phenomenologists, including Paul Ricoeur, Jean-Louis Chretien, and Michel Henry. The interpretation is then expanded through the philosophies of Luce Irigaray, Jean-Luc Marion, and Jacques Derrida. Finally, the phenomenologies of Maurice Merleau-Ponty and Martin Heidegger provide a means to interpret the Annunciation through theopoetics, as a text that is infused with possibility. Mary, filled with grace, is beckoned by the divine into possibility; responding in grace, she in turn beckons the divine into possibility. Transgressing the limits of language, this possibility slips into apophasis--into a moment of Gelassenheit, a mutual "letting-be" or releasement of Mary and the divine into a mystical union of love, a love that becomes manifest through a gift of life.

Finding Grace in Caregiving arises out of Bradley Hanson's quest for grace in caregiving his wife, Marion, who has Alzheimer's Disease. Hanson knows from long experience that caregiving someone with dementia is very tiring and stressful. In search of spiritual practices that would foster patience and kindness, he turned to Scripture for guidance. The heart of the book is reflection on the qualities that St. Paul calls the fruit of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, and gentleness. Drawing also on his personal interviews with others across the country who care for someone with some form of dementia, Hanson gives caregivers encouragement, guidance, and hope. Those of us who do long-term caring for someone with dementia, whether we are a family member or professional caregiver, generally try to be patient and kind. Yet the stress and fatigue of long-term caregiving may lead us at times to erupt with anger. Since caring for his beloved wife, Marion, since her Alzheimer's diagnosis in 2010, Brad Hanson has looked to what St. Paul calls the fruit of the Spirit in strengthening his kindness.

Sometimes the choices we make in life take us down a path we never intended to travel. Sometimes that path takes us to a place we never wanted to be and holds us there longer than we ever wanted to stay. Grace Thompson knows all about making those choices. Becoming a teenage mother right out of high school was never part of the plan, and marrying a man who turned her dreams into living nightmares was more than enough to leave her broken. Now, years later, having lost her husband in a tragic accident, Grace longs for nothing more than to return home to the Texas ranch where she grew up and the family she left behind. Discovering her best friend, Noah Miller, is once again living at the ranch stirs something deep inside that Grace thought was long buried. Filled with longing for a new beginning, she embarks on a journey that not only brings her home but brings her face-to-face with her past. When Noah Miller left his family and the Amish way of life at the age of eighteen, the Buckner Ranch became his home and the opportunity he craved to build a new life for himself. A friendship with Grace soon developed and took root deep in his heart. He longed for that friendship to grow into something more, but his decision to join the Army put everything on hold. Although Noah can’t change the past, his stubborn heart clings to hope that a future with Grace is possible. Will Noah and Grace get a second chance at love, or will the past come between them in ways neither one could have ever foreseen?

Writings On Grace written by Blaise Pascal and has been published by CUA Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2025 with Religion categories.
A few years before he died in 1662, Blaise Pascal wrote fifteen interconnected essays on grace, which have collectively come to be known as the Écrits sur la grâce. These were not published before his death, and were not polished and revised by him with an eye to publication, which means that they show his mind at work experimentally, trying out lines of argument and engagements with magisterial and patristic texts without resolving them into anything like a final system. The Écrits are replete with experimental formulations and bursts of literary and intellectual energy; taken together, they provide an intense and extreme presentation of Pascal's version of Augustinianism with respect to grace, election, and predestination, the meaning of the Council of Trent, and much else. These essays provide one of the keys to the entirety of Pascal's thought, and they provide a view of grace's workings ? perhaps better, a grammar of grace ? which still warrants serious attention by Catholic theologians. Less than one-fifth of the Écrits has yet been published in English. This book provides a complete translation, made from the French text provided in Michel Le Guern's edition (1998, 2000) of Pascal's Oeuvres complètes, and annotated to provide full information about Pascal's sources and how he used them. The translation is followed by a substantial interpretive essay in which Pascal's positions and approaches are restated and argued with.

Although the act of preaching may take on various forms, Johan Cilliers ? professor in Homiletics and Liturgy at Stellenbosch University?s Faculty of Theology ? takes a look at preaching as being an event in space and time. Aesthetical-theological concepts such as space and time are innovatively combined with the sensory experiences, like preaching as hearing and as seeing. A Space for Grace truly is an inspiring aesthetic combination of academic reflection, art works and sermons.ÿ

In J. R. R. Tolkiens desire to create a mythology for his homeland, he actually made one for every person, every land, and every age. The Lordof the Rings is a catechism of spiritual warfare cleverly disguised as a fantasy. The struggle against evil that takes place inside its pages is the same one that occurs even now within the soul of each person. As we cannot leave the field of battle until death takes us from it, we should learn as much as we can about how to fight from those who have labored before us. Certainly the Red Book of Westmarch is one source to use. We may not have to sacrifice ourselves as does Gandalf, but we can learn from him and his wise counsels and from the others who he taught. Frodo guides us as well, as he makes his torturous journey to Mount Doom and endures the Rings unceasing temptations. With him, we see that sometimes we overcome our temptations, and at other times they overwhelm us. We also learn, as he and Boromir do, to get back up and start the struggle anew. Sam shows us the height of hope and the depth of devotion. In fact, everyone in the tale, good as well as evil, has something to teach us. Anne Marie Gazzolo hopes that you will find inspiration within to apply to your life.

Catherine Anderson was running for her life with her unborn child. Where could she go next to hide and be safe from her husband? Mitch and his grandfather were well-known in the United States for their ruthlessness in taking over companies and destroying families. Now she was the next target! Catherine knew they had the means to track her down, but a couple of friends had told her about the people at Low Pines Resort and Spa just outside of Rockford on 14 Mile Road. Choosing to hide out at Low Pines seemed the safest hideout until Catherine could locate her half sister in California; then she and her baby would disappear forever. She was told Patrice and Robert Kelley had been missionaries in Venezuela for many years before opening the resort and were known to be of excellent character and gracious people still serving the Lord Jesus in their community. All she had to do was stay in her cabin until she could escape. Plans changed for everyone, including the remaining guests, when a big storm hit the area. The aftermath of the wind and rainstorm added more chaos and trauma when human bones were found on the property out by the highway, making national news. National news just added to Catherine's fear after Walter found the note attached to the front door of the main house. Mitch knew where she was! The safety of the resort was gone. Every person who came on the property sparked fear in Catherine's heart because she knew he was coming for her, but when?
