Augustine's Confessions is arguably the first, and unequivocally the most influential, religious autobiography in the Christian tradition. Augustine (who was a hard-core hedonist before his sudden conversion) writes about faith with the reckless abandon of a lover; his descriptions of friendship are so beautiful they'll bring tears to your eyes; and his tributes to his mother, Monica, cast eternally fresh light on the unofficial authority of women in the early Church. --Michael Joseph Gross

From Library Journal
The latest volume in the series "Augustine for the Twenty-First Century," which will offer the first complete translation of all of Augustine's works into English, adds yet another vision of the Confessions to the many already available. The fourth-century bishop of Hippo in North Africa wrote this extended prayer, the first true autobiography, to confess his sins and God's goodness. It has been a standard of spiritual literature ever since. Boulding (Marked for Life, Abingdon, 1996), a Benedictine nun of Stanbrook Abbey, England, offers us a fine, smooth translation that is a pleasure to read. Hers is also the first English translation to use inclusive language. There is a complete index, which greatly enhances the usefulness of this particular volume. For all readers.?Augustine J. Curley, Newark Abbey, N.J.

Book Description
For Catholics, Brother Lawrence is a little-known voice who lived and taught how to abide in Christ through everyday situations. Men and women who work in business can learn how to practice the presence of Christ. Those who stay at home can walk in the Spirit, even when they are fulfilling mundane tasks. Brother Lawrence (1611-1691) was a monk who was not especially talented in everyday affairs. He was not an intellectual. He simply was a man of faith who pleased God in simple ways. Drawing from his classic devotional on practicing the presence of God, Walking with the Father includes modernized versions of Brother Lawrence's writings, letters written about his teaching from those who knew him, and a brief biography. Join a host of Christians who throughout the ages have grown to know the Lord in a deeper way through Brother Lawrences insights into walking with God moment by moment!

Paperback Our Sunday Visitor
From the Publisher
During the dark and turbulent years preceding World War II, an unknown and largely unschooled Polish nun received an amazing revelation of the boundless mercy of God. Since then, this message about the Divine Mercy has swept the entire world. Despite great opposition, this frail sister never failed to keep her eye on God and her heart attuned to His message for all humanity. Among her many admirers is Pope John Paul II, who has made many pilgrimages to her tomb in Lagiewniki, Poland, near Krakow.
She is Blessed Faustina, the Apostle of Divine Mercy.
From her impoverished childhood through the challenges of religious life to her final fatal illness and death at age thirty-three, Blessed Faustina's piety and personality are presented as the backdrop against which God chose to display His love for all.
In this popular biography of Blessed Faustina, Catherine M. Odell draws on Faustina's diary and many other sources to present the fascinating and inspiring life story of this remarkable young woman whose divinely inspired revelations and mystical experiences have touched thousands of lives and formed the basis for the worldwide Divine Mercy Movement.
A profound message of God's hope and love for our time!

Dark Night of the Soul: A Masterpiece in the Literature of Mysticism by St. John of the Cross Author: Peers, E. Allison (Translator) Cross, St. John of the Silverio Peers, E. Allison Peers, E. Allison ISBN: 0-385-02930-6 LCCN: Dewey: Number: |

Amazon.com
As a Carmelite monk, the 16th-century Spanish mystic St. John of the Cross was well trained in the systematic theology of St. Thomas Aquinas. In Dark Night of the Soul, St. John's sharply organized mind gives clean shape to his mystical belief in a loving Being somewhere outside the realm of feeling, thought, or imagination, who can only be known through love. Dark Night of the Soul describes the process of purgation, first of senses, and then of spirit, that precedes the soul's loving Union with God. To quote from this book would detract from the coiled power of its tightly focused picture of the soul's progress; suffice it to say that there has never been a better book for discouraged Christians. When you cannot understand what or why you believe, but you find yourself unable to abandon faith, look to St. John for help. --Michael Joseph Gross
Book Description
St. John of the Cross has been called "the most sublime of all Spanish mystics," and his spiritual masterwork, Dark Night of the Soul, stands as one of the greatest contributions to the literature of mysticism.

From the Publisher
"Dialogue" is one of American religion's shopworn terms. Although we hear much talk about dialogue, very little of it actually takes place. Religious discourse - especially about politics and public affairs - is increasingly polarized, involving much contestation but little conversation. If truths are to be tested, however, there is no substitute for dialogue. Arising out of conferences sponsored by the Center on Religion and Society in New York City, the Encounter Series presents a diverse group of people - theologians, ethicists, philosophers, and public-policy experts from across the political and religious spectrum - in dialogue on a variety of controversial issues. Each Encounter Series volume includes not only the essays presented at the conference but also a lively narrative of the subsequent discussion, allowing the reader to experience more fully the actual give-and-take of genuine dialogue.
