In the School of Ignatius: Studious Zeal and Devoted Learning
by S. J. Claude PavurThough very public in one way, a major dimension of Jesuit and Ignatian spirituality has become almost invisible, perhaps because it has not seemed so distinctive or even so spiritual. It is the spirituality of docta pietas (learned devotion) or of a “teaching that is holy, devout, righteous, revelatory.” For centuries this spirituality’s great legislative expression within the Society of Jesus has been the 1599 plan of studies known as the Ratio Studiorum. In a series of essays, In the School of Ignatius argues that what lies at the heart of the Ratio remains inescapably foundational for the Jesuit order, as well as for its education and spirituality. These provocative essays are intended for those who wish to learn more about the history of Jesuit education and who share a concern for its future.
Paul VI and the Jesuits: An Intense and Complicated Relationship (1963-78)
by Urbano Valero Agúndez S.J.Now available for the first time in English, Paul VI and the Jesuits is the compelling and previously untold story of the intense and complicated relationship between Pope Paul VI and the Society of Jesus. Written by Fr. Urbano Valero Agúndez, S.J., with critical editing by Thomas McCoog, S.J., this historical reconstruction sheds light on the inner workings of the Society of Jesus during a transformative period in Catholic history. Through meticulous research, Valero has pieced together a well-documented narrative that offers readers a never-before-seen glimpse into the dynamic relationship between the Pope and the Society of Jesus. “This is a major contribution to our understanding of the dynamic of the Holy See and the Society as the Church tried to grapple with what amounted to a cultural revolution in Catholicism in the 1960s and 1970s.” —Oliver P. Rafferty, S.J., Professor of History, Boston College
Transfigured: Patricia Sandoval's Escape from Drugs, Homelessness, and the Back Doors of Planned Parenthood
by Christine Watkins Patricia SandovalThe authors present the true story of Patricia Sandoval's journey from a secure, happy child to an unstable, tormented person who becames a homeless drug addict who had three abortions. It also describes her journey from this disturbed state to a drug-free, productive citizen. and sort-after church and public speaker who has dedicated her life to helping others, especially the unborn. According to Dr. Theresa Burke, "Authors Christine Watkins and Patricia Sandoval do an outstanding job of helping the reader follow each thread of Patricia Sandoval's powerful, moving, tumultuous life, as it twists into knots and circles back to find disconnected threads. Pursued and decorated by God's unrelenting mercy, the frayed and broken web of her story is untangled into a richly textured tapestry, perfectly ordered into His divine will. As Patricia comes close to Him and tries to flee His gaze, the reader will identify with the anxiety of laying down our common human fears to risk crossing the turbulent bridge of trusting God. This book is an adventure of surrender that will give you hope and reshape your ideas about what life is all about." Further, Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone says: "Patricia Sandoval has a truly amazing story, one of sin and suffering, but also of grace and redemption. Above all, it is a reminder of how much God loves us, walks with us even when we stumble, and 'works all things to the good for those who love Him.' This well-written book is always engaging and has something to challenge and inspire each of us, particularly in support of God's littlest ones, the unborn." Not only is this book encapsulated with drama and pathos, the authors give factual information and provide the readers with insightful resources.

The Hotel Neversink
by Adam O'Fallon Price"A gripping, atmospheric, heart-breaking, almost-ghost story. Not since Stephen King's Overlook has a hotel hiding a secret been brought to such vivid life." —Lydia Kiesling, author of The Golden State Thirty-one years after workers first broke ground, the magnificent Hotel Neversink in the Catskills finally opens to the public. Then a young boy disappears. This mysterious vanishing—and the ones that follow—will brand the lives of three generations. At the root of it all is Asher Sikorsky, the ambitious and ruthless patriarch whose purchase of the hotel in 1931 set a haunting legacy into motion. His daughter Jeanie sees the Hotel Neversink into its most lucrative era, but also its darkest. Decades later, Asher's grandchildren grapple with the family’s heritage in their own ways: Len fights to keep the failing, dilapidated hotel alive, and Alice sets out to finally uncover the murderer’s identity. Told by an unforgettable chorus of Sikorsky family members—a matriarch, a hotel maid, a traveling comedian, the hotel detective, and many others—The Hotel Neversink is the gripping portrait of a Jewish family in the Catskills over the course of a century. With an unerring eye and with prose both comic and tragic, Adam O’Fallon-Price details one man’s struggle for greatness, no matter the cost, and a long-held family secret that threatens to undo it all.
Divide Me By Zero
by Lara Vapnyar"In her superb and poignant new novel, Lara Vapnyar writes about love and other difficulties with the same passion, wit, and probing intelligence to be found in all her writing. Among its many treasures, Divide Me By Zero contains fascinating explorations of the fraught, tangled nature of both romantic and family relationships, and some of the most affecting scenes of bereavement I have ever read." —Sigrid Nunez, The Friend <P><P>As a young girl, Katya Geller learned from her mother that math was the answer to everything. Now, approaching forty, she finds this wisdom tested: she has lost the love of her life, she is in the middle of a divorce, and has just found out that her mother is dying. Half-mad with grief, Katya turns to the unfinished notes for her mother’s last textbook, hoping to find guidance in mathematical concepts. <P><P>With humor, intelligence, and unfailing honesty, Katya traces back her life’s journey: her childhood in Soviet Russia, her parents’ great love, the death of her father, her mother’s career as a renowned mathematician, and their immigration to the United States. She is, by turns, an adrift newlywed, an ESL teacher in an office occupied by witches and mediums, a restless wife, an accomplished writer, a flailing mother of two, a grieving daughter, and, all the while, a woman in love haunted by a question: how to parse the wild, unfathomable passion she feels through the cool logic of mathematics? <P><P>Award-winning author Lara Vapnyar delivers an unabashedly frank and darkly comic tale of coming-of-age in middle age. Divide Me by Zero is almost unclassifiable—a stylistically original, genre-defying mix of classic Russian novel, American self-help book, Soviet math textbook, sly writing manual, and, at its center, an intense romance that captures the most common misfortune of all: falling in love.

Barack Obama Vs The Black Hebrew Israelites: Introduction To The History And Beliefs Of 1west Hebrew Israelism
by Vocab MaloneIn the Fall of 1981, a 21-year old college student arrived in New York City to attend Columbia University. The student’s name: Barack Obama. In 2016, NetFlix released 'Barry', a film chronicling young Obama’s journey. One scene in 'Barry' shows the man who would later become the President of the United States debating a religious proselytizer on the street. This man was a 'Black Hebrew Israelite'. The Black Hebrew Israelite movement began in 1969 and was headquartered at 1 West 125th St. in Harlem (near Obama's apartment on West 109th between Amsterdam and Columbus). Christian apologist and researcher VOCAB MALONE creatively uses this mini-debate as a launching pad to explore this militant and mysterious sect. The timing is just right, as this faith has been spreading like wildfire in most major city centers across the US. This book fills a void, as there are no major works on 1West Hebrew Israelism. Now a primer exists in 'BARACK OBAMA vs the BLACK HEBREW ISRAELITES' by Vocab Malone.

The Second Coming of the New Age: The Hidden Dangers of Alternative Spirituality in Contemporary America and its Churches
by Steven Bancarz Josh PeckAll across North America, Christian churches have unknowingly encouraged occult beliefs and practices far removed from what the Bible teaches. This unfortunate reality is intrinsically linked to the popularity increase of New Age spirituality in the twenty-first century, and we've been so influenced by its integration into our society that we have become blind to recognizing, and preventing, the effects of this mainstream, pop-culture heresy, even within the walls of God's house. In this imperative and timely book, former New-Agers Josh Peck and Steven Bancarz reveal: * What perverse dealings the authors personally witnessed from their experiences deep within the New Age Movement * Which real and dangerous supernatural force lurks behind the New Age Movement * Facts that reveal how the occult has worked its way into modern, evangelical churches * Connections between New Ageism, fallen angels, extraterrestrials, and the Nephilim * Solid, historical associations between the New Age Movement and Satanism * What false-Christ and false-gospel doctrines are being pushed by New Age teachers * How the central deity of the New Age is a thinly veiled version of Leviathan, the ancient personification of chaos * How quantum physics is being manipulated to promote the New Age agenda * How to reach friends and family lost in the New Age movement * Warning signs and influences of the occult in your life and home, and what to do if you are under spiritual attack Our lives, our relationships, our world, and our churches all depend on our willingness to take action against the deceit of New Age spirituality. The first step toward prevention is knowledge. Now is the time to be informed." This book is both scholarly and personal in which the authors share both their exhaustive knowledge and Christian apologetics with their life' stories hoping to convince their readers of the falseness of the New Age and the legitimacy of the Christian faith. The authors support their arguments with a myriad of the notes throughout the text.

In A Little Me, Amy shares what it was like growing up with achondroplasia dwarfism, how she struggled to overcome obstacles both physical and emotional—navigating the average-size world as a little person, dealing with a serious illness as a young girl, bullying, and issues of body image and unachievable beauty ideals—while learning, as we all must, to accept herself for who she is. Finally allowing herself to be vulnerable enough to open up to others, she learned that it&’s worth risking possible rejection for a chance at genuine relationships. Ultimately, it was Amy&’s faith, as well as the support and encouragement of her community of loving family and good friends, that saw her through the dark times and allowed her to realize her greatest dreams and beyond.

by Delilah“You’re listening to Delilah.” Delilah, the most listened-to woman on American radio, has distinguished herself as the “Queen of Sappy Love Songs” and America’s ultimate romance guru. But Delilah’s life off-air is all the more extraordinary—a life full of trials, forgiveness, faith, and adventure. In One Heart at a Time, Delilah’s heartfelt account of her own story reveals what shaped the voice that 9 million listeners know and love. Today, Delilah is the founder of an NGO called Point Hope, the owner of a 55-acre working farm, and an inductee of the National Radio Hall of Fame. But to achieve this, she often had to pave her own way. Disowned by her father, divorced, and fired from a dozen jobs over the years, Delilah pushed forward through family addiction and devastating loss, through glass ceilings and red tape. Her consistent goal to help those in need took her everywhere from the streets of Philadelphia to refugee camps in Ghana. Along the way, Delilah was blessed by thirteen children—ten of them adopted. Though many of them contend with special needs and the forever effects of a broken foster care system, her children have been able to transform their own remarkable lessons into guiding lights for other kids in need. Just as Delilah has done. One Heart at a Time exposes the real woman behind the microphone. In her easy-going style and characteristic, beloved voice, Delilah tells her deeply moving life story as the series of miracles it is.
