In 2013, Ayaz Virji left a comfortable job at an East Coast hospital and moved to a town of 1,400 in Minnesota, feeling called to address the shortage of doctors in rural America. But in 2016, this decision was tested when the reliably blue, working-class county swung for Donald Trump. Virji watched in horror as his children faced anti-Muslim remarks at school and some of his most loyal patients began questioning whether he belonged in the community. Virji wanted out. But in 2017, a local pastor invited him to speak at her church....

Disappointment, hope, struggle, love, failure and resilience are everyday themes that occupy our thoughts and constitute our inner monologue. In this book, the writer takes you on a journey of self-reflection. It invites each of us to pause and reflect on the beauty, simplicity and complexity of life. To reconnect with ourselves and nature. And to rediscover ties and pure feelings with our families, friends, and the world around us...

How would a child feel by being blind from birth and never feeling the sensation of sight? How does it feel to hear other people's footsteps or talk and the bird's song but not to be able to see them? It is not magic that we can see. It is by the grace of God. Having faith in God's power to heal also is a blessing from God. This simple children's story enhances gratitude and trust in God's power and healing.

Dr. Richard Alpert, a former Harvard professor and Timothy Leary cohort, was an icon of the hippie, LSD-fueled revolution of the 1960s. Thereafter, on a trip to India - like Clark Kent changing into Superman - he became the much-beloved spiritual teacher Baba Ram Das. His 1970s' iconic book Be Here Now turned on a generation to the deep, non-sectarian spirituality within us all.

Jesus told us to love our neighbor as we love ourselves. We love the idea of it, but many of us are so busy it can be hard to live out. The past few years our culture has become more polarized with division and disrespect. As tragedies and social issues fill the headlines, the church seems to be nearly absent in the conversation. Love Our City presents our problem, how we can overcome it, and solid ways to fulfill our God-given mission.

"Father O'Malley. Is that you?" A pleasant female voice called out behind me. Upon recognizing Sandra Johnson, my heart beat more quickly. I had first noticed Sandra while delivering Mass the second Sunday in my new parish. Each week since then, when I saw her, I tried to view her as only another soul to save. But the image of her ready smile and attractive features invaded my mind many times each day. And I found myself thinking of her as a beautiful woman. I knew my thoughts were inappropriate for a man in my profession.

Peter and Abigail were childhood sweethearts whose parents did not approve of their spending time together, yet allowed it to happen due to their childrens devout ways and promise of innocence until marriage. Many years pass, and their love for each other grows with every passing year. What started out as knowing glances and cute conversations grew into hand-holding and long conversations of commitment and love.

Let’s live a life of love. Let’s reflect on and learn from the lives of saints. The word saint comes from the Latin word sanctus, a translation of the Greek word hagios, which means “holy”. While all of us are capable of holiness, canonization is the church’s official recognition that a particular person displayed an extraordinary degree of holiness, or devotion to God, during his or her time on earth. 

Chester and Mary Travis were Christian & Missionary Alliance missionaries to French Indo-China (today known as Vietnam) between 1925-1975. They experienced an abundant measure of Christ's indwelling and overflowing life. One of the aims of this book is to share the unusual experiences and their unshakable faith in their Lord and Savior. If this book does nothing else but generate and stimulate a continuing prayer vigil for those encountering severe trials behind the "Bamboo Curtain," it will have served well. That is all that Chester and Mary might ask of us.

An incidental and shocking discovery of a cave with tiny unmarked graves shatters the peace of Exton, a small town in upstate N.Y. More horrifying is the forensic analysis that reveals that these young children died needlessly as the result of neglect and abuse at the hands of a religious fundamentalist cult that disavows medical care. Evangelicals and their political action groups come to the defense of the cult and the parents of the dead children setting the stage for the final courtroom clash to come.

Étrange titre qui associe l'amour à la violence révolutionnaire? C'est que l'amour prêché par Jésus ne ressemble pas à un vague sentiment de bien-être: il «révolutionne les vies», dit l'auteur. Il transforme chaque jour, vers plus d'honnêteté envers Dieu, envers les autres et envers soi. Décrire ce changement au quotidien, c'est le défi captivant que relève l'auteur à l'aide de son indéniable talent de conteur africain.
