| Title: Called to Life |
| By (author): Fr. Jacques Philippe |
| ISBN10-13: 159417069X : 9781594170690 |
| How do I find fulfillment in life? How do I obtain happiness? Despite a multitude of self-help books in recent years, these eternal questions have become increasingly urgent in todayâ s directionless world.Author Jacques Philippe provides some answers. In his new Christian self-help book, Called to Life, he explains that a complete and fulfilled life is much more assured when we stop trying to chart our own course, when we realize that we are essentially creatures called by God. He goes on to describe where and how these calls take place: the events of life, the Word of God in Scripture, and interior motions of the Holy Spirit. Learning to recognize and follow these calls is what leads to a happy and full life. Called to Life by Fr. Jacques Philippe includes a special section on how to read Sacred Scripture prayerfully (Lectio Divina), making this a timely source of inspiration and guidance following up on the recommendations of Pope Benedict XVI and the 2008 Synod of Bishops on the Word of God. |

| Title: Coached by Paul the Apostle |
| Sub-title: Lessons in Transformation |
| By (author): Fr. Nathan Cromly |
| ISBN10-13: 1594175233 : 9781594175237 |
| St. Paulâ s initial transformation was a dramatic shift from Saul to Paul, from persecutor to believer, from darkness to light. And yet, the scales falling from his eyes was only the beginning: he lived and taught the lesson of transformation for the rest of his life. In his book, Fr. Cromly reveals the universality and timelessness of St. Paulâ s leadership, what can happen if we let Christ transform our lives, and how we can find guidance from this great saint who is, in fact, much like us. Just a few of the lessons we can learn include: Five essential questions that help us engage our God-given freedom into action The forms of inner paralysis that result from giving in to fear and negativity How to follow Christâ s call to love â in whatever state of life we find ourselves in How God meets us where we are broken and weak â and how to be open to it The role of the Holy Spirit in confronting fear and uncertainty St. Paulâ s secret to turning negative circumstances into positive results The redemptive role of the â daily grindâ â and how to use it to glorify God Paul is the one who dares us to be impactful Christians in an often-perilous world, and who shows us how to transform our fears into courage, our rejections into opportunities, our suffering into grace, and our solitude into union with Christ. |

| Title: El obispo del sagrario abandonado |
| By (author): Victoria Schneider |
| ISBN10-13: 1594174865 : 9781594174865 |
Escritos seleccionados de San Manuel González GarcÃa San Manuel se sintió llamado al sacerdocio a la edad de 12 años. Después de su ordenación en 1901, fue enviado a predicar a una iglesia que encontró sucia y abandonada. AllÃ, orando ante un Sagrario cubierto de polvo y telarañas, con los manteles rotos y el aceite goteando en el piso de la lámpara del santuario, decidió dedicar su vida a satisfacer las necesidades de Jesús en el Sagrario. Este Sagrario pobre y abandonado le enseñó al joven sacerdote más sobre el Amor de Jesús que sus años de estudio teológico. Desde ese momento, esta experiencia marcó toda su vida. Se dedicó hasta su muerte a difundir la devoción a la EucaristÃa, proclamando estas palabras que luego elegirÃa como epitafio: â ¡Jesús está aquÃ! ¡Ã l está aquÃ! ¡No lo abandones!â Este santo obispo os ayudará a recibir la Sagrada Comunión con más fervor y a amar más profundamente a Jesús en la Adoración EucarÃstica.

| Title: From Temperament to Character |
| By (author): Alexandre Havard |
| ISBN10-13: 1594173370 : 9781594173370 |
No attempt to practice Virtuous Leadership can succeed without a basic understanding of temperament and character, which, together, constitute human personality. The Virtuous Leadership approach to temperament affirms the legitimate diversity of our physiological and psychological makeup, and proposes that temperament, rightly understood, undergirds the efforts of all persons to flourish and achieve excellence. It recognizes that temperament does not determine goals (much less outcomes), but instead gives shape and color to the efforts of human beings to flourish through mastering the habits of excellence. In doing so, the habits of excellence â the virtues â become second-nature to us, part and parcel of our very selves. And thus, we ascend from temperament to character, and are no longer slaves to our natural inclinations but have achieved self-mastery in true human freedom. |
