Stories That Astonish (Student/Study Guide)
$13.99
Written over a hundred years ago, this rich volume of meditations and prayers resonates with the spiritual longings of our own age. It is an invitation to hear the voice of God, to sit quietly in his presence, to allow him to examine our hearts, to experience his love and holiness.
Part One contains meditations on scripture passages focusing on our relationship with God, and the privileges and duties growing out of that relationship. Part Two is a collection of prayers for Private Devotions, Family Worship, and Special Occasions covering a wide range of spiritual needs.
The collection was originally targeted toward young Christians to help them learn the ways of prayer. But many who have been Christians for years are still new to the experience of meditation, contemplation and listening to God. Whether old or young in the faith, Christians will find rich guidance in these meditations and prayers.

7 Last Words
$18.99Add to cartBased on his talks at New York’s St. Patrick’s Cathedral on Good Friday 2015, the New York Times bestselling author and editor at large of America magazine offers a portrait of Jesus, using his last words on the cross to reveal how deeply he understood our predicaments, what it means to be fully human, and why we can turn to Christ completely, in mind, heart, and soul.
Each meditation is dedicated to one of the seven sayings:
*”Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.”
*”Today you will be with me in Paradise.”
*”Woman, this is your son” . . . “This is your mother.”?
*”My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”?
*”I thirst.”?
*”It is finished.”?
*”Father, into your hands I commend my spirit.”With the warmth, wisdom, and grace that infuse his works, Father James Martin explains why Jesus’s crucifixion and death on the cross is an important teaching moment in the Gospels. Jesus’s final statements, words that are deeply cherished by his followers, exemplify the depth of his suffering but also provide a key to his empathy and why we can connect with him so deeply.
