Beyond The Fairy Tale
$21.99
Haven’t we all seen pictures of cute giraffes, cuddly bears, and Old Man Noah smiling happily as they sail along in the Ark or Jonah depicted relaxing comfortably inside the “whale”? Great descriptions for fairy tales, but not factual! In Beyond the Fairy Tale, Simply Put, you’ll listen to a father’s graphic agony as the Flood waters rise. You’ll dive to the depths with Jonah. You’ll relive Samson’s life as he faces death. You’ll sit with Job through his excruciating suffering. You’ll witness the vile and horrifying death of Jesus Christ upon Calvary’s Cross. But you’ll stand in awe at His empty tomb. Praise God! Beyond the Fairy Tale, Simply Put takes you beyond the world’s trivialized versions of these biblical happenings. Through first-person narration, the reader comes to a better understanding of not only the events themselves, but also the principles behind each happening and how these principles can be applied to our daily lives.

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.
