Dwelling Places : Words To Live In Every Season
$16.99
With the dawn of each new year, Christians and spiritual seekers vow to seek a deeper, closer relationship with God and grow their spiritual life. Yet like many resolutions, as time passes, so does determination to stay the course. But what if a thriving, active faith were as simple as reading one word a day? Award-winning author Lucinda Secrest McDowell knows that if you spend a few minutes every day turning to God’s Word for wisdom and guidance, your faith can flourish and grow. Through short and inspiring readings, McDowell unpacks a single word-like mercy, beauty, gratitude, or grace-to uncover a biblical blessing or lesson you can act on that very day. Each devotion includes stories and illustrations to foster understanding and ends with a benediction, written as if God were speaking directly to you. Organized into four seasons-fall, Advent, Lent, and summer-these devotions invite you to discover those “dwelling places” that offer the joy of God’s promises and presence. Whether in the midst of busy holiday schedules, holy days, or changing seasons, a deeper faith can be a simple as a single word.

7 Last Words
$18.99Based 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.
