Mission Of Merit
$15.99
Mable looked at her closely. “Where were you born, if not Canada? Your English is perfect.”
Heat rose in Mary’s cheeks. “I was born in Chengtu, Szechwan, China.”
And so began the sharing of Mary Sibley’s life story and her exploration of a foundational question. Was it worth the cost of all the dedication, and even the very lives, of the missionaries, doctors, and nurses who strove to bring the Word to inland China?
And after Mary’s parents returned to the mission field from furlough in Canada without her, how did she cope as a fourteen-year-old left alone in a faraway country? China had at one time been an all-new adventure for her Canadian-born parents, but to Mary, China was all she had ever known. Canada was the strange country.

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.
