Consoling The Heart Of Jesus
Ideal for study groups, adoration chapels, and anyone looking to rejuvenate their spiritual batteries. In the end, only one thing matters: To become a saint. After all, if we don’t reach heaven, everything else is irrelevant, isn’t it? If you’re serious about becoming holy (“saint” comes from the Latin word for “holy”), a powerful way to do this is through a 30-day Ignatian retreat. Now Br. Michael Gaitley gives beginners and those more advanced the ability to make an Ignatian retreat in our own homes in a way that is accessible, relevant and, doable! Always fresh and intriguing, he also incorporates the wisdom of such saints as Therese of Lisieux, Faustina Kowalska, and Louis de Montfort. From Fr. Mitch Pacwa, SJ, to Faith & Family magazine, everyone has been effusive in their praise of this incredible work.

We must understand God’s love and grace first and foremost, and in turn we will be able to love other people with grace. Studies have shown that this is true in many aspects of our lives.

Roxy The Ritzy Camel
Read moreBestselling author Anthony DeStefano brings the vain and possession-loving Roxy the camel to life to demonstrate the familiar Bible verse: It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.

Brightly illustrated by Richard Cowdrey and written in engaging, funny rhyme, this storybook follows Roxy’s journey from her waterless home in the desert to a great city of beauty she’s heard about but never seen. Along the way she learns that the only way to attain true happiness is to share–or even give away–what she possesses.
