Whens God Gonna Show Up
Read moreThis delightful book is written to entertain and inspire the faithful to see Jesus Christ in their everyday lives. When’s God Gonna Show Up? is a question asked by a four-year-old to his mother when their family was in church for Eucharistic Adoration. His mother is the author of this joyous book, and she writes of understanding God’s incredible love for us by trying to understand the information God has given to us.
When’s God Gonna Show Up? reinforces the fact that as children of God, we’ll spend our lives finding the path God has chosen for us and hearing God’s voice in silence and also in the voices of strangers and loved ones. This book of loving, heart-warming short stories is organized by liturgical season and cites related Scripture passages and includes questions for personal reflection or group discussion.

Choosing Happiness
Read moreIn Choosing Happiness, Lizzie talks about some of these obstacles and how she managed to choose happiness. From fighting with friends to college applications and learning how to live on your own, Lizzie offers her own stories and advice on how to handle whatever life throws at you. With social media and celebrities giving us their own examples of what it means to “grow up” and be successful, Lizzie shows us how it’s sometimes better to stand outside the crowd, even if that means we sometimes have to stand alone.
While it’s easy to give up or give in to social pressure, Lizzie shows us how choosing our happiness is better, and how with faith, prayer, friends, a good attitute–and late-night taco runs–you can overcome anything.

Perseverance In Trials
Read moreChristian life, like life generally, is marked by trials. For this reason, the author has chosen the Book of Job as a primary text for reflection, although other passages of the Old and New Testaments are also offered for meditation.
The story of Job spoke to the Jewish people exiled in Babylonia, even as it speaks to us today. It inspires questions such as, Does suffering have meaning? Can human beings ask God to account for that suffering? It counters those questions by asking for belief in God’s ultimate justice and (humanly) incomprehensible wisdom.
In comments marked by spiritual and pastoral depth, Cardinal Martini, Archbishop of Milan, dwells on certain passages of Job that help shed light on the meaning of the mystery of the human person and the mystery of God. The reflections are gathered from retreat lectures given by the cardinal. When read in an atmosphere of prayer, these pages become a source of light, nourishment, strength, incentive, and consolation.
