Spiritual and Religious
This book examines the essential connecting points that people typically encounter as they progress on their own particular spiritual journey. For some, that may include regular participation in a practiced religious tradition. For others, their experience may not include a strong religious identity. Regardless of perspective, the connecting points provide a way to experience contemplative living--an awareness of life that's fully awake, fully alive. This gift of grace can lead to a new way of engaging in life and growth in spiritual maturity. Rev. Thomas Santa, CSsR, writes from the perspective of being both spiritual and religious, having spent most of his life as a Roman Catholic priest, spiritual director, and retreat director. He currently serves as the president and publisher of Liguori Publications, priest director of the Scrupulous Anonymous newsletter, and director of the ManagingScrupulosity.com website.
John
The Living WordWhat would it have been like to witness Christ's life on earth? The apostle John wrote about Jesus' earthly ministry from the perspective of one who was there. He saw Jesus teach, heal, pray, die, and live again. And he wanted to tell Christ's story. John's Gospel is a personal account about the life of Jesus-the living Word. Jesus is the one who can transform our empty lives and satisfy our deepest hunger. In this studyguide, Whitney Kuniholm guides you through every chapter of the book of John, bringing you face-to-face with the Son of God-who he is and what it means to follow him.
If God is a Woman, Who am I?
"If God Is a Woman, Who Am I?" Is a collection of short stories and poems that attempt to shed light on the questions concerning our identity in this world in relationship with our creator and our fellow beings. Sometimes one must go in search of the questions before one can seek the answers. If god is not who I envisioned, does that change me?
Love That Won't Walk Away
People fail. Peopleare conditional. But God is waiting to give the assurance that, in a world that is uncertain, He is certain. Even after times of immense joy or incredibly deep sadness, He will never walk away from His Beloved. So, how do we grasp God's promise to love us and never walk away? First of all, we remind ourselves of the scriptural foundation through which God speaks to us and commits his undying love. In addition to this study of God's word and the telling of the author's own experiences in this area, the reader will be led by the author through real journeys of everyday people who have discovered a way to make the clich矇 a reality. Rejection is certainly not limited to romantic relationships, as you will see in many of these stories. Acknowledging that God's love will never walk away has transformed their lives in every conceivable way and it can transform yours as well. In this book, readers will embrace a newfound acceptance of God's love and mercy, find new concepts for approaching relationships, be assured of incredible comfort, and rekindle their deepest hope.

Zur Psychopathologie des Alltagslebens - ?ber Vergessen, Versprechen, Vergreifen, Aberglaube und Irrtum
Das Buch Zur Psychopathologie des Alltagslebens geh繹rt bis in die Gegenwart zu einem Grundlagenwerk der Psychoanalyse. Freud f羹hrt in seiner Studie seine Theorie aus, wonach ein Gro?teil allt瓣glicher Fehlleistungen, wie das Versprechen, Vergessen, Verschreiben, Vergreifen, Verlegen von Gegenst瓣nden und anderen Fehlhandlungen und Irrt羹mern Ausdruck unbewusster Absichten ist. Es handelt sich also nur auf den ersten Blick um zuf瓣llige oder sinnlose Fehlleistungen bzw. Versehen, tats瓣chlich aber um sinnvolle Mechanismen des Unbewussten. Die Psychopathologie des Alltagslebens ist weniger eine Entdeckung Freuds als die Anwendung der Methode der Psychoanalyse auf ein bekanntes Ph瓣nomen. So konnte Freud unter anderem auf reichhaltiges Material in der Literatur zur羹ckgreifen. Beispielsweise will in Fontanes L'Adultera eine junge Frau ihrem Ehemann einen Ball zuwerfen, wirft ihn aber "versehentlich" einem danebenstehenden jungen Mann zu, den sie - noch unbewusst - erw瓣hlt hat und der sp瓣ter ihr Liebhaber wird. Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) war ein 繹sterreichischer Neurologe, Tiefenpsychologe, Kulturtheoretiker und Religionskritiker. Als Begr羹nder der Psychoanalyse erlangte er weltweite Bekanntheit. Freud gilt als einer der einflussreichsten Denker des 20. Jahrhunderts; seine Theorien und Methoden werden bis heute viel diskutiert.
Achieving and Living the Agape Life
Achieving and Living the Agape Life, a book that started out as Facebook posts, as well as material used for teaching at a recovery center that I was once a client at, as well as used for study materials for a men's ministry class that I also participated in, never knowing that God would tell me to put these individual life lessons into book form. With all the struggles that I have encountered throughout my life, these individual life lessons that I would write weekly were in fact God's way of telling me how to live my own life through Him. So really, I was writing these original posts to myself with the hope that sending them through Facebook would in turn help others. Needless to say, there were many people who would read them following with their comments that was a word they really needed to hear to get them through the day. This went on for about three years of compiling different life lessons and that I keep them all on file. So just this year, God instructed me to put these life lessons in book form. So now I can share my life journey with all of you. My sincere hope and prayers are that you will be as blessed reading my first book, Achieving and Living the Agape Life as I was blessed in writing it. For to have true happiness and peace, you must be filled with the love of Jesus Christ, true agape love.Be blessed.
