Can a man still love a woman even when she has destroyed his career and turned him away from the principles he lives by? Life of the Blessed Virgin Mary (Paperback) by Anne Catherine EmmerichBenediction Books"What is it about Emmerich's books that have provoked such consistently remarkable responses? They are not merely works of uncanny power by a renowned mystic and stigmatist. They present visionary recreations of the exact details and circumstances of the events in the Gospel. These recreations give the faithful the sense of being privileged witnesses to the events described more sparingly in the Scriptures. The Life of the Blessed Virgin Mary provides an in-depth account of Our Lady's ancestry, birth and life. It also contains information on the hidden years of Our Lord's childhood, life in the Holy Family, and Our Lady's later years and death."

Untie the Strong Woman: Blessed Mother's Immaculate Love for the Wild Soul by Clarissa Pinkola EstesSounds True, Incorporated
"Call her Our Lady, La Nuestra Señora, Holy Mother-or one of her thousands of other names," says Dr. Estés. "She wears hundreds of costumes, dozens of skin tones, is patroness of deserts, mountains, stars and oceans. Thus she comes to us in billions of images, but at her center, she is the Great Immaculate Heart." With Untie the Strong Woman, Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés invites us to reconnect with "the fierce and loving Blessed Mother who is friendly, but never tame-she who flies to our aid when the road is long and our hearts are broken, ever ready to rekindle the inner fire of our creative souls." In her first book in more than a decade, Dr. Estés illuminates Our Lady through blessings, images, and narrative, including:
"The Blessed Mother is often 'Friend to the friendless one' and Mother to all-yet too many of us have been estranged from her for far too long." Untie the Strong Woman opens a channel to this sacred and nurturing force-"breaking through walls that have held us back from her presence, and instead, inviting us to shelter under her starry green mantle." The Blessed Life: The Simple Secret of Achieving Guaranteed Financial Results by Robert MorrisRegal

With humor, passion and clarity, Robert Morris presents the secrets of living a blessed life both financially and spiritually. The Prayer of Jabez: Breaking Through to the Blessed Life by Bruce WilkinsonMultnomah PubDr. Bruce Wilkinson, the president of Walk Thru the Bible Ministries, takes readers to 1 Chronicles 4:10 to discover how they can release God's miraculous power and experience the blessings God longs to give each one of us. In Dr. Wilkinson's colorful, rich voice, the life of Jabez -- one of the Bible's most overlooked heroes of the faith -- bursts from the genealogical listings in an audacious, four-part prayer that brings Jabez an extraordinary measure of divine favor, anointing, and protection. Listeners who commit to offering the same prayer on a regular basis will find themselves extravagantly blessed by God and enlarged agents of His miraculous power in everyday life. Wilkinson tells us how in a motivational message full of real-life illustrations! Even well-versed Biblical scholars might be perplexed if asked about Jabez, a little-known man listed in 1 Chronicles, chapter 4. Yet his simple petition is the cornerstone of The Prayer of Jabez and has become a call to live a more "blessed life" for countless readers. The prayer is a simple one: "And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying, 'Oh, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain.' So God granted him what he requested." In an era where many Christians shy away from anything that smacks of "name it and claim it," author Bruce Wilkinson alleviates misgivings by putting the prayer into perspective. Wilkinson, founder and president of Walk thru the Bible Ministries and a popular speaker for Promise Keepers, writes in a persuasive, conversational style that will woo even the most cynical reader. He has used the Jabez prayer for more than 30 years, and testifies enthusiastically to the changes it has wrought in his own life. Wilkinson challenges readers to recite the Jabez prayer every morning and keep a record of the changes that occur. The power, he emphasizes, is not in the prayer itself, but "rather, the power is in what you believe will happen as a result of the prayer, and the action you take." Wilkinson makes a convincing case. --Cindy Crosby |
