Alcanzando a Jesús

por David Knight

Spanish translation of Reaching Jesus including the workbook.

Este libro es una guía de cinco decisiones de morir a nosotros mismos y elevarnos a ser Cristo. Las decisiones son sencillas, claras y especificas. Y todas son faciles, por lo menos al principio. Pueden conducirnos a "vivir el evangelio con heroísmo" (ila fórmula para la canonización!) pero no es necesario ser herioco para empezar a vivirlas. Ni siquiera es necesario ser un cristiano particularmente bueno. Solamene es necesario estar dispuesto a empezar. Se incluye un Manual de Trabajo para el estudio y la reflexion.

The Scent of Jasmine
Reflections for Peace in Everyday Life

By Patricia McCarthy

The Scent of Jasmine encourages us to lay claim to Christ's promise of peace, to make each day an experience of God and an experience of the gift of peace.  This is a practical book that gives facts, raises questions, and harmonizes the liturgical cycle with the "secular cycle" of civic observances and recurring yearly experiences (school days, weddings, graduations, and encounters with contemporary movements).  It forges a link between faith and daily life.  When we learn to forgive our enemy, feed our brother, clothe our sister, and shelter our children, then we will be living peace as our Christian responsibility and receiving  peace as God's gift.

By Fr. David Knight

The "spiritual life" begins for each of us when we realize there is something going on between ourselves and God and choose to involve ourselves in it.

It clarifies the frustration we experience when we try to move or guide others to a level of spiritual growth which can only be reached from a level not yet attained. This is a "map" for spiritual progress.

Confession Can Change Your Life

By David Knight

Why don't people go to confession anymore? Have we lost the sense of sin? (Did we ever really have it - authentically? Wasn't everything a "mortal sin"?) This book is based on a priest's experience that the real sins are seldom confessed, and that confession can be -- should be -- one of the most powerful instruments in the Church for day-to-day, progressive spiritual growth. Historically the Church has used Reconciliation for many things; our own limited focus on "getting forgiven" has made us neglect its more positive benefits: the felt, experienced reconciliation both with God and with the community, consistent support in maintaining ideals and overcoming failures, the experience of Jesus present in the Church today, a conscience expanded to face the real problems of our times. This book offers innovative, practical suggestions for making Reconciliation "work" in our lives.
