Summary:
Something amazing is going on here.
A traditional rite, an important symbol, an excuse for a family photo op around a newborn… Baptism means a lot of different things to those who experience it.
What if there is a lot more happening in Baptism than most people realize?
DIVE DEEP INTO THE TRUE MEANING OF BAPTISM
In three engaging sessions, the home-edition of Reborn explores the deeply personal and sacred relevancy of Baptism for Parents, Godparents and, most importantly, the Baptized.
With a step-by-step explanation of the rite itself, including it’s profound place in Scripture and Tradition, Reborn shows how baptism reveals the heart of God’s love for His children.

A Life-Changing Experience for Teens
Identity. Gender. Love. Chastity. The world is a difficult place for teens, and it has become increasingly hard for parents and educators to help teens discover the truth about their bodies, their sexuality, and their unique call to love.
In an age of “selfies” and egocentrism, You cuts through the noise to present an authentic view of the human person. It presents young people with the extraordinary story of their creation as unrepeatable individuals. But the program doesn’t stop there.
YOU: Life, Love, and the Theology of the Body introduces teens to the truth that life is not, in fact, all about them; it is about going out of themselves to be a sincere gift for others.

Summary:
Every commentary on the Book of Psalms has had to face the issue that many of these prayers commemorate and celebrate wrath and vengeance. What is needed is not ingenious exegetical rationalization of ancient texts, but the kind of transformation into a work of piety and art that is provided here.Addressed are the needs of a world seeking to counter individual and societal injustices by a global peace born of personal peace through prayer and practice. In short, here is the Book of Psalms recast in the light of the continuing revelation and evolution of the authentic religious spirit of the scriptures.

Summary:
Why is it so difficult to be grateful for the things we have? Human nature seems designed to keep us focused on what we do not have. We compete and think only of getting more. However, we can be happy. We can achieve a gratitude-driven life by learning to celebrate God’s grace and mercy, by seeing Him in everything we have. This book shows how our daily life is an encounter with God! The Gratitude-Driven Life is an exploration of several important questions: • Is it possible to change our attitude and be more grateful? • How can we achieve an attitude of gratitude? • Can we learn to appreciate simple, small things? • How can we teach ourselves to give more affirmations than complaints? The Gratitude-Driven Life is a great read for any time or season. It is a source of your daily devotional, reflection, journaling, and prayer. You can start at any page or list depending on how you are feeling right now. You can express your emotions and know you are grateful in each circumstance or situation you might be in at that particular moment. There is a story for each of your days and challenges to take, to celebrate God’s grace and mercy!
