Are you ready to allow God to guide you in all things? Allow God to surprise you, to sweep you away, to show you what it means to be deliriously happy, to teach you to dance for joy. H

One of the reasons teachers have such a profound impact on our lives is because their work is tied so closely to the meaning and purpose of life. H

SPECIAL 100th ANNIVERSARY EDITION OF THE CLASSIC CHILDREN'S TALE
CHILDREN Goodnight Jesus Matthew Kelly You are never too young to get in the habit of saying good night to Jesus. Good Night Jesus teaches young hearts and reminds old hearts how to be grateful, thank God for all his blessings, pray for others who are less fortunate, and rest in the joy of faith and love. Evening prayer is a powerful habit, and this small book introduces that habit in a way that is as natural as waking up in the morning and going to bed at night. Available as a board book
I Know Jesus Matthew Kelly You are never too young to start getting to know Jesus. He is full of joy and he wants to share his joy with you. He is by your side every minute of every day. When your heart is soaring with happiness, turn to him. When your heart is heavy with disappointment, turn to him. Jesus wants to be your friend. Available as a board book
Why Am I Here? Matthew Kelly Max was a curious boy. He was curious about other countries, he was curious about animals and nature, and he was curious about life. One day while he is fishing with his Grandpa, Max stumbles upon the ultimate question, Why am I here? His Grandfather suggests that Max is here to become the-best-version-of-himself! In the days and weeks that follow, Max begins to notice when he is and when he is not celebrating the-best-version-of-himself. H
