New for Adults Face to Face with Jesus Reflections for a Disciple Bruno Forte “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered him, “You are the Messiah.”

In this series of brief spiritual exercises, Archbishop Bruno Forte—an eminent churchman, a world-renowned scholar, and a passionate Christian— guides the reader in a prayerful encounter with Jesus. Blending lectio divina and Ignatian spirituality, this catechumenal journey invites all disciples into a deep contemplation of Scripture.

Based on the Gospel of Mark, the shortest and oldest of the four gospels that succeeded in evangelizing the Church’s first generation, these spiritual exercises walk readers through the life of Jesus. Applying his scholarship and faith conviction, Archbishop Forte considers how Jesus lived, faced death, and confronted the future of his mission for humanity. A meditation on Jesus’s obedience, self-denial, love, courage, and trust as portrayed in Mark’s narrative illuminates the path to discipleship.

In this formative experience, readers come face to face with Jesus, embarking on a journey from darkness to light, from doubt to faith, from passive acceptance to active participation.

New for Adults Inspiration from Pope Francis Jorge Mario Bergoglio Be inspired by the Holy Father of many firsts—through his own words!

As the first pope to be a member of the Jesuit religious order, to come from Latin America, and to take the papal name in honor of Saint Francis of Assisi, Pope Francis made history.

The whole world watched as he bowed from the balcony in Saint Peter’s Square, chose to reside in the Vatican guesthouse rather than the Papal Palace, hugged a disabled boy at Easter Mass, and washed the feet of inmates at a juvenile detention center during Holy Week. From these publicized events, we are already acquainted with his humility, his simplicity, and his closeness to the people.

But, who was Pope Francis before he became pope, when he was the cardinalarchbishop of Buenos Aires?

This collection of homilies written by Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio between the years 1999–2013 offers readers a unique glimpse into Pope Francis’s character and nature. Selected excerpts contain his inspirational, pithy thoughts on a wide array of topics, ranging from Jesus Christ to the Holy Spirit, to education and family. Capturing his concerns related to humanity, these homilies particularly reveal the roots of Pope Francis’s commitment to social justice. By reflecting and praying on his words, readers are inspired to transform his thoughts into concrete actions.

EXCERPT ON PRAYER: “Intercession isn’t for the weak. We don’t pray so as to ‘achieve’ something, to stay on good terms with our conscience, or to enjoy a purely aesthetic interior harmony. When we pray, we are struggling for our people. Is this how I pray? Or am I tired and bored? Do I try to avoid getting involved in that mess so that my affairs may be peaceful?”

“The prayer that pleases God is that which moves from a personal encounter with him to a life consecrated to the service of others. Prayer is an expression of openness, of trust, and of our need for God. Whoever feels self-sufficient, who doesn’t pray, pleases himself. Authentic prayer requires transparency, consistency, and authenticity.”

New for Adults The Joy of the Gospel Evangelii Gaudium Pope Francis Given in Rome by Pope Francis on November 24, 2013, the Solemnity of Christ the King, The Joy of the Gospel (Evangelii Gaudium) encourages all members of the faithful to a renewed personal encounter with Christ and to a greater evangelization. In his first apostolic exhortation, Pope Francis delves more deeply into the new evangelization, building on the foundation laid by Benedict XVI and John Paul II. The document discusses evangelization in the context of both the pulpit and the world. Pope Francis expresses a desire for “a ‘missionary option’, that is, a missionary impulse capable of transforming everything…”(#27) Referencing the Second Vatican Council, Paul VI, John Paul II, Benedict XVI, and many other Church documents, Pope Francis calls the Church to a greater evangelization that is empowered by a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ.

In this apostolic letter, Pope John Paul II reflects on the origins of suffering, explores the different types of suffering we endure, examines our quest to discover its meaning and purpose, and explains how we are to respond to suffering.

This edition makes the content of the papal document more accessible and places it in the context of recent world events, including September 11th, the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, and gun violence incidents in schools and public places across the nation. Each of the eight sections of the original document contains insightful questions suited for individual or group use, applicable prayers, and ideas for meaningful action, inviting readers to personally respond to the mystery of suffering.

—John Paul II

EXCERPT Mary was Full of Joy

Joy is one of the fruits of the Spirit: “The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy . . .” (Gal 5:22). So we can be sure that Mary, being so open to the Spirit, was full of joy.

And Mary was free from sin, the source of sadness... Mary can kindle in us the fire of God’s love and the dance of joy. Mary shows us that doing God’s will is not drudgery or, worse yet, an enslavement. Instead, it is the breath of fresh air that lifts us up and carries us along so that we can fly straight to God: “Those who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint” (Is 40:31).

New for Adults Navigating the New Evangelization Raniero Cantalamessa, OFM Cap Foreword by Bishop Christopher J. Coyne, SLD, from the Archdiocese of Indianapolis Set sail aboard a historical journey through evangelization with papal homilist Raniero Cantalamessa as your captain.

Compiling the meditations that he delivered at the Papal Household of Pope Benedict XVI during Advent 2010 and 2011, Fr. Cantalamessa traces the waves of evangelization from the first centuries of Christianity to the present day. On this horizon where history, geography, and culture meet, he propels us toward the shores of the new evangelization. Diving into scientific atheism, rationalism, and secularism, Cantalamessa navigates through the major modern challenges that the announcement of the Gospel encounters. His writing is anchored in quotes from Scripture, the Church Fathers, Vatican Councils, papal documents, saints, doctors of the Church, theologians, philosophers, poets, authors, and scientists.

By mapping out the route that evangelization has taken, Cantalamessa provides readers with a compass steering them not only toward an understanding of the new evangelization, but also toward putting that understanding into practice.

The Classic Wisdom Collection Today’s questions. Timeless answers.

Each volume of the Classic Wisdom Collection provides time-tested spiritual guidance for living a Christian life.

New!

In Time for the Canonization of John XXIII and John Paul II!

Secret to Happiness: Wisdom from John XXIII Compiled and with a Foreword by Donna Giaimo, FSP How can I discover the secret to happiness and holiness in my life?

This collection contains famous and lesser-known writings from the humble 20th century giant, Saint John XXIII. Born Angelo Giuseppe Roncalli, John XXIII once remarked that there were “three ways for a man to come to ruin: women, gambling, and farming. My family chose the most boring way.” This gentle wit and humility drew him into the people’s hearts after his election as Pope in 1958.

“Good Pope John” became well-loved during his papacy for his humility, joyful spirit, and gentle wit. Surprising the world with his intention to call the Second Vatican Council, he was not a stranger to the pressures and worries of life. As a priest, pastor, diplomat, and pope, John XXIII discovered and lived the secret to navigating those worries with serenity and joy.

With short chapters and Pope John’s gentle voice, this addition to the Classic Wisdom Collection will show us the secret to authentic happiness: humility and confidence in God’s will for us. March 2014 Paperback,128 pages.

Trust in God is difficult, even in the best of times. John Paul II trusted God during every hardship that came into his life. His conviction of God’s faithfulness is evident in his words. Be not afraid and let John Paul II illuminate the authentic freedom that comes from confidence in God’s love. April 2014 Paperback, 128 pages.

The Story of Saint Lorenzo Ruiz Adapted from a Novel by Susan Tan September 29, 1637, Nishizaka Hill, Japan: Lorenzo Ruiz, a prisoner upholding the Christian virtues of courage and faith, is martyred for his refusal to renounce his Catholic faith.

This novelized account of the life of Saint Lorenzo Ruiz, a married ChineseFilipino layman, retraces the series of events that lead up to his violent martyrdom in 17th century feudal Japan.

When Lorenzo is targeted by Spanish officials as a scapegoat for murder, he has no choice but to escape from the Philippines to avoid arrest and possible execution.

Leaving his wife and three children behind, he joins Dominican missionaries on their ocean voyage to Japan. Little does he know that the threats he is trying to escape from in the Philippines are nothing in comparison to the dangers that await him in Japan.

Themes include: martyrdom, persecution, and history.

EXCERPTS

Lorenzo dipped his brush pen in ink and marked the date on his calendar: Tuesday, June 10, 1636. It was the date he was to set sail from the Philippines.

Lorenzo had already said goodbye to his three children and his beloved wife, Rosario. He had also asked both his Chinese and Filipino relatives to keep an eye on his family while he was gone.

“Do everything you can to keep Rosario from worrying,” he pleaded. But Lorenzo suspected that only his safe return home would put her fears to rest.

Despite the rains and his sad departure, the family shared some early morning cheer: a cup of hot Chinese tea between husband and wife, and a rare treat of ground roasted cacao beans whipped with warmed carabao’s milk for the children.

The thick aroma of the chocolate filled the room. The cacao beans had come as a gift from the Dominican friars, who had hefty bags of them imported from New Spain in America half a world away.

“I am a Catholic and wholeheartedly accept death for God!” Lorenzo cried out.

“And if I had a thousand lives, I would offer them all to him.”

• Incorporates themes of racism, colonialism, and feudalism

EXCERPTS

1. Thou shalt ignore the pimple on my lip.

In the side-view mirror, I catch a glimpse of the white bump. It looks like it’s wearing a red inner tube. “Warning: objects in mirror may appear bigger than they are.” This little reminder from the car is not comforting. While my lips aren’t exactly full and juicy, I’ve been told they do curve into a sweet smile. And now that’s wrecked. I groan and slump into my seat. Actually, the pimple is Mom’s fault.

She forgot to get my zit cream.

Suddenly, the last line of the song that Mrs. Fermacelli played a few weeks ago starts playing in my head on repeat. “Lead me to the truth and I will follow you with my whole life.” I think that’s what I’ve been wanting all along. To know what the truth is about love. And there’s that Bible verse where Jesus says, “I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life.” So the song could also mean that I need to be led to Jesus. Well, here I am.

ENDORSEMENTS I just finished the book—really like it. Is it out yet? I think all Catholics should read it..or just everybody…”

—Celeste Vodola, mother of five girls, ages 12-18

New for Teens Genius under Construction Marilee Haynes Gabe Carpenter—St. Jude Academy’s resident genius—is back for his final year of middle school. Some things have certainly changed from last year: his ‘lockerwon’t-open’ days seem to be over, his rolling backpack has been replaced by his grandpa’s briefcase, he’s now the basketball team’s official analyst, and he, along with all of the other eighth graders, are allowed to sit on “The Rock.” Other things have stayed exactly the same: Gabe has yet to figure out girls (especially his second best friend and crush, Maya), he’s still in that class for gifted students, and his embarrassing bodily functions continue to well, embarrass him.

On the cusp of graduation, this eighth-grade status brings some inescapable realities. Gabe, along with all of the other graduating students, must complete fifteen hours of community service. Thinking his talents would be best used in service to others academically, he picks tutoring. But when he finds out he will be working with a student who has a learning disability, things become a bit more complicated than expected.

At home, an envelope with an unfilled application to Carolina Science and Math High School is shoved in the bottom of his closet. With the deadline quickly approaching, Gabe is being pressured by his parents, grandma, and the memory of his dead grandpa to make a decision of whether or not to apply. He loves science, but is he willing to leave his friends behind to go there next year? Leave Maya?

At least Gabe can still turn to St. Jude, the patron saint of lost causes, to help him along the way…

Join Gabe as he finishes up his last year of middle school, discovers how his giftedness can serve others, and follows his academic passion

Written by Genny Monchamp Illustrated by Apryl Stott

0-8198-1209-9 9780819812094 Board Book, 42 pages $16.95 USD

In this collection of stories drawn from both the Old and New Testaments, children ages 1–4 are introduced to God’s Word in a simple and hands-on way.

Twenty Bible stories come to life through short narrative sentences and dialogue, capturing the limited attention spans of young children. Accompanying each story are interactive elements that keep little ones actively engaged in their reading experience, encourage reading comprehension, and reinforce basic cognitive skills.

Children are invited to part the sea like Moses, count the people in Bethlehem, find stones for David’s slingshot, say “Hosanna” aloud, distinguish fish of different sizes and colors, and identify God’s creations. A comforting, faith-filled message often concludes activities, reminding children of God’s love.

This new release offers a fresh approach to what made our best-selling Bible for Little Ones (2004) so popular.

Bible stories included are: • • • • • • • • • •

God’s Garden Noah and the Ark God’s Promise to Abraham Moses Leads God’s People David and the Giant Daniel and the Lions Jonah Runs Away from God Mary’s Good News Jesus is Born Jesus is Found

• • • • • • • • • •

New for Children God Is with Me

Always and Everywhere Written by Cornelia Bilinsky Illustrated by Candace Camling Where is God? This faith formation resource introduces children ages 4–7 to God’s loving presence in every moment. Appealing to children’s delight in creation, God Is with Me explains that the wonders of our world are signs of the presence of God. Relatable examples grounded in children’s sensate and everyday experiences assure children that God is with them—always and forever—even when they make mistakes.

Rhyming stanzas and delightful illustrations reveal that God is with children in their past, present, and future. First, children are reminded of their Baptism, the special day when they became a child of God and a friend of Jesus Christ. Then, they discover that the Church, the Virgin Mary, guardian angels, and the Eucharist are all ways to experience God. Lastly, the theological concepts of heaven and eternity are introduced. This comprehensive perspective lays the foundations for children to develop and maintain a personal relationship with God.

When I was a little child,

I was baptized and I became

Those who most loved me

A child of God that day;

Brought me to the church with joy

Now God is with me always,

To join God’s family.

Everywhere, in every way.
