Journeying with Jonah The Struggle to find Yourself Fr Denis McBride C.Ss.R.

In this book Fr Denis has chosen to explore the character of Jonah – a somewhat unlikely hero. The prophet Jonah is a sympathetic partner, albeit a curious one, to help us review our lives. Jonah is offered to us as an unusual teacher – awkward, reluctant, disobedient, opinionated, fearful, flighty: the prophet who remains stubborn to the end. But his story celebrates the beauty of the indiscriminate mercy of God, a message for our time. The story of Jonah is for anyone who is reflecting on their own life.

His insightful reflections throw new light on familiar and unfamiliar passages of scripture. Wearing his scholarship lightly, Denis McBride uses his background in biblical studies and psychology to open up the readings in a way that is accessible for all readers.

then and now Denis McBride

The way of the cross is not confined to a lonely road in Jerusalem two thousand years ago:it is a busy highway winding through every village, town and city in our modern world. Fr Denis McBride C.Ss.R. reflectively guides us along the way of the cross. He contrasts the beauty and solemn simplicity of the more traditional Stations by artist Curd Lessig with modern images that challenge us to link Jesus’ story to the struggle of our everyday life.

Through its rich array of scripture passages, paintings, poetry, prayers, photographs and reflections, The Stations of the Cross – then and now becomes a companion not only on our Lenten journey but throughout the year: suffering is not limited to one liturgical season. Whether we walk in solitude or with others, this book translates the passion of Jesus into our own life and times.

Diana Klein

Although fewer people are coming to Mass today, people still turn to the church to celebrate at key moments in their lives: they are saying that they are aware of the significance of these key experiences in their lives. This book leads parishes to make the most of these brief encounters as there may be few opportunities to engage with them.

Symbols of Faith offers parents, priests and catechists creative insights and ideas on the faith formation and sacramental preparation of people with learning disabilities. The materials are adaptable, flexible and appropriate to their ability, to help them come to know the person of Christ, who leads us to the Father through the Holy Spirit. A CD is included with this book, providing additional resources and unlimited use of activity sheets to complement the sessions.

WELCOME TO WITNESS

These words of Pope Francis, from Evangelii Gaudium, are a wonderful summary of the process of evangelisation.

Does our parish fit his description? What are we already doing well?

What could we do even better?

This book grew out of the work which the authors do as the Department for Evangelisation in Salford Diocese, nationally and the practical experience of working in a parish in the Salford Diocese. It is designed as a hands-on support to priests, catechists and parishioners. It is intended to help a parish truly become, in the words of St John Paul II, “the Church living in the midst of the homes of her sons and daughters.”

Becoming an evangelising parish

Pope Francis describes the parish as “a community of communities, a sanctuary where the thirsty come to drink in the midst of their journey, and a centre of constant missionary outreach.”

WELCOME TO WITNESS

Becoming an evangelising parish

“Whenever we take a step towards Jesus, we come to realise that he is already there, waiting for us with open arms.”
