Beneath The Surface
Two leaders--one stood firm, one fell flat. Joseph resisted the seductive advances of his master's wife--David gave into temptation and had an adulterous affair with Bathsheba. Record observes that both men had human limitations, but Joseph recognized his weaknesses while David overestimated his strengths. Using the backdrop of these familiar Biblical examples, Bob Reccord urges readers to set boundries before temptation arises. "When the alarm bells go off...(respond) to the alarm." Urging readers to chose now to resist temptation, Reccord advises them to guard their hearts in an unguarded world because a drifting heart has only one way to go--away from God.
Benedict of Bavaria
Brennan Pursell, author of the newly released book Benedict of Bavaria hopes to share the intimate side of Pope Benedict XVI with the world and give readers a glimpse at the true nature of the man"how his mind works, what his heart loves, and where his loyalties lie. Unlike other books about Cardinal Ratzinger/Pope Benedict, Pursell shows that like his Catholic faith, Benedict's Bavarian heritage is an inextricable part of who he is. '“A fascinating narrative, rich in delightful descriptions that blends history, psychology, pilgrimage, and a bit of tourism in beautiful Bavaria. Insightful descriptions of the Pope's personality counterbalance the media image of the Panzer-Cardinal. The portrayal that emerges is that of a benevolent, humble, and determined man engaged in the pursuit of an ideal that ultimately led him to the throne of Peter. A book to stand side by side with The Ratzinger Report .�' "Raymond de Souza , International Catholic apologist, director of Saint Gabriel Communications. ''“Pursell's intimate knowledge of Bavaria lends itself beautifully to this straightforward and easy to read biography of Pope Benedict. If you want to go beyond the headlines and the talking heads to know the real Benedict, this is the place to start.�' "Dr. Pia de Solenni , Moral Theologian and Cultural Commentator ''“Brennan Pursell is a rare find: he combines intellectual rigor with lively enjoyable prose, and a mature love for the Church with a keen and respectful understanding of contemporary culture's most pressing issues. If you read one book on Pope Benedict XVI, this is the one to pick.�' "Father John Bartunek, LC, best-selling author of Inside the Passion and The Better Part ''“In this very readable book, Brennan Pursell has given all those interested in getting to know the real Pope Benedict the means to understand him from the inside. Pursell ably connects the formative seeds of Joseph Ratzinger's upbringing-his family, his deeply Catholic Bavarian culture, his teachers, as well as his up-close encounter with the evil of Nazism-to the abundant fruit he has borne as a theologian, bishop, Vatican prefect, and pope. This book will nourish both those who know a lot about Pope Benedict and those who know almost nothing.�' "Father Roger Landry , Executive Editor of The Anchor 'Sample images from Benedict of Bavaria ' '

Benedictions : A Pocket Resource
Benedictions, invocations to depart with God's blessings, are a feature of the church - every liturgical structure ends with them.They were a feature of the synagogue in Christ's time - indeed Christ himself uses them when he dismisses his disciples on a new task.The word benediction derives from two Latin words that mean "to speak well of". Benedictions are pronounced by ministers at the close of worship services as an expression of hope and encouragement to God's people to face whatever their future might hold.This makes them a Biblical norm for the end of worship - something we should consider doing each time we leave God's presence and go out into the world.If you are involved with leading worship in the church or in the home your next question will be 'Where do I go to find them?'Fortunately Robert Vasholz has done the legwork for you. He has collected in this one book the benedictions found in scripture along with some additional scripture enriched blessings for use during worship.Use them to help Christians have a greater effect on the world.
