That Christ is the logic, the meaning of creation itself, is a central but often neglected doctrine of Catholic Christianity. Though it is a mystery, sufficient traces of it can be found. Drawing primarily on the insights of Rene Girard and Hans Urs von Balthasar, Gil Bailie's new book is an effort to locate and explicate some of these traces."

Yet in the real world, for most people, the greatest battles of their lives are the ones fought inside their own headsand the villains are creatures both self-created and self-nurtured. Meet Charlie Barnes. Age 24, bright, college-educated, talented and a failure. Now hes back home in Los Angeles after a disastrous two-year pilgrimage to New York and back. No more time to fail.

Everyone in the world shares the same thought: One day, I'm going to die! Although our common faith agrees that our last breath is inevitable, we are strangely divided as to what happens next. People believe that one of the following happens when we die: 1.Annihilation 2.Reincarnation 3.Purgatory 4.All go to Heaven 5.Do more good things than bad and go to Heaven 6.Judgment 7.Whichever one you personally believe is true I've been in search of the truth since I was eight years old, when I continually dreamt of being struck by a car while riding my bicycle. As I lay motionless wondering whether I was dead or alive, I was haunted by one question: Is this all there is to life? I am now fifty-five years old. I have lived on both sides of the fence of life: not believing in God and believing that God is the creator of the world and that His Son Jesus is its Savior. I sincerely hope that after reading this book, you will be convinced to do two things: 1. Recognize that only one of the seven answers above is correct, and 2. Open the Bible, believe for yourself, and don't gamble with God! Hint! "Come, you who are blessed by My Father, inherit the kingdom." - Heaven "I never knew you; depart from me." - Hell

In Words of Love, Eugenia Anne Gamble dives into each of the Ten Commandments and examines their application for modern-day Christians, going beyond the letter of the law to a spiritual truth pointing us toward wholeness and well-being.

From the author of the bestselling children's book When God Made You comes a rhythmic, whimsical journey through creation--for little readers who love science and wonder and the beginnings of all things. For spiritual parents who are looking for a different kind of creation book, Matthew Paul Turner's When God Made the World focuses on the complex way that God created our vast and scientifically operating universe, including the biodiversity of life on our planet and the intricacies of a vast solar system. Scottish illustrator Gillian Gamble brings the natural world to vibrant life with rich colors and poignant detail certain to stretch young minds and engage imaginations. Planet Earth, God made a blue and green sphere, And designed it to orbit the sun once a year. God made daytime and nighttime, climates and seasons, And all kinds of weather that vary by region. God made continents and oceans, islands and seas, A north and south pole that God put in deep freeze. God carved rivers and brooks, mountains and caves, Made beaches with sand and huge crashing waves. God made tropics and plateaus, glaciers and meadows, marshes and tundras and erupting volcanos.
