Devotional Books

Of Mary, there is never enough! �

Books about the Blessed Virgin abound, yet the words of St. Bernard of Clairvaux still ring true: Of Mary, there is never enough! � She is a mystery that faithful Christians seek to understand more fully, an ocean full of grace � still awaiting deeper exploration.  

In  A Year with Mary: Daily Meditations on the Mother of God,  best-selling Catholic author Paul Thigpen sets sail on that ocean, using as his map the profound insights of saints and other spiritual writers. These 365 reflections, drawn from their writings, reveal Mary s role in God s plan, the virtues she so perfectly models, and the rich benefits of Marian devotion.

Have you ever read the entire Bible? You can now. Here's the Bible that shows you how.

My Daily Catholic Bible, Revised NAB Edition offers a reading plan that divides all of Sacred Scripture into 365 segments, one for each day of the year; features two small, manageable readings for each day, one from the Old Testament and one from the New Testament; offers an insightful quote from a saint for every day.

There's never been an easier way to read the Bible. You don't have to start on January 1. Begin reading on any calendar date and twelve months later you'll have made your way through all seventy-three books of the biblical canon. And a place for a check mark next to each entry makes it simple to keep track of your progress. Plus, you'll know exactly where to start in again if you miss a day or two!

Growing Stronger: Workouts, Devotions, and Recipes to Become Healthy from the Inside Out

"A Joyful Life Starts on the Inside Hi, I'm Cambria! For years, I struggled with my self-image and how to make my dual pursuits of faith and fitness fit together. Maybe you can relate. Everything changed one day when I decided I was tired of looking in the mirror and started looking solely toward God. What He showed me is that true strength-physical, emotional, and spiritual-starts from the inside out. When you're staying connected to God, you'll find that eating well and exercising regularly will be so much easier. Your faith, food choices, and fitness will all just naturally flow together as part of your healthy and whole life. I want to share what I've learned with you, motivate you, and encourage you with delicious recipes to nourish your body, creative workouts to keep you moving, and wisdom from God's Word to inspire and shape you into the woman He's creating you to be. Let's grow strong from the inside out!"--

Is your quiet time with God like a monologue of prayer requests? Sarah Young's used to be, until she began the practice of waiting on God to receive and record his messages. Experience a greater sense of his peace as you read Jesus' words of reassurance, comfort, and hope. Each daily reading includes Scripture references. 400 pages, brown imitation leather from Nelson.

Jesus Calling: Enjoying Peace in His Presence

After many years of writing her own words in her prayer journal, missionary Sarah Young decided to be more attentive to the Savior's voice and begin listening for what He was saying. So with pen in hand, she embarked on a journey that forever changed her--and many others around the world.

Here is a year's worth of daily readings from Young's journals to bring you closer to Christ and move your time with Him from monologue to a dialogue.

Since the early centuries, Christians have held up the saints as models of living the Gospel of Jesus Christ. While the church officially recognizes a relatively small number of saints, the actual roster is infinitely wider.  Blessed Among Us explores this eclectic "cloud of witnesses lay and religious, single and married, canonized and not, and even non-Christians whose faith and wisdom may illuminate our path. Brought to life in the evocative storytelling of Robert Ellsberg, they inspire the moral imagination and give witness to the myriad ways of holiness.

In two stories per day for a full calendar year, Ellsberg sketches figures from biblical times to the present age and from all corners of this world ordinary figures whose extraordinary lives point to the new age in the world to come.

Blessed Among Us is drawn from Ellsberg's acclaimed column of the same name in Give Us This Day, a monthly resource for daily prayer published by Liturgical Press.
