Many of us do not trust our own thoughts, feelings, and desires when it comes to discerning God's will. Instead we look outside ourselves to determine what God wants from and for us. In God's Voice Within, spiritual director Mark E. Thibodeaux, SJ, shows us how to use Ignatian discernment to access our own spiritual intuition and understand that the most trustworthy wisdom of all comes not from outside sources, but from God working through us.

In 1904, a little-known Englishman named James Allen wrote a small book called As a Man Thinketh. A hundred years later, this book has become a self-empowerment classic. New World Library author and publisher Marc Allen updated this timeless gem, recasting obsolete language and polishing the author’s message to highlight the universal principles of the original. James Allen’s message has now reached a whole new generation of listeners with As You Think.

Two ordinary men, exploring the word of God and what it means to be a Christian

The Gospel According to Mark presents the life, ministry, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ with urgency, clarity, and powerful simplicity, emphasizing Him as the Son of God and the suffering Savior sent to redeem humanity. Known for its fast-paced narrative and vivid accounts, Mark focuses strongly on the actions, miracles, and authority of Jesus as He teaches, heals the sick, casts out demons, calms storms, and calls people to repentance and faith.

What does it mean to know something? Can we have confidence in our knowledge? Epistemology, the study of knowledge, can often seem like a daunting subject. And yet few topics are more basic to human life. We are inquisitive creatures by nature, and the unending quest for truth leads us to raise difficult questions about the quest itself. What are the conditions, sources, and limits of our knowledge? Do our beliefs need to be rationally justified? Can we have certainty? In this primer on epistemology, James Dew and Mark Foreman guide readers through this discipline in philosophy.

Prayers that "strike the mark" are specific prayers authorized by the Holy Spirit and endowed with divine power to accomplish the will of God in your life and for the needs of the world. Intercession could be called "extreme prayer” because it links extreme needs with the extraordinary power of God. Inserting ourselves into the gap between God and a need, we call upon the Holy Spirit, our Helper, who is ready to move us from finite ability to infinite ability, take hold of difficult situations, and help accomplish the will of God.

God Is Disappointed in You is for people who would like to read the Bible...if it would just cut to the chase. Stripped of its arcane language and interminable passages, every book of the Bible is condensed down to its core message, in no more than a few pages each. Written by Mark Russell with cartoons by New Yorker cartoonist Shannon Wheeler, God Is Disappointed in You is a frequently hilarious, often shocking, but always accurate retelling of the Bible, including the parts selectively left out by Sunday School teachers.

This three-and-a-half-hour audiobook offers a faithful retelling of the Hofmann forgeries, and their impact on the progressive rewriting of Latter-Day Saint history. Why did new Mormon historians insist Hofmann’s forgeries were legitimate, even when investigators provided convincing evidence to them of the hoax? How did Bruce R. McConkie know Hofmann’s Joseph Smith III Blessing was a fake, despite authentication by document experts and pressure by historians calling him “incompetent” for questioning?

A provocative and shocking look at how western society is misunderstanding and mistreating mental illness. In Britain alone, more than 20% of the adult population take a psychiatric drug in any one year. This is an increase of over 500% since 1980 and the numbers continue to grow. Yet, despite...

Alexander Scourby was the first to record the King James Bible on audio in the early 1950s. Since then millions have been sold the world over. Although many have recorded the Bible over the years, no one could ever match Scourby's unparalleled and majestic reading. The combination of Alexander Scourby reading the King James Bible is an incomparable hearing experience. The Chicago Tribune wrote that "Alexander Scourby has the greatest voice ever recorded."

Why are there over 45,000 Christian denominations in the world rooted in only one Bible, one Savior, and one Holy Spirit who inspired the New Testament describing the Ecclesia (Church)? Jesus said there is only one nullifying (destroying) thing to the Word of God—tradition! So much of what happens in churches today is repetition of vain rituals, only making people feel religious and not fulfilling the Great Commission of either converting the lost or discipling the saints. Churches are dying, the youth view them as irrelevant, and are leaving for lack of life-changing power or excitement.

Although we often talk about spirituality, we usually cannot define it or explain how to achieve it. Besides offering a definition of spirituality, this book examines the need for spiritual vision in our lives. It further explores our individual journey into an "apprenticeship" with God, which takes us beyond the merely mortal into transformative closeness to Jesus Christ. Spirituality grows as we strengthen the three basic relationships established by Christ--to God, to ourselves, and to others.

"Jesus of Nazareth, a Biography, by John Mark," recognizes the author of the second Gospel as that "John, whose surname was Mark" (Acts 15:37), whom Barnabas chose as companion when he sailed for Cyprus on his second missionary journey. In making use of the new title, the plan of the Editor is to present "The Gospel: According to Mark" as it would be printed were it written in the twentieth rather than the first century.

These 3 New Testament books by different authors confirm the life, teachings, miracles, and spirituality of Jesus's life. The word “synoptic” comes from the Greek word "synoptikos", and means “able to be seen together.” The word "gospel", means "good story", and is a combination of Latin evangelium and Greek euangelion (originally meaning "good news" or "good telling"). Even though they're each unique, the gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke share their own versions of many of the same portions of the life of Christ, often in the same order and with similar wording, but nuanced differences.
