More and more people-- especially millennials-- are turning to religion as a source of comfort and solace in our increasingly chaotic world. Rather than live a cloistered life of seclusion, the Daughters of Saint Paul actively embrace social media to evangelize, collectively calling themselves the #MediaNuns. In this collective memoir, eight of these Sisters share their own discernment journeys, struggles and crises of faith that they have overcome, and episodes from their daily lives. They offer practical takeaways and tips for living a more spiritually-fulfilled life, no matter your religious affiliation. -- adapted from jacket

Throughout this compelling book channelled by Robin L. Dow, Jesus corrects vital misinterpretations of His teachings in the Bible. He also corrects many religious beliefs and provides us with clarity of vision about the true nature of Him, ourselves, and God. According to some, God is both almighty love and wrath, and Jesus explains why He cannot be anything except love. Jesus makes it clear that we have individually created our world as it presently is, with our thoughts, attitudes and behaviour, and if we want a peaceful future for humanity and our world, we need to open our hearts to view ourselves and mankind in a radically different manner. We are provided with all the tools we need to change ourselves and thus our future into abiding peace, love and happiness, and Jesus outlines how truly simple it is to achieve this.. We are left in no doubt about the need to act NOW. The feeling of Jesus all encompassing love for mankind is intensely palpable throughout the book, as is His depth of understanding and compassion for us in our human frailty and confusion. Always encouraging, inspiring and ever our devoted loving companion, Jesus urges us to love all as He does unconditionally and without exception.

This authoritative reference work investigates the roots of the Sacred Harp, the central collection of the deeply influential and long-lived southern tradition of shape-note singing. David Warren Steel and Richard H. Hulan concentrate on the regional culture that produced the Sacred Harp in the nineteenth century and delve deeply into history of its authors and composers. They trace the sources of every tune and text in the Sacred Harp, from the work of B. F. White, E. J. King, and their west Georgia contemporaries who helped compile the original collection in 1844 to the contributions by various composers to the 1936 to 1991 editions. Drawing on census reports, local histories, family Bibles and other records, rich oral interviews with descendants, and Sacred Harp Publishing Company records, this volume reveals new details and insights about the history of this enduring American musical tradition. David Waren Stel is an associate professor of music and southern culture at the University of Mississippi. Richard H. Hulan is an independent scholar of American folk hymnody.

Suffering has redemptive value when we recognize God's mighty Hand in the events and offer our day to Him. Accepting God's will in all suffering is a sacrificial prayer by sharing in the sacrifice at Calvary. Christine Haapala's tenth Scriptural prayer book encourages us to allow the Holy Spirit, the Sanctifier, to shape and mold our hearts into an imitation of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Through reflective and meditative selections from Sacred Scripture, this daily journey is a call to conversion when we encounter the Theological Virtues [Faith, Hope, Love], the Gifts of the Holy Spirit [Fear of the Lord, Knowledge, Piety, Counsel, Fortitude, Wisdom and Understanding], and the Fruit of the Holy Spirit [Charity, Joy, Peace, Patience, Faithfulness, Goodness, Generosity, Gentleness, Kindness, Modesty, Self-Control, and Chastity].
