Taking time for prayer can be a challenge among the distractions we face in what many are beginning to term "the digital age." Still, we all have a natural need for spiritual guidance, and it is prayer that fills the void in our hearts. The Church has a rich prayer life, and though we are always seeking new ways to interact with God, some of the "core" prayers that have been taught through the centuries can be rediscovered in our context today. Let us remember some of these traditional prayers with fondness while re-igniting and revitalizing our spirit of prayer through these timeless Catholic Prayers. Beloved: A Collection of Timeless Catholic Prayers is a book of traditional catholic prayers with accompanying scriptures which help focus the reader while quieting their minds from outside distractions.

Nathan Foster has lived with the spiritual disciplines all his life, but has had to find his own unique path. As he sought - sometimes rebelliously - to develop habits that would enable him to live more like Jesus, he encountered problems both personal and universal. Gradually he discovered creative new ways to practice disciplines such as fasting, meditation and simplicity, to live as Jesus lived. With a foreword from Nathan's father Richard, who provides a fresh introduction to each of the disciplines, The Making of an Ordinary Saint invites us to be formed into the likeness of Christ's character.
