Download or read book The Front Page written by Christopher Gleeson and published by ATF Press. This book was released on 2011-12-31 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For most of the front pages that follow, my inspiration has been twofold - to elaborate some touching story from my everyday life experience, however banal, and use it as a stepping stone to illustrate how we might more easily find God and be found by God in all things. Central to Ignatian spirituality is the belief that our world is transparent, reflecting constantly a God who works in the depths of everything. St Ignatius Loyola saw the world as very user friendly. For him every part of it, from the stars in the heavens to the flowers of the field, elevated his mind and heart to God. In Ribadeneira's Life of Ignatius we learn how even the smallest things could make his spirit soar upwards to God, who even in the smallest things is Greatest. At the sight of a little plant, a leaf, a flower or a fruit, an insignificant worm or a tiny animal Ignatius could soar free above the heavens and reach through into things which lie beyond the senses. (Life I11 5381) Seeking and finding God in all things works on the belief that God is already present in our world and it is our task to uncover his presence and help others to do the same. It is very different to the old, perhaps arrogant, concept of ministry which talked about bringing God to the world.

Book excerpt: Golf has come a long way from the Highlands of Scotland. It has grown to become a multi-billion dollar a year industry and has captivated the interest of people of all ages, all over the world.

This isn't the first book written to draw analogies between the game of golf and the game of life, but it is unique in that the author has included some of his own life stories. During the time that he worked on a beautiful golf course as it was being built, he felt prompted to write down some of the insights and comparisons to life, from a Christian perspective, that God was showing him. This little book is simply meant to be a vehicle to direct heart and mind from earthly things onto things above. Jesus is still speaking to the hearts of people today. Read on, and see what He is saying to you!
