Download or read book Periodic Chart of Virtuous Living for Teens written by Rev. Fred R. Gaglia, Ph.D. and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2016-10-13 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a priest and a biologist, Fr. Fred Gaglia found the periodic chart of elements a wonderful expression of the order and adaptability of nature at the chemical level. After many years of teaching the beauty and order of God's creation, Fr. Gaglia began to see a relationship between the periodic table-this order of the elements into groups and functions-and the order and functions of humans for their spiritual growth. He took the symbols of the elements of nature and applied them to another pattern of order, in our lives as children of God. These can be used, by metaphor or analogy, as symbols of the way we can live ordered, virtuous lives. Fr. Gaglia shares his message eloquently, bringing the beauty of science and spirit into one enlightening book. "With Periodic Chart of Virtuous Living for Teens - One Element at a Time, Fr. Fred Gaglia has provided a way for young people to have a spiritual and moral parallel to their study of science and technology. It is a way to enkindle and motivate their search for the virtuous life, by relating concepts of the periodic chart with their growth in the spiritual life." -Bishop James D. Conley.

Book excerpt: Sometimes a "Christian upbringing" can go pretty wrong. This is about that. Strict, impersonal, unloving, image-conscious, status-focused legalism is something Jesus addressed pretty directly, as did the apostle Paul. This is also about growing up locked away inside a Christian community that worked like that. Darkly insightful, and told with a lot of humour, with personal statements from a large number of people with problematic Christian upbringings.

But the ritual was more powerful than they could’ve imagined, reigniting the powers of not only the maji, but of nobles with magic ancestry, too. Now, Zélie struggles to unite the maji in an Orïsha where the enemy is just as powerful as they are. But when the monarchy and military unite to keep control of Orïsha, Zélie must fight to secure Amari's right to the throne and protect the new maji from the monarchy's wrath. With civil war looming on the horizon, Zélie finds herself at a breaking point: she must discover a way to bring the kingdom together or watch as Orïsha tears itself apart.

Download or read book The Art of Spiritual Warfare written by Venatius Oforka and published by Sophia Institute Press. This book was released on 2018-06-21 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the beginning of time, a fierce spiritual battle has raged between the forces of good and evil. Today the spiritual entities of wickedness are winning, burdening countless souls in a world lacerated by evil. To claim victory, God is calling us to engage in spiritual warfare as the only way to save the world from the desolation that is sure to come. In these pages, theologian Venatius Oforka explains that we are part of a spiritual web through which God acts to save souls. No longer does God create out of nothing. Instead, He achieves His purposes through the prayers and actions we pour in. To win such a sophisticated war, Oforka introduces us to the supernatural weapons of war and how we can shape the events that affect our earthly and eternal destiny. From Father Oforka, you will learn: How the ministry of intercession can bring salvation to millions of hopeless soulsHow to frustrate the Devil’s evil schemesHow to free yourself from the encumbrances of the flesh so you can fully participate in spiritual warfareThe two basic actions Christians must undertake to survive evil daysThe profound advantage you have over Satan and his worksHow and why God needs intercessors to save soulsWhy God requires us to act before He steps inThe critical role of the angels and the saints in fighting evilThe importance of suffering in spiritual warfareWhy God needs our prayers to make His Kingdom come The Art of Spiritual Warfare is the one book you need to awaken our world from its spiritual hibernation and to exercise the awesome privilege of working with God in the realization of His Kingdom.
Download or read book The Personal Path to Virtue written by Carolyn Ragodos and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2014-08-20 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are You the Ruby Woman? The word virtuous means high moral excellence. As you look into becoming the Virtuous Woman, you must realize she is of great value to God, and – more importantly – she is very rare. Rubies are the rarest and most valuable of all gems and rubies are exceedingly fragile. The miner that finds them must have great skill in cutting and removing the ruby because it is easily fractured and lost when handled incorrectly. However, when the ruby is mined, cut with precision, and placed in a setting, its strength rivals that of a diamond. You are the precious ruby in this story, and your value to God is far above the value of many rubies. The Master Miner, God, has found you, loves you, and desires for you to be set in a ring to show off how rare and beautiful you really are.

Download or read book Rooting Your Teen in the Faith written by Kim Cameron-Smith and published by Our Sunday Visitor. This book was released on 2023-01-03 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While Catholic teens drifting away from the Faith is unfortunately an increasingly common occurrence, it’s not inevitable. We as parents are uniquely qualified to lead our teens to a relationship with Christ. During the difficult teenage years, parents — not youth ministers, teachers, or parish programs — play a pivotal role in our children’s faith development. In Rooting Your Teen in the Faith, family coach, catechist, author, and mom Kim Cameron-Smith empowers parents to shepherd their teens, guiding them to discover their mission, deepen their faith, and discern the truth about their identity and purpose. There is no perfect blueprint for evangelizing teenagers, but there is the right relationship: the parent-child bond. If we lean into our call to lead, inspire, free, and transform our children, by the end of the teenage years, they will be equipped to respond to God’s movements in their lives.
