Don’t believe the lie that Christianity is supposed to be powerless!

Too often, in the here and now, we settle for spiritual stagnancy and powerlessness in the here and now.

Weaving keen cultural analysis with his psychological and religious insights, Nouwen has come up with a balanced and creative theology of service that begins with the realization of fundamental woundedness in human nature. Emphasizing that which is in humanity common to both minister and believer, this woundedness can serve as a source of strength and healing when counseling others.

We hear the voices of the early Church Fathers even today. Their teachings, their guidance, their insights, and their sacrifice shaped the Catholic Church. They defined the canon of Scripture. They developed our creeds and forms of worship. They defined Christianity's distinctive moral sense. But who were they? What can we learn from their ancient teachings? What can the Fathers teach the twenty-first century—about holiness, culture, faith, and the Gospel.

The Light of Christ provides an accessible presentation of Catholicism that is grounded in traditional theology, but engaged with a host of contemporary questions or objections. Inspired by the theologies of Irenaeus, Thomas Aquinas, and John Henry Newman, and rooted in a post-Vatican II context, Fr. Thomas Joseph White presents major doctrines of the Christian religion in a way that is comprehensible for non-specialists: knowledge of God, the mystery of the Trinity, the Incarnation and the atonement, the sacraments and the moral life, eschatology and prayer.

This engaging three-day retreat draws young hearts into the Eucharistic love that set St. Carlo Acutis (1991-2006) ablaze, inviting listeners to encounter Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament and carry His light into the world. Inspired by the Road to Emmaus and the witness of this modern teen saint, it features practical reflections, saintly wisdom, and real-life Eucharistic miracles that help children, teens, families, and catechists understand what it means to center their lives on Christ in the Eucharist and share His love in a world that desperately needs it.

In this introduction to the Doctrine and Covenants, Media Studies scholar Mason Kamana Allred focuses our vision on practices and principles of seeing. He looks at how looking itself is a unique devotional mode in Latter-day Saint belief. His reading of the Doctrine and Covenants collects theological statements about and experiences of spiritual vision and emphasizes how they are often activated through natural vision and earthly commitment in ways that illuminate how to navigate our modern circumstances.

Redemption for the dead taps into the deepest purposes of creation and the atonement. It encompasses individuals’ development, the purpose of existence, and the grand scope of God’s love. Revelations in the Doctrine and Covenants illuminate Malachi’s prophecy about Elijah and the turning of humanity’s hearts to one another. Those revelations combined with the lived experience of early Latter-day Saints highlight the joy embedded in the theology about baptisms for the dead. Exploring these early revelations and experiences reminds readers of God’s abundant love and careful attention.

Revelation is the indispensable part of the Restoration. It is central to our existence as the restored Church of Jesus Christ, and it can come to us in a multitude of different ways. Throughout his life, Joseph Smith revealed that speaking is a part of who God is. He laid a foundation for a theology of what this book calls “revelatory abundance.” Common themes and modes of revelation are modeled in the Doctrine and Covenants and practically enacted in the lives of the early Saints.

Law, for many of us, is a scary word. It conjures imposing images—robed judges with imperious gavels or Lady Justice, blindfolded, with her implacable sword and scales. Even in a religious context—perhaps especially in a religious context—many of us associate law instinctively with divine judgment and justice, retribution and eternal punishment. Many of us think of law as an unrelenting standard against which we fall endlessly short. Law, on this view, is the enemy against which we need grace to defend us.

A tremendous problem in contemporary society is that too many people, including Christians, are living with toxic fires burning in their hearts and minds and are deceived about it. Literally millions around the world struggle with the fires of fear, anxiety, depression, addictions, sickness, unforgiveness, religion, distractions, and more. These things keep people from fulfilling their God-given purpose of expanding the kingdom of heaven on earth. The devil uses these fires to keep us distracted in cycles of sin and constant defeat.

Over and over again, God’s people have invited foreign influences into their hearts and homes, embracing the “slow stain of the world.” From the Israelites at Sinai, to the early Christians in Rome, to the Saints in Missouri, the scriptural record is brimming with cautionary tales of covenant communities undone by worldly temptations. Yet we are not helpless spectators to these tragedies; we have the power to learn from their mistakes and guard ourselves against the subtle pull of false ideas and misguided practices.
