Padre José sempre teve carinho e dedicação aos fiéis da comunidade onde serve. Apaixonado por sua vocação, não perde uma oportunidade de socorrer os que mais precisam. Porém, nunca ia imaginar que essa atitude iria causar uma mudança brusca em sua vida. Certo dia, num ato impulsivo, ele resolve ajudar um rapaz, sem saber que está cometendo um grande erro. Criticado pelas autoridades e pela mídia, o sacerdote se vê obrigado a deixar sua paróquia.

Veronica Matthews is on a mission to get the Catholic Church to accept its share of blame for Father Paul Peña’s rape of her son. While Peña himself is remorseless, it’s salt on the wound that the Church she’s always loved won’t admit that institutional failures enabled repeated abuse of its flock. Instead, it acts like every other litigious corporation: offering carefully worded statements of sympathy while refuting any responsibility.

She yearns to convince Angela she is loved by God, despite her selfishness and destructive behavior, but in order for that to be authentic Eileen must learn to love her first, and that’s no easy task - especially after Angela causes a terrible tragedy.

El audiolibro "El Cantar de los Cantares" fue incorporado a la Biblia como el más bello poema de amor vivido por el rey Salomón y la hija del Faraón, acompañados por el coro de sus compañeros. A mediados del siglo XVI fray Luis de León tradujo el original hebreo, palabra a palabra, atendiendo solo a la "corteza de la letra", convencido de que cuanto más penetramos en la experiencia humana del amor, mejor comprendemos el sentido alegórico espiritual que se oculta en los versos.

Two hundred years of fascinating people and events, The Flying Crossbeam is a "predictive fiction" that introduces us to Thomas Bennett, a man who, through sharing his own private revelation, unknowingly changes the world. Written as a listenable but scholarly treatise by a man in 2226, the audiobook describes a world of brutal reality and miraculous beauty. Bennett's philosophy is that of the miniscule "now" which defines the entire universe and makes all things immediately accessible.

María ha dado a luz, y su primogénita llevará el nombre de Emanuel. Esto no debió ser así y Jehová se siente defraudado; sin embargo, Emanuel es su hija y crecerá para convertirse en una mujer nada dispuesta a obedecer y callar, como se espera de todas, e iniciará la ruta de aprendizaje, prédica, proselitismo y milagros que habrá de conducirla a la cruz.

In A Collection of Recollections: Between Here and There, Jen Schneider curates, collects, and shares bits and pieces of story and life. From “bus delays” to “knees on concrete” to “states of suspension”, the pieces prompt new ways of thinking about both language and lived experiences. Exploring a range of experiences from “rec time” to “things that go bump in the night”, the collection plays with time, form, and fashion in ways both experiential and experimental.

Ils forment une «parade clinquante», ce sont «des armes dangereuses, un baiser / à retardement». Enfants réels ou allégoriques, ils disparaissent sous nos yeux. Pour les attraper au moment crucial, Comment nous sommes nés déploie ses phrases amples, ses vers durs, monnaie qui brille au fond de la fontaine. Suspendus entre ciel et terre, entre deux époques; au bowling, au centre commercial, au ciné-parc, les personnages de ces poèmes arrivent à la fin de leur histoire.

Assets of Inspiration is a collection of poems I started writing back in 2020 during the pandemic to encourage and inspire others during a tough time for so many. I call them poems but they are really pure inspiration and motivation disguised as poetry. Little did I know it would send me on a path to write 3 books. This is my original work that started it all. I am re-working the original writing and expanding it to be more than just poems but also diving into the assets we discover through adversity, challenge, and struggle.

Aster of Ceremonies asks what rites we need now and how poetry, astir in the asters, can help them along. What is the relationship between fleeing and feeling? How can the voices of those who came before—and the stutters that leaven those voices—carry into our present moment, mingling with our own? When Ellis writes, “Bring me the stolen will / Bring me the stolen well,” his voice is a conduit, his “me” is many.

Ô l'Amour est l'essence éternelle de l'âme ! Il est le carburant qui fait briller la flamme... DIEU, personne ne l'a jamais vu, ou encore nul ne peut voir Dieu et vivre : c'est écrit dans la Bible. Pourtant, la parole de Dieu a été adressée aux êtres humains dans ce livre sacré qui contient les grandes révélations sur l'origine et le destin de l'humanité, et au-delà sur tout l'Univers dont elle fait partie. Écrit d'après le texte de la Bible, ce long poème propose de retracer l'ascension de l'âme vers Dieu à travers le mystère de la Création puis à travers le mystère de la Révélation.
