Some books and authors may be found controversial by some people. Yes, even in the Church, we may have some brethren that may raise concern for the orthodoxy of their writing. If you have any concerns in this regard about any suggested book in this list, contact Tom Legare at [email protected]. All books in this list have been read and found to be beneficial to the spiritual growth of the reader. Let the Holy Spirit give you what is meant for you and leave the rest to God to work out in His time, if at all.
This page gives our members an opportunity to choose and read a book that has been found to be beneficial in the life of another member, family or friend. We believe that all persons, beloved by our God, are called to grow in Christ, thus becoming a fuller member in the community at large, making the Body of Christ on earth more complete. We are all called to find that sacred place within which brings Life.
"We have to allow ourselves to be drawn into sacred space, often called liminality. All transformation takes place there. We have to move out of "business as usual" and remain on the "threshold" (limen, in Latin) where we are betweixt and between. The old world is left behind, but we're not sure of the new one yet. That's a good space. Get there often and stay as long as you can by whatever means possible. It's the realm where God can best get at us because we are out of the way.
In sacred space the old world is able to fall apart, and the new world is able to be revealed. If we don't find liminal space in our lives, we start idolizing normalcy. We end up believing it's the only reality, and our lives shrivel." Quoted from Everything Belongs, The Gift of Comtemplative Prayer by Fr Richard Rohr.
Understanding that our journeys differ as much as there are people, we ask that the Holy Spirit guides you in your selection, and that the wisdom intended for you in that selection blesses you. Submit your book titles (as below) to [email protected]
