After twenty years, We Drink from Our Own Wells remains a classic expression of Latin American spirituality by a pioneer of liberation theology.

His aim is to reflect on the contemporary "road to holiness" - the passage of a people "through the solitude and dangers of the desert, as it carves out its own way in the following of Jesus Christ. This spiritual experience is the...

ISBN: 9781573122702 / Angielski / Miękka / 119 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Taking its title from a line of a poem written by Alfred Tennyson, Beyond the Broken Lights is a thoughtful and inviting look at our questions and the need for clarity in the depths of the mystery of God.

Poole examines these broken lights, and tells us that since there are no other lights - no perfect,...

In one of the church's darkest hours, Teresa of Avila (1515-1582 allowed neither illness nor threat of death to stop her from calling men and women to walk in the peace and light of Christ.

In A Life of Prayer, she invites believers to enrich their interior lives...
