HABEMUS PAPAM - BENEDICT XVI
Living the Mysteries, A Guide for Unfinished Christians by Scott Hahn and Mike Aquilina
Living the Mysteries is a daily devotional--and more--for the period from Easter to Pentecost. Each day features: a brief meditation; a short passage from that day's Mass readings; a reflection on the reading adapted from the writings of the Fathers of the Church; a particular focusing on a relevant point of the mystical or moral life; and a plan with practical applications for everyday prayer and living. This is a thoughtful, practical, and sure-to-be appreciated gift for any new Catholic! (And a great choice for longtime Catholics, too.)
Spirit-Led Mystagogy from the Ancient Masters Until we get to heaven, we're all unfinished Christians
There are no "self-made" success stories in the spiritual life. No do-it-yourself kits for aspiring saints. That's why Living the Mysteries is ideal for a family member, friend, or fellow parishioner who recently received the sacraments of initiation -- baptism, confirmation, and the Eucharist. That's why it's perfect for a lifelong Catholic, too.
The early Church had a process in which a teacher guided seekers through stages of inquiry and purification, culminating in a final phase called "mystagogy" -- MIST-a-go-gee -- "the revelation of the mysteries."
Now eight of the early Church's greatest teachers can be your guides as Living the Mysteries persents the wisdom and insights of St. Ambrose, St. Augustine, St. Basil, St. Clement of Alexandria, St. Cyril of Jerusalem, St. Gregory of Nyssa, St. John Chrysostom, and St. Leo the Great.
