Le monde du Dieu unique

Adam et Eve mangaient du fruit pour savoir du bien et du mal. Ainsi la vie mondaine nous fait-elle du bien et du mal. Mais le Christ est venu pour guerir et sauver. De nos jours on se guerit et se sauve, lorsqu'on appelle Jesus le Christ et lorsqu'on prie a Dieu chaque jour. Avec les pratiques spirituelles du St Ignace, on finit par savoir comment se comporter mieux avec les autres et comment se decider mieux et plus sagement pour soi-meme. A la fin de chaque chapitre, l'auteur William A Barry pose des questions vives pour que l'on se rende compte de l'important de chaque pratique.

My Best Friend's World

Jesus knew life hurts, and he healed. We, too, live God's dream by trusting God in prayer and becoming good friends with Christ. We end up being more sensitive talkers and listeners and knowing what to do for ourselves and the world. FINDING GOD IN ALL THINGS is written for the increasing numbers who practice the spiritual exercises of St Ignatius. Author William Barry ends the chapters with excellent questions to guide all readers, and his book links comfortably with Claire Cloninger's A PLACE CALLED SPIRITUALITY, Alan Jones' JOURNEY INTO CHRIST, Max Lucado's NO WONDER THEY CALL HIM THE SAVIOR, and M. Basil Pennington's DAILY WE FOLLOW HIM.
