Book excerpt: "When the author's father died, Marc Jolley decided that he needed to write something for his sons about what was important in his life. The result, while not a full autobiography, deals with three things in his life that have shaped it more than others; it is about what he loves: baseball, God, and family, but not necessarily in that order all of the time. This memoir, then, is about what the author "knows" and to that extent, each sentence is true in the best tradition of Hemingway. Safe at Home is both a phrase used in baseball and an expression that captures the importance of family." "This story is about how faith, family, and baseball have intersected in his life, an intersection that occurs at home. Critical moments of Jolley's life have seen God, baseball, and family impact at very important times in his life. Whether losing game after game in little league, watching the World Series with his father, or quitting the high school team, the presence of family and his faith shape how he overcomes disappointment or celebrates the sheer joy of playing. Collecting baseball cards in 1968 provides him with a lesson in race and his mother's faith that opens his eyes to a world he never knew."--BOOK JACKET.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vincent Donovan is best known as the author of the influential bestseller, Christianity Rediscovered (1978). This new book contains the monthly letters he wrote home from Tanzania between 1957 and 1973. These letters give us previously unknown stories: how Donovan met Julius Nyerere, first prime minister of Tanzania; how a group of Protestants attempted to kill him; of his early disastrous attempt to hear confession in Swahili; of the relationship between Donovan's work and Vatican II; and much about the mysterious Sonjo tribe, among whom Donovan spent his last years in Tanzania. They also give insights, from the hilarious to the poignant, into Donovan the man in relationship to his family, his missionary colleagues, and the Maasai. Copies of original photographs are also included. Most significantly, the letters show Donovan's evolution over the years from a young missionary who was passionate about acquiring land for church buildings, into a mature visionary convinced that the only job of the missionary is to preach the gospel. A concluding essay looks at the legacy of Donovan, thirty-five years later, with contributions from three Spiritan missionaries who continue to live out his legacy in Tanzania and elsewhere today. Finally, the essay looks at Donovan's continuing influence on contemporary renewal movements in North America and in Britain. Those who have been inspired by Christianity Rediscovered--missiologists, church renewal leaders, and students of Gospel and culture--will find much here to delight and to challenge.

Book excerpt: Letters from India is the story of Beryl Girard, a remarkable woman, written in her own hand in her letters home. Her simple story is played out before a vast background of political intrigue, the ending of the World War II in Europe and in the Pacific, the beginning of the Atomic Age, the reconstruction of Europe, the evolution of India from a member of the British Empire to independence, political assassinations, riots and wars between Hindus and Moslems, the establishment of Pakistan, and continued violence around the world. It is also the story of two families, one in America and one in India. Her family in India was an indigenous tribe, the Korkus. Her American family lived in North Dakota and Minnesota, mostly teachers and farmers. She lived a divided life between her two loves. After 38 years in India, she retired to Minneapolis, Minnesota and was embraced by her family, her church and her community. She was content and busy there. But to the end of her life, she heard Indias siren song, Come Home!

Book excerpt: The letters of Monsignor Firmin M. Schmidt are a firsthand account of the experiences of an administrator of a Capuchin Franciscan mission in the early 1960s. Written almost sixty years ago to Mary C. Schmidt, his sister, the letters offer a singular perspective regarding missionary work in the New Guinea Highlands. Letters to Mary: A Missionary Writes Home from New Guinea, 1959-1963 presents a selection of fifty-five of the many letters he wrote to Mary. Having served as a priest of the Order of Friars Minor (OFM), Capuchin, Fr. Firmin M. Schmidt was ordained a Monsignor and appointed the head of the Capuchin Franciscan Mission in Papua New Guinea in 1959, spending thirty-six years administering the Mission. The Papuan Highlands were among the last places on earth to be subject to the influences of Europeans, with parts opened up by Australians only after World War II. The letters provide information about the numerous challenges facing the head of a Catholic mission in the Highlands, including staffing, travel in mountainous terrain to outstations, being accessible only by air, etc. The letters also tell about his new experiences with the Papuans, including details about their culture. In addition to the letters, the book provides an introduction that tells of Msgr. Firmin's family background and education. In addition, three appendices follow the letters: an account of the founding of the Capuchin Franciscan Mission in Papua, anthropological information about the culture of the Papuans, and a brief history of European contact/colonization in Papua.
