Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you really want to hear what God is saying to you, first you have to slow down. That is what Reflections on the Word by acclaimed writer Ken Gire is designed to help you do. To create pauses for reflection, like park benches that allow you to stop and sit and reflect on your spiritual journey. To check the map. And your bearings. And to make any adjustments in your course. Each reflection begins with a Scripture reading. It's followed by a meditation that offers insight into the passage, written either by Ken Gire or other spiritual guides from around the world and across the centuries, including Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Catherine Marshall, Oswald Chambers, and Edith Schaeffer. The closing prayer is intended only to start you praying, in hopes that the Holy Spirit will bring other things to mind-other vistas He would have you see, other paths He would have you take, other precipices He would have you avoid. This is a companion book to two others in this new series by Ken Gire that emphasize the centuries-old tradition of reflective living-The Reflective Life, a spiritual primer, and Reflections on Your Life, a journal.

Hearing the Word of God includes Scripture readings for the Sunday, followed by a reflection on the reading, and concludes with "Praying with Scripture," a series of questions and meditations to guide readers in making a personal application of the reflection.

Book excerpt: It is a devils lie that words dont hurt. One word can carry such tremendous weight and such deep meaning. Look with me at some ordinary words, and some not so ordinary words. Bare your heart honestly before self and before God. See if you identify with any of my struggles. Share with me what has been a fruit of reflecting on His Word and not just mine. I know that I am not alone on this journey of faith. You are on your own journey. Let us reflect on His good Word. It is safe to trust Him enough to be honest with ourselves before Him. He is so good.

Book excerpt: None of us is guaranteed to live through tomorrow, and there is no secret knowledge on things we can or might do or avoid to make our lives easier or have purpose. Many people in our society who search for meaning in life and find none turn to drugs, alcohol, materialism, or power. Moreover, Islam is growing in popularity among the young and poor of the world, with many turning to the violent side of Islam. Our society and nation is experiencing moral decay with no easy solutions. Those who choose to follow Christ are seeing the beginning of persecution, as society is trying to silence any knowledge of Jesus. In this book there are several passages from Scripture, along with commentary on each, that we should consider and act upon, as they deal with many of the basic issues of life that we all must face as we go forward in life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is not only the Catholics who attend Sunday Mass, but also the priests who preach at Mass who feel overwhelmed by the three scripture readings in which for the most part only the first from the Old Testament and the third from the Gospel have any interconnection, while the second from the apostolic letters stands by itself. This book seeks to present the common theses that connect all three of the readings for Sundays and feasts of the Lord in the three year cycle of readings. The reflections here are meant to be theological and spiritual suggestions that the one who is preaching can develop further and from which he can select individual perspectives. Rather than seeking immediately concrete applications, Fr. von Balthasar attempts to elucidate the content which is immediately present in the passages. Organized by each Sunday and feast day of the liturgical year for years A, B, & C, these reflections are meant to be theological and spiritual suggestions that the one who is preaching can develop further and from which he can select individual perspectives.
