Bøger af Marie Curley

The Anima Christi, or Soul of Christ, has been prayed by Christians since the fourteenth century. Sister Marie Paul Curley, FSP, delves into its richness as she reflects on the prayer, the Eucharistic imagery within, and its application for every Catholic. Each chapter contains a section that could be used as a guided holy hour for an individual or a group, or just read as further reflection. With practical applications, thoughtful meditations, and centuries' worth of tradition, Soul of Christ: Meditations on a Timeless Prayer is designed to bring you closer to Christ.

Combining the art of dramatic storytelling with biography, Church history, and Catholic teaching and belief, this collection of stories features saints from different eras, continents, and walks of life. Each brief story highlights a particular aspect of or challenge in the saints life and connects it to a part of the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Showing how real people lived the eight beatitudes and seven sacraments, their stories reveal the richness of the Christian life and offer inspirational models of the faith. Along with their biographical portraits, each included saint features a prayer, a fact box, notes, lesser-known facts, and a quote from their writings. A Readers Guide contains personal reflection and group discussion questions and directs readers to relevant parts of the Bible and the Catechism.
