“New Testament and Psalms - Pauline Edition”
Pope Francis has asked that we each carry a copy of the New Testament with us, dipping into it as often as possible in order to feed our souls. This edition of the 'New Testament and Psalms - Pauline Edition’ is perfect for making this possible. Truly pocket or bag-sized, the book is beautifully bound and with a leather cover and gold edging, completed with two marker ribbons. The translation is the NAB Revised Edition, so it is very easy to read and think about. The pages are a rich cream colour and the print is very readable even to those of us a little older. Additionally, each book of the New Testament is complete at the end with a comprehensive Notes section, as Scriptural references throughout.
This book has proven to be my ‘go-to’ and ‘carry-around’ edition of the Psalms and New Testament, and I recommend it highly. It is also exceptionally well-priced and would make a perfect gift for someone else or for yourself.

"As an autistic priest and missionary to the autism community, Fr. Matthew Schneider shares insights on communicating with God in a way comfortable for the autistic mind. God Loves the Autistic Mind is filled with inspiring accounts of autistics' journeys of faith. Fr. Matthew provides fifty-two devotions to enrich our faith and communion with God. As a theologian and minister with autism, I highly recommend God Loves the Autistic Mind to those who desire an intimate relationship with the Father and have a passion for inclusion."

“The Mysteries Of The Rosary - Mysteries Of Joy, Sorrow, Glory And Light” - David Konstant
David Konstant’s little book on 'The Mysteries Of The Rosary’ is the perfect companion to the beads themselves. Just 63 pages long, the little book fits perfectly into a pocket but is durable enough to withstand regular use and to last. Konstant provides original meditations for each of the twenty Mysteries of the Rosary - these are clear, concise, very understandable and applicable to the many varied circumstances of life.
Of all the similar books of Rosary meditations I have, this is the one I return to time and time again, always finding something new and inspiring. This book comes highly recommended.

Tom Wright presents a collection of short passages that have been organised to encourage readers to reflect more deeply on what God's kingdom coming on earth as in heaven might look like, through the lens of Easter. Why Easter? Because Jesus's resurrection is the starting point for every day, week, month, and year
of Christian living.
Using "signposts" such as beauty, power, justice, truth, love, this book invites the reader to a new experience of time, within that of the Liturgical seasons. The signposts point in new and deeper ways to the reality of God's new world, the Easter reality, and the consequent renewal of human life.

“Where and how do you find peace in your daily life?”
In this book well known individuals including TV presenter Miriam O’Callaghan, ex-rugby player Johnny Sexton, actor Tommy Tiernan, and women’s health advocate Vicky Phelan among many others, give us a glimpse of the space they create to find that so desired inner peace. Each individual has something different to offer. The material here is diverse and wide-ranging. All the contributions are a testament to an inner life that needs to be sustained, especially in times of crisis. Sr Stan gathered these writings to help people understand what others do and how they bring peace into their lives every day and thus encourage all those longing for it.

If any book beautifully captures the words of Scriptures in Jeremiah 1:5 'Before I formed you in the womb I knew you', it is this one.
In a simple child-friendly language, Frank Fraser demonstrates the importance and place of each person in the universe. It equally emphasises God's love for each one of his children. Fraser couples his very relevant message with stunning illustrations! It is definitely a lovely gift book!

This book retells traditional and modern stories from different parts of the world. The values explored include establishing good relationships, treating others well, perseverance, responding to bullying, team-working, and many other society and Christian values. It includes interactive elements which work alongside the stories to encourage children to think, engage, and make connections with their lives.
The book also includes optional links to Bible references and pause moments to think about situations and others with God.
It is a perfect gift book for a child! As the child explores the setting, characters, and situation in these stories, thinking about how they would react in the same situation, he or she develops empathy and respect for others.
