Like millions of Christians, Dr. Larry Crabb has always considered his prayer life a weakness—"dull, intense only in crisis, occasionally meaningful and passionate but mostly lifelessly routine."

Something new and real and deep started happening in him, Crabb says, when he began practicing the four steps of what he calls the PAPA prayer—a revolutionary conversational approach to talking with and enjoying God.

St. Thomas Aquinas (1225 - 1274), one of the greatest philosophical minds of the church, has left us no formal treatise on mystical theology. Instead, his teachings on this subject have been collected from his various works. No such synthesis has been attempted in this book. Rather the editor has simply taken from the Summa Theologica the treatises on religion, on devotion, prayer, and the contemplative life, and presented them in an English dress.

The Interior Castle by St. Teresa of Avila presents a remarkable description of the entire spiritual life from the first release from mortal sin into sanctifying grace through the Mystical Marriage of the soul with Christ as a journey through what she called The Interior Castle. She sees the soul as a magnificent castle full of spacious and well-lit rooms or mansions, each of which leads deeper into the heart of the castle to the seat of the king.

FAIRACRES PUBLICATIONS 44 Two of the great Saints of the church are examined particularly by A. M. Allchin in this brief study of their choice of religious life.

FAIRACRES PUBLICATIONS 186 In recent years more and more Christians in the West have been discovering the many blessings of the Jesus Prayer. This prayer originated among the Desert Fathers and Mothers of the Eastern Mediterranean around fifteen hundred years ago, and for centuries has inspired and enabled Christians of the Orthodox Church to find a deeper relationship with God through the continual rhythmic repetition of the short prayer, ‘Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me’. In this book, James F. Wellington tells the story of his own journey with the prayer, highlighting...

God knows all things and there is nothing that is hidden from Him. Therefore, if the future is already in existence and is a settled reality then there is no doubt that God knows it exhaustively. Yet, what if the future does not exist as the past did and the present currently does? Is it necessary for an omniscient God to have exhaustive knowledge of a non-existent entity? In his book, "Is the Future Set in Stone?," Pastor Troy J. Edwards presents a thorough examination of the Scriptures, revealing the fact that the future is NOT in existence until it happens. This truth is important to ...

Decades before Vatican II called for the sanctification of the laity, St. Elizabeth of the Trinity prophetically claimed that holiness is not exclusively the domain of priests and nuns but is truly for everyone. God created the human soul to be a special channel of His grace on earth and to serve as a unique image of His love. Few saints have spoken to hearts as acutely as St. Elizabeth of the Trinity, who has helped even the busiest, weariest, and most distracted of us create an inner chamber within our souls where we can rest in God’s peace and love.
