How Big is Your God? The Freedom to Experience the Divine asks “Do you really know God or just about God?”  This is a fascinating book on spirituality that has significant implications for those doing evangelization.  It can be obtained most cheaply at Amazon.com and you can view a 25 minute video of the author, Fr. Paul Coutinho, SJ at http://www.mycatholicvoice.com/media  Consider sponsoring a book club on “How Big is Your God?” which is especially relevant for ministry with young interfaith couples, as well as young adults, personal spiritual reading, or ecumenical prayer and discussion circles.  Review through Loyola Books www.loyolabooks.org or www.Amazon.com

 

Longing for the Holy by Ron Rohlheiser is for those who want to enrich their sense of the presence of God.  Based on the gentle spiritual guidance and practical wisdom of best-selling author, Fr. Ronald Rolheiser, OMI, this resource is designed for either a small group faith-sharing experience or for individual reflection.  Attending to the cultural challenges that keep us from realizing our true desire, it considers the important themes of church community, justice, sexuality, the practices of the spiritual life, and being a mystic of the everyday. This resource can be obtained through Renew International www.renewintl.org.

 

Organic Outreach for Ordinary People: Sharing Good News Naturally by Kevin Harney.  Many faithful people want to grow in faith by sharing it.  But how?  This non-denominational resource includes activities, prayers, reflections, and questions to encourage the evangelist in each of us. It allows each person to start where God has placed them and discover their own style of evangelizing, naturally.  Visit Zondervan Books www.Zondervan.com or www.Amazon.com for the best price.
