En un deslumbrante relato de pasion, Trece Sentidos de Victor Villasenor continua la estipulante epopeya familiar que empezo con el ampliamente reconocido bestseller Lluvia de Oro. Trece Sentidos abre con las bodas de oro del ya mayor Salvador y su elegante esposa, Lupe. Cuando un joven sacerdote le pide a Lupe que repita la sagrada frase ceremonial ‘respetar y obedecer,’ Lupe se sorprende a si misma al contestar–!No, no voy a decir obedecer! !Como se atreve! !Ah, no! !Usted no me va a hablar asi despues de cincuenta anos de matrimonio y sabiendo lo que se!–. Asi, la familia Villasenor se ve forzada a examinar el amor que Lupe y Salvador han compartido por tantos a nos: un amor universal, entrnable y sincero que eventualmente dara energia e inspiracion a la pareja en su vejez.

Dirty Little Secret
$18.99This is the story of a young pastor’s journey to help those inside the world of porn. Pornography has reached epidemic proportions in our culture and in our churches. As a youth pastor in Southern California, Craig Gross noticed two recurring themes among those he cared for-a struggle with pornography and a lack of action from the church. Boldly and courageously, Craig decided to address the root of the problem by going directly to the source. As he spent time with those in the porn industry, he discovered these people weren’t the enemy-they just needed to meet Jesus. In The Dirty Little Secret Craig takes his readers on a journey through his ministry, XXXchurch.com, a website devoted to fight porn. As he meets people in the industry and those addicted to porn, Craig shows us a very real, human face-the face of our brothers, sisters, fathers, mothers, pastors, and friends. His experience created in him a passion to reach the hurting and abandoned in all dimensions of life-physical, emotional, and spiritual. Craig’s story may inspire the same thing in you.

Addiction And Grace

Addiction & Grace is a compassionate and wise treatment of this important topic, offering a critical yet hopeful guide to a place of freedom based on contemplative spirituality. This Plus edition includes two additional essays by Gerald May not included in the hardcover version.

Gods Politics
$14.95Since when did believing in God and having moral values make you pro-war, pro-rich, and pro-Republican? And since when did promoting and pursuing a progressive social agenda with a concern for economic security, health care, and educational opportunity mean you had to put faith in God aside?
While the Right in America has hijacked the language of faith to prop up its political agenda-an agenda not all people of faith support-the Left hasn’t done much better, largely ignoring faith and continually separating moral discourse and personal ethics from public policy. While the Right argues that God’s way is their way, the Left pursues an unrealistic separation of religious values from morally grounded political leadership. The consequence is a false choice between ideological religion and soulless politics.
The effect of this dilemma was made clear in the 2004 presidential election. The Democrats’ miscalculations have left them despairing and searching for a way forward. It has become clear that someone must challenge the Republicans’ claim that they speak for God, or that they hold a monopoly on moral values in the nation’s public life. Wallis argues that America’s separation of church and state does not require banishing moral and religious values from the public square. In fact, the very survival of America’s social fabric depends on such values and vision to shape our politics-a dependence the nation’s founders recognized.
God’s Politics offers a clarion call to make both our religious communities and our government more accountable to key values of the prophetic religious tradition-that is, make them pro-justice, pro-peace, pro-environment, pro-equality, pro-consistent ethic of life (beyond single issue voting), and pro-family (without making scapegoats of single mothers or gays and lesbians). Our biblical faith and religious traditions simply do not allow us as a nation to continue to ignore the poor and marginalized, deny racial justice, tolerate the ravages of war, or turn away from the human rights of those made in the image of God. These are the values of love and justice, reconciliation, and community that Jesus taught and that are at the core of what many of us believe, Christian or not. In the tradition of prophets such as Martin Luther King Jr., Dorothy Day, and Desmond Tutu, Wallis inspires us to hold our political leaders and policies accountable by integrating our deepest moral convictions into our nation’s public life.
