Paperback. Zustand: Good. No era, short of the Reformation, has seen more changes in the Catholic church or in the Catholic priesthood than in the last fifty years. At least three times, it appears as if we have experienced a paradigm shift in the church, first, from the immigrant church in the 1940's and 50's; then, from Vatican I; and now, as things have once more shifted to a Catholicism in an age of total secularization.These thought experiments have been culled from those fifty years within the parish priesthood, fifty years of an interactive triangle of prayer, reading, and preaching, joined to fifty years of struggling to understand what has happened in these times.Their purpose is to examine the antidote for this secular era, namely, the Mass and Eucharist and how it can respond to that era.These essays or thought experiments are written to provide a spirituality for the 21st Century. They are offered not as a theology, even if there is theology within it, but as a thought processe to address living as Catholic in these strange, secular times.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Blood Brothers presents the essential background and vital facts of a wonderful Old Testament narrative. It's a vivid portrayal of the unlikely relationship between two men of royal blood: David and Jonathan. More than just an appealing Bible story, the account of their friendship is a rich source of spiritual truths meant to help us better understand our relationship with Christ. Blood Brothers will expand your spiritual vision to include some often overlooked scriptural principles which can allow you to experience a greater measure of the rewarding fullness of the Christian life. I found Blood Brothers biblical, relevant, and interesting. I have read and preached on the story of David and Jonathan many times in fifty-four years of ministry, and all I can say is if I had had this book earlier, I would have taught on the subject more effectively. That tells me this writing will be a real help to pastors, teachers, and individuals. -Dr. Charles T. Crabtree, president, Northpoint Bible College Sam Mason has been a pastor, evangelist, Bible teacher, gospel singer, and Christian broadcaster. He's also a published author and songwriter.

Hardback. Zustand: Good. As you know 'blood clot' means blood cells coming together to form a strong clot that forms and sticks together to keep the wound sealed enabling it to repair. The Parachute Regiment's 'blood clot' acts the same, whether downtown scrapping or in some far away country fighting alongside each other. Our maroon berets come together, they stick together, they close ranks forming the blood clot and fight against anything that comes their way. (Jake Scott) When the 3 Para battle group departed for Helmand Province, south Afghanistan, nobody really knew what to expect. Within a month of being on the ground the first of many contacts between the Taliban and British forces began. The British government and media were in shock - for the men on the ground it was what they were trained for. As weeks went on the fighting increased. Resources and manning were poor but for the Paras it was too late - it was back to basics, living in holes in the ground in 60 degree temperatures, often in small numbers and under constant attack from the Taliban. It looked as if it was going to be a long six months. 'Blood Clot' is a personal account of the Parachute Regiment's ferocious tour of duty in Helmand Province, Afghanistan 2006 by a man who was involved in the thick of the action. Born in 1981, Jake Scott joined the Parachute Regiment aged 17, and had already seen service around the world - including Iraq - before becoming part of a small reconnaissance team trained to operate behind enemy lines, known as 'the Patrols'. Jake and his mates probed, escorted and fought their way in and around some of the most dangerous areas in the whole of the Middle East - virgin Taliban country. After intense fighting against the odds, leaving dead Taliban soldiers in their wake and encountering some very near misses themselves, the Patrols platoon eventually ended their tour of duty. This is their story - the very beginning of the Afghan troubles in the south, the build up and lack of support and equipment in the initial stages, the close and dangerous fighting, the boredom of the open desert and the uncontrollable sadness of friends killed and injured around them. The Paras and their battle group arrived in small numbers in Helmand in 2006. They set the example for others to follow for many years to come - the aggressiveness of the airborne soldier when it was called for, fighting the Taliban on their turf, up close and personal.…
