Micheal O Muircheartaigh When I sit down now to pray it's more of a conversation. If you meet someone you know fairly well, you are hardly going to be sing-songing a set number of words at him. Alice Taylor In 2013, former RTE broadcaster John Quinn travelled around Ireland to meet a range of well-known personalities. He asked them questions about the God they believe in and why they believe; the origins of their belief; doubts they have encountered dealing with mystery; how central belief is to their life and work; prayer-life; the afterlife; faith mentors and much more. The answers he received were spontaneous, honest and rich in diversity.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. In 'Journeying Towards Reconciliation: A Song for Ireland', Ruth Patterson examines the possibilities for spiritual healing in Northern Ireland. Almost five years into the peace process, we have made progress in a great many areas. However, from one perspective it looks as if we are still at square one in dealing with some of the deeply rooted divisions. The call to reconciliation and to the belief that such a journey is possible is so deafening that it is not heard by many. Yet it is vital that we listen, that we hear and that we join in. Everyone has a part to play, no matter how small. Ruth Patterson believes that Ireland still has an opportunity to fulfil its destiny, still has a song to sing. That song will come from the restoration of relationships, between ourselves and God, and between the alienated parts of our own individual and collective identities.

Their stories will transport you to the olive groves near Bethlehem, the rubble of Gaza and into the law courts in Jerusalem. This book offers a hopeful counter-narrative in an otherwise bleak political landscape and celebrates the indomitable power of the human spirit in the midst of grave adversity. "These essays are voices of conscience which remind us that, in spite of so much suffering, the darkness is often pierced by the light of courageous Palestinian and Israeli human rights defenders. We take hope when we hear the voices of these extraordinary people." - Mairead Maguire, Nobel Peace Laureate and co-founder of the Community of Peace People "This inspirational work provides a much-needed reservoir of sanity, humanity and positivity to counter the forces of oppression and disrespect for the rule of law being displayed by major states on the world stage." Michael Mansfield QC, human rights barrister and member of the jury for the Russell Tribunal on Palestine and the judicial panel for the People's Tribunal on Iran "If there is to be peace in the Middle East it will be because human rights defenders have found hope in the face of the great adversity they face in their everyday work. This work gives us a glimpse of how that hope can be unearthed in these challenging times." - Michel Forst, United Nations Special Rapporteur on Human Rights Defenders.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Dermot Mansfield presents a clear and vivid account of the life of John Henry Newman, a man who was subject to much misunderstanding and suspicion in the Catholic Church.

Paperback. Zustand: Fair. The rapid economic, social and cultural changes that have occurred in Ireland over the last few decades has had an enormous impact on the beliefs and values of young people. This book is the culmination of years of research into the human, cultural and religious experiences that shape contemporary Irish youth. Using five personal case studies, as well as comprehensive figures from the latest surveys, the author begins by highlighting the stark reality of rapidly declining Mass attendance, disillusionment with the Catholic Church and the emergence of personalised belief systems, revealing the urgent need for positive action to prevent further decline.Dr Brennan then highlights new possibilities and offers some valuable insights gained from years of work in educational and pastoral ministry with young people. He identifies an openness among young people to the mystical and spiritual dimension of human experience, as well as a search for community; and he concludes by proposing a set of principles that encompass areas of mutual interest, which could be used to underpin a post-modern educational and pastoral approach to this new reality.
