From the introduction of the book:Thank the Beneficent God that the third book in the Stories of Sages series, titled Out of Charity, Not Out of Duty, has been published. Those familiar with my spoken and written works will recognize that the concepts of Rights and Duty have long been a central concern for me. I can confidently assert that my work was the first to elucidate the opposition between these categories in terms of Tradition versus Modernity and Despotism versus Liberalism. I have also emphasized that what is commonly referred to as Liberalism is best understood and interpreted as the Rights-Centered School. The primary distinction between traditional and modern human beings lies in their self-perception: the former view themselves as duty-bound and rights-oriented, while the latter see themselves as entitled to rights. This shift in perspective explains why modern individuals prioritize their lives over their beliefs, considering religion to be their right rather than their duty. It remains my conviction that Ethics and State in the modern world are rights-oriented, whereas, in the traditional world, they are duty-oriented.

When the Beasts Spoke Blessing: Being an Orthodox Meditation on Saints and Animals is a profoundly spiritual collection that invites readers on a unique poetic journey through the natural world, as seen through the lens of Orthodox Christian tradition. Spanning land, water, and sky, this book illuminates the ancient, symbiotic relationship between saints and wild kin, presenting a series of Psalms of the Wild that echo the liturgical depth of Orthodox hymnography. Each chapter pairs the hagiographical narrative of a revered saint-from St. Kevin communing with blackbirds to St. Brendan journeying with whales-with a contemplative psalm, reflecting on the harmony of creation and humanitys call to ecological stewardship. Through rich, elevated language, this work transcends mere nature writing, offering a cosmic liturgy where every creature, transfigured in divine light, joins in praising the Creator, fostering a deeper understanding of our place within a deified cosmos.

There is a paradox in the United States and Western society. You can get over 20 different versions of the Holy Bible in print, audio, digital downloads, computer programs and phone apps. We have more Bibles available today than at any other time in human history. Yet, Biblical literacy is at lows not seen since, perhaps, the start of the Reformation! A few examples of this ignorance are in order.Sodom and Gomorrah were husband and wife according to over half of graduating high school seniors.God helps those who help themselves is in the Bible as per 80% of Americans.Less than 50% of adults can name all four gospels of the New Testament.Six out of ten Americans cannot name five of the Ten Commandments.Given that our culture is, in large part, based on the principles and precepts found in the Bible, this is sad. However, the church today is only slightly better than society as a whole. This is tragic! There was a time when all Christian denominations had a catechism. It was basic instruction in the Bible and Christian doctrine.For at least a generation, sound Biblical doctrine has been minimized and/or ignored with the net results being scores of Christians in spiritual diapers. It is like trying to ride a bicycle with a defective front wheel, at best, and no front wheel, at worst. Either way, you do not get to the desired destination.Biblical doctrine is the front wheel of bicycle of the Christian Life; it provides direction. (The Holy Spirit is the back wheel providing the power.) This book is a call to pastors and churches to return to preaching and teaching of Biblical doctrine. It is a challenge to every Christian to understand basic Biblical doctrine and grow in grace and knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ.Doctrine is Vital: Essential Food for Christian Living gives the Biblical reasons why doctrine is important, with supporting Scriptures in their proper context, in our everyday lives. This is NOT a dry theological study, but an easy to read book with illustrations, stories, and fresh insights. It may be what you are looking for in order to have a deeper relationship with God.My desire is for every child of God to become an Epic of Gods amazing grace! If I may use a quote from my first book, Becoming Gods Epic: You cannot become Gods Epic without knowing Gods Word!May the Lord bless and keep you as you walk down lifes path.

I want to share the important knowledge written in this book, with the entire world. I wrote this book, to introduce to every reader, the True Living Creator God, and His true peaceful way of life. Also to prepare humanity for the return of Jesus Christ, taking place in the near future.I am going to bring out things for you to read about, things that have never been heard of before.Summary of the Book : -Whether you are a white or black, or a black shaded skin person, and no matter where you live on this planet, you can trace your ancestry, all the way back for 6000 years, all the way back to Adam and Eve, because in this book I have written the two genealogies of both the white race, and also of the black race. You will also learn how the origin of the black race, originated, while Adam and Eve were still alive.You will learn how we, all humans are conceived with the original sin of Adam and Eve. This is the reason why we, all have to die, because we dont have eternal life, and the penalty of sin is DEATH, as written in Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, And the reader will learn why and how Jesus Christ was conceived without the Original Sin of Adam and Eve.The reader will also learn from recent discoveries, How the Living Creator God, preserved and saved the black race, during the Flood of Noah.This Book is based, and it is written about living a life, by the True way of life, of the Living Creator God Himself. It covers, some of the history of the past 6000 years. This book explains and brings to the reader, some hidden knowledge that only now it has been discovered. And how the Living Creator God have got a plan for all mankind, and it is based on an 8000 years plan, because He does not want any human to perish, as written in 2Peter 3:8 But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 2Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance. It opens a vivid picture to the reader, and helps the reader to be able to discern, of the present times we are living in, and also prepares the reader for the coming Tribulations ahead of us, in the next not too distant few years, before Jesus Christ returns.Ambassador George Spiteri

What if the very faith that shaped you is also the source of your deepest wounds?Becoming Me is a powerful and heartfelt invitation to name what was never allowed to be spoken. Rooted in both lived experience and clinical expertise, this book explores the invisible wounds carried by women shaped in systems where faith, identity, and survival are deeply intertwined.Blending memoir, client stories, and therapeutic insight, DuHadway exposes the generational beliefs, cultural expectations, and internalized messages that have gone unnamed for too long-revealing how religious teachings shape your worth, your body, your relationships, and the choices you never thought you were allowed to make.This is for the woman who did everything right and still felt not enough. For the one unraveling. For the therapist wanting to understand. For anyone questioning the cost of belief and carrying the grief of what was lost.

Collected Wisdom on Aging Faithfully.With honesty, humility, and humor, the writers tell of their own mistakes, failures, trials and shortcomings, and how God has brought them to a better place through them all. They share experiences that have been unjust or unfair, and how God the righteous Judge has worked to bring justice in his own time and in his own way. But they dont just share trials-they also share stories of victory and inspiration. Some offer us practical wisdom in dealing with the specific issues (financial, marital, physical) that aging brings. Each writer strives to inspire us tokeep fighting, keep loving, and keep laughing, no matter what old agethrows our way. - From the foreword by Sam Laing

God's Plan for the Present TimeThe first book, Mary Crushes the Serpent, is the author's account of his 30 years' experience as an exorcist. He writes: "I will first state what the demons said about the present state of the Church, and then I will relate the diabolical plans which they, according to their own admission, are keeping under cover... The object of this document is to show the maternal solicitude of the Blessed Virgin for the Church of her Divine Son, as also to publish the plan Mary seems to have adopted to come to the aid of the Church in her present plight."The second book, Begone Satan!, is a soul-stirring account of diabolical possession in Earling, Iowa in 1928, in which a woman cursed by her own father was possessed from her 14th year until her 40th year, the year of the exorcism.From the Conclusion to the first book: "'I cannot help but come to the conclusion that an untold number of events of our time, many of the inexplicable crimes, the general moral breakdown of human society, the contempt for and the denial of religious truths and laws are, to a great extent, to be attributed to demoniacal influences and machinations. It would be a rather hard task to convince the present world of this and to scare its people out of this sensuality. This world is returning to paganism with giant strides.' (Godfrey Raupert, Christ and the Spirits of Darkness)... It almost seems that the millennium mentioned in Apocalypse 20, 7, is at hand: 'Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, and shall go forth, and seduce the nations, which are over the four quarters of the earth.' That is the truth about the great dragon, the old serpent, which will seduce the entire world (Apoc. 12, 9), the murderer of men from the beginning, the liar, the father of lies (John 8, 44). One must be blind not to recognize him by his works."Holy Mother Church has fought unceasingly against the father of lies and deception by spreading the truth through her teaching office, by removing sin and increasing the life of grace through the Holy Priesthood and through the Blood of the Lamb of God upon her altars ascending to the gates of heaven. The Church guides her faithful through the Episcopacy. Would that the faithful would listen to them instead of to the false shepherds in wolves clothing! As a gift of her Divine Master the Church gives to her priests the power to expel devils and to confer blessings. The more violent the attacks of the netherworld, and the more articulate the demons become by their actions, the more diligently should these powers given by the Church be made use of. The exorcist narrates how at one time the Savior reprimanded him for becoming inactive in carrying out the tiresome process of exorcism: 'If you love Me, why do you not give more direct battle against my bitterest enemy?' Christ spoke to the Apostles with an authoritative voice: 'Drive out the demons.' (Mt. 10)."Christ gained the victory over the prince of this world, Satan. But man, to share in that victory, must cooperate with the living mystical Christ. But when the modern world is ignoring, nay even persecuting, Christ, need we be surprised that Satan is coming into his own again and this more boldly within very recent years? The facts contained in these books should make us more conscious that 'Satan goeth around like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour.' 'Watch and pray that you will not enter into temptation.' With Christ alone can we gain the victory."

Whether you love him or hate him, C.I. Scofield was a giant in American theology. His Scofield Reference Bible was (and is) a best-seller. It practically invented the modern study Bible, and he was a key part in popularizing the dispensational theology that set the course of Christian theology in America for much of the 20th Century. Originally printed in 1920, this public domain work has been completely typeset for modern readers, yet retaining its vintage look and feel. A new introduction has been written by Randy White, Founder & CEO of Dispensational Publishing House. You will not like all you read about Scofield. You will likely not agree with all that Scofield taught. And you certainly will not learn everything there is to learn about this complex man in this short biography. But you will be inspired by a man who put his hand to the plow, and never looked back.

Can you hear the message-full of strength and sweetness, rich in spiritual wisdom-proclaimed by the Gregorian chants of the Mass? Let this book be your guide!With a sensitivity born of many years of meditation on the texts and melodies of the Churchs liturgy, Father Murrett shows how the chant of the Mass Propers is aptly expressive of the prayer it accompanies. The chant as sung and listened to with his meditative insights thus becomes the true vehicle of prayer it is meant to be. The book is in no way intended as a manual of technical interpretation; its sole aim is to help singers and choirmasters better understand and appreciate this precious art-form of the liturgy, and thereby to render it more prayerfully.As its very name implies, this book studies the Gregorian melodies of the Mass propers-or rather, not studies but meditates them. For the book is a prayerful examination of the texts and plainsong tunes of the Sunday propers, plus a few outstanding feasts, done by a missionary stationed in Japan. It is not a technical study, but an effort to appreciate the treasures hidden both in the Latin text and the ancient chant.... For every choirmaster this is most helpful, and while it will not supersede Dom Johners study [The Chants of the Vatican Gradual], it will surely supplement it to advantage. Because of precious insights, little but discerning remarks that can only have come from long and loving contemplation of these texts and tunes, the book is so fascinating that it is hard to put down.... Choirmasters and singers will want to read it often-read it, and keep it at their side for further conning. -Francis A. Brunner, C.Ss.R., Caecilia, Winter 1965

The great Mystery of Faith is here seen as the central reality of the Christian day, wherein we give all honor and glory to the Father. In writing simple yet profound, the truth of the Eucharist is presented in a way that cannot quickly be forgotten. The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is not a textbook, yet teachers will use their textbooks with better clarity for having it at hand. Pastors will read these pages zealously and recommend them to seminarians. In the family the book will help to retain that unique bond with the Mass that is established on the wedding day, and cause it to grow ever stronger through increased devotion and richer insight. Monsignor Hellriegels work in the apostolate of the Churchs liturgy is well-known throughout the country. For over twenty-five years he has been a leader in the restoration of the primary and indispensable source of the true Christian spirit (Pius X, Tra le Sollecitudini). In this book is found the essence of his preaching on the all-important concern of our lives as Christians: the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. -from the publishers description of the original edition, 1944#$3Brief and simple, and yet scholarly and comprehensive. Every part of the Mass is touched upon, and its meaning in relation to the entire Mass is indicated.... The manner of presenting it is interesting, practical, and somewhat different. The use of diagrams here and there reflects the experienced teacher, and should be of value to other instructors. -David Baier, O.F.M., St. Bonaventure College, Franciscan Studies, December 1945When Virgil Michel founded Orate Fratres (now Worship) in 1926, Hellriegel was one of the original associate editors. In the course of the years, he contributed some 63 articles. Their distinctive style, plus that of the several books he authored, inevitably led to his being called the American counterpart of Pius Parsch, the famous pastoral liturgical popularizer of Austria. -Godfrey L. Diekmann, O.S.B., Worship, May 1981Considered an innovator before the Second Vatican Council, Monsignor Hellrigel was influential in promoting liturgical reforms that Pope Pius XII had urged in Mediator Dei, his 1947 encyclical on the liturgy-in particular the restoration of the Easter Vigil and the participation of the congregation in the chants of the Mass. Very soon after the Council, his views came to be considered passe in liturgical circles. Nevertheless, he achieved in his own parish church, Holy Cross, most of the objectives of the Councils Constitution on the Liturgy. -Adoremus Bulletin, January 1994
