Let God's Light Shine Forth
by Robert MoynihanThough he was a familiar Church leader for many years before becoming pope, there has been little awareness of the spiritual side of Benedict XVI. Now for the first time readers are given a brilliant overview of the Pope’s most inspirational teachings inLet God’s Light Shine Forth. Editor Robert Moynihan offers a brief introduction to the life and work of Pope Benedict XVI and then presents an absorbing collection of his most persuasive words. Within these pages, Pope Benedict XVI introduces a God who is good, beautiful, and true, the fountain of all life. The most important thing for each person, in Benedict’s view, is to discover and develop a loving relationship with God, because this is the way to the deepest and most lasting happiness that human beings can experience. Even in our darkest moments, he teaches, we can have hope that all things will ultimately work out in a wonderful way to show God’s glory and bring blessedness to individual men and women. Many of these selections deal specifically with questions such as: Who is God? How we can know him? What does he wants us to do and to be? Having spent his entire life thinking, studying, and praying about such questions, Benedict has become perhaps the leading contemporary theologian (the word literally means “knower of God”) in the Roman Catholic Church. From his earliest work as a teacher to his first words as leader of the Catholic Church, Pope Benedict’s vision of hope is powerfully summarized inLet God’s Light Shine Forth.

Let It Go
by T. D. JakesT.D. Jakes, New York Times bestselling author of Reposition Yourself, Making Great Decisions, and more than a dozen other titles, now presents this book on forgiveness, demonstrating once again why he is called "a spiritual genius," a "master of meeting mankind eye to eye," and one of America's best preachers. He understands that he and fellow Christians share spiritual truths "that transcend time and culture and reflect a universal understanding of human nature." The spiritual truth he explores in Let It Go concerns forgiveness and why it is important for those on the receiving end of wrongful behavior as well as those who commit acts of wrongdoing. "Forgiveness is a big idea and it works best when it is invested into people who have the courage to grasp the seven-foot-high idea of what's best for their future rather than the four-foot-high idea of recompense for what has happened in their past," Jakes writes in Let It Go. This book explores forgiveness as an idea and at the same time offers specific and clear actions for readers who seek to apply the idea in their daily lives. Offenses are a part of life, he says. But conflicts can be resolved and relationships do have a future, if we learn how to forgive. No matter how great or small the injustice, Jakes shows how the matter can be put behind you for the sake of a better tomorrow if you can Let It Go.

Let It Shine!: The Emergence of African American Catholic Worship
by Mary E. McGann R.S.C.J.Let It Shine! probes the distinctive contribution of black Catholics to the life of the American church, and to the unfolding of lived Christianity in the United States. This important book explores the powerful spiritual renaissance that has marked African American life and selfunderstanding over the last several decades by examining one critical dimension: the forging of new expressions of Catholic worship rooted in the larger Catholic tradition, yet shaped in unique ways by African American religious culture.Starting with the 1960s, the book traces the dynamic interplay of social change, cultural awakening, and charismatic leadership that have sparked the emergence of distinctive styles of black Catholic worship. In their historical overview, McGann and Eva Marie Lumas chronicle the liturgical and pastoral issues of a black Catholic liturgical movement that has transformed the larger American church. McGann then examines the foundational vision of Rev. Clarence R. J. Rivers, who promoted forms of black worship, music, preaching, and prayer that have enabled African American Catholics to reclaim the fullness of their religious identity.Finally, Harbor constructs a black Catholic aesthetic based on the theological, ethical, and liturgical insights of four African American scholars, expressed through twenty-three performative values. This liturgical aesthetic illuminates the distinctive gift of black Catholics to the multicultural tapestry of lived faith in the American church and can also serve as a pastoral model for other cultural communities.Blending history, theology, and liturgy, Let It Shine! is a valuable resource for scholars, teachers, and students and a practical pastoral guide to bringing African American spirituality more firmly into the sacramental life of American parishes.

Let My Nation Ascend
by Yosef DeutschLet My Nation Ascend continues whereLet My Nation Wander left off, bringing to life the Jewish people's ascent toward their ultimate destination of the Promised Land. With the tragedies of the spies and Korach long behind them, the Jewish people's final year in the wilderness is filled with new challenges as well as tests of their faith in Hashem. They are faced with trials and tribulations from nature, with the disappearance of Miriam's Well and their subsequent thirst; from animals, in the form of serpents; and from man, beginning with the warring giants, Sichon, king of the Emorites, and Og, king of Bashan. They must overcome their old nemesis, Bilam, and fight against Midian. And they will have to part from Moshe and accept Yehoshua as their new leader.
Let My Nation Begin
by Yosef DeutschA three-year-old boy, hiding from those who wish to kill him, looks up at the sky and discovers the Master of the Universe. His belief stands alone against the entire pagan world. As progenitor of the Jewish people, he will save all of humanity. <p><p>Avraham Avinu’s life is an amazing story of trial and tribulation, of triumph against overwhelming odds. It combines the epitome of loving kindness with perfect faith and unwavering obedience to Hashem. Avraham’s strength in overcoming every ordeal was indelibly transmitted into the very being of his descendants ― the Jewish nation. <p><p>Let My Nation Begin fills in the details, based on Talmudic and Midrashic sources and works of Rishonim and Acharonim throughout the millennia. His tenth volume in the Let My Nation series, Rabbi Yosef Deutsch enthralls with his trademark drama, humor, and attention to facts. Nimrod’s fiery furnace, the war against the Alliance of the Four Kings, the Akeidah ― read about Avraham’s ten tests as if you were there, and learn the secret of our nation’s great beginning.
Let My Nation Go
by Yosef DeutschWhen it comes to the most dramatic event in history to epitomize a nation's transition from slavery to freedom, no story captures the world s imagination more than the Jewish nation's exodus from Egypt. And to tell that amazing story, there is no book that captures it all the ancient setting, the vast scope, the grand themes, the memorable personalities along with the details of those events better than Let My Nation Go. The author draws upon a wealth of traditional sources along with a rich array of classic commentaries, and then weaves it all together to create a seamless narrative that reads like an exciting novel. This is history on a grand scale; the stirring story of the birth of the Jewish nation: from the roots of their arrival in Egypt, through centuries of suffering, through the ten plagues, leading up to that epic moment known as the Exodus. Written with compelling insight, historical precision, and narrative flair, Let My Nation Go brings the birth of the Jewish nation vividly to life. It will forever change the way you view this momentous chapter in the unfolding history of the world.

Let My Nation Serve Me
by Artscroll MesorahYosef Deutsch's previous bestseller Let My Nation Live earned a following of avid readers eager to experience more great moments in Jewish history - moments that impact on us forever. With the expertise of a scholar and the pen of a novelist, he recreates the scenes and emotional climate of the era, shedding light on stories we've heard before, but never understood as a reality. Let My Nation Serve Me recounts the most important episode in Jewish history: the drama and exhilaration of Mattan Torah come alive, drawing us to Mount Sinai where we can visualize Moshe, Aharon, Miriam, and other Biblical figures as though they stood before us. Basing his narrative on the Talmud, midrashim and commentaries, the author weaves a vivid tapestry that portrays the Jews' desert life and the singular event of Revelation as never before. We view the Sea of Reeds in its eerie calm, the day after the drowning of the Egyptian army; experience the bloodthirsty attack of Amalek; see the Heavenly tumult and hear the Ten Commandments; despair as the Golden Calf rises to ensnare the Jewish people in sin; and finally, relive unbounded joy and thankfulness when Divine forgiveness gives us back the Tablets of the Law, our lives and our future as His People. This is more than a story. Let My Nation Serve Me is a trip back in time, when the Jewish nation was forged in the desert -- and we are there.
Let My Nation Wander
by Yosef DeutschThe Story of the Jewish People's Journey Through the Wilderness, From the First Encampment to the Korach Rebellion.

You witness the miracles, you hear the clamor of dissent. This masterful volume weaves together Talmudic and Midrashic sources to create a holistic, true-to-life view of the Jewish people's journey through the Midbar. Talented scholar Yosef Deutsch creates a work that reads like ficiton but is, in fact, completely factual and educational. Experience Jewish history like never before!
Let My People Go
by Patricia C. Mckissack Fredrick L. Mckissack Jr. James E. Ransome"Come join me as I take you back to Charleston, South Carolina, to my father's forge in the early 1800's. Sit with me on the woodpile as he tells a tale of faith, hope, or love." In this extraordinary collection, Charlotte Jefferies and her father Price, a former slave, introduce us to twelve best loved Bible tales, from Genesis to Daniel, and reveal their significance in the lives of African Americans--and indeed of all oppressed peoples. When Charlotte wants to understand the cruel injustices of her time, she turns to her father. Does the powerful slaveholder, Mr. Sam Riley, who seems to own all that surrounds them, also own the sun and moon? she wonders. Price's answer is to tell the story of Creation. How can God allow an evil like slavery to exist? she asks. Price responds by telling the story of the Hebrews' Exodus -- and shows Charlotte that someday their people, too, will be free. With exquisite clarity, Patricia and Fredrick McKissack and James Ransome -- a Newbery Honor winner and all Coretta Scott King Award winners -- brilliantly illuminate the parallels between the stories of the Jews and African-American history. Let My People Go is a triumphant celebration of both the human spirit and the enduring power of story as a source of strength. Our hope is that this book will be like a lighthouse that can guide young readers through good times and bad....The ideas that these ancient stories hold are not for one people, at one time, in one place. They are for all of us, for all times, everywhere. --from the Authors' Note to Let My People Go
