God seeks us and summons us in many and varied ways. One of the most endearing contributions of the Second Vatican Council was its clear reminder that we are all called by God to holiness. But his call doesn't (usually) come as a loud voice in the skies; we don't see visions in the night or hear voices in the tabernacle. Instead, God calls us through the people, events, and turning points in our daily lives. In The Art of Self-Giving Love, Bill Huebsch helps us learn how to hear that call to holiness, and also how to respond to it. The response we are called to make is always the same: it is to die to ourselves, to practice self-giving love, to join ourselves with the paschal mystery of Christ and shed our very selves. This self-giving love is the pathway to holiness; Huebsch helps us to see it with clarity and embrace it as a lifestyle.

Into the Field Facilitator Manual: Covers Years 1, 2, 3

<p><div> <div>This wide-ranging book explores the diversity of esoteric and occult beliefs.</div> <div><br /> Neo-Paganism is one of the fastest-growing new religions in the western world where witchcraft or Wicca, Druidry, and Urban Shamanism are thriving. Alongside this there has been an upsurge in New Age ideas of an even wider variety, including astrology, Tarot, numerology, and many others. And then there are members of various schools of occult science, practicing High Magic.</div> <div><br /> Why this new interest in old beliefs? Why are millions of educated people today abandoning both the established religion of their parents and 21st century scientific rationalism and turning to magic and esoteric teachings? In their search for spirituality those who follow these paths claim to be applying ancient wisdom to the modern world.  <i>A Brief Guide to Secret Religions</i>, a companion book to <i>A Brief History of Secret Societies</i>, looks at the history and variety of these esoteric movements, where they came from and what they tell us about the world today.</div> </div></p>

The Lord's Day: Reflections on Dies Domini, the Apostolic Letter of Pope John Paul II

<p>Here Bill Huebsch offers a blueprint for how to bring the dreams and visions for a great parish to fruition. He shows parish leaders and ministers how to move in the direction of lifelong faith formation by offering adults in the parish powerful conversion experiences. He also offers a clear and consistant plan for step by step growth, with special emphasis on excellent liturgies, strong and effective catechist and teacher formation, and developing households of faith. In this definitive guide, he not only shows parished how to get started but also how to keep going until lifelong faith formation is a reality.</p>

Dreams and Visions: Pastoral Planning for Lifelong Faith Formation

<p>It s no surprise that most adult Catholics remain active in their faith because they were formed by their parents. This is the kind of faith formation that lasts a lifetime! Parents are the key players. And the fact is, no one else can do this particular work of faith formation. </p>
<p> Study after study highlights the importance of parental example. People experience less difficulty with drug and alcohol abuse, depression and suicide, and family tension when they regularly come to church; children and teens are more likely to do well in school, stay close to their families, and experience a greater sense of wellbeing when they regularly participate in Mass and parish activities with their families. </p>
<p> All of this leads to the important conclusion that those who work in parish ministry as volunteers or leaders must find a way to bring parents into the learning experience of their children. They must have great expectations of those parents, expectations the parents will meet if they partner with them and coach them to form their own children. </p>
<p> In this book then, we will guide catechists, teachers, pastors, principals, and parish catechetical leaders to take a secondary role (as coaches), to help parents play the primary role (as teachers) in the faith formation of their children. These leaders will then learn to expect parents to take the primary role in forming their own children. The feedback they get from parents as has been witnessed so often through this coaching method will be overwhelmingly positive.</p>
