Our new spring book releases couldn’t be more diverse: a scholarly work that fills the gap in any study of evangelization, and an inspirational albeit practical solution to harness the power of the Resurrection.
Sample excerpts and details are available:
Leon F. Strieder’s 492-page scholarly work is not a cursory presentation of evangelization—quite the opposite. While much has been written on evangelization and conversion, many liturgical studies lack a good sense of the history of evangelization, and even the historical studies lack a liturgical understanding of the methods of conversion.
Other studies may address early Christianity or the spread of Christianity to England or Germany, or the mission to the New World or the Far East or Africa, but they are without much insight as to what was operative in the methods of conversion and evangelization. Strieder addresses head-on the importance of language translations and how difficult it is to faithfully express textual meaning in a different language. He adds new underpinnings now needed to speak to our times. When it comes to the issues of language, culture, and conversion, this book bridges all gaps. #evangelization
This book is recommended for courses in Evangelization, The Early Church, Church History, and Church Development courses.

Entirely practical in nature, though inspired by timeless truths from philosophy and theology, psychology, and law, Resurrection Power! provides readers with useful thoughts about living every day with a supremely-positive attitude and strength. St. Paul identifies this as “the power of Christ’s resurrection”—given for victorious and joyful living in this life and in the next.
Author Robert M. Garrity underscores that Resurrection Power is not a force that relieves us of all pain or removes all suffering from our lives, but really can help us to rise above our daily problems, burdens, and difficulties. #resurrection
This book is recommended for Basic Theology, Soteriology, and Resurrection courses as well as church libraries, book clubs, retreat houses, and anyone seeking practical solutions for relieving the stresses of daily life.
