Psalms for Praying: An
Invitation to Wholeness
by Nan C. Merrill
Every
commentary on the Book of Psalms has had to face the issue that many of
these prayers commemorate and celebrate wrath and vengeance. What is needed
is not ingenious exegetical rationalization of ancient texts, but the kind
of transformation into a work of piety and art that is provided here.
Addressed are the needs of a world seeking to counter individual and
societal injustices by a global peace born of personal peace through prayer
and practice. In short, here is the Book of Psalms recast in the light of
the continuing revelation and evolution of the authentic religious spirit of
the scriptures.

About the Revision
The USCCB undertook the revision of Catholic Household Blessings
and Prayers for several reasons. The liturgical calendar was
outdated. Booksellers had been requesting a more substantial
binding, suitable for gift-giving. We wanted to include some of the
newer prayers by Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI as well as
some prayers published by the USCCB. In addition, we added new
prayers for stewardship, vocations, retirement, and the like. An
entirely new thematic section of Scripture excerpts was added as
well. The revision includes a Scripture index and a first line index
to make it easier to use. As such, the revised text is substantially
longer than the current edition. It will be bound in bonded leather
with gold stamping, and colored end papers, and includes a
presentation page. The Scripture excerpts used are taken from the
Lectionary for Mass or the Liturgy of the Hours. Hardcover, 528

The How-To Book of Catholic Devotions:
Everything You Need to Know But No One Ever Taught You
What do you say when someone asks, "You're a
Catholic. So tell me, what do Catholics do when they pray a
novena?"... Or when they "offer it up."... Or "wear
a medal."... Or "go to Confession."... Or any of the
dozens of other devotions that set Catholics apart from other
Christians.
If you've ever been tongue-tied trying to explain
Catholic practices...or if you have a few questions of your own ... or
maybe you are just learning about Catholicism, you've got to read The
How-To Book of Catholic Devotions.
The How-To Book of Catholic Devotions is the
only book that not only provides the who, what, where, when, and why of
the most time-honored traditions of the Church but also the how.
In this collection of Catholic devotions, authors Mike
Aquilina and Regis J. Flaherty outline everything you need to know but
nobody ever taught you about the ways Catholics pray with sign and
symbol.
From the Angelus to an Examination of Conscience to
First Fridays, Vigil Candles, and more, you'll learn exactly what words
to say, what gestures to make, what actions to take - in short, you'll
find step-by-step guidelines to all the devotional rites and rituals of
the Catholic Faith.
But that's not all. The How-To Book of Catholic
Devotions also furnishes a history of each devotion and a reflection
on its importance in the prayer life of Catholics as well as succinct
and salient quotes from saints and prominent members of the Church.
And there's still more! With its down-to-earth,
practical advice, The How-To Book of Catholic Devotions
incorporates cautions, drawn from Scripture and Tradition for potential
temptations and distractions as well as revealing the blessings and
graces associated with the devotions. If you want to learn what
devotions comprise a truly Catholic life, and share those practices with
others, you can't be without The How-To Book of Catholic Devotions.
