At a time when writers such as Richard Dawkins question the very existence of God, let alone a God was any personal relationship with human beings, is prayer possible, and can it have any meaning for today? Grounded in a life-times experience and study of spirituality and prayer, Hedley Beare has produced a fresh account of what prayer is in the 21st century and how to give it a central place in one’s everyday life.

God-in-the-Moment provides a new synthesis of the thought of modern philosophers and scientist with the measured wisdom of Christian teachers of prayer through out history.

So You're Working for the Catholic Church
So You're Seeking to Renew Your Faith

When I finished reading Monsignor Tony Doherty's So You're Working for the Catholic Church I felt more than ever glad, proud and thankful that I am a Catholic. It boosted my faith and recharged my batteries. It's the best apologia (without being apologetic) I�ve ever read.
Richard Hughes, Fairfax Journalist

I have no hesitation in recommending this 'friendly and gentle introduction' as one of the best resources available to Australians today. The tone is personal and invitatory. The telling of the Catholic Church story through simple illustrations of the profound mysteries that are its foundation has a basic unity that links each of its twelve chapters. Brother Gerard Rummery

Opinion - Respect the key to youth violence

Without other standards of human flourishing to counteract those communicated on billboards and in advertising, the young members of some communities are deprived of all sources of self-esteem and respect. Unable to hope for those signs of success which the consumerist environment holds up for our emulation, young men in particular can be without resources to resist the message given them that they are failures, nonentities, nothing. - Thinking Faith
