Mass Divisions: A Spirituality for Persons Engaging PERSONS

by Roc O’Connor, SJ

In Mass Divisions Roc O’Connor, SJ explores the inner landscapes of persons in our country and church, marked as they are by precarious divisions, to offer a spirituality for these times: How is it that adult disciples engage Word and Sacrament and not bear fruit of oneness, charity, and reconciliation? This thoughtful work delves into the roots of the false self with compassion to make them available for a new relationship with Christ Incarnate, who has always been present in those places we avoid.

TESTIMONIALS

“Fr. Roc O’Connor, SJ offers readers and fellow disciples, a pilgrimage of the spirituality of being an authentic searcher. This volume is not a quick page-turner. It is not an informational manual. It is a graced invitation coming from a well-traveled soul into his experiences of Faith and prayer, which he shares from his well-prayed spirit. It is written as a heart-to heart invitation for those seeking “Authentic Intimacy.” – Larry Gillick, S.J., Director of the Deglman Center for Ignatian Spirituality, Creighton University

Mass Divisions asks how good Catholics can profess oneness in Christ yet still choose divisiveness over communion.  Where do these divisions come from?  How can we surmount them?  In his important new book, Roc O’Connor, SJ, a talented theologian and legendary musician, explores the human condition to uncover a new yet challenging place for encountering Christ–in the very places that we disdain and reject in ourselves: in our inadequacies and insufficiencies, which you might call the side effects of our mortality – the source of our divisiveness. This is an inspiring read for anyone looking for a way out of division, a way toward becoming real in relationships.” – James Martin, SJ, author of Learning to Pray and Work in Progress

“With pastoral wisdom and theological depth, Roc O’Connor, SJ, offers a compelling meditation on reconciliation in a divided world. Mass Divisions invites readers to rediscover the Eucharist as a school of encounter and communion.” – Dr. Sebastian Mahfood, OP, co-author with Dr. Ronda Chervin of Catholic Realism

The Heart of Fiat Crucified Love

 

TESTIMONIALS

“With Marian wisdom drawn from some of the most powerful theological sources of our tradition, Dr. Kloska opens up a contemplation of the great mystery with fresh feminine genius. The fruit of her many years of faithful and adventurous dedication to the Lord come through these pages to stir wonder and gratitude toward God for the gift of virginity in the Church.” – Dr. Anthony Lilles, Academic Dean, Professor of Spiritual Theology, St. Patrick’s Seminary, Menlo Park, CA

“So beautiful! Might even become Mary Kloska’s masterpiece!” – Ronda Chervin, Ph.D., Catholic professor, author and presenter

ABOUT THE AUTHOR 

Dr. Mary Kloska, Th.D., is from Elkhart, Indiana. She was raised in a huge Polish family (12 brothers and sisters) along with a lot of foster babies and other needy people in and out of the house. She presently has 70+ nieces and nephews.  She has lived a very unique life. Upon graduating from Notre Dame in 1999 she spent almost 20 years in the missions serving the poor (including orphanages) as well as praying as a consecrated hermit all over the world –Siberia, Nigeria, Tanzania, South Africa, Philippines, Mexico, the Holy Land and all over Europe as well. Although she spent a lot of time away in silence praying, ironically she loves children and is very fun and outgoing when it comes to serving young adults, as well as the little ones. She also spent her time in the missions giving retreats, doing simple catechesis, leading prayer groups, giving spiritual direction, helping in deliverance, changing diapers, feeding babies and cleaning floors. After spending intense time serving in a mission she would withdraw for periods of ‘retreat’ as a hermit (including three years as an official diocesan hermit with vows under a Bishop.) The last few years she has spent as a fulltime nanny to infant triplets, twins and several large families. She speaks many languages (poorly) and enjoys playing guitar, painting icons, baking, gardening, reading, writing and simply filling in where there is the greatest need in the Church. Her WCAT Radio program, “The Heart of Fiat Crucified Love,” may be found here.

My Seal on His Heart: Eucharistic Intimacy in the Song of Songs by Fr. Gregory Cleveland, OMV

My Seal on His Heart: Eucharistic Intimacy in the Song of Songs by Fr. Gregory Cleveland, OMV

My Seal on His Heart: Eucharistic Intimacy in the Song of Songs

by Fr. Gregory Cleveland, OMV

In My Seal on His Heart, Fr. Cleveland unveils the Song of Songs as the key that unlocks the deepest mystery of the Eucharist: God’s desire to unite Himself to His people in a covenant of love.

From ancient Israel’s Passover to Christ’s New Passover, the Scriptures reveal a divine love story unfolding through history. The rabbis saw the Song as the “Holy of Holies,” a poetic vision of God the Bridegroom drawing His beloved Israel to Himself. In the Eucharist, this mystery reaches its astonishing fulfillment. Jesus, the true Bridegroom, gives Himself completely—body and blood, soul and divinity—to espouse His Church in a new and everlasting covenant.

Fr. Cleveland guides readers into this nuptial heart of the faith, showing how the Eucharist is not only sacrifice and meal, but the wedding banquet of the Lamb. Here Christ feeds His bride with His very life, draws her into His self-giving love, and leads her through the desert of this world toward the joy of eternal communion.

Both biblical and mystical, theological and devotional, My Seal on His Heart invites believers to rediscover the Eucharist as the sacrament of divine love—where the Bridegroom still whispers, “Abide in my love,” and the Church learns again to rest upon His heart.

Paperback: $14.95 | Kindle: $9.99
