The inspiring story of an American nun who died defending the poor and God’s creation.
“I strongly identify with the journey of Sister Dorothy Stang: from teaching kids in school, to recognizing Jesus in the poor, to embracing a faith that does justice-wherever that may lead. Sr. Dorothy gave her life for the gospel. Her witness on behalf of God’s creation and the poor could not offer a more timely challenge and inspiration.” -Sr. Helen Prejean, author, Dead Man Walking
. . . The hired gunmen who confronted Sister Dorothy asked her if she was carrying a weapon. She produced her Bible and began to read from the Beatitudes: “Blessed are the poor in spirit . . . Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for justice . . . Blessed are the peacemakers . . . .” And then they shot her.
The murder in 2005 of an American nun, Sister Dorothy Stang, focused the world’s attention on the plight of poor farmers in the Brazilian Amazon and their struggles against rapacious developers. Sister Dorothy had worked in Brazil for forty years. From a conventional nun in the pre-Vatican II era, she had developed a keen social conscience and, increasingly, a deep, mystical commitment to the integrity of Creation. These ideals combined in her advocacy for the rights of the poor and her defense of the imperiled rain forest. They also earned her the enmity of land-grabbing ranchers who repeatedly threatened her. “All I ask,” she wrote, “is God’s grace to help me keep on this journey, fighting for the people to have a more egalitarian life and that we learn to respect God’s creation.”

Simply Jesus : A New Vision Of Who He Was What He Did And Why He Matters
$15.99In Simply Jesus, bestselling author and leading Bible scholar N.T. Wright summarizes 200 years of modern Biblical scholarship and models how Christians can best retell the story of Jesus today. In a style similar to C.S. Lewis’s popular works, Wright breaks down the barriers that prevent Christians from fully engaging with the story of Jesus. For believers confronting the challenge of connecting with their faith today, and for readers of Timothy Keller’s The Reason for God, Wright’s Simply Jesus offers a provocative new picture of how to understand who Jesus was and how Christians should relate to him today.
