Reflections on the Readings for the Fifty Days of Easter by Laurin J. Wenig.

In his down-to-earth yet profound reflections Fr. Wenig brings us back to the first days of Christianity, when the disciples were struggling with the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus and all that it meant for their lives. He helps us unfold that same mystery in our lives today and shows how we can face the challenge and savor the joy of the paschal mystery.

LOR_whys.jpg Why Must I Suffer
$9.95
by Fr. Remler C.M. Whether it be due to our own over-indulgences in abusing the varied and sundry goods of this earth, our own seemingly countless transgressions against God’s commandments, or the providentially paternal designs of our Creator and first Benefactor, we will have our lot of suffering in this life. There is no escaping that. The question is how to benefit from it individually unto our everlasting glory and happiness in heaven. Suffering and death are part of our debt due to original sin. Therefore, they are necessary for our good. We must suffer and, in the end, die. But, why such a debt as this? How can its acceptance be for our good? Father Remler provides fifteen reasons why we ought to embrace our trials and tribulations, be they physical or spiritual, for the priceless opportunity that every pain provides us in our vocation to be made conformable to our Savior and King, Jesus Christ.

This is a practical book, for it has a foolproof game plan that, if followed well, will cut short dramatically our time of purgation in the next life. But, it is much more than that. This magnificent analysis of suffering, as to its cause, its value, and its ultimate effect (i.e., conformity to Christ, the Man of Sorrows) will give us more strength to bear not only our own cross, but to willingly share in the suffering Jesus endured for all men by accepting, as joyful victims, crosses vicariously borne for sinners within our own family, for our wayward friends, for the crimes of our nation, and for those dear to us who are languishing in Purgatory. Softcover 96 pages. Loretto Publications Spring 2003.
