"By focusing on the Jewish context of Jesus' teachings, all of His words not only begin to make sense; they come alive in a way that is exciting and powerful. I can testify to this from experience; the more I've studied Jesus' teachings in their Jewish environment, the more He fascinates me, and the more He challenges me to change the way I see who He was, what He was doing, and what it means for my life today. So, whether you're Catholic or Protestant, Jewish or Gentile, believer or nonbeliever, if you've ever wondered, Who was Jesus really? I invite you to come along with me on this journey. As we will see, it is precisely the Jewish roots of Jesus' words that will enable us to unlock the secrets of who He was and what He meant when He said th His disciples, "Take, eat, this is my body." - from the Introduction and rear outer cover.

"In this highly approachable volume, coauthors Cardinal Donald Wuerl and Mike Aquilina have combined sound research with pastoral sensitivity to take readers on a journey of discovery and inspiration through the Church's liturgical year." - Archbishop of Louisville Joseph E. Kurtz, president, United States Conference of Catholic Bishops. "This gracefully written book will serve not only as a splendid explanation of the Church's feasts and solemnities but also as an illuminating introduction to the faith itself. Mike Aquilina and Cardinal Wuerl have once again shown their prowess as champions of the new evangelization." - Robert Barron, author of Catholicism. "[The book] is a thorough and very readable guide through the Church's feast days, beginning with Sunday, the Lord's Day! The book invites us to be formed in a genuine Catholic identity and ethos through these beautiful and significant celebrations of our liturgical calendar." - Cardinal Daniel DiNardo, Archbishop of Galveston-Houston. "Catholics are a people of celebration. More than anything else - we celebrate! The Feasts is a fabulous book that will teach you the what, when, where, how, and why of the celebrations that are at the center of our incredible faith.Enjoy this book. It will help you to celebrate in new and profound ways." - Matthew Kelly, founder of Dynamic Catholic dot com and author. "This book delighted my heart! In a style that is simple and gracious, Cardinal Donald Wuerl and Mike Aquilina have brought the extraordinary from the ordinary in The Feasts.They remind us of the stunning divine realities behind the human calendars and feast days we often take for granted." - John Michael Talbot, author. "Every day is a holiday in the Catholic Church. In their latest collaboration, Cardinal Wuerl and Mike Aquilina examine the history and traditions behind both favorite and forgotten holidays, from Christmas to Easter, from the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity to The Feast of the Holy Angels. Catholic faith is festive, and the Catholic faithful count their days by celebrating the mysteries of Jesus's life. There is a message to be found in the passing of hours, weeks, and seasons. Through the feasts, ordinary Christians learn the life of Christ, share it, and come to imitate it. This book continues the work the authors began in their books The Mass and The Church, exploring the meaning and purpose of the most basic and beloved aspects of Catholic life. Each chapter uncovers the biblical origins and development of one of the great feasts or fasts - Advent, Epiphany, the Holy Angels, all the Marian feasts, and even this very day. The calendar can be a catechism for Catholics who know how to live it. "The feasts form us," write the authors. "They help to make us and remake us according to the pattern of the life of Jesus Christ. We number our days as we walk in His footsteps, from His birth to His baptism, from His passion to His resurrection, from His ascension to His sending of the Spirit to make us saints. We do this faithfully every year, and it defines us as who we are." - from the inner front jacket flap.

Includes Author Dedication; Introduction; Acknowledgments and About the Author. "From the host of Fox News Night, a deeply personal book about finding purpose and growth amid life's unpredictability. Whether it's her work today as a reporter and host for Fox News, her years in law school, or the time she spent competing in pageants like Miss America, Shannon Bream has spent her entire adult life navigating high-pressure environments where perfection is expected and competition is the name of the game. But in this laugh-out-loud book of stories and inspiration, Bream shares the moments away from the cameras and the halls of government, in which she learned that the values and faith of her blue-collar upbringing could keep her grounded in a world where everyone wants you to be something other than who you are. In Finding the Bright Side, Bream continues a conversation about authenticity, humility, and trusting in God that she's already begun with her followers on social media. She shares behind-the-scenes stories from Washington, DC, revelations from her time reporting on the Supreme Court, and lessons learned from the most challenging moments of her life - from the time she was fired from her first job and told, "You're the worst person I've ever seen on TV," to the time she heard "There is no cure." But through all of this, faith (and a little bit of stubbornness!) has helped Shannon to keep hope, find purpose in the pain, and find laughs along the way." - from the inner front jacket flap. "What a gift this book will be to your soul. The way life twists and turns with the unexpected and unpredictable can leave some of us feeling disillusioned and fighting against the way things turn out. This page-turning read will remind you that with God, there's always beauty to be discovered and will teach you how to look for it in your own story." - Lysa Terkeurst, bestselling author, President of Proverbs 31 Ministries. "Integrity. Faith. Diligence. Success. Bream's book -and life - elevate these cherished values. For anyone hoping to move forward without compromising convictions, this book is a must-read." - Max Lucado, Pastor and bestselling author. "It's hard to imagine a person who's simultaneously wholesome and sophisticated, yet somehow Shannon Bream is both. Her life makes for a great story, not to mention a lesson for the rest of us. It's not that she's had it easy. She just glides over the potholes with such grace that it looks that way. This is an awesome book." - Tucker Carlson.

"A Custom Edition of the bestselling Street Smarts" - from the jacket front. ". Perhaps you know Jim already. His investment track record is the stuff of legend. He got his start on Wall Street at a young age - from out of college (Yale and Oxford). After a stint at Arnholod and S. Bleichroeder, he left to co-found the Quantum Fund. Jim chose a tough time to launch his new endeavor. The year was 1970. Over the ensuing 10 years, the markets would flatline. Watergate would lead to the impeachment of an American president, for the first time in history. The Vietnam War would rage for years, stoking Cold War tensions and costing countless lives. Nixon would torpedo the U.S. dollar and the gold standard. Inflation would explode. Gas lines would curl around the block, as OPEC triggered one oil shock after another. The Iran hostage Crisis would captivate a nation, and doom Jimmy Carter's presidency. It would all lead to prolonged stagflation and double-digit interest rates. So how did Jim Rogers fare through this period of extended chaos? When the dust settled in 1980, Quantum was up 4,200% (versus just 47% for the S&P 500). His success was a signal to the world that a new financial genius had arrived. Jim didn't need political calm and soaring stocks to generate ridiculous returns. In fact, he showed that you could - by departing from the mainstream - get even richer in times of turmoil. That's what makes this book - How I Cracked the Alpha Code - so important right now. Jim and I both agree: Unless radical change comes to Washington and Wall Street. Unless the Fed stops printing dollars by the ton every time the market blips. Unless our leaders can stop valuing consumption and debt over production and savings. Unless ALL of those happen soon, this great nation is headed for a massive financial and political disaster. It's inevitable. And it will make the crisis of 2008 look like child's play. Frankly, this American reckoning looks inevitable. It will have global implications for years to come. And I can think of no better way to prepare than to immerse yourself in Jim's crisis world. I believe it can do the same for you - in time to save your famiily's wealth from any crisis to come, and even make you richer along the way. Good investing, Robert Williams, Founder, Wall Street Daily, Baltimore, Maryland, 2016 - excerpt from the Foreword. "Wall Street legend and bestselling author Jim Rogers offers investing insights and economic, political, and social analysis, drawing on lessons and observations from his lifetime in the markets. Jim Rogers, whose entertaining account of his travels around the world - studying the markets from Russia to Singapore from the ground up - have enthralled readers, investors, and Wall Street aficionados for two decades. In How I Cracked the Alpha Code, Rogers offers pithy commentary from a lifetime of adventure, from his early years growing up as a naive kid in Demopolis, Alabama, to his fledgling career on Wall Street, to his confounding of the wildly successful Quantum Fund. In How I Cracked the Alpha Code, he takes us through the highlights of his life in the financial markets. Rogers offers often surprising observations on how the world works - and what trends he sees in the future. He explains why Asia will be a dominant economic force in the 21st century. He discusses why America and the European Union are in decline, and what we need to do to right our economy and society. Tomorrow's economy will be driven by those who make things - food, energy, goods, and consumables." - excerpt from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
