Sobre IBD

A richly practical and theologically grounded guide for Christians who want faith to shape their whole life, this book shows how worship, virtue, and public responsibility form durable habits that renew families, parishes, workplaces, and civic life. Drawing on Scripture, the Fathers, liturgical tradition, and contemporary magisterial teaching, it offers concrete practices-confession, Sabbath, Eucharist, sacramentals, artistic formation, and vocational discernment-paired with clear pastoral strategies for pastors, small-group leaders, and everyday disciples. Each chapter translates deep sources into usable rhythms for modern life: how to pray with attention in a distracted age, how to make work sacramental, how communities can pursue justice without partisanship, and how mercy and accountability rebuild trust.Accessible, hopeful, and relentlessly practical, the book will appeal to clergy, catechists, campus and parish leaders, and laypeople seeking formation that is both spiritually rigorous and culturally credible. It promises transformation by rescripting habits rather than offering quick fixes-equipping readers to form resilient Christian communities that witness with integrity, serve with skill, and love with endurance. Ideal for parish study groups, seminary courses, and personal formation plans, this volume is a roadmap for making faith believable in a weary world.

  • The Holy War
    John Bunyan
    There is a dark side to light, you know.  Evil wears many disguises.  It always camouflages itself as other than it is; and, good men are deceived.  The very nature of deception is that the deceived do not know that they are deceived.  There is a dark side to light, you know.  In the midst of the darkness – the children of light!  The backdrop – spiritual warfare. This Christia...

  • Inevitable & Imminent
    Hugh Wesley Carrington
    We’ve been duped into removing prayer from the center of our churches and have placed it on the periphery or semi-periphery.  What we’re witnessing today in our churches, and in society at large, is that legacy of prayerlessness.  Church leadership may be hesitant and embarrassed to admit it, but there is a direct correlation between our spiritual weakness and our lack of corpo...
  • Broken Bodies
    Davis McGuirt / Heather Geisel
    If God is good, why do we get sick? When God created the world, He declared: "It is good." But then came the Fall, and with it sickness and death. In this heart-tugging monograph, Dr. Davis McGuirt draws from both his training in theology and the personal agony of watching his father die from cancer to provide a variety of biblical reasons for why we get sick. We are also remin...

    Owen Mitchell
    This book approaches Catholic reform as a multifaceted phenomenon that cannot be reduced to any single narrative or agenda. It was simultaneously a movement of spiritual deepening, as mystics like Teresa of Ávila and John of the Cross articulated sophisticated theologies of prayer and union with God; a program of institutional restructuring, as the Council of Trent reformed cle...

    Owen Mitchell
    The medieval sermon was perhaps the most important educational institution for the laity, reaching far more people than universities ever could and shaping the religious imagination of an entire civilization. Yet the pedagogical dimensions of medieval preaching have often been overshadowed by studies focusing on sermon content, social functions, or theological controversies. Th...

  • The Gospel of Small Things
    Owen Mitchell
    The Gospel is often read in grand moments - conversions, sermons, miracles - while daily life is left to habits of convenience. This book argues that true Christian formation happens in the small, repeated acts that shape hearts over years: brief prayers at the table, bedside vigils, a nightly examen, a habit of listening, the patient kindnesses that make neighborhoods and fami...
