Hard Decisions

Forgoing and Withdrawing Artificial Nutrition and Hydration

By: Eileen Patricia Flynn

What are feeding tubes? Why are they used? Must they always be used? What does Catholic teaching have to say about tube feeding? How can relatives reach sound moral decisions about using, forgoing, or withdrawing tube feeding from incompetent loved ones? Why do courts, state legislatures, and well-informed citizens disagree about whether or not tube feeding is ordinarily required? In Hard Decisions, Eileen P. Flynn, a respected Roman Catholic moral theologian, presents through and balanced answers to today's questions about tube feeding.

Family Values Through Children's Literature, Grades K-3

By: Patricia Roberts

This resource provides teachers, librarians, parents, and others who work with children with an annotated bibliography of children's books that contain characters who display positive values as they relate to others. These stories will help children build associations related to their family values, help them understand the importance of the way values support a family, and recognize how values help overcome certain obstacles. A feature of this volume is the inclusion of sample activities and lessons related to the books in the bibliography. Educators and parents can use the activities as Dr. Roberts presents them, or they can use them as starting points for their own activities and lessons. The activities extend the literature by providing thought-provoking exercises and topics for discussion. They reinforce the sometimes subtle presentation of moral qualities by focussing the student's attention on the decision and actions that express them. Parents and educators, including home schooling parents and instructors in religious settings, will benefit from this helpful resource.

Kartemquin Films

Documentaries on the Frontlines of Democracy

By: Patricia Aufderheide

The evolution of Kartemquin Films--Peabody, Emmy and Sundance-awarded and Oscar-nominated makers of such hits as Hoop Dreams and Minding the Gap--is also the story of U.S. independent documentary film over the last seventy years, and of storytelling for a stronger democracy. Kartemquin filmmakers, emulating the ideals of pragmatic philosopher John Dewey, made their studio into a central Chicago-area media institution; they became national activists for more vibrant and truly public media; they boldly confronted the realities of gender, race and class as they carved out ways to make socially-engaged films in an entertainment business and innovated engagement and impact strategies. This inside look at Kartemquin's growth from the days of 16mm to the streaming era draws from interviews, scholarship and personal experience"--

Created for Wholeness

By: Patricia Warford

Only men matter, that is why the Bible only talks about men." This is an actual quote from a client. Her church had taught her this all her life. Her mother, father, and husband had confirmed it. She had no concept that God cares for or about her as a woman. This book is for her and for everyone who needs to see that God cares for women from conception and throughout life.

God’s Call Is Everywhere

A Global Analysis of Contemporary Religious Vocations for Women

By: Patricia Wittberg,Mary L. Gautier,Gemma Simmonds,Nathalie Becquart

Religious life is vitally necessary to the Catholic church today. But it will exist in new and varied forms which speak to the spiritual hungers of different societies, ethnic cultures, and generations. God’s Call Is Everywhere is the first comparative analysis of research in six countries investigating women who have entered vowed religious life in Catholicism in the twenty-first century. The data include survey responses from institute leaders, formation directors, and the women themselves, conducted in the United States, Canada, Australia, and France, along with focus groups and interviews in Ireland, the United Kingdom, and France. Through a careful summary of these studies and comparing differences, readers of this book will have a better understanding of the hopes and concerns of those discerning a vocation to religious life and learn how to move forward in the future. God’s Call Is Everywhere includes six major points of comparison: Demographic characteristics of the women entering religious life and their personal and familial backgrounds What attracted them to religious life and to their specific religious institute What they find most satisfying and most challenging about religious life Their hopes and concerns for the future Experiences and programs that were helpful in their vocational discernment Aspects of the larger society, of the Church, and of the religious institutes which make vocational discernment difficult for women today The analysis is followed by six reflective essays, two of which discuss the implications of the findings for future vocational discernment programs and four of which compare the findings to religious life in Asia, Africa, and Latin America.

I Serve You Notice

By: Patricia Tidmore

Patricia Tidmore writes this manual led by God because she understands people who have walked a world of sin and feels they have nowhere to go. There are people who feel so lost and question why they are here on earth. This manual is based on Patricia's life from drugs, poverty, suicidal thoughts, abuse, lesbianism, and sexual sins. No matter how deep or far you have gone, you can be delivered. She explains how tough it is to live in this lifetime and that the struggles you endure can be released from you into a blessed life. It isn't easy for change and it will not happen overnight. But with God's love, He can lead you to a life of joy with Him. It is hard to understand the ways of our Lord but He is waiting for you with open arms to show you and answer every question you have for Him. I challenge you to read this book and dare to see what God has in store for you. I was serving Satan and believed I was his queen. Now, I switched partners and learned that I am God's queen. This manual is not only for women, but also for men who have lost their way. You will learn to come out and be saved from all the confusion you have had in your life.

Undivided

A Muslim Daughter, Her Christian Mother, Their Path to Peace

By: Patricia Raybon,Alana Raybon

“Mom, I have something I need to tell you…” They didn’t talk. Not for ten years. Not about faith anyway. Instead, a mother and daughter tiptoed with pain around the deepest gulf in their lives – the daughter’s choice to leave the church, convert to Islam and become a practicing Muslim. Undivided is a real-time story of healing and understanding with alternating narratives from each as they struggle to learn how to love each other in a whole new way. Although this is certainly a book for mothers and daughters struggling with interfaith tensions , it is equally meaningful for mothers and daughters who feel divided by tensions in general. An important work for parents whose adult children have left the family’s belief system, it will help those same children as they wrestle to better understand their parents. Undivided offers an up close and personal look at the life of an Islamic convert—a young American woman—at a time when attitudes are mixed about Muslims (and Muslim women in particular), but interest in such women is high. For anyone troubled by the broader tensions between Islam and the West, this personal story distills this friction into the context of a family relationship—a journey all the more fascinating. Undivided is a tremendously important book for our time. Will Patricia be able to fully trust in the Christ who “holds all things together?” Will Alana find new hope or new understanding as the conversation gets deeper between them? And can they answer the question that both want desperately to experience, which is “Can we make our torn family whole again?”
