In a world noisily clamouring for all our time and attention, families struggle in finding that still small voice calling them to draw closer to one another and to Him. Discovering God presents the essential lesson that discovering God is not just a personal endeavor, but a communal one - critical for the domestic church to flourish. I also appreciate that while packed full of practical help, it is a warm, comfortable book - one that can be enjoyed fireside curled up on the couch or a favorite chair.ÔÇØ ÔÇö online review\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cxml\u003e\u003cb:page type=\"OplPd\" oty=\"67\" oh=\"266\"\u003e\u003cb:pgttype priv=\"1004\"\u003e\u003c\/b:pgttype\u003e\n \u003c\/b:page\u003e\n\u003c\/xml\u003e\u003cxml\u003e\n \u003co:shapedefaults v:ext=\"edit\" spidmax=\"3075\" fill=\"f\" fillcolor=\"#fffffe [7]\" strokecolor=\"#212120 [0]\"\u003e\n  \u003cv:fill color=\"#fffffe [7]\" color2=\"#fffffe [7]\" on=\"f\"\u003e\n  \u003cv:stroke color=\"#212120 [0]\" color2=\"#fffffe [7]\"\u003e\n   \u003co:left v:ext=\"view\" color=\"#212120 [0]\" color2=\"#fffffe [7]\"\u003e\n   \u003co:top v:ext=\"view\" color=\"#212120 [0]\" color2=\"#fffffe [7]\"\u003e\n   \u003co:right v:ext=\"view\" color=\"#212120 [0]\" color2=\"#fffffe [7]\"\u003e\n   \u003co:bottom v:ext=\"view\" color=\"#212120 [0]\" color2=\"#fffffe [7]\"\u003e\n   \u003co:column v:ext=\"view\" color=\"#212120 [0]\" color2=\"#fffffe [7]\"\u003e\n  \u003c\/o:column\u003e\u003c\/o:bottom\u003e\u003c\/o:right\u003e\u003c\/o:top\u003e\u003c\/o:left\u003e\u003c\/v:stroke\u003e\n  \u003cv:shadow color=\"#dcd6d4 [4]\"\u003e\n  \u003cv:textbox inset=\"2.88pt,2.88pt,2.88pt,2.88pt\"\u003e\n  \u003co:colormenu v:ext=\"edit\" fillcolor=\"#2d487b [1]\" strokecolor=\"#212120 [0]\" shadowcolor=\"#dcd6d4 [4]\"\u003e\n \u003c\/o:colormenu\u003e\u003c\/v:textbox\u003e\u003c\/v:shadow\u003e\u003c\/v:fill\u003e\u003c\/o:shapedefaults\u003e\u003co:shapelayout v:ext=\"edit\"\u003e\n  \u003co:idmap v:ext=\"edit\" data=\"1\"\u003e\n \u003c\/o:idmap\u003e\u003c\/o:shapelayout\u003e\u003c\/xml\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fidelity Books and Pieties","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45159087898905,"sku":"DGT","price":38.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0706\/0989\/5705\/products\/1872222909.jpg?v=1683208079"},{"product_id":"educating-in-christ-a-pract","title":"Educating in Christ: A Practical Handbook for Developing the Catholic Faith from Childhood to Adolescence - For Parents, Teachers, Catechists and School Administrators","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEducating in Christ covers the essential practical and theoretical elements of religious education and catechetics for parents, catechists, teachers, and Catholic school administrators. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe first section responds to contemporary calls from the popes for a religious education based upon authentic Christian anthropology.
