This is a book about faith, and about the need to search for faith with integrity - an integrity which requires a ruthless honesty and seeks to leave no place for compartmentalizing the self.
In this search, Bishop Clarke reconnoitres the territory in which God of the Christian vision may 'in truth' be encountered and proclaimed today.
These essays portray the recovery of religious life within the Anglican tradition as a gift from God and also recognise that religious communities have entered a time of searching and revision.
Asking the Father tries to come to grips with some of the questions and difficulties which can arise for critically minded believers when they stop to ask what they are doing when they ask God for favours.
This book tells the story of how a group of Irish Dominican sisters answered an urgent appeal in 1968 to teach in a school in New Orleans. Since that time sisters have set out courageously, often at short notice, to face the emerging challenges of different cultures, institutions, and systems.
Cabra Dominicans and All That Jazz celebrates the gifts of the Cabra Sisters and of the people to whom they minister in Louisiana.
Celine writes this book from her own background as an Irish Catholic religious woman who happens to be involved in scripture studies. Each of these components contributed to her own story of prayer and to her discovery of the depths of the Our Father.

Go Down to the Potter's House is the story of the first 'Potter' retreat/ workshops developed by Donagh O'Shea some 30 years ago.
These workshops combine meditation and simple meditative work with clay. The aim is to help overcome the effects of centuries of introspection and individualism and to discover in ourselves and in the Gospel a straightforward simplicity.
Gospel Conversations is a collection of imaginary exchanges between various characters from the New Testament. The aim of the book is to enable the reader to engage more fully with the people who were influential in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. These include John the Baptist, Mary, Joseph, Mary’s parents, Peter, John and Mary Magdalene.
To cope fully with death, we need to open the mind and heart through meditation to a deeper way of living. Donagh O'Shea offers stories and reflections that invite readers to prepare for death one day at a time.
Like Father, Like Son sets out to indicate how, when we try to express the truth of who God is and how God acts, we need to think the unthinkable – that God is fully revealed in a human life. In Jesus of Nazareth God has come to walk with us. In him God has suffered among us and at our hands. It is always the same God, the one God, from the first page of the Bible to the last.
