Praise for Becoming Light “Prose and poetry, narrative and dream-like interludes vie with each other in a series of vignettes, charting the twists and turns of an amazing journey under the shadow of the Penal Laws. Nano emerges in stages as a bright and vivacious child, as a privileged young woman moving in royal circles in Paris, as one listening to the voices and influences which beckoned her to risk everything for the Reign of God, as Lady of the Lantern on the dark, impoverished streets of Cork. This novel successfully presents a portrait of Nano Nagle which is credible and inspiring. It is well-written and well-structured.” —Mary T. O’Brien PBVM, Ph.D. Department of Theology and Religious Studies, Mary Immaculate College/University of Limerick, Ireland “Barbara Ressler has taken a unique, creative approach to Nano’s life and spirituality in Becoming Light: A 21st Century Retelling of the Life of Nano Nagle. This original, quick-moving portrayal of Nano, her charm, simplicity, courage, and above all her steadfast love of, and trust in God, fills a void.” —Noela Fox, PBVM, Ph.D. Author of A Dream Unfolds, Wagga Wagga, Australia “Becoming Light: A 21st Century Retelling of the Life of Nano Nagle, by Barbara Ressler will be especially attractive to this century’s readers. The inventive interweaving of poetry and story in a fast-paced read leaves one wanting to know more about this daring woman called Nano, who challenged injustice with education and empathetic service.” —Maura McCarthy, Dubuque PBVM, Teacher and Missionary

Since early childhood, communing with light beings and then working as a registered nurse for more than four decades, author Kathi Pickett has learned much about how the universe operates with the innate wisdom in your body to heal, to transform, and to manifest your desires. In On Becoming You, Pickett uses experiences from her personal journey to teach you the processes to gain personal power and a deeper understanding of how it all fits together with the energy and mystical laws to heal, manifest, and transform your life. It discusses: the mechanics of the energy system and the tools to foster health and vibrancy; how to heal through processes and tools that awaken you to your true nature; and how to invoke the nature of the highly structured, impersonal universe to create synchronicities, magic, and miracles. On Becoming You invites you to find rhythm and enjoy the life you were meant to live. Through stories, it unravels mysteries in a clear language to provide new insights and knowledge that can be woven into your being. Pickett inspires you to embrace new beginnings, to release inevitable endings, and to ignite a transformation on becoming you.

Jesus Becoming Jesus, Volume 2: A Theological Interpretation of the Gospel of John: Prologue and the Book of Signs follows upon the first volume of this series entitled Jesus Becoming Jesus. The first volume was a theological interpretation of the Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke. Unlike many conventional biblical commentaries, Weinandy concentrates on the theological content contained within John’s Gospel. He does this in the light of the Church’s doctrinal and theological tradition, particularly in keeping with the Second Vatican Council’s Dogmatic Constitution, Dei Verbum. This is accomplished through a close reading of John’s Gospel, theologically interpreting each chapter of the Gospel sequentially. In so doing he also takes into account the Johannine corpus as a whole. He also relates John’s Gospel to relevant material found within the Synoptic Gospels, the Pauline Corpus and other New Testament writings. This original theological interpretation focuses primarily on the intertwining theological themes contained within John’s Gospel, specifically within the Prologue and the Book of Signs – light and darkness, the seven miracle-signs, the sacraments of baptism and the Eucharist, the seven “I Am” sayings, the contentious dialogues with the Jews, Jesus’ relationship to his Father as the Father’s incarnate Word and Son, etc. Within all of these interlocking themes one finds the importance of Jesus’ saving actions – the salvific works of his Father. The overarching theme of this book, as the title suggests, is that Jesus, being named Jesus, throughout his public ministry is enacting his name and so becoming who he is – YHWH-Saves. Weinandy offers a singular, vibrant, and luminous reading of John’s Gospel; one that reveals the Evangelist’s theological depth and doctrinal sophistication. In so doing, Weinandy makes manifest the particular beauty of the Gospel According to John.
