Prayed Out
God in Dark Places

John Michael Hanvey

This book is primarily about redemption and the personal experience of one man who happens to be a priest. It enters the dark world of addiction and existential loneliness. It speaks of the ever available presence of God and his love, no matter where we find ourselves as human beings. Prayed Out offers the experience of one man who has discovered his God again in the dark places of humanity, including the experience of being gay and still regarded as precious, loved, and even liked by this fast, often elusive God.

A Spiritual Odyssey
Diary of an Ordinary Catholic

Brian O’Hare

A Spiritual Odyssey is the compelling story of a journey on two converging paths - a burgeoning spirituality, and a dramatic physical degeneration that took the author to the doors of death. It is essentially a witness to the miraculous grace of God and how it reaches into both soul and body. The author struggles with questions of a theological nature. The questions emerge from the practical, often confusing circumstances in which the author finds himself and he tries to understand his growing spirituality.
