Book excerpt: From Appalachia to California, from Mexico to the jungles of Vietnam to Central America and Europe, from frozen Minnesota to the Atlanta Olympics and steamy Puerto Rico, this is a remarkable story of a man who led many lives - bullfighter, Trappist monk, U.S. Army counterintelligence agent, CIA operative, FBI Agent and finally...Episcopal priest. The author tells of close encounters with bulls, Viet Cong, spies and thugs, bank robbers, famous officials and movie stars, and just-in-the-nick escapes from Mexico and Central America. He also tells a more personal story of broken trusts and abandonment... a story of a secret adoption and the author's relentless search to find the truth and a biological family. The author mustered all of his investigative skills and instincts to finally discover his biological roots. It was, however, ultimately his faith and hope that sustained him in the search for himself, and his one true father, God. A successful high-level government careerist, Perry wrote this memoir to inspire others to risk a life of service. In a time of national self-doubt and cynicism, this book offers an optimistic and inspired view of serving God and others, especially the nation.

Book excerpt: This book is the story of Father Bill, The Traveling Priest. How did his changes come about? How did Bill maintain his deep connection to the church itself when he took on a second career of consciousness teacher in the midst of the wild days of the nineteen-seventies and eighties when so many wonderful young men were lost to the church during those years of powerful change in the world? This book gives a picture of one man's journey. Father Bill is still very much a priest but his is really a different kind of priesthood than anything we have every seen. We asked him to write this book because it would have been sad to have his particular story lost. We each have our stories and it is these stories that are possibly the greatest gifts that we can pass on to others. They are the stuff of life and each is unique and irreplaceable. Fr. Bill has been called a "soul shaker" and a "world changer"-he is someone who can bring to others a new way of looking at life without losing the priceless treasures of tradition. Instead of separating himself from his church and his calling, Bill simply learned to sing his own song within the context of the church and what a song it has been.

Those who follow the Risen Lord into the unexpected places in life. Those who walk into the lives of others when everyone else is walking out. UNEXPECTED HOLINESS . . . UNEXPECTED PLACES follows the simple belief that the Lord Jesus stands eternally between the flames of hell and us. And He invites His believers to do the same for others, especially the poor, the sick, the outcasts, the lonely, the marginalized. But we must learn to pay attention each moment to the Mysterious Stranger who joins us unexpectedly on our journey. When we encounter Him, everything changes. Starting with us. UNEXPECTED HOLINESS . . . UNEXPECTED PLACES follows the six-mile journey in Luke 24 from Jerusalem to Emmaus, in the company of a disciple named Cleopas, his unnamed companion, and the mysterious Stranger who joins them along the way. What the Stranger does, what He says, how He acts, can provide a model of behavior for those who seek to help others. About the author: Fr.

Download or read book Unlikely Pilgrim written by Alfred Regnery and published by Beaufort Books. This book was released on 2019-03-26 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two middle-aged men, fast friends, make eleven foreign trips—pilgrimages you might call them —to parts of the world rich in the history of Christianity. The trips combine adventure, strenuous physical activity, exhilaration, discovery, and friendship. Three of the journeys were to Western Europe; six were to Eastern Europe and the Balkans and two to the Middle East. The trips were spontaneous and unplanned, often requiring improvisation along the way. Told in a lighthearted and often amusing style, An Unlikely Pilgrim provides a vivid and colorful picture of parts of the world often out of the range of American tourists, but deep in both ancient and current geopolitical, historical, and cultural wealth.

Book excerpt: In 1980s America, coming out as gay as a father and husband was a significant journey for anyone to make. Coming out as gay as a priest guaranteed immersion into controversy, contradiction, and challenge. This book tells of the Reverend Canon Ted Karpf's navigation of new social and romantic journeys, all within the context of his priestly vocation in the Episcopal Church. Covering from 1968 to 2018, Karpf recounts his vivid memories, life-changing dreams and resonant reflections on living a life of faith in a socially and politically tumultuous period. His narratives are crafted as poetic meditations on enduring values and meaning, which can remind any reader that we are neither abandoned nor alone, and that forgiveness is a fulfilling way of living in a world of contradictions.

She finally left her family to live a life of happiness beyond compare with her handsome husband, the powerful warrior Arthur. But one day, Emma found herself disoriented, as if an earthquake was shaking the ground beneath her feet. The people around her became unrecognizable and everyone turned against her for the crime she had committed--giving birth to twin girls, Alice and Rose. Soon, destiny gave her a second chance at happiness when her twin sons, Albert and Fred, were born. But Emma's life was still a roller coaster, and what if it broke down forever? She realized eventually that trouble is unavoidable while misery is optional. When fate gave Emma the chance to be her own commander, she held the reins of power tightly till the last moment of her life. Even though life's thunder and lightning struck Emma and her family over and over without mercy, she built her own dynasty and trained her sons to be the pillars of it. Meanwhile, Emma's granddaughter Mary--that little baby no one expected would live--succeeded against all odds and grew up to be her grandmother's undeclared treasure.

Book excerpt: When Father Callaghan, a young Catholic priest in a small Irish town, discovers his childhood friend has been brutally murdered by extremists, he begins to question how mankind has fallen so far. In search of answers, David takes a sabbatical from the priesthood to travel to Namibia where he volunteers to help on an anthropological experiment with the people believed to be the oldest humans on earth - the San people. Living in the middle of the Kalahari with an eclectic bunch of scientists he finds many of his concepts about life and faith challenged. The inevitable clash of beliefs ultimately compels the priest and the anthropologists to embark on a philosophical battle forcing David to question what it means to stay true to himself. Murder, romance, and poaching all intertwine on this thought-provoking journey deep into the roots of humankind. Will Father David Callaghan unearth the answer to what went wrong in the human saga? Will his faith be restored? Will an unlikely romance restrain him from returning to the priesthood? With uplifting humor, The Prodigal Priest brings the reader to the center of today's debate over how modern humans came to risk their own existence. Father David Callaghan, a young Catholic priest, is devastated by the brutal murder of his childhood friend when he embarks on an anthropological mission amidst the most ancient humans on earth - the San people of the Kalahari Desert - to find out why humankind went astray.

Book excerpt: As this book begins its journey through the publishing process, I am preparing to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of my ordination to the priesthood. With memories of my ordination day and the years that followed still clear in my mind, I find it hard to believe that a half century of priesthood is now in the record books. I continue my service as a priest helping out in parishes within the diocese of San Diego. Whatever the years ahead may bring, I remain committed to serving people of God "with a passion."
