Faith and Struggle on Smokey Mountain
Smokey Mountain, the vast garbage dump in Manila has served for many years as an emblem of third world squalor. In many ways, it is a metaphor for a planet slowly choking on garbage and waste. But for Fr. Beltran, who served for three decades as a chaplain to the scavengers who survive off this reeking heap, it is also a metaphor of hope an emblem of the will to survive, the ability to create joy and find meaning even in the midst of abject poverty. Faith and Struggle on Smokey Mountain describes the spiritual resilience of the scavengers of Smokey Mountain, and how they taught Beltran to read the Gospel with new eyes. The lessons he learned bear a message for all who struggle for a better world.

Participating in Abundant Life
Though we know that God cares about people's lives both in this world and eternity, it can be hard to communicate the full picture of holistic salvation. Mark Teasdale invites us to both participate in and share Jesus' promise of abundant life, connecting biblical perspectives of salvation and discipleship to contemporary concepts of well-being and the common good.
