CHRISTMAS SHOCK
THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE OF GOD: In this book, which can be considered as one of the most original, daring, and significant contributions to contemporary spirituality in general and to Christian theology, philosophy, and anthropology in particular, Dr. Maalouf ‘s method is neither to build an abstract or utopian system nor to preach or sermonize. His approach is to question, explore, suggest, and invite the reader—erudite or not, Catholic or not, politically correct or not—to a new level of comprehension and way of seeing things. Whoever, however, and wherever we are, our everyday lives could become the place and time where the sacred and the secular meet. He proposes that our challenge, then, is how to be Christlike and not just “Christian.” Then the true miracle of Christmas can become the miracle of transformed messengers and a transfigured world in which “all things [come] into being through him” (John 1:3).

The Healing Power of Prayer
Why do we pray the way we pray? Our temperament and the way we perceive God radically affect our spiritual life and our prayer life. As Jean Maalouf affirms, when we invite God into our lives through prayer, things are bound to happen. Love heals. And God's love is the greatest healer.
I Can Tell God Anything
You already know how to kneel, bow your head, close your eyes, and pray. Jean Maalouf teaches you how to pray with your very life and existence.
Teilhard’s Proposition for Peace
Teilhard de Chardin, called “the greatest prophet of this age”, intended to write a book called “The Book of Peace,” though he failed to do so. Instead, he went on sowing the seeds of peace throughout his writings. This book distills and presents the essence of the case Teilhard made for the cause of peace. There is no doubt that Teilhard’s readers have noticed how difficult his thought can be, and how puzzling it appears at times. This volume navigates the complexity of those labyrinthine roads, inviting the reader to confidently “see” the basic unity which underlies all that is. When we recognize that we live in the Divine Milieu, where we witness the transforming presence of the divine in human consciousness, we will existentially realize the truth of the principle by which Teilhard wanted us to live.

With this series, he writes for every man and woman who has ever sought the support and strength to persevere through doubt, sorrow, fear or shame. The Healing Powers he writes of are powers we can discover through prayer, faith, love and friendship, Scripture reading, and self-discover.

Awakening to the Power of Peace—Love—Joy—Gratitude
Humankind is, at the present time, reaching a critical point in history. A disaster of apocalyptic proportions could erupt at any time. “I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought,” predicted Albert Einstein, “but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.” What we are to do in order to prevent such catastrophic events? We are to change the way we think, insists philosopher Maalouf. We are to see people and things in different ways. We are to see with God’s eyes. We are to witness the birth of a new consciousness. For philosopher Jean Maalouf, who holds two Ph.D.s and who has published more than forty books, one needs to go beyond the symptoms, he affirms, a...
Practicing the Presence of the Living God
This book, Practicing the Presence of the Living God, intends to be a guide for a spiritual journey. It can be used in a retreat center, at home, or at work when you are able to secure a few moments of quiet solitude and silence. It is structured around seven days - the number of days normally used for a spiritual retreat. However, the seven days can be reduced to a weekend if this is all the time you can afford. It can also be spread to a much longer time if your circumstances do not allow you to have this amount of hours at the same time. All that you need is your total self. God is totally present to you and you should be totally present to God also. It is based on Brother Lawrence of the...
The New Tower of Babel
Do we really believe in God? What difference does it make if God exists or does not exist? Are we better off with God or without God? Are we made in God's image or is it God who is made in our image? Is God our creator or are we the creators of God the way we create other gods? Does God tell us from on high what to do or do we go on building higher and higher towers and defy the God of heavens? Does God have rights? Do we have rights? Are these and those rights the same, different, or incompatible? Obviously, it is not easy to fi nd adequate answers to such fundamental and life or death questions. In this book, philosopher Jean Maalouf helps us to find our way around. With "[his] gift for writing about the most sublime truths in the most simple language," as his style was once described, he masterly walks us through the eras of Enlightenment, modernism, post-modernism, existentialism, and the deconstruction and cancel culture projections. With clarity, lucidity, and boldness, he explains how we are building the new tower of Babel, what the meaning of it is, and what the next step in our human journey could be.
