The Bible: As If For The First Time (Spirituality and the Christian life series #Vol. 1)
By H. A Nielsen. 1984
Territoires inconnus
By Patrice Godin. 2015
" Il y a la course à pied. Il y a aussi la vie. On apprend chaque jour à mieux…
courir. Est-on capable d'apprendre chaque jour à mieux vivre ? Dans ce récit d'ultramarathonien entre le passé, le présent et l'avenir s'ouvre une réflexion sur la vie, sur la course, bien sûr, mais également sur la solitude, sur les douleurs physiques comme morales, sur le dépassement de soi, sur la nécessité d'être inspiré à chaque instant de notre existence et aussi, si possible, de se faire inspirant pour ceux qui nous entourent. " -- 4e de couv.Sur la ligne de feu: Sur La Ligne De Feu
By Jean-François Lépine. 2014
Pendant quarante-deux ans à la télévision et à la radio, j'ai toujours eu à portée de main un de mes…
carnets de notes. À l'écran, ils faisaient partie de l'image. Quand Marc Laurendeau m'a invité à participer à sa magnifique série radiophonique Nos témoins sur la ligne de feu, consacrée aux correspondants de Radio-Canada à l'étranger, j'ai eu envie de redécouvrir et de raconter, à travers les anecdotes tirées de ces carnets, les grands moments de mes expéditions sur la planète, quitte à en être bouleversé. Durant ma vie de journaliste, j'ai couvert deux référendums qui ont déchiré les Québécois. J'ai vu des foules gagner leur liberté, contre l'apartheid en Afrique du Sud, contre l'empire soviétique en Europe. J'ai vu les enfants palestiniens contre les chars israéliens, les Arabes contre leurs dictateurs. J'ai vu les Chinois rejeter Mao pour partir à la conquête du monde. J'ai vu la guerre, au Liban, en Irak, en Iran, en Afghanistan. J'ai vu le monde changer. 2014.Stephen Harper: un portrait
By John Ibbitson, Serge Rivest, Marie-Josée Chrétien. 2015
L'un des premiers ministres les plus importants de notre histoire, Stephen Harper, a transformé le Canada pour en faire un…
pays plus conservateur. Il a réduit la taille du gouvernement, a rendu le système de justice plus sévère et les provinces plus autonomes. Mais qu'en est-il de l'homme? Dans cette nouvelle biographie complète, John Ibbitson explore la vie du Canadien le plus influent de notre époque: sa jeunesse en banlieue de Toronto; la crise existentielle qui l'a poussé à quitter l'université pendant trois ans; les forces qui ont façonné sa relation tumultueuse avec le chef du Parti réformiste Preston Manning; l'influence de sa femme, Laureen Harper; son dévouement envers ses enfants. Grâce à un accès inégalé à des sources, à des années de recherche et à une perspicacité qui a fait de lui l'une des voix les plus respectées du journalisme canadien, John Ibbitson présente un portrait intime et détaillé d'un homme qui demeure une énigme pour ses partisans aussi bien que pour ses ennemis. 2015.

By Rod Dreher. 2017
American Christianity is in decline. From the outside, churches are beset by challenges to religious liberty in a rapidly secularizing…
culture. From the inside, they are being hollowed out by the departure of young people and a watered-down pseudo-spirituality. Conservative Christian political influence has collapsed. Confused and frightened Christians wonder: What went wrong? What's next? Do we have a future in post-Christian America? Dreher argues that the way forward is actually the way back--all the way back to Saint Benedict of Nursia. This sixth-century monk, horrified by the decadence of Rome, retreated to the forest and created a new way of life for Christians under Barbarian rule. He and his fellow monks built resilient communities based on principles of order, hospitality, stability, and prayer. By creating spiritual centres of hope that were strongholds of light through the Dark Ages, they saved not just Christianity, but Western Civilization. "The Benedict option" is the guide for Christians under siege today. 2017.The best of Crocus Coulee

By Andrew Murray. 1984
Aids Christians in their examination of the scripture and offers valuable information to believers who want to overcome sin and…
live the Christian life. While Murray's book is specifically designed for young converts, the text is useful to all Christians. Murray's chapters cover a variety of different topics that Christians, particularly those new to the faith, will find remarkably helpful. Murray discusses how Christians should approach the tasks of missionary work, prayer, confession, and baptism. The text also provides practical guidance regarding money, self-denial, discretion, and the temptations of worldly evil.

The ballad of Danny Wolfe: life of a modern outlaw
By Joe Friesen. 2016
In 2008, Danny Wolfe, a Winnipeg Aboriginal man, was 31-years-old and awaiting trial on two counts of first-degree murder in…
at the Regina Correctional Centre. In spite of his young age, Danny had found himself in and out of correctional facilities since his teenage years, sometimes even finding his own way out. Now, fifteen years after his last break out of prison, Danny was orchestrating a bigger escape from a jail where the notion was inconceivable. This biography traces the early years of Daniel Wolfe's life, from his birth in Regina to his mother Susan Creeley, a First Nations woman; to his first brush with the law at the age of four and then his subsequent arrests; to the birth of the Indian Posse--the Aboriginal street gang in Canada that would eventually claim the title of the largest street gang in North America with over 12,000 members (from BC to Ontario, and even Texas, Oklahoma, and Arizona) and Danny at the helm; to Danny's death in 2010.
