JESÚS GARCÍA, periodista y escritor


Aquí podrás encontrar todas mis novedades editoriales e informativas, así como consultar el archivo con mis escritos, reportajes, artículos y recursos audiovisuales preferidos.

Articulista, reportero, escritor, novelista, conferenciante... A la hora de referirse a mí han utilizado todas estas nobles tareas, y en cierta manera nadie ha mentido, pues todas ellas las desempeño con gusto. Yo, por mi parte, me defino como un sencillo Contador de historias, aunque esto también tiene un nombre en el sector informativo y editorial. Los expertos lo llaman Periodismo de largo recorrido, que es el arte de seguir una historia, estudiarla, documentarla y difundirla de tal manera que la gente la entienda, primando el contenido -la noticia y sus protagonistas- por encima de otros intereses conocidos.

Es lo que hice con mis dos primeros trabajos en formato libro, que al poco tiempo lograron la etiqueta comercial de Best Sellers, aunque para mí siempre serán, sencillamente, mis dos primeros libros. Se trata de Medjugorje y ¿Qué hace una chica como tú en un sitio como este?.

Para terminar esta bienvenida, decirte que entre todas las historias y noticias conocidas, hay una que es la que da a todo esto un sentido. Por ahora no voy a ponertelo todo tan sencillo. Entra, a ver que encuentras, y si quieres, lo compartes conmigo. Como he dicho antes, bienvenido.

Scott Hahn

Link to Scott Hahn

My work is about reading the Bible — reading it with you, and reading it “from the heart of the Church.”

We are called to be trusting children of God and of the Church, our mother. My studies have led me to realize that we are privileged to read the sacred page within an unfathomable community: the communion of saints, the voices of Catholic Tradition, the great cloud of witnesses from all of history. Our guide is the Holy Spirit, working through the Church's Magisterium.

Most importantly, we have the great gift to read the Bible in its natural and supernatural habitat: the liturgy. The Bible and the liturgy were made for one another. In the Old Testament and the New, the Scriptures presume, prescribe, and describe the ritual life of God’s people…of us…for us! The Bible gives us both the content and context of the liturgy — even as the liturgy provides our context for understanding the Scriptures. If we read the Bible as it was written, we'll read it from the heart of the Church. It is the heart of Jesus.

All we have to do is open the Word and be open to learning about it, about Him. My work has been focused on helping you to that end. You'll find here my books and CDs/DVDs and you can find information about upcoming events, but I've also added long lists of other resources which I've found helpful. Look, too, at the rich content on the separate site of the St. Paul Center for Biblical Theology, the apostolate I founded, which is a non-profit research and educational institute that promotes life-transforming Scripture study in the Catholic tradition.

Henry Nouwen Society


About The Henri Nouwen Society

The purpose of the Henri Nouwen Society is to foster the spirituality of solitude, community and compassion that was embodied in the life and teaching of Henri Nouwen.

The Society does this by:

Developing programs and resources that make the spiritual vision of Henri Nouwen widely available within the United States and Canada;

Creating opportunities for people from all walks of life to nurture and develop their spiritual life;

Creating a network of Society friends who support the work of the Society.

Current activities of the Henri Nouwen Society include book distribution to those in need, development of HenriNouwen.org, sponsoring retreats and institutes, curriculum and guides for reading groups, and an innovative program offering distance spiritual direction.

The Society’s growth and development is supported by a Board of Directors who is also responsible for raising the financial resources needed for the work of the Society.

Friends of the Henri Nouwen Society form a network of people across North America whose lives have been enriched by Henri Nouwen’s life and writings directly or through the work of the Society. Friends help to extend the work of the Society in a variety of ways.

Please consider becoming a Friend of the Henri Nouwen Society. We will send you regular information about the work of the Society and offer you various opportunities to get involved in ways that are appropriate for you.
