Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Your heart is hungry. These stories are the feast.You show up. You serve. You give what you can, even when it feels like almost nothing. And somewhere in the middle of the ordinary, exhausting, beautiful work of faith, you wonder: does any of it matter? Does God really see me in this?In You Give Them Something to Eat: Loaves and Fishes for the Christian Heart and Soul, Fr. Mike shares a lifetime of stories gathered from the most unexpected places: the quiet after Communion at mass in jail, a burned-out Brooklyn neighborhood where a nun saw heaven, parish life, high school hallways, mission trips through Latin America, interfaith pilgrimages, and countless moments where grace arrived without warning. With the warmth of Chicken Soup for the Soul and the spiritual depth of Love Does, Fr. Mike invites you to see your own life through the lens of the loaves and fishes miracle. The disciples served the crowd, yes. But they were fed too.These reflections will help you: - Recognize the sacred hiding in your everyday encounters- Rediscover the joy, humor, and grace woven through your own faith journey- Remember that when you give what little you have, God multiplies it beyond anything you imaginedThis is not a theology lecture. It is a fellow traveler on the scenic route through life, stopping to point out where God has been at work all along. Read a story. Then put the book down, call a friend, and share one of your own. Let your heart and soul join in the feast.
