Jean Maalouf holds a doctorate in Philosophy from the University of Paris-Sorbonne. He is best known for his studies in spirituality, education, and various philosophical and social issues. He is a member of the American Teilhard Association.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jean Maalouf,\u00a0<\/strong>is the author of more than thirty books that include the fourteen books of The Healing Power Series with translations into Spanish and Portuguese. Also, he has written many articles on topics of religion, spirituality, mysticism (Eastern and Western), philosophy, psychology, and peace and social issues for journals and magazines such as\u00a0<em>Catholic Digest<\/em>,\u00a0<em>Celebration, National Herald<\/em>\u00a0(New Delhi),\u00a0<em>Peac<\/em><em>e Research Reviews<\/em>\u00a0(Canada),<em>\u00a0Praying, Revue des Sciences Philosophiques et Th\u00e9ologiques<\/em>(Paris),\u00a0<em>Spirit &amp; Life, Spiritual Life, Teilhard Perspective<\/em>. He is a member of several professional associations that include American Academy of Religion, American Teilhard Association, Association des Amis de P. Teilhard de Chardin (Paris), The Authors Guild, Contemplative Outreach, Centering Prayer, National Writers Union, Fellowship of Catholic Scholars, and The Society of Christian Philosophers.<\/p>\n<p>The messages in Dr. Maalouf\u2019s writings seem deeply personal as if they were written just for the person who is reading them, and yet, they are timeless and universal. His works were hailed by critics with terms such as these: \u201cJean Maalouf brings his experience as doctor of philosophy and humanities to bear in works of spirituality. His focus is one of gentle revolution in human development,\u201d \u201cMaalouf has written in the style of Meister Eckhart, John of the Cross, and St. Irenaeus,\u201d \u201cMaalouf\u2019s gift for writing about the most sublime truths in the most simple language allows him . . . to touch and transform the hearts of believers and non-believers alike.\u201d He is blessed with the art of provoking thoughts that inspire new choices, influence decisions, and get the attention of both the religious and secular worlds, as well as the academic and the non-academic ones. In a culture that often relegates God to loftiness, he knows how to provide compelling images of God in unexpected places\u2014in the most ordinary stuff of our daily lives. It is no wonder then, that he sees, because of the continuous Incarnation in everyday life, how one can transform his or her daily life through moments of grace in life.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>Publications in English<\/h4>\n<p>Bold Prayers from the Heart<\/p>\n<p>Christmas Shock: The Human Experience<\/p>\n<p>Experiencing Jesus with Mother
