2. Adeo Herzenskinder

Gabriele Stangl is a warm-hearted and proactive woman who has helped countless women and families in great need. As a counselor at the Waldfrieden Clinic in Berlin-Zehlendorf, she has supported pregnant women who lacked assistance or care, who were desperate and completely alone. Often, she had to turn these women away.

Deeply shocking are reports of abandoned or killed infants. However, few know the hardships that mothers and unborn children endure beforehand. Against this backdrop, Gabriele Stangl, along with a dedicated team of supporters, established the first baby hatch in a clinic worldwide in 2000. Finally, mothers can place their children in safe hands when they feel lost and helpless.

Read about the fates of the children that Gabriele Stangl was able to take in and support despite resistance from authorities and politics. How did the children learn about their origins, about their birth mothers, and how has this shaped their lives with their later families, their heart mothers? This book emotionally portrays active support for the weakest and most vulnerable in our society.

4. Adeo Mit 50 Euro um die Welt

Christopher Schacht is only 19 years old and has just graduated from high school when he puts a crazy idea into action: with just 50 euros in "holiday money," he travels around the world alone. Equipped only with kindness, flexibility, charm, and a willingness to work, without a plane, hotel, or credit card.

He was on the road for four years, visiting 45 countries and covering 100,000 kilometers on foot, hitchhiking, and on sailing boats. He earned his living as a gold panner, lock keeper, babysitter, and model, lived among indigenous people and drug dealers, and hitchhiked through the crisis areas of the Middle East.

In this book, the young globetrotter humorously and passionately shares his incredible experiences. He reveals what he learned about life, love, and God along the way, recounts touching and quirky encounters, and astonishes with insights that cannot be found in any travel guide.

A fascinating story that inspires the desire to take risks and live your dreams!

"My plan was to have no plan. To simply live without a calendar and time pressure. To stay wherever I like for as long as I want, and to move on when I feel like it." Christopher Schacht.

6. Adeo #FragEinenMönch

When the YouTube video #AskAMonk was released in December 2019, in which the Benedictine monk Nikodemus Schnabel answered previously collected questions about life as a monk, the response was enthusiastic: A monk and Catholic who openly, honestly, and thoughtfully addresses difficult and personal questions while taking a clear stance! And he does this without judging others or imposing his opinions on them. The general sentiment of the over 1 million viewers: "I would love to have a beer with him and talk about God and the world!" and: "If more people in the church were like him, I might consider returning!"

- What do you actually wear under the robe?
- Do you really believe everything that is written in the Bible?
- Do you sometimes miss your old life and the freedoms?
- Do you have Wi-Fi in the monastery?

In this book, Nikodemus addresses these and many other questions that could not be covered in the too-short 15 minutes of the video, with firm faith, a broad perspective, and plenty of humor.

8. Adeo Grüne Wunder erleben

Experiencing green miracles - that's what we can do when we let ourselves be inspired by the beauty and power of creation. Traditional rites of passage such as baptism, marriage or confirmation have lost their significance. At the same time, the longing for meaning and orientation is increasing. Anne-Maria Apelt accompanies people on journeys of life discovery in nature: "I bring ancient rituals into contact with today's longings and create a spiritual space in which people can find their deep inner purpose. "In the testimonials in this book, women and men tell how they found answers to important questions out in nature. How they encountered God and the divine anew and found inspiration for decisions and new beginnings in their lives. Their stories encourage their own departure.With a foreword by Andreas Ebert, co-author of "The Enneagram."

10. Adeo Johnny Cash - Meine Arme sind zu kurz, um mit Gott zu boxen

He was notorious for his excesses in drug use and was a devout Christian. Johnny Cash's childhood and youth were marked by hard work in the cotton fields of Arkansas. After three years as a soldier in Germany, he became the biggest rock 'n' roll star of the 1950s alongside Elvis Presley. By the end of the 1960s, he reached the peak of his career with legendary prison concerts.

But who was the deeply religious man behind the dark persona? Matthias Huff, a long-time fan and expert on the scene, has delved deeply into the musician's life and gained unexpected insights amid the highs and lows. The inner struggles between sin and the hope for redemption that nearly tore Johnny Cash apart did not shake his faith in God.

His biography, published on the 20th anniversary of the musician's death, provides inspiring insights into Johnny Cash's life, complementing and deepening the previously incomplete picture of the legendary global star.
