Life : My Story Through History
$19.95For the first time, Pope Francis tells the story of his life as he looks back on the momentous world events that have changed history–from his earliest years during the outbreak of World War II in 1939 to the turmoil of today.
An extraordinary personal and historical journey, Life is the story of a man and a world in dramatic change. Pope Francis recalls his life through memories and observations of the most significant occurrences of the past eight decades, from the Holocaust to the fall of the Berlin Wall, Videla’s coup in Argentina to the moon landing in 1969, and even the 1986 World Cup in which Maradona scored the unforgettable “hand of God” goal.
Here are the frank assessments and intimate insights of a pastor reflecting on the Nazi extermination of the Jews, the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the 2001 terrorist attack on America and the collapse of the Twin Towers, the great economic recession of 2008, the Covid-19 pandemic, the retirement of Pope Benedict XVI, and the subsequent conclave that elected him Pontiff. The “pope callejero” recounts these world-changing moments with the candor and compassion that distinguishes him, and offers important messages on major crises confronting us now, including social inequalities, climate change, international war, atomic weapons, racial discrimination, and the battles over social and cultural issues.

Vision Of Vatican 2
$59.952020 Catholic Press Association first place award, theology–theological and philosophical studies
This book is unique in the literature about Vatican II. From the manifold issues debated at the council and formulated in its sixteen documents, Ormond Rush proposes that the salient features of “the vision of Vatican II” can be captured in twenty-four principles. He concludes by proposing that these principles can function as criteria for assessing the reception of the conciliar vision over the last five decades and into the future. There is no other book that attempts such a comprehensive synthesis of the council’s vision for renewal and reform of the Catholic Church.

Prayer As A Weapon
$24.95In the eternal battle for souls, prayer is our greatest weapon.
In this book on spiritual warfare, acclaimed author and radio host Jesse Romero emphasizes the importance of prayer in facing our modern crises, especially for men who are the heads of their households.
He reminds us that the faculty of prayer is both a gift and a protective weapon from God. Far from a passive routine, it is an intrepid action in which we directly encounter the divine and drive away the diabolic.
Romero identifies the different types of prayer – liturgical, adoration, petition, intercession, thanksgiving, and praise – and demonstrates from Scripture and Tradition that prayer is also a weapon. This idea is unfamiliar to most Catholics, especially Catholic men.
Focusing on the necessity and relevance of prayer in the lives of modern Catholics, Romero highlights:
Why prayer requires humility
*The power of the St. Michael Prayer in protecting one from demonic forces
*Why specificity is important in prayer intentions
*Ways to make your prayers more efficacious
*The role of sacramentals in spiritual protection
*How only a return to prayer can win the culture warsDrawing from Scripture, the Catechism, the lives of the saints, and his own experiences in spiritual warfare and the pro-life movement, Romero provides riveting examples of the power of prayer to advance the Kingdom of Heaven even on this earth. He reminds Catholics of the duties bestowed upon us at our Confirmations: to become joyful soldiers for Christ and to pray without ceasing (1 Thess. 5:17).
The book also features moving testimonies of the power of the Rosary from medieval times to the present and includes reminders that, in the stirring words of St. John Chrysostom:
“The power of prayer has subdued the strength of fire, bridled the rage of lions, silenced anarchy, extinguished wars, appeased the elements, expelled demons, burst the chains of death, enlarged the gates of Heaven, relieved diseases, averted frauds, rescued cities from destruction, stayed the sun in its course, and arrested the progress of the thunderbolt. In sum, prayer has power to destroy whatever is at enmity with the good.”

Post Modern Predicament
$24.95Society no longer encourages wonder or spending time pondering the big questions of life. Indeed, the childlike gifts of curiosity and gratitude have been trampled over by technology and benumbed by complacency.
In these engaging pages, Bobby Angel reveals how and why your life has meaning. Drawing from major thinkers from ancient to modern times, personal stories, historical lessons, and popular movies, he assists the layperson in absorbing vital philosophical concepts in an easily digestible way.
As you learn to examine how your thinking defines you, you will awaken from the widespread postmodern slumber in which we collectively find ourselves and learn to navigate life boldly in our strange world. By sharing his unique perspective, Angel aims to revive the joy of contemplating the good, the true, and the beautiful with Christ as the prism.
You will discover practical antidotes for overcoming nihilism, social isolation, and relativism and will also come to grasp:*The main principles of the four “big movements” in philosophy
*The relationship between faith and reason, from medieval philosophy to the present
*The lasting effects of the Enlightenment
*The fatal flaws of postmodernist views on the dignity of the human person, contemporary art, and politicsWe can’t go backward to either a medieval or Enlightenment worldview, Angel argues, because the postmodern genie is out of the bottle. But take courage, for you have been created to live in these times. In our era of deconstruction, you can hold fast to the light amid the gathering darkness, draw upon the important lessons of the past, and reground yourself in order to flourish. The human blueprint is not destroyed. God is not dead. The truth has not been eradicated.

Truth About Hell
$17.95Religious leaders do not teach about Hell to scare people to come to Church, though the fear of Hell often leads souls to turn back to God. Hell is the result of mankind’s free will, not God’s malice. French novelist Leon Bloy said: “The only real sadness, the only real failure, the only great tragedy in life, is not to become a saint.” Since only saints are in Heaven, the greatest tragedy, then, is to go to Hell.
In these gripping pages, Dan Burke and Patrick O’Hearn present the most common reasons souls go to Hell (you will be shocked!) and how to change your life to ensure that you’re striving for Heaven. At the moment of death, you will experience a particular judgment by God and be sent to either Heaven, Purgatory, or Hell. Your mission in this life, therefore, is to pray, live, and help others to receive the mercy and salvation that God is offering so that you may attain eternity with Him in Paradise.
Your soul will be stirred as you discover:
*Twelve things Jesus said about Hell, and other Bible passages about this tormenting place
*How the evil one tempts souls to doubt the existence of Hell and the possibility of damnation
*The Church’s teachings on Hell, and the understanding of several Doctors of the Church about it
*Mystical experiences of the saints regarding Hell, and revelations in Marian apparitions
*Five ways to turn away from Satan and open your heart to God’s mercy
*Prayers, spiritual resources, and thought-provoking reflection questions for personal or group use
Jesus has prepared a place in His Father’s house for His true sons and daughters, but He forces no one to come. Instead, many have and will continue to choose Satan’s horror house, a place of never-ending torture, pain, remorse, and anguish from being separated from God for eternity – a place that can be our final destination if we do not repent and embrace the love and redemption offered by our Savior. Let these pages convict you in your commitment to follow Jesus in this life so that you can spend eternity with Him in the next.

This work features three of Cardinal Newman’s most esteemed classics: Meditations on Lent: Hope in God, Redeemer; Sermons on Lent; and Meditations on the Stations of the Cross. In these pages, he invites you to ponder the eternal value of suffering, God’s infinite love for each individual soul, the real reasons for fasting, and why you should repent now.

Mans Desire For God
$17.95This book brings a Thomistic prospective and analysis to many of the post-Vatican II problems in Catholic theology. The unique contribution of this work is that is combines many of these post-Vatican II works with a searching and new analysis of certain Thomistic problems which have pervaded Catholic theology, both past and present. The author brings fresh perspective to a famous Thomist debate of the mid 20th Century concerning why man is called to union with God. He uses his solution to this problem as a springboard to launch an analysis of such contemporary issues as: the personalistic philosophy of Pope John Paul II, the malaise in Moral Theology which is at the root of the pedophilia crisis in the Church in the United States, the loss of fatherhood and true masculinity in the West, the problem of death and the nature of the Holy Eucharist. Each issue is examined from the perspective of faith seeking understanding and seeks to contribute a new understanding of both the positive and negative contributions of the Catholic theologians of the last 50 years.

Up Against A Crooked Gospel
$30.00An essential text for students and scholars of womanist thought, ethics, biblical studies, and Black religion.
Drawing upon her grandmother’s personal struggles with physical “bendedness” and the narrative of the bent woman in Luke 13:10-17, Melanie Jones Quarles engages Black religious thought and cultural criticism to expose how the Black Church paradoxically nurtures Black women while also sustaining their oppression. Quarles mines the prophetic imaginations of influential womanist thinkers, crafting a liberating vision that resists serving as surrogate “saviors” in society and religion.
With insights into politics, Christology, and biblical interpretation, this book boldly calls Black women to unbend their bodies and reclaim their moral agency in the face of crooked systems that attempt to constrain their freedom.

Facing Race : The Gospel In An Ignatian Key
$30.00A noted Jesuit theologian offers a new lens for all Christians to see, acknowledge, and oppose racism.
The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius, a foundational tool in the formation of Jesuits, has become widely popular as the basis for spiritual direction and discernment among Christians of many sorts. In a sequence of meditations on the life, mission, and passion of Christ, the Exercises direct a person to engage in a process of self-examination and ongoing conversion to the Gospel. This involves a focus on one’s personal sin and desire for repentance. In this reading of the Exercises, Roger Haight takes as a reference point the social sin of racism. This approach not only offers a Christological lens for understanding the reality of racism in America, but outlines a socially-informed understanding of what conversion and discipleship mean in a racist situation.

Theology And Catholic Higher Education
$30.00“Our problem in Catholic higher education is bigger than the collapse of ecclesial credibility, bigger than the behavior of the bishops, bigger than the waning interest in theological studies, and bigger than politics.” Massimo Faggioli
Many Catholic universities in the United States have put their Catholic mission at risk by either ceding to secular neoliberal values or by doubling down on reactionary Catholic tribalism. Student enrollment declines as some schools market themselves no differently than secular colleges. Other, conversely, neo-traditionalist Catholic colleges ally themselves with regressive elements of the Church. Both trends, Faggioli says, reflect a dismantling of Vatican II’s vision for Catholic education.
Scrutinizing this crisis in detail, Massimo Faggioli reviews the snowballing changes in Catholic higher education, advocating for a renewed incarnational and sacramental Catholic educational philosophy that rejects accommodation to secular technocracy as well as Catholic tribalism in order to embody the inclusive, socially conscious values of the Catholic tradition as expressed in the theology of Vatican II.

Dorothy Day : Spiritual Writings – Selected With An Introduction By Robert
$24.00“It is no use to say that we are born two thousand years too late to give room to Christ. Nor will those who live at the end of the world have been born too late. Christ is always with us, always asking for room in our hearts.”
Dorothy Day (1897-1980), co-founder of the Catholic Worker movement, has recently been proposed for canonization. Through her houses of hospitality, the practice of the works of mercy, and her prophetic work for peace and justice, she offered a radical witness to the gospel in action. But it was as much in her everyday life as in her public activities that she expressed her spirituality and found her path to holiness. This anthology explores the key themes that underlay Day’s spirituality. These begin with the call to see Christ in our neighbors, and the teaching that what we do for the poor, we do directly for him. Day’s spirituality was deeply influenced by St. Therese of Lisieux and her “Little Way” that showed the path to holiness in the daily exercise of patience, charity, and forgiveness. Dorothy extended this principle to the social dimension–the significance of all the little protests we make or fail to make. She frequently cited the “practice of the presence of God” and the “duty of delight”–the challenge to put love where there is none. She herself summed up her mission as a response to “the greatest challenge of the day” “How to bring about a revolution of the heart, a revolution which has to start with each one of us?”

Celestial Web : Buddhism And Christianity – A Different Comparison
$55.00A leading scholar of religion applies a new method of interfaith understanding to Buddhist-Christian comparative theology providing rich new insights for students and scholars alike.
In his ground-breaking Gifford Lectures, published as Religious Pluralism & Interreligious Dialogue, Perry Schmidt-Leukel introduced his “fractal” theory of religions, challenging the tendency to distinguish religious traditions as discrete entities without acknowledging the wide variety within them, varieties essentially reproduced in different religious traditions.
After offering an introduction to this new methodology to comparative religion, Schmidt-Leukel, in The Celestial Web, applies this method to a comparison between Buddhism and Christianity. Some of the points of comparison include their respective approaches to the world, ultimate reality, the “dark side” of human existence, and salvation/liberation in terms of the figures mediating it.
Stereotypical approaches often treat these traditions as opposites, for instance, positing that Buddhism embraces an impersonal absolute, whereas Christianity affirms the primacy of one’s relationship with a personal God. Yet the fractal approach, which examines “intra-religious” varieties within the two traditions, reveals surprising points of congruence.

Green Saints For A Green Generation
$30.00Young scientists, sisters, and theologians of the “green generation” reflect on “saints” canonized and not who offer hope and inspire us towards ecological action.
“In the community of saints, all together are companions in memory and hope. Together, all together, they are becoming something strange and growing and great, instruments of change. Green Saints for a Green Generation taps beautifully into this dynamic for the sake of our suffering Earth, which cries out for no less.” From the Foreword by Elizabeth A. Johnson, CSJ
In Laudato Si’ Pope Francis established care for creation as one of the central themes of Catholic social teaching. Yet that ecological consciousness has yet to take root en masse among the Catholic faithful. In Green Saints for a Green Generation young Catholic women on “saints” canonized and not who connected their faith to concern for the earth.
The writers include a wide range of figures, from the traditional, such as Sts. Clare of Assisi, Ignatius of Loyola, and Marguerite Bourgeoys, to contemporary figures like Thomas Merton, author Toni Morrison, and the Martyrs of the Amazon. By connecting these key figures to environmental responsibility, the contributors encourage the not-yet informed to become active, inviting younger generations to join the ecological movement, to take taking on the responsibility from their elders, and to shoulder the ecological burden for themselves.

For My People 40th Anniversary Edition
$35.00“Unless we look honestly at our past, it is unlikely that we shall know what to do in the present for the shaping a creative Black future. “-James H. Cone
Originally published in 1984, James Cone’s For My People remains an important landmark in the development of Black Theology. While tracing the origins of the movement, its relation to the Black Church, its engagement with other liberation theologies from the Global South, and the emergence of Womanist theology, he also offered telling reflections on the path ahead.
Assessing this work, the great scholar C. Eric Lincoln observed: “For My People spares neither kith nor kin, but addresses itself to the whole range of factors in North American religion that make for the traditional black church/white church dichotomy, and the spiritual and social consequences that attend it. For My People is a strong commentary on both the role and the vitality of black theology, as well as on the pervasiveness of the problems that sustain the need for it.”
In a new foreword, Josiah Young, who finished his PhD with Cone at Union Theological Seminary and now teaches at Wesleyan Theological Seminary in Washington, DC, reflects on the significance of this work within the corpus of Cone’s writing, and assesses the ongoing relevance of this work for the life of the Black Church, the ongoing project of Black and Womanist Theology, and the liberating application of the Gospel to our world today.

Young Adult Playbook
$24.93The Young Adult Playbook goes where other life design books refuse to go: it asks deep questions about what constitutes a happy life. After decades of listening to their students, Anna Moreland and Thomas Smith name the underlying desires in young adults: while searching for a lucrative career, they long for meaningful work; their social media and gaming practices point to a deeper yearning for intimacy; and their leisure habits have been crushed under the productivity machine. This book helps them unlock their deepest desires. It offers practical strategies to improve habits. And it leads them to recover activities lost from childhood. The book is threaded with the real voices of young adults who have found their way out of this rough terrain. These offer much needed models of hope, providing a concrete map through unprecedented challenges. Journal exercises throughout the chapters tailor the strategies for each individual reader.
Plenty of books diagnose the ills of this digital age. Few offer a pathway out of these challenges. As caring and effective college professors, Moreland and Smith have spent decades rescuing students from this impoverished landscape. In this book they attempt to reach the students they can’t teach.

Vessels Of Love
$16.00Have you ever thought of yourself as a “vessel of love?” This image speaks to what I envision for the elderhood years. The vast life experiences of the past provided countless opportunities for our love to grow and mature. The persons we have known, what we have done or had done to us, the beliefs stretching our minds and hearts, what we gained and what we shed, the results of our choices and decisions, our deliberate participation in the evolving history of the world–all this and more we bring with us into the final decades.
During this lifetime, whether we’ve been aware or not, a Presence of immeasurable love has been flowing through those experiences, quietly filling the vessel of our inner being. Like vats of matured wine, our ripened goodness has readied itself to move outward. The Beguine mystic, Mechthild of Magdeburg, trusted that “the great flood of divine love never ceases. …It flows on and on effortlessly and sweetly and without failing until, finally, our tiny vessel becomes full and spills over.” Now is the efficacious time to tend “our tiny vessel” so this graced goodness strengthens in us and benefits the life of those we encounter

Principles Of Catholic Theology Book 3
$125.00What if anything can human beings know about God, either by way of philosophical reasoning or by divine revelation? How does the mystery of the Incarnation illuminate our understanding of the nature and mystery of God and the nature and destiny of the human person? The essays in this book explore topics pertaining to the nature of God, apophatic theology, divine simplicity and the holy Trinity, divine beauty, and the beauty of creation. The book also contains a series of speculative considerations of Christology: Why did God become human? How ought we understand the two natures of Christ and the topic of the communication of idioms (attribution of both divine and human properties to one person)? There is also a sustained treatment of Jesus’ human knowledge and voluntary freedom. Did Jesus understand his own lordship and his unity with the Father and the Holy Spirit, and if so, how? Did Christ’s human will always accord with the divine will, and what significance does this idea have for our understanding of the redemption affected by Christ for the whole human race? Through these explorations, principles drawn from Thomas Aquinas and from Thomistic tradition are taken into account as key resources for the adjudication of contemporary theological challenges.
Principles of Catholic Theology, Book 3 is a continuation of Fr. Thomas Joseph White’s collection of essays, extending over a range of fundamental topics in Catholic dogmatic theology.

Back In 7
$19.99This is the sixth book in a series of seven with a breakthrough exegesis of the Book of Revelation. This book covers 22 “signs of the times” of Jesus’ return and of the end of the age which we are supposed to recognise them when we see them. However, 10 have already happened in the last 50-100 years and 10 more are happening around us today. This leaves only two to come and one is the actual, visible return of Christ. We need to catch up.
The Book of Revelation reveals seven of these signs – trumpets them so to speak – which any 1st century Jewish teenager would have easily recognised as an extraordinary, world-wide repeat of the fall of Jericho. In that day c. 1400 BC when the seven trumpets sounded, “the walls came a-tumblin’ down” as we still sing today, opening the way for the children of Israel into the Promised Land; in our day, the seventh trumpet blast is about to destroy the defences of the whole world and the meek will inherit it, renewed.
Graeme seeks answers to questions few think to ask: where in the Old Testament did John find all of his images and metaphors, and what did they mean there? Why does God choose the signs that He does? Why seals, trumpets, and bowls? What else would a 1st century Jewish teenager have already known and readily recognised? This book offers the answers.
