  • Turned Around : Replying To Common Objections Against The Traditional Latin

    $29.95

    Turned Around: Replying to Common Objections Against the Traditional Latin Mass is a practical and clear book that examines the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM) through a fresh lens. In each chapter, Dr. Peter Kwasniewski addresses common objections to the TLM, transforming these challenges into gateways for a deeper understanding and appreciation of its timeless beauty. From the reasons we worship facing East, to the profound significance of praying in Latin, and the ritual separation of priest and people, Turned Around sheds light on why these liturgical elements resonate so deeply with the faithful.

    Various other topics will be explored within these pages, including:

    *Why the Traditional Mass Is Kingly and Courtly
    *Why We Follow Inherited Rituals and Strict Rubrics
    *Why We Repeat Ourselves in Traditional Worship
    *Why We Use a One-Year Lectionary of Readings
    *Why it Is Better Not to Understand Everything Immediately
    *Why We Kneel for Communion and Receive on the Tongue

    Turned Around provides the answers and intrigue to explore the paradoxical and countercultural elements of the TLM that have drawn the young and older faithful closer to the divine for centuries. This book is not just a defense of tradition; it is a journey to the heart of Catholic worship, promising to deepen the reader’s spiritual life and understanding of the Mass. Whether you’re a skeptic or a devout follower, Turned Around offers a compelling case for the enduring relevance and beauty of the Traditional Latin Mass.

  • Desist Detrans And Detox

    $21.95

    In this actionable analysis of one of the most damaging movements of the modern age, renowned author Maria Keffler makes a compelling case that what lies at the core of the transgender phenomenon is a crisis of identity, and that only a loving but firm reality check can staunch the hysteria.

    Keffler makes unassailable arguments: Maleness and femaleness are immutable biological facts. Masculinity and femininity are personality constructs, conditioned by societal norms.

    But “gender,” the term favored by activists, has no solid definition. The language introduced by gender ideology is entirely subjective, which allows emotions to redefine reality. The very premise of the ideology is flawed and requires mental gymnastics of its adherents.

    Keffler outlines the disturbing parallels between cults and gender ideology: recruitment tactics that prey upon insecurities, indoctrination in nonsensical beliefs that must never be questioned, requirements to shun nonbelievers, and in-group newspeak which cultivates a sense of belonging.

    She exposes the cult of gender ideology with journalistic detail, digging into aspects the mainstream media chooses to ignore. She investigates:

    *The origins of modern gender ideology in the 1960s

    *How the obsession to “affirm” gender identity leads to medical negligence in overlooking mental health issues

    *The role of bullying and peer pressure in the gender cult

    *The rapidly growing community of detransitioners and their insightful firsthand testimonies

    Keffler also provides a manual for parenting children during the time they are most vulnerable to predatory gender activism. She instructs parents in navigating this brave new world, including discerning fact from fiction, setting boundaries regarding names and pronouns, how to find a trustworthy therapist, and how to determine what vulnerabilities led the child to the gender cult in the first place.

    The book includes an abundance of resources for parents whose children are currently in the throes of or recovering from gender dysphoria. Central to her approach is unconditional love and forgiveness, with a focus on moving forward together.

    Packed with statistical data, reasoned arguments, and practical advice, Desist, Detrans, and Detox equips readers to prevent, work through, and heal from the “medical scandal of the 21st century.”

  • Midwinter God : Encountering The Divine In Seasons Of Darkness

    $18.95

    “I believe we all carry grief that has gone unnamed and unmourned,” writes best-selling author Christine Valters Paintner. “Nothing in our culture prepares us to deal with darkness and grief. We are told to cheer up and move on, to shop or drink our way to forgetting the pain we carry. Yet I believe that being faithful to our own dark moments is the path of true prayer.” In her book, A Midwinter God: Encountering the Divine in Seasons of Darkness, Paintner offers an invitation to enter the wisdom of holy darkness and to find there a path toward hope and spiritual maturity.

    Paintner has experienced multiple journeys through grief that have brought her face-to-face with what she calls the “midwinter God”–the seeming absence of the God of life in dark and fallow seasons of loss. She has learned to confront her own terror in that darkness and to approach it with curiosity to see what it has to teach her. This endeavor has illuminated a path for her to embrace a life of profound depth, one that honors both the trials of suffering and the richness of joy.

    With her characteristic integrative and creative practices, Paintner, abbess of the online Abbey of the Arts, guides her readers to view darkness as a place where seeds of holiness begin to germinate. Each chapter of this book unfolds as an invitation to grow in understanding of holy darkness and also meditate, reflect, and create with these elements:

    *Paintner’s reflections on various themes of loss and acceptance
    *Insights on a scripture passage written by Paintner’s husband, John
    *A guided meditation to bring the teachings into your heart
    *Prompts for an expressive arts practice to process these insights through creativity
    *Reflection questions to integrate what you have experienced
    *Writing samples from people who have worked through this material in an online retreat

    Autumn and winter are vital to the health of nature and to our own bodies. It is a time of releasing and letting go–a season that invites us to slow down, to welcome the growing darkness, and to grow stiller and quieter. Darkness can be an uncomfortable and uneasy place, but it is also a place of profound incubation and gestation, a source of tremendous and hard-wrought wisdom. With Paintner as our guide, we can encounter this midwinter God with vulnerable courage that leads us to hope-filled wholeness.

  • Already There

    $17.95

    Are you ready to come home?

    A place where no one is ever hungry, afraid, or alone. A golden land of beauty, laughter, and joy.

    Could there really be such a place?

    This is the question our protagonist, a little lamb, asks when a mysterious kindly Shepherd appears, promising eternal happiness in a world to come.

    Yes, our home is indeed a paradise, and the Father has prepared a place for each of us.

    As the lamb grapples with this joyous revelation, he learns to ignore the scoffing of worldly leaders, who boast of their own plans and claim that Heaven is a myth. The lamb believes the Shepherd and is determined to find the way to this wonderful place.

    The way is simple. The Shepherd tells him: “I am the Way.” And the lamb eagerly follows Him. But while simple, the way is not easy. The lamb faces many obstacles on the path to happiness, including his own weakness and temptations. As his memory of the Good Shepherd fades, will he overcome the allure of the world to follow the true path once again?

    With whimsical storytelling and colorful imagery, this picture book gently introduces children to the challenge all Christians face during their lives. Parents and children alike will ask whether they have the courage to follow Jesus when the path before them becomes steep and rocky.

    Inspired by the parable of the Good Shepherd, who goes into the wilderness to rescue the sheep that strays, this tale of faith and forgiveness is sure to inspire greater love and devotion for the kindly Shepherd, who is always ready to find us and lead us home.

  • Praying With The Church Through Advent

    $18.95

    At the beginning of every Mass, the priest-celebrant says, “Let us pray” and then offers a prayer to God the Father, through Jesus Christ, in union with the Holy Spirit. This Opening Prayer is called the Collect. During Advent, Christmas, Lent, and Easter, this prayer is specific to the day; in the season of Ordinary Time, the Collect for each Sunday is repeated during the following weekday Masses.

    In Praying with the Church through Advent, Fr. Edward Looney offers a short daily meditation and reflection questions on that day’s Collect to help you better appreciate the richness of these liturgical texts and apply them to your life. Journaling pages are included to aid you in your Advent journey so that you may more fruitfully contemplate the liturgy and incorporate the spiritual lessons it offers.

    Fr. Looney invites you to spend a few minutes considering these meditations over a cup of coffee, or while resting in the Lord’s Presence, and praying with them before or after Mass. The reflections and questions may also be used for group discussions. In these absorbing passages, you will find:

    *A greater appreciation for the prayers of the Mass during Advent — and throughout the year
    *The secret to receiving the gifts that God is waiting to give you through the sacraments
    *How to create space for Christ and welcome Him into your heart and your home
    *Ways to deepen your prayer life and your relationship with God amid difficulties and dangers
    *How to break free from darkness and sin and live in the joy and freedom of God’s light
    *Practical tips for living your faith through works of charity in every season

    While you ponder these penetrating prayers, you will learn how to walk more closely with Our Lady and the saints, from biblical heroes to contemporary figures. By developing a more fervent devotion to the Blessed Mother, you will grow in greater love of her Son. As you enter into the mystery of the Word-made-flesh through these reflections, you will encounter Jesus’ Presence in the Holy Eucharist anew and experience the life-changing power of His love so that you may be restored in mind, heart, and soul as never before.

  • Christmas Book : The History, Traditions, And Customs Of Everyone’s Favorit

    $17.95

    Nothing warms the heart like Christmastime. All of us have precious memories of yuletide cheer, from the excitement of anticipation to the frenzy of preparations to the heartfelt family moments.

    Buoyed by the “contagious joy” of Christmas among his congregations in Buffalo and Boston, Fr. Francis X. Weiser compiled a treasure trove of Christmas lore to enrich holiday celebrations for generations to come. Fr. Weiser, who was born in Austria and emigrated to the United States, had long been fascinated by American Christmas culture, which he saw as a consolidation of all the most beloved traditions from the nation’s diverse immigrant communities.

    He relied on interviews with parishioners, once-lost documents, and well-known material culture to get to the root of such cherished customs as Nativity plays, gift giving, and Christmas caroling.

    In addition to exploring the cultural origins of beloved Christmas traditions, Fr. Weiser reveals their spiritual significance and explains their symbolism, including:

    *Why the first Christmas Mass is at midnight

    *The beginnings of Christmas caroling and the stories behind beloved carols

    *How Christmas lights represent Christ, the Light of the World

    *The true Christian origin of the Christmas tree, and the connection between the evergreen and eternal life

    *How various cultures honor St. Nicholas

    *How pre-Christian traditions gained new significance in light of the Incarnation

    Fr. Weiser considered holiday celebrations at home a “radiation of the liturgy,” a beautiful opportunity to cultivate the domestic church in family life.

    Packed with historical and liturgical references, literary excerpts, and charming anecdotes, this book will become a family favorite that’s revisited year after year in homes that welcome it.

    Join Fr. Weiser as he embarks on a tour of the jubilant celebrations that manifests the sublimity of the Incarnation in the American melting pot, from sea to shining sea.

  • Stigmatists : Their Gifts, Their Revelations, Their Warnings

    $29.95

    There have been very few books that offer a serious, reliable, thoughtful look at stigmatists, and specifically, what I call visionary stigmatists. Interestingly, almost all Church-approved stigmatists have been just that: visionaries as well as stigmatists. This book focuses on Church-approved stigmatists and their visions, revelations, and prophecies and warnings. In some cases, the prophecies and warnings relate to the End Times and Second Coming of Christ. That includes the striking revelations of the likes of Saint Faustina (1905-38), the first canonized saint of the new millennium. One might rightly interpret the mark of the stigmata (sometimes invisible stigmata, as in the cases of Saints Faustina and Catherine of Siena) as a heavenly/Church affirmation of these saints’ authenticity, likewise adding a certain authenticity to their claimed visions.

    It is interesting that many people, including Protestants and even non-Christians, are intrigued by stigmata. It seems that nearly everyone finds claims of stigmata fascinating; there doesn’t seem to be a lot of scoffers. Anytime the notion of stigmata is raised, including by Hollywood (albeit sensationally), eyes are wide open.

    This book opens with a comprehensive overview of the phenomenon of stigmata, beginning with the words of St. Paul that some believe might be the first recorded case of stigmata. Aside from St. Paul, Saint Francis (1182-1226) is believed to be the first stigmatist. The opening chapter looks at the data and cases that we know of. Thereafter, the book provides individual chapters focused on figures from Catherine of Siena to Anne Catherine Emmerich, Gemma Galgani, Padre Pio, and more, finishing with Saint Faustina.

    Notably, not all of these stigmatic saints had visions of the Final Days. They need not to have changed history. Some of the special visions were along the lines of St. Francis’s transformational conversations with Jesus at the San Damiano cross, which nonetheless had a significant larger purpose: “Francesco,” said Jesus, “ripara la mia Chiesa.” (“Francis, repair my Church.”)

    Francis did just that. That was a historic moment for the Church and the faith. Unlike the likes of Martin Luther, Francis endeavored upon a genuine reformation.

    These stigmatists and their revelations have spoken to us in profound ways from the time of Christ to the Middle Ages to literally the end times. Truly, there is no more crucial time than now to take a prayerful look at what th

  • Contemporary Catholic Poetry

    $35.00

    Featuring 23 contemporary Catholic poets, from Julia Alvarez and Carolyn Forche to Timothy Murphy and Franz Wright, this anthology is an essential collection that captures the spectrum of the Catholic experience.

    Editors Ryan Wilson and April Lindner have collected the work of Catholic poets born in 1950 and afterward. Featuring diverse styles, aesthetics, and forms, this selection demonstrates “the myriad ways the Church has left its mark on the imaginations of these notable contemporary poets.” A treasury of vibrant beauty–this collection explores the personal, practical, and political, of faith, nature, life, and lament–a welcome gift to all lovers of poetry and language.

    “Poems represent the world and the people who inhabit it: they introduce us to plants, animals, human characters, and highly specific places. They show us striking images that may be familiar to us or entirely eldritch, tell us about experiences that might be akin to our own or quite different from our own. They delight us, seduce us, inspire us, instruct us, mock us, condemn us, console us, and mourn us. They challenge us, protest against us, and, sometimes, they baffle us. They celebrate the glories of the created world and its people, and they commemorate momentous occasions; they also curse the cruelty and the horror of the world and its people, and they lament catastrophes. They imagine other people’s lives and other worlds. They invoke deities and absences. They also speak intimately of heartfelt truths, describe local haunts, and address ordinary people directly. They meditate on living, on dying, and on the passage of time. They tell us stories, they tell us lies, and they tell us stories that reveal the truth through lying, to paraphrase the great painter Pablo Picasso. They enchant us with beauty and appall us with terror. Above all, poems remember. Each poem is, on a fundamental level, an act of remembrance, a kind of handprint pressed against the wall of Time.”–from the Preface of Contemporary Catholic Poetry

  • Eucharistic Reservation : Holy Communion And Worship Of The Eucharistic Mys

    $24.95

    In eucharistic adoration, the faithful spend time in the presence of Christ, who in turn is present to them. In communion services, the faithful unable to participate in the sacrifice of the Mass can still receive its fruit. The Catholic Church wraps both ceremonies inside a larger book called Holy Communion and Worship of the Eucharistic Mystery Outside Mass.
    A revised English translation invites a renewed acquaintance with these forms of prayer. Where did they come from? What is their purpose? How are they best celebrated? In Eucharistic Reservation, Paul Turner explains the new translation of these guidelines and refreshes all those who find delight in the Eucharistic presence of Christ even when Mass is over.

  • Principles Of Catholic Theology Book 3

    $85.00

    What 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.

  • Mission Ready Friendship

    $15.95

    Whether we know it or not, we all have family members or friends who are fighting hidden battles of doubt, alienation, isolation, guilt, compulsions, grief, or hopelessness. But often we don’t know exactly how to offer the Good News of Jesus to them in these struggles–at least not beyond offering our “thoughts and prayers.” Mission-Ready Friendship is a roadmap for how to truly befriend your friends, not by solving their problems for them but by going deeper to become the friend Jesus created you to be.

    Jason J. Simon grew up in a faithful home but wandered into darkness through his high school and college years. For years, he struggled with shame and despair until Chip, a guy he met while eating donuts after Mass, noticed that darkness and disrupted it by being an intentional, thoughtful friend. This relationship changed Simon’s life and eventually inspired him to lead the Evangelical Catholic, a national organization dedicated to helping people discover how God is already at work in the lives of our innermost circle.

    This book spells out simple and incremental practices any Catholic can use to develop deeper, more purposeful friendships. You will learn how to:

    *become more invested, curious, and empathetic toward others;
    *pray for the people God has placed in your life;
    *be ready for the ways God is prompting you to build deeper friendships; and
    *bring intentionality to your relationships to accompany them closer to God.

    Jesus himself used these practices with his followers and sent each of them to use mission-ready friendship to share his good news with others. It’s a simple but powerful approach to relationships that promises to change lives, including your own.

  • Find Peace In Advent

    $15.95

    Is it really possible to find peace during one of the busiest and stress-filled times of the year? Catholic author and self-described “recovering worrier” Gary Zimak offers a practical, scripture-based approach to Advent so we can make room for Jesus in our chaotic, busy, and fast-paced lives.

    While most Catholics have an awareness of Lenten practices, we often don’t know what to do during Advent–even if we know both seasons are times of preparation. On top of this, the holiday season arrives with its own busy rhythms with family and friends. Many of us know that Advent is supposed to be a special season, but we are so pre-occupied with getting ready for the holidays that we fail to benefit from it.

    Find Peace in Advent! will enable you to deepen your relationship with Jesus and find peace during one of the most stressful times of the year. This book, which uses a similar approach to the bestselling Give Up Worry for Lent!, requires only a few minutes of reading each day and helps you grow closer to Jesus and experience the peace that only he can give. The daily readings and reflections are easy to digest and connect to the daily Mass readings and the rhythm of the Advent season. With each entry, Zimak guides you to ponder foundational truths of faith and apply them to your own life with four simple steps:

    *Read
    *Reflect

    As you continue to meditate on scripture and practice the simple action steps at the end of each reflection, you will find it easier to let go of your stress and worries and instead take small steps to deepen your relationship with God and make him the center of your life.

    There is no better time to seek interior peace than Advent, which is a time to prepare to celebrate the many ways Jesus reaches into our lives. This four-week process is more than a survival guide to a busy season–it is a journey by which we learn to walk with Jesus, the one who guides our feet onto the path of peace.

  • Vessels Of Love

    $16.00

    Have 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

  • 1 Holy Catholic And Apostolic

    $17.95

    We live in apocalyptic times: secularization, persecution, and atheism abound. In the history of the Church, the faithful relied on councils to unify and help them weather life’s fierce trials. But what recourse do we have when the synods themselves begin sparking confusion and discord?

    Cardinal Joseph Zen of Hong Kong was formed during the “wind of Pentecost” surrounding the Second Vatican Council and taught theology and philosophy in seminaries for more than fifty years. In these pages, collected from His Eminence’s homilies, pastoral letters, and addresses, Cardinal Zen breaks open the Gospels and Sacred Tradition to help you remain steadfast in the true Faith and enliven your personal relationship with our Lord.

    These wise teachings will safeguard you and provide the spiritual medicine and “rich nutrition” need for fruitful daily living. Cardinal Zen reveals how to transmit the Faith with vitality and love to every generation – even from your own home. Through his insights, drawn from extraordinary real-life experience, you will also glean:

    *Three indispensable elements of the Church that lead directly to Christ
    *The dangers of the Synod on Synodality
    *The “great grace” God has given us and how you can receive it
    *Surefire ways to “test the spirit” and discern the truth
    *How clergy can embody the Good Shepherd
    *How to love and worship God above all and grow in confidence over fear

    Regardless of where you are on your faith journey, Cardinal Zen reminds you: “Jesus has crazily fallen in love with you with all His heart, has dedicated Himself to you, and will not give up on you.” As you encounter Christ’s transformative presence in your life, you will be empowered with the courage to invite others to loving union with Him.

  • Encountering Emmanuel : A Guided Advent Journal For Prayer And Meditation

    $11.95

While the world moves at an ever-faster pace, Heather encourages you to pull back from the hustle and create space for our Savior to come into every area of your life–to transform and heal it through his love.

    In Encountering Emmanuel, using poignant reflections and accompanying videos, Heather will gently guide you into the areas of your heart where Christ has not yet come–the areas where you’ve shut him out, the places you’ve long forgotten and ignored, or the spaces you’re ashamed to acknowledge. You’ll learn how to invite him in so that he can bring his light, love, peace, hope, and healing into your heart. From the forgotten corners to the shadowed recesses, Heather encourages you to open these spaces to the transformative power of Christ’s love.

    Each day will show you a unique way God can come into your life, including the following:

    *he comes in the darkness
    *he comes to set us free
    *he comes to awaken us from slumber
    *he comes as a helpless child
    *he comes as a gift to the world
    *he comes as a person with a face
    *he comes to be our food

    God will not force–love never does–but he asks, and we have a choice. Will you open wide your heart to the Savior and give your fiat as Mary did?

    Each day you’ll journey deeper into the meaning of Advent with a meditation, stunning art specially created for this book by Josiah Henley of Heart of IESVS, reflection questions, a prayer, and journaling space.

    Encountering Emmanuel is perfect for both individual and group use. Free companion videos and a downloadable leader’s guide are available at avemariapress.com.

  • 1 Lord One Faith One Church

    $19.95

    It’s no secret that there is an abundance of so-called Christian sects populating a wide range of churches, with different worship services and teachings regarding the salvation of your soul. But how can one intelligently make sense of this if there is one God who is the same yesterday, today, and forever?

    This book will take you on a fact-based journey from the earliest days of Christianity to now. Wherever your personal faith and belief system currently reside, this book will test that faith and challenge you to believe in the real Jesus, the Jesus of the Gospels, and embrace the fullness of the truth found in the one Church that He established.

    In these incisive pages, Jesse Romero and Paul Zucarelli present hard evidence and challenge you to disprove the facts. They present proof as to why Jesus Christ established the Church and what we are supposed to do while we await the inevitable – the death of our bodies.

    They will help you answer questions such as:

    *What is a “church,” and does man define the term differently from how God defines it?

    *Did God intend to create an unlimited number of churches with differing beliefs and practices?

    *If Jesus Himself created the Church, by what authority does man invent his own churches?
    By what process did so many and varying churches develop?
    You will learn about the historical origins of the Church, early Church leaders, significant places in Church history, where the tenets of the Nicene Creed come from, and how the books of the Bible were selected. In addition, you will gain an understanding of key Church scandals in history and their “triggering events” that led to further fracturing of the Church. You will also discover how precisely to respond to the division that has occurred throughout the centuries.

    Moreover, you will receive the biblical basis for the universal Church and the four supernatural proofs for the one true Church. Reflection questions are provided at the end of each chapter for personal consideration and group discussion.

    How firm is the foundation upon which your faith is built? Test yourself – and test your faith – by reading this book!

  • Wager On Death

    $19.95

    Blaise Pascal reflected that humanity is obsessed with divertissement, that is, diversions. By embracing noise and pleasure, we avoid thinking about anything that may be associated with aging, dying, or our final end. But what if our determination to avoid these thoughts means that we are consigning ourselves to living an aimless life? Best-selling author Vittorio Messori invites you to explore this and other aspects of Pascal’s Wager in a compelling, conversational way.

    In these soul-stirring pages, you will find that death isn’t simply an individual concern but a collective one. Society’s continual advancements in technology and rising political hostilities make the possibility of nuclear apocalypse and other mass extinction events ever more real. Modern culture, however, seems fascinated with death only in entertainment. For death in reality, it relies on euphemisms and escapism rather than direct, honest engagement with the problems of sin, suffering, and grief.

    Through thought-provoking examples from history, entertainment, psychology, and culture, you will learn ways in which society’s treatment of death is impacting education, careers, mental health, and daily living. You will also discover:

    *How death is viewed in light of ideologies from the Enlightenment to Marxism to existentialism

    *The connection between radical liberalism and individualism, which lead to a culture of death

    *Why the burden of proof lies with those who deny the afterlife

    *How the challenge to consider religion is really about human dignity, self-respect, and duty

    *How Christian belief is unique from other religions and its denominational differences

    *What the Bible says about the afterlife, beginning with the Old Testament

    You will also learn ways to restore hope and will see how silence can be a gift and why Messori believes that humor is a virtue. In addition, you will see why the Church’s worldview helps to bring meaning and value to every human life, why death is triumphing in modernity, and how you can help turn the tide by choosing life – now and in the world to come.

  • Flee From Heresy

    $24.95

    Society is lost and confused about God, morality, and eternity. Catholics face persecution, from outside and inside the Church, for living their Faith. Priests speak out against errors and corruption in their own hierarchy, only to be marginalized and punished by their superiors. The few bishops who remain faithful to the changeless teaching of Christ are rebuked and “canceled,” even by the pope himself, and sent into exile. Catholics longing for reverent worship are forced out of their parishes and into makeshift venues.

    This is a description of the Catholic Church in the fourth century.

    With similar patterns recurring in our time, one Catholic bishop is calling out to souls:

    “Know the errors and embrace the truth!”

    In Flee from Heresy, Bishop Athanasius Schneider – raised among persecuted Catholics in the Soviet Union – offers a systematic treatment of more than 130 doctrinal errors, from ancient times down to our own day, along with English translations of the Church’s major anti-heresy documents of the past two centuries.

    In this fascinating expose, you will discover the ideological roots of our own unsteady times and be better equipped to “test all things; hold fast what is good” (1 Thess. 5:21). You will learn:

    *What heresy is – and what it is not
    *A sweeping history of heresies across the centuries
    *How heresy destroys charity and the spiritual life
    *Why God allows heresy to afflict His holy Church
    *Names and categories of more than 130 doctrinal errors
    *The nefarious heresy of the anti-Christ and the anti-Mary
    *How heresy relates to schism, apostasy, and excommunication
    *Why the Virgin Mary is invoked as “Destroyer of Heresies”

    Combining theological precision, superb historical insight, and concrete principles for action today, Flee from Heresy is a timely and trustworthy guide to errors old and new.

  • Franciscan Prayer : Awakening To Oneness With God

  • Logic That God Exists

    $14.95

    “When people stop believing in God, the problem is not that they will believe in nothing, the problem is that they will believe in anything.” – C. S. Lewis

    Business luminary Bob Trussell uses plain language and simple logic to merge scientific theory with philosophy, religion, and the Bible to make an air-tight case for belief in God and all that that can mean for your current life and the life to come. He contends that while most Americans possess some level of belief in God along the scale of zero to one hundred, those with greater belief live happier and more hopeful and peaceful lives on this earth.

    The Logic That God Exists leads you step-by-step through a train of reason that shows not only that God might exist but that He must exist. The book explains in scientific terms how everything cannot come from nothing, how paintings must have painters, computer code must have programmers, and how therefore creation must have a Creator.

    In these fascinating pages, you will also discover:

    *How the laws of nature prove God’s existence
    *Why your DNA points to a Creator
    *Three barriers against belief and how to overcome them
    *Evidence of miracles in the Bible – and today

    Trussell masterfully condenses the logical proofs into understandable lists and summarizes how these truths relate to our modern experience. Also contained is a beginner’s guide to applying the Christian faith to your daily life. Above all, you will discover why you are here and how to attain the true fulfillment of all your desires – now and in eternity.

  • Stories Of The Eucharist

    Stories of the Eucharist invites families to celebrate the transforming power of the Eucharist in our lives by exploring Eucharistic miracles and saints who had deep devotion to the Real Presence of Jesus. This book celebrates in word and illustration forty people and events that reveal how Christ has bestowed graces and even miracles on his people through the Eucharist.

    As you read these stories from the span of Christian tradition with your family, you will experience in a new way the power of the Eucharist and teach your children to open their hearts to the greatest mystery of our Faith.

  • Power Of Reparation

    $18.95

    “The world will be saved when we have a sufficient number of souls devoted to reparation and not before.” – Fr. Raoul Plus, S.J

    The great Jesuit Fr. Raoul Plus lived and wrote in an era of immense suffering – war, early death, religious indifference – that coexisted, not surprisingly, with robust Catholic faith and practice. He called for spiritual maturity before greater scientific advancements.

    In this spiritual masterpiece, Fr. Plus explains every facet of reparation for individual penitents and offers simple, practical ways you can help repair what is falling into ruins in our Church and in our world. You will find inspiring answers to all the key questions about reparation, including:

    *What reparation is and why it matters
    *Why everyone should make reparation
    *How reparation should be made (and what to avoid!)
    *Why devotion to the Sacred Heart and the Holy Eucharist are vital to reparation
    *Why our Lord wants reparation to be the foundation of Christian living

    Fr. Plus’s work is replete with compelling anecdotes that illustrate how developing a spirit of reparation is critical to advancing spiritually. Fr. Plus provides rich insights and examples from our Lady and saints who lived lives of sacrifice, including John the Evangelist, John Vianney, Mary Magdalene, Margaret Mary, and several modern saints.

    Through a dozen scriptural passages that Fr. Plus unpacks, you will learn the theology behind reparation and how to teach it to others. You will also learn how to develop a spirit of reparation according to the circumstances of your life, how to compensate for the sins of others, and why spiritual direction is advised for discerning the types of reparation most suitable for you.

    Above all, you will experience the Call of the King to discover the path that leads to the ultimate goal – joy with the Lord in the afterlife. Each page invites you to enter into Christ’s Heart by sharing in His work of redemption, even in the most seemingly insignificant ways.

    This book, which covers priestly, religious, and lay reparation, includes Pope Pius XI’s celebrated encyclical on reparation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, Miserentissimus Redemptor, as well as a treasury of approved reparation prayers: your complete guide to the nature and practice of reparation.

  • Charles Carroll : Catholic Of The American Revolution

    $21.95

    “I have lived to my ninety-sixth year; I have enjoyed continued health, I have been blessed with great wealth, prosperity, and most of the good things which the world can bestow-public approbation, esteem, applause; but what I now look back on with the greatest satisfaction to myself is, that I have practiced the duties of my religion.”

    So wrote Charles Carroll of Carrollton, the last surviving Signer of the Declaration of Independence, of his Roman Catholic faith just before his death in November 1832. These last words, recorded by Carroll’s friend and confessor, Father Constantine Pise of Georgetown, were not the pious hyperbole of an old man. For the last Founding Father, who, next to his Bible, cherished Thomas a Kempis’s Imitation of Christ as the greatest of books, was a courageous witness to the Roman Catholic Church throughout his life and strove, like Thomas, to find union with God in humility and self-denial, and especially in frequent reception of the Blessed Sacrament. It is cause for great joy to think that a Signer of the Declaration of Independence was intensely devoted to the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist.

    In this fascinating book by historian Fr. Charles Connor, you’ll come to know Charles Carroll, his role in founding the American Republic, and the role his Faith played in his life.

  • Back In 7

    $19.99

    This 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.

  • Sacred Heart Gems

    $16.95

    The Marian Fathers and, more importantly, the magisterium of the Catholic Church teach that there is no contradiction or competition between the message of the Sacred Heart as revealed to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque and the Divine Mercy message and devotion as revealed to St. Faustina Kowalska. Devout Catholics know this. After all, it’s the same Jesus who revealed His Sacred Heart to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque and, centuries later, revealed the Divine Mercy message and devotion to St. Faustina Kowalska. While each respective message has a distinct emphasis — for example, the message of the Sacred Heart focuses on reparation while the Divine Mercy Message and Devotion focuses on living a spirituality of trust in God’s unfathomable mercy — each message comes from the same source, the Divine Person of Jesus Christ. There are lots and lots of other saints, blesseds, venerables, servants of God, and popes who loved the Sacred Heart and wrote about it. Each of the 366 days contains an invocation from the Litany of the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

  • After Christendom

    $18.95

    We are living through the greatest catastrophe since the fall of the Roman Empire. Western civilization isn’t dying: it’s already dead. Christendom is no more. What we see around us now isn’t Christian. It’s not even a civilization. It’s a walking corpse.

    That’s the bad news. The good news is that the West can be reborn someday. We know this because it died once before. Who brought it back? The mystics, the martyrs, and the missionaries. Now they must save the West once again.

    In this prescient work, Michael Warren Davis examines just how bad the situation is and how much worse it’s going to get. He weaves together examples from history and literature to illustrate how societies fell and how various saints helped them rise again. Throughout, he reflects on the transformative power and benefits of persecution and suffering to show how Christians can survive and indeed flourish in the new Dark Age that’s descending.

    These penetrating pages will help you move from a “Culture War” mindset to one of answering the Great Commission. You will learn how to form intentional Christian communities to ward off spiritual isolation and come to understand what St. Augustine, the chief architect of Christendom’s first renaissance, taught about why God allows the City of Man to fall in the first place. Additionally, you will discover:

    *The only weapon in your arsenal (can you guess?)
    *What role laughter played in the early Church’s victory
    *How to attain xenitia, the first stage of spiritual development
    *Methods to grow in union with Christ through meditative prayer
    *The fruits of street evangelization and your call to go into the vineyard
    *How drawing from Eastern Christianity can help renew our culture again

    Above all, you will find out how you can respond to the crisis of the early twenty-first century with the wisdom of the ages – to testify to your Faith, help restore beauty, and cultivate authentic love in the modern world. For, according to Davis, every Christian has a role to play. All are called to share their faith person-to-person to help rebuild the Church, and once again the tears of mystics, the sweat of missionaries, and the blood of martyrs will become the seed of the Church. Despite the darkness, by imitating their witness, you will find unshakable peace and joy in the face of what is to come.
