Catherine of Siena
$21.95Engage in Historical Biography at its Most Compelling Set in 14th century Medieval Europe, Catherine of Siena documents a path of humble servitude and devotion leading to some of the most pivotal decisions in the Christian world of that era. Nobel Prize-winning author Sigrid Undset’s heartfelt biography portrays one of the most dynamic women ever to live. At a time when it was rare for women to gain power in society, Catherine’s dedication and focus drove her to play a prominent role in the Catholic Church. Recognizing her calling from an early age, she joined an informal group centered on Dominican spirituality and quickly gained notoriety as a mystic. She is well-known for influencing Pope Gregory XI to move from Avignon to Rome. She later strongly supported Pope Urban VI and remained a guiding voice in the church until her death in 1380. Catherine’s exemplary faithfulness, prayer, and service to the poor gained her recognition at the highest levels of the Church, and she was called upon as a peacemaker. Recently declared the patron saint of Europe, her holiness and knowledge continue to inspire all who read her story. Having extensively researched Medieval Europe for her seminal works of historical fiction, Sigrid Undset was uniquely qualified to study primary sources and breathe life into the biography of St Catherine. Her sensitivity to the devotional heart and unparalleled understanding of time and place is transporting as she paints an insightful portrait of this truly inspirational Christian woman. An uncommonly inspirational work, Catherine of Siena is well suited as a compelling read or a unique gift.

Love Unveiled: The Catholic Faith Explained
$18.95“Man cannot live without love…. His life is senseless if love is not revealed to him, if he does not encounter love, if he does not experience it and make it his own, if he does not participate intimately in it.” — John Paul II, Redemptor Hominis

Using the Catechism of the Catholic Church as his itinerary, Sri will walk you through all the important aspects of the Catholic Church—what Catholics believe about God and the difference it should make in life. Along the way he addresses such often-heard questions More than an intellectual enterprise, this work is also a deep spiritual reflection and a practical guide to living out our faith in Christ.

Utopia
$12.00Thomas More’s Utopia is a masterpiece of Renaissance political philosophy, responsible for introducing the term ‘utopia’ and spawning an entire genre of ‘utopian’ and ‘dystopian’ literature. This Penguin Classics edition is a major new translation from the Latin by Dominic Baker-Smith, and includes an introduction and notes on the text.
‘Even if you can’t eradicate harmful ideas or remedy established evils, that’s no reason to turn your back on the body politic’
In Utopia, Thomas More gives us a traveller’s account of a newly-discovered island where the inhabitants enjoy a social order based on natural reason and justice, and human fulfilment is open to all. As the traveller, Raphael, describes the island to More, a bitter contrast is drawn between this rational society and the custom-driven practices of Europe. So how can the philosopher try to reform his society? In his fictional discussion, More takes up a question first raised by Plato and which is still a challenge in the contemporary world. In the history of political thought few works have been more influential than Utopia, and few more misunderstood.
Dominic Baker-Smith’s introduction examines the conflicting voices and perspectives of More’s masterpiece and relates them to the European context of his time. This new edition also includes a chronology, notes, appendices, glossary and suggested further reading.
Thomas More (1478-1535) succeeded Cardinal Wolsey as Lord Chancellor of England, but came into conflict with the king, Henry VIII, by refusing to acknowledge him as sole head of the church. Charged with high treason, More steadfastly refused to take an oath impugning the pope’s authority or upholding the king’s divorce from Catherine of Aragon. More was tried as a traitor at Westminster Hall, and beheaded on Tower Hill. He was canonized by Pope Pius XI in 1935.Add to cartOnly 1 left in stock

Classic Literature Made Simple: Fifty Great Books in a Nutshell
$17.95It has been said, quite correctly, that we write as well as we read. It can also be said that we think as well as we read. Since reading well is so important, it is good to get into the habit of reading good books. The better the book, the better will be our ability to think well and write well.
In Classic Literature Made Simple, literary expert Joseph Pearce takes the reader on a guided tour of fifty great works of literature. The author of over thirty books, Pearce uses his experience of teaching literature at college level for over twenty years to show the reader the moral dimension of each work. He shows how each work presents a mystical mirror to the reader, offering insights into the meaning of life itself.
“Christian civilization has given birth to numerous great books as it has given birth to numerous great saints, “Joseph Pearce writes. “The former should be canonized as are the latter. Great books, like great saints, enrich our faith as they enrich our culture. As such, reading good books should be an integrated part of leading a good life.”
Those who read this book will learn how to read the great books well, which will help them to live the good life well.Add to cartOnly 1 left in stock

The Spirit of the Liturgy
$19.99In honor of its fortieth anniversary (1978–2018), Ignatius Press presents a special Commemorative Edition of one of the most important works written by Joseph Ratzinger, The Spirit of the Liturgy.
This edition includes the earlier classic work with the same title by Servant of God Romano Guardini, a book that helped Ratzinger to “rediscover the liturgy in all its beauty, hidden wealth and time-transcending grandeur, to see it as the animating center of the Church, the very center of Christian life”.
Considered by Ratzinger devotees as one of his greatest works, this profound and beautifully written treatment of the liturgy will help readers to deepen their understanding of the “great prayer of the Church”. The cardinal discusses fundamental misunderstandings of the Second Vatican Council’s intentions for liturgical renewal, especially about the priest’s orientation of prayer to the Father, the placement of the tabernacle in churches, and the posture of kneeling.
Other important topics are the essence of worship, the Jewish roots of Christian prayer, the relationship of the liturgy to time and space, sacred art and music, and the active participation of the faithful in the Mass.

Socrates’ Children Special Edition Box Set
$79.95Peter Kreeft, esteemed philosophy professor and author of over eighty books, has taught college philosophy for sixty years. Throughout those decades, he yearned for a beginner’s philosophy text that was clear, accessible, enjoyable, and exciting (perhaps even funny). Finding none that met those criteria, he eventually decided to write it himself.
In this special edition four-volume box set, Kreeft delivers, with his characteristic wit and clarity, an introduction to philosophy via the hundred greatest philosophers of all time. Socrates’ Children examines the big ideas of four major eras—ancient, medieval, modern, and contemporary—and immerses the reader in the “great conversation,” the ongoing dialogue among the great thinkers of history, including the most influential philosopher of all: Socrates, the father of Western philosophy.

Salt and Light: The Spiritual Journey of Elisabeth and Felix Leseur
$17.95Élisabeth and Félix Leseur began their life together in France as a carefree young couple with a bright future ahead of them. They were beautifully and compatibly matched, except for one major difference—Élisabeth was a devout Catholic, and Félix was a firmly decided atheist. As they faced the seasons of life together, their relationship was tested, and both were called to deep spiritual transformation.
Out of love for her husband, Élisabeth spent her life offering her many sufferings for the sake of his conversion. After her death, and in response to the profound love he encountered in her writings, Félix converted and offered the rest of his life to God as a Dominican priest.
This biography is a lovely narrative of their marriage and the transformative power of God’s love and grace in their lives. It also presents a charming picture of upper-middle-class French society at the turn of the last century. The cause for the canonization of Élisabeth Leseur has been opened by the Catholic Church.

Meeting the Protestant Response: How to Answer Common Comebacks to Catholic Arguments
$22.95Thanks to apologetics, millions of regular Catholics have learned to give good reasons for the things they believe, usually to Protestants who challenge their faith with a Bible verse or historical claim. But those critics of the Church have been paying attention, and now they have their own answers to rebut the standard Catholic proofs. In Meeting the Protestant Response, Karlo Broussard follows up his bestselling Meeting the Protestant Challenge by looking at the fresh counter-arguments that Evangelical pastors and scholars have developed and taught their followers to make. On subjects like the Eucharist, the papacy, salvation, and the veneration of saints, Karlo breaks down these new comebacks, shows how they don’t actually disprove the classic Catholic argument, and offers more biblical, logical ways to explain and defend the doctrines and practices of our faith.

Canceled : Twelve Catholic Heroes That History Turned Into Villains
$23.95In Canceled, historian Steve Weidenkopf (The Real Story of Catholic History) digs into some of the most controversial Catholics ever to capture the popular imagination. He looks at notorious figures like Christopher Columbus and Marie Antoinette, so associated with their presumed evils that the modern world has completely written them off-canceled them from any favorable mention or memory. And worse, the world now uses them as brushes to tar the whole Church. Weidenkopf discovers, though, that these figures are actually victims of a concerted project of defamation, their lives twisted and misrepresented by the Church’s enemies: Enlightenment philosophers, Protestant rebels, modern secularists, and even malcontents within Catholicism. What is official history getting wrong about Torquemada or Pius IX? Could there really be another side to the story of “Bloody” Mary Tudor? Or Guy Fawkes? Weidenkopf cuts through centuries of shady lies and viral myths (maybe you even believed them!) to get to the amazing truths about these and other maligned men and women of God. Canceled is not a whitewash, but rather a much-needed work of correction. Skillfully challenging the anti-Catholic historical record, it comes to the defense of faithful (though hardly flawless) Catholics whose reputations have been unfairly blackened-and to the defense of the Faith with which they are forever linked.

Hope : The Autobiography
$32.00Hope is the first autobiography in history ever to be published by a Pope. Written over six years, this complete autobiography starts in the early years of the twentieth century, with Pope Francis’s Italian roots and his ancestors’ courageous migration to Latin America, continuing through his childhood, the enthusiasms and preoccupations of his youth, his vocation, adult life, and the whole of his papacy up to the present day.
In recounting his memories with intimate narrative force (not forgetting his own personal passions), Pope Francis deals unsparingly with some of the crucial moments of his papacy and writes candidly, fearlessly, and prophetically about some of the most important and controversial questions of our present times: war and peace (including the conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East), migration, environmental crisis, social policy, the position of women, sexuality, technological developments, the future of the Church and of religion in general.
Hope includes a wealth of revelations, anecdotes, and illuminating thoughts. It is a thrilling and very human memoir, moving and sometimes funny, which represents the “story of a life” and, at the same time, a touching moral and spiritual testament that will fascinate readers throughout the world and will be Pope Francis’s legacy of hope for future generations.
The book is enhanced by remarkable photographs, including private and unpublished material made personally available by Pope Francis himself.Add to cartIn stock

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.”

Near Death Experiences
$18.95Near-death experiences (NDEs) are endlessly fascinating for those who long for Heaven or are just curious about the things we cannot see (yet). Lost in all the discussion of NDEs, however, is their long, rich history. Saints and mystics have been visiting Heaven for thousands of years, and here, for the first time, Scott L. Smith provides you with a glimpse of what they’ve been seeing these past two millennia.
In these heart-pounding pages, you will first learn about the ancient origin of NDEs and seven characteristics that describe them. Then, through studies of present-day cardiac and comatose patients, you will see what modern medical research says about NDEs. (You will be surprised!)
You will see remarkable similarities between the NDE stories of biblical figures, such as Jonah, St. Paul, and St. John the Evangelist, and those of more modern individuals, such as Therese of Lisieux, Faustina Kowalska, and Padre Pio. Smith shares an array of God’s merciful messages from the great beyond through people’s visits to Hell, Purgatory, and Heaven, documenting current-day stories, including:
*The NDEs of Fr. Cedric Pesigna, including one while watching a Boston Red Sox game
*Author Kevin Wells’s story of Heaven’s victory over his certain death and spiritual oppression
*Sondra Abrahams’s NDE, which drove home the importance of reforming our lives and praying for the dead – even if we think they are without hope or definitely in Heaven
*The NDE of Fr. Stephen Scheier, who glimpsed Hell because of the casual way he treated the sacrament of Confession – and his transformative encounter with Our Lady
You will learn of how St. Teresa of Avila returned to life after being dead for four days and the details of her stunning visits to Heaven and Hell. You will also be treated to the NDE account of Pope St. Gregory the Great and the incredible NDE of one of St. Padre Pio’s priestly spiritual sons, while in battle, and how Padre Pio accompanied him.
Smith reveals why some souls remain in Purgatory for decades – and how others choose Hell. But throughout, you will be consoled by stories of God’s limitless mercy, which never ceases calling us to repentance and inviting us to share in the glories of His heavenly kingdom.

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.

Super Habits : The Universal System For A Successful Life
$24.95For too many of us, life is harder than it needs to be. We have forgotten the ancient system of “super habits” – a specific set of habits for making decisions, managing our emotions, and dealing with other people that fosters lives of greater ease, happiness, and power.
Ancient civilizations relied on these habits to produce some of the greatest achievements in human history. Now, contemporary researchers in psychology, education, and management are rediscovering these habits and empirically demonstrating the power and goodness that they bring to everyday life.
As many self-help gurus will tell you, we are the summation of our daily habits. What has so far been missing is a comprehensive guide to which habits are most valuable to us and how they work together as a system, for the best impact on our lives.
This invaluable book by Dr. Andrew Abela shows how attaining virtue requires not a herculean effort but, rather, steady daily practice, which is accessible to all. He explains how the genius of a thirteenth-century philosopher-monk codified the super habits into a veritable human operating system, one that’s more relevant today than ever.
Abela highlights:
*How super habits make life easier – because once something becomes a habit, it takes less effort
*Why super habits lead to lasting joy rather than just temporary gratification
*The effects of super habits on physical, mental, and emotional health
In a culture that prioritizes short-term fixes over long-term solutions, Super Habits offers a foundational, back-to-basics plan that produces both immediate and enduring results.
Whatever issue you are struggling with right now, whatever challenge you may be facing, there is a super habit to help you overcome it.
Dr. Abela equips readers with the tools needed to embrace the lifelong pursuit of self-improvement to attain a life of greater ease, joy, and strength.

Flee From Heresy
$24.95Society 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.

1 Lord One Faith One Church
$19.95It’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.

By what process did so many and varying churches develop?

Cultural Meltdown : The Secular Roots Of Our Moral Crisis
$24.95In this incisive work, Bill Donohue pulls no punches as he contends that our moral crisis is a reflection of two competing visions of morality – one religious and the other secular. The former is grounded in our Judeo-Christian tradition, the latter in radical notions of liberty and equality that are tearing us asunder.
Donohue explains how the religious vision acknowledges belief in God, truth, human nature, natural law, moral absolutes, and Original Sin. It understands the limits of the human condition and thus rejects the notion that human perfectibility can be realized on earth. The secular vision believes none of this, and its adherents are bent on destroying the last vestiges of our religious heritage.
Weaving together examples from the earliest centuries to the Enlightenment to modern times, Donohue seamlessly lays out how to restore our moral code so that the mainstreaming of madness is terminated and rolled back. You will find answers about:
*The immorality of legal decisions and their after-effects
*The connection between freedom and truth – and the secret to their restoration
*Whether all cultures and civilizations are morally equal
*The balance between individual rights and the common good
*The importance of natural law and reason in guiding society
*What is filling the void of secularization (You will be shocked!)Additionally, Donohue exposes religious bigotry toward Christians in America and sounds the alarm for governmental accountability since free speech is no longer tolerated when it opposes the approved narrative. The secular vision, he further attests, embraces and promotes radical ideas about sexuality that work to the detriment of individuals and society. Donohue explains how accepting the postmodern, sexually decadent views of “intellectual visionaries” has historically led to violent chaos in other cultures – and may well do so again.
Donohue probes the deep-seated animus that secular intellectuals hold against Western civilization -the United States in particular – and concludes that many have simply given up on their utopian dreams and turned to anarchism and nihilism. He stirringly reveals how their deeply flawed vision of man and society is the source of what ails us and how we will have to recapture our religious roots to restore normalcy. There is no third way.

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.

*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 livingFr. 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.

After Christendom
$18.95We 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 againAbove 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.
