Why We're Catholic assembles the clearest, friendliest, most helpful answers that Trent learned to give to people. Beginning with how we can know reality and ending with our hope of eternal life, it's the perfect way to help skeptics and seekers (or Catholics who want to firm up their faith) understand the evidence that bolsters our belief - and brings us joy.

Awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979, Mother Teresa humbly accepted it on behalf of the poorest of the poor to whom she joyfully dedicated her life. Truly a saint for the 20th century, she taught compassion not only for the sick and destitute, but also for the lonely, neglected, and unappreciated who surround us every day.

At the end of the 19th century, the young missionary Henry Drummond was asked to replace a famous preacher. Though at the beginning he did not convince the audience, they were soon captivated by his analysis of the words of the Apostle Paul. This sermon, The Greatest Thing in the World, has become a classic and is, without doubt, one of the most beautiful texts ever written on love.

"We are to love God for Himself, because of a twofold reason; nothing is more reasonable, nothing is more profitable." On Loving God is first a touching description of God's love for us as unmistakenly demonstrated in the death of His Son. Second, it is a call for us to joyfully respond to God like the child who runs and embraces her father whose love is sure. As St. Bernard writes, "They love all the more because they know themselves to be loved so exceedingly."

Western civilization has no more eloquent defender than Anthony Esolen, a man who has counted the cost, and paid it, of leading the way in that defense. Following on his compelling prior volume, Defending Marriage: Twelve Arguments for Sanity, Professor Esolen returns, this time in defense of boys and an experience of boyhood that is on the wane, if not extinguished in many quarters of the modern world.

Here, Anthony Esolen, professor at Providence College and a prolific writer, uses moral, theological, and cultural arguments to defend this holy and ancient institution, bedrock of society - and to illuminate the threats it faces from modern revolutions in law, public policy, and sexual morality.

Through the guidance of prayer and church teaching, Jonathon Vogel delivers this second instalment in this reflective series on God’s love for us. He explores what it means to truly live out the calling we all have to become saints in our everyday lives. Vogel mentions, “As I’ve continued this series on the Trinity, one profound realization I’ve learned is that everything begins and ends in love...I find the deepest peace, joy, and meaning in Jesus that I simply can’t find anywhere else (and believe me, I’ve tried).”

Publicada por primera vez en 1845., El Criterio representa una defensa vigorosa del pensamiento católico frente a las corrientes filosóficas y políticas emergentes en Europa durante el siglo XIX, particularmente el liberalismo y el racionalismo. El Criterio de Balmes aborda cuestiones fundamentales sobre la verdad, la razón y la fe. En ella, Balmes argumenta que la razón y la fe no son incompatibles, sino complementarias, y sostiene que la fe proporciona un fundamento sólido para la razón y la moralidad.

"Do you want to be healed?" Jesus asks that question several times in the Bible—of the woman at the well, Bartimaeus the blind man, the woman caught in adultery, the rich young man—and he asks the same of you as well. Do You Want to Be Healed? is a ten-day personal retreat that uses a healing process similar to the one found in the author Bob Schuchts's bestselling book Be Healed.

Have you ever walked into someone's home and felt an overwhelming sense of peace? This tranquil atmosphere is often created intentionally through spiritual blessings, reflecting the biblical principle found in Proverbs 24:3-4, "By wisdom a house is built, and through understanding it is established; through knowledge its rooms are filled with rare and beautiful treasures." "Bless This House: Prayers to Cleanse and Protect Your Home" harnesses this wisdom to help you consecrate and safeguard your own living space.

Holy Father Benedict, the father of monks in the West, is one of the greatest saints of the Church's illustrious halls of fame. His movement to become a hermit and found monasteries, writing the famous Rule of St. Benedict, was the decisive moment of monasticism's growth in the West, under the maxim of ora et labora, "prayer and work." His blessing caused a poisoned cup to shatter and a raven to swipe away poisoned bread; he miraculously saved someone from drowning, and he raised another from the dead. This is the story of the holiest monk of the West, the hero among religious founders.

Human rights should protect the dignity and well-being of all people. But in today's deeply divided world, some argue that cultural differences and economic inequality undermine their universality.
