Thoughts for All Times
ISBN: 9781496092830 / Angielski / Miękka / 428 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. THIS is an age when every good and Christian writer who can" get himself read," as Carlyle would say, should print and publish as much as he can. For as evil writings do incalculably more harm than evil speech, so good writings are indefinitely more efficacious than mere spoken addresses. Our Holy Father, Pope Leo XIII., has exhorted us to oppose writing to writing-" scripta scriptis,"-to use the press to fight against the press. It is consoling, therefore, to welcome a new book by a writer who can securely count on a large number of readers. It would be a mistake to call these essays of...

Ten African Cardinals
ISBN: 9781922168863 / Angielski / Miękka / 376 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. While the Catholic Church is languishing in much of the West, by contrast it flourishes across Africa. Despite this, most African Church leaders remain unknown in the West, even among better informed Catholics. Sally Ninham's timely book remedies this via her in-depth interviews with a cross section of Africa's senior Catholic churchmen. Their stories provide first-hand insights into the religious, political, social and economic situations in their countries. Some of these leaders have played key roles in the midst of political turmoil, civil wars, rampant corruption and extreme poverty. Dr...

Truth and Relevance : Catholic Theology in French Quebec since the Quiet Revolution
ISBN: 9780773543256 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. After the Quiet Revolution, the Catholic church lost its stronghold in Quebec. Despite this decline, or perhaps because of it, contemporary Catholic thought in Quebec exhibits a bold creativity. In Truth and Relevance, Gregory Baum introduces, contextualizes, and interprets Catholic theological writing in Quebec since the 1960s, and presents this body of work for an anglophone readership. Baum shows how Catholic theologians, inspired by the Second Vatican Council (1962-65), uncovered the social meaning in the Christian message, allowing them to address many problems and concerns of...

Journey of Faith: A Bridge Between God and Man
ISBN: 9781304895363 / Angielski / Twarda / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Hopefully, the reader will gain some insight into the world of spirituality for the years to come and will be motivated to have a closer connection to God and not to religion as such. There are many questions asked but the answers are up to the reader. Richard Money doesn't expect Journey of Faith to be a record-breaking novel. In fact, the only reason it is being written is because so many people have told Richard over the years that he has a book in him. When is he going to get it out? Well, here it comes, for better or for worse. Journey of Faith is comprised of many incidents in his life...

Women of Catholicity: Memoirs of Margaret O'Carrol, Isabella of Castile, Margaret Roper, Marie de L'Incarnation, Marguerite Bourgeouys, Eath
ISBN: 9781496092946 / Angielski / Miękka / 266 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This is the golden thread interwoven with the noble life-work of an Isabella of Castile-a princess of great renown in her own and all succeeding times, on account of the masculine energy of character which impelled her to high heroic deeds for the glory of God and the defence of His Church, softened and refined by the gracious sweetness and womanly tenderness which made all hearts her own. Turning from this grand and queenly figure we find the same all-pervading supernatural element in the lovely and loveable Margaret Roper, the perfect daughter of the saintly Sir Thomas More, her filial...

A Spiritual Canticle of the Soul and the Bridegroom of Christ

THE present volume of the works of St. John of the Cross contains the explanation of the 'Spiritual Canticle of the Soul and the Bridegroom Christ.' The two earlier works, the, 'Ascent of Mount Carmel' and the 'Dark Night of the Soul' dealt with the cleansing of the soul, the unremittant war against even the smallest imperfections standing in the way of union with God; imperfections which must be removed, partly by strict self-discipline, partly by the direct intervention of God, Who, searching 'the reins and hearts' by means of heavy interior and exterior trials, purges away whatever is...

The author writes: Do we not every day see efforts persistently made, and unjustly enforced, even at the certain risk of anarchy, to render to Caesar not only what belongs to Caesar, but also to concentrate in him all rights, human and Divine; to constitute him the sole guardian, depositary, and dispenser of what belongs to God; and this, ill defiance of all the principles of true liberty, despite solemn treaties, and in violation of all guaranteed rights of conscience? Does not this all-absorbing power of the State, resting solely on brute force, by an unholy league Which embraces both...

The author writes: AFTER having offered to pious souls four volumes of Meditations, according to the method of St. Ignatius, on the Life and Mysteries of our Lord Jesus Christ, it seemed natural to consecrate at least one volume to the Feasts of the Blessed Virgin and the Saints. Among the latter, we have chosen first those whose devotion is the most widespread, as the Apostles, the Founders of Religious Orders, etc.; second, those who, having lived in times nearer to our own, and having sanctified theInselves in common and ordinary positions of life, seem to present models more within our...

The author writes: In this book I have attempted to draw out, in English, arguments that bear on the existence and knowableness of God. By so doing, I do not pretend to offer to the reader anything new; I have neither invented nor discovered the arguments. In their general outlines they have been before the human mind during all the ages. My only aim has been to show that, in the warfare with infidelity, those arguments are as available at present as in any period of the past, and that as weapons of pefence they need only, as it were, to be refurbished anew, that they may be perfectly well...

How to Get On

IT is universally admitted that energy and strength of purpose are eminently characteristic of the American people. It is highly important, therefore, to direct these admirable qualities into proper paths, and lead them to a noble end. But it is evident that there are many causes existing in our country which may tend to divert these noble qualities from their proper objects. Protestantism has abandoned almost all dogma. The wildest confusion as to what man should believe everywhere exists. As a natural consequence, infidelity and most dangerous superstitions are on the increase among...

Neumann, he still lives in the hearts of all that knew him; and many have expressed the wish that his memory should be preserved, his biography written for the edification of posterity. For this reason, Superiors several years ago entrusted to me the task of compiling his Life-a task whose accomplishment was by no means easy. For although the servant of God performed many great deeds, his extraordinary humility enabled him to conceal them, in a measure, from the eyes of all save God alone. The...

This book is especially designed for the instruction of novices who sincerely desire to enter a religious community. It may be read with much fruit by all those who wish to lead exemplary lives.

ON entering the church, ask yourself, as Blessed Berchmans was accustomed to do: Where am I going? I am going to present myself before the Eternal Father, to offer Him the sacrifice of His Divine Son. Then, knowing that you are in the presence of God, kneel with deepest respect before the holy altar. Renew your general intention to honour God; add to it expressly the offering of your Communion in union with the objects of the Sacrifice. Propose to yourself a special intention, which you may plainly express, so as not to content yourself with vague prayer; which are apt to be made without...

Sacerdos Sanctificatus: or Discourses on the Mass and Office
ISBN: 9781496180612 / Angielski / Miękka / 182 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. UNLESS a Priest esteem the Holy Sacrifice as it deserves, he can never celebrate it with suitable devotion. Assuredly there is no action, which man can perform, so sublime, so sacred, as the celebration of Mass. God himself could not enable a man to perform anything greater than the celebration of Mass. All the ancient sacrifices, by which God was so much honored, were but shadows and figures of our sacrifice of the altar. All the honor that angels by their adorations, and men by their good works, austerities, and even martyrdoms, have ever rendered or will ever render to God, never could,...

The Theology of the Faith
ISBN: 9781496180650 / Angielski / Miękka / 356 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The subject of faith, although one of absorbing interest at all times, has, perhaps, in recent years, given rise to more discussion than at any time in hlstory. Differences of opinion in connexion with it at the present time turn not so much upon the truths of faith-upon what men are bound to believe and what they are to reject as upon the nature of faith itself. The great Encyclical of our Holy Father the Pope on the errors of Modernism (Pascendi) brings this fact prominently before us. Yet these errors could not have arisen if men had not previously rejected certain fundamental and...
