First Glance at Adrienne von Speyr - 2nd Edition

History & Biography

“Von Speyr was one of the great Catholic converts of the twentieth century. Her great passion was what might be called 'the thirst for catholicity' — the unreserved, joyful adherence to all the teachings of the Church and the attitude of total surrender to the Truth.”

Mark

Bible Studies & Devotionals

“These concrete and profound meditations have the potential to open the reader's ears to hear the living voice of God's Word resounding in the pages of Mark's Gospel. Adrienne von Speyr does not offer information, or scholarly commentary, but help in prayerfully receiving the presence of Christ himself. In Adrienne's hands, Scripture becomes a school of prayer: she leads us to Mark, Mark leads us to Christ, and Christ leads us to the Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit.”

Matter as an Image of the Good

Philosophy

Foreword

“Doctor Coleman’s thematic focus—the role that Ferdinand Ulrich sees matter playing in the manifestation of divine goodness ad extra—provides her with a lens through which to exhibit the architecture of Ulrich’s entire metaphysics without sacrificing precision, economy, or grace. In so doing, she has produced one of the first, as well as one of the finest, accounts of Ulrich’s metaphysical vision in any language.”

The Word

Prayer & Spiritual Formation

“These meditations on the Prologue of Saint John's Gospel are at once sublime and practical, mystical and concrete. They unlock the depths of the sacred text for those willing to encounter it on its own terms as an inexhaustible spring of living water, an ever-fresh self-disclosure of the incarnate Word who reveals the Father in the Holy Spirit.”
