Church Unity and the Papal Office
Theology
“As Pope John Paul II and his predecessor Paul VI have said, understanding the Petrine ministry of the Bishop of Rome and how it might be exercised in the future is key to the search for Christian unity. Only honest dialogue about where we stand on this question and a sincere openness to the guidance of the Holy Spirit will allow progress in fidelity to Christ's will for his people. This book offers an important ecumenical contribution to the present status of the question and careful exploration of possible avenues into a shared future.”
Preaching & Worship
“The Eucharistic sacrifice makes sacramentally available Christ’s love for his Father and for us. These reflections by our Holy Father make available for our spiritual formation the truths that shape our life in Christ’s body, the Church. They bring again to our attention the wisdom born of love.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“Encountering Jesus Christ converts both people and their societies. This book explores at length and with the requisite expertise the dynamic of the many societal conversions set forth by Pope Benedict XVI in Caritas in Veritate. . . . A unique response to a profound encyclical.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“Combining the passion of personal conscience and the convictions of reason and faith, Sheila Liaugminas analyzes conflicted points in our culture in the light of first principles. It's a good tool in skilled hands.”
Evangelism & Missions
“Cardinal Tomko has given us a gift in this book that can help us appreciate the Church's response today to the mission given her by Christ two thousand years ago. He deserves our gratitude too for what he has done for the missionary well being of the Church over the years that he was Prefect of the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples. This book is an invitation to share in his generous missionary spirit and, like him, to do great things for the Lord.”
Christian Living
“Kreeft analyzes the most winsome articles of Aquinas’ Summa. Here, knowledge, wisdom and spirituality work together to transform lives.”
History & Biography
“Jason Evert has synthesized the life and teaching of Pope John Paul II around the motives that mark a saint's life: what great loves moved him to be the witness to the Gospel, the apostle to the modern world, a mystic who was also philosopher and pastor? Reading this book, those who knew him will find themselves smiling and nodding; those who never met him will come to know him.”
World Religions
“The Promise book brings together reflections by Cardinal Jean-Marie Lustiger on identity and relationships among Jews, Christians, and 'pagans.' It evokes hope in the heart and repeats promises that only God can bring to fulfillment. The collected pieces in the book now become Cardinal Lustiger's testament and allow his voice to continue to be heard by all who believe that the destiny of the world is bound up with God's sometimes enigmatic choice of both Jews and Christians.”
Theology
“Martin clarifies a doctrinal point that has been often obscured but must be recovered as a necessary foundation for the 'new evangelization.' This is a uniquely important book.”
Women
“This seminal book pursues a question that is critical to the spiritual future of our world. Michele Schumacher has assembled a team of thinkers — all but one of whom are women — who, by drawing on human wisdom, the Bible, the tradition of the Church, and the teaching of Pope John Paul II, present a philosophical and theological reflection that coalesces into a radiant witness to femininity. This is feminism according to God's loving plan of salvation.”
