Apologetics
“The historical information that Cardinal Dulles gathers and the analysis that he gives of the history of the apologetical method will be invaluable to today's apologists.”
Christian Living
“Fr. Rutler says, 'The gremlin that haunts our times is not heresy as much as it is ignorance.'; But how to overcome ignorance? It must be not just with truth but with winsomeness—two things Fr. Rutler has in spades.”
Theology
“In Catholic Christianity, Peter Kreeft has taken the core of the Catechism's teaching and has represented it in his pithy and winning style. The result is the best entree to the Catechism yet-and therefore the best entree to the Catholic faith.”
Evangelism & Missions
“The young Catholics of St. Paul Street Evangelization have been remarkably successful in drawing to the Catholic faith people who had little interest in religion. In these pages are their stories: full of hope, full of joy, and full of success.”
History & Biography
“This is more than a chronicle of events. This is the story of hearts and minds intertwined and divided, set against one another by things sometimes within the characters' control and sometimes not. It is vintage Belloc.”
Apologetics
“This is really three books in one that offers not only a compelling conversion story, but documented facts that are likely to cinch many other conversions.”
How to Share Your Faith with Anyone
Evangelism & Missions
“It's one thing to know theory. It's something else to be able to put theory into practice. Many people know the Catholic faith well, but not many can convey Catholic teaching winningly. Terry Barber is one of the few who can. In this straightforward book, which is based on thirty years of in-the-trenches evangelism, he shows how to pass along to others what you already know but may not know how to share. He begins with "eight laws of effectively sharing the faith with anyone," but he takes you far beyond such guidance to give you a full plan for becoming not just a knowledgeable but an effective evangelist.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Many Catholics revere the Bible without reading it. They find themselves paralyzed, not knowing where to start reading. Fr. Kenneth Baker comes to the rescue. In brief synopses of the 73 books he guides new readers through the threshold and shows them how they can move forward on their own. Inside the Bible will transform almost-readers into avid readers of the sacred text.”
History & Biography
“We live with the aftereffects of twenty centuries of heresies. If this book speaks to us as though it were written yesterday, it is because heresy is a perennial problem. 'All men by nature desire to know', said Aristotle, but many men are incapable of knowing well or of thinking clearly. The result is religious error. To deal with it, we must learn its origin and history. There seldom has been a better teacher than Hilaire Belloc.”
Theology
“This book offers an easy-to-digest, clear introduction to all things papal. From Peter to Francis, from Matthew's Gospel to Revelation, and from the first century to the twenty-first, it shows why the papacy has an indispensable role in salvation history.”
History & Biography
“When I wrote my first book, Catholicism and Fundamentalism, non-Catholic readers found the words of the Church Fathers to be the most convincing parts of my arguments. They demonstrated what Christians believed more than a millennium before Protestantism appeared, and their testimony often proved to be the proximate cause of changes of hearts and minds.”
Theology
“Of Sheed's many books, this one is my favorite, not just because it includes the clearest explanation of the Trinity ever put on paper, but because it proves that only the Catholic view of reality can satisfy our mental hunger.”
Theology
“Frank Sheed never composed an incoherent sentence. He proved so capable an apologist because he was such a clear writer. Through his crystalline words the reader sees the Catholic Faith as a whole and as something not just true but desirable. I return to Sheed again and again. I might think of one or two who were his equal in apologetics. I can think of no one who was his superior.”
