Adeodatus

Fiction

“Michael O’Brien is a superior spiritual storyteller worthy to join the ranks of Flannery O’Connor, Graham Greene, Evelyn Waugh, and C. S. Lewis.”

After Suicide

Counseling, Grief & Mental Health

“This is a ‘must” book. Like no other, it fills a terribly deep need with a terribly deep clarity, charity, and wisdom from the saints. It is without the slightest sentimentality or condescension, yet orthodox and shares the real teaching of the Church. I am impressed by its simplicity, honesty and power, and am very happy to recommend it.”

America on Trial, Expanded Edition

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“This book is a defense of the principles of natural law, morality, and natural religion—i.e., reason and faith—as the foundation of American policy from the beginning and a historical 'big picture' of their classical, medieval, and modern origins. The argument is unanswerable, the documentation massive, and the issue prophetic in import.”

Arise from Darkness

Counseling, Grief & Mental Health

“Just the kind of wise guidance we have come to expect from Father Groeschel. It is clear, simple, compassionate, personal, practical, Christ-centered and full of Gospel quotes that come alive in Groeschel's hands.”

By the Rivers of Babylon

Fiction

“Michael O'Brien is a superior spiritual storyteller worthy to join the ranks of Flannery O'Connor, Graham Greene, Evelyn Waugh, and C. S. Lewis.”

By What Authority

Apologetics

“This is not just another book of Catholic apologetics. It is not only a good think; it's also a good read. Concrete, clear, compelling arguments.”

C. S. Lewis's Dangerous Idea

Apologetics

“According to the standard account, chapter three of C. S. Lewis's Miracles, his argument against naturalism, is a philosophical embarrassment, a beguiling house of cards that collapses at the merest breath of rigorous critique. Victor Reppert, in C. S. Lewis's Dangerous Idea, certainly proves thestandard account wrong. But he does more than that: he deepens and extends Lewis's argument against naturalism and makes an intellectually exciting and persuasive case of his own. Reppert's book is philosophical revisionism at its finest.”

Christianity for Seekers and Skeptics

Apologetics

“This explanation and defense of what C. S. Lewis called ‘mere Christianity’ is irenic, ecumenical, accurate, fair to all sides, reasonable, readable, clear, concrete, and comprehensive. It contains a lifetime of learning—theological, historical, biblical, philosophical, psychological, sociological, and personal. There are far more than one thousand pages’ worth in this less than five hundred–page book.”

Chronicles of Transformation

Arts & Literature

“The Chronicles of Transformation and Michael Ward's Planet Narnia are the two books that stand head and shoulders above all the many other books about Lewis' masterpiece. Both surprise us with unexpected insights and dimensions. And the seven authors of this book do it seven times! Other books about Narnia see and say the obvious, like boats that skim the surface of Lewis' seven seas. But this one is a diving suit that takes the reader down into the depths.”

Hallowed Be This House

Christian Living

“Howard's vision is the quintessential Catholic, sacramental vision. To read this book is to see with the eyes of Christ.”

How I Stayed Catholic at Harvard

Christian Living

“The best way to keep your faith, at any college, is to read this book.”

Into the Deep

History & Biography

“There are events in life that leave you changed forever, right down to the very roots and heart of your being, because they go ‘into the deep.’ Like this book. Reading it is bound to be an event like that in the lives of two classes of readers if they dare to read it with open minds and hearts: those who call themselves Evangelicals and those who call themselves Christian ‘feminists.’ The theology is profoundly Christ-centered, the psychology trustably honest, and the style winsomely alive.”

J.R.R. Tolkien

Arts & Literature

“Richard Purtill is both a clear and commonsensical philosopher and an accomplished fantasy writer. Discovering him is like meeting Strider in the Inn at Bree: we have found a Ranger, a reliable guide through Middle-earth.”

Jesuit at Large

History & Biography

“Paul Mankowski, S.J., is our John the Baptist. He has written the definitive refutations of 'inclusive language' and many other modern myths. These essays are scalpels: sharp, precise, healing. Very reminiscent of the writings of Chesterton, Belloc, Lewis.”

John Paul II to Aristotle and Back Again

Philosophy

“Here is winsome wisdom and uncommon commonsense about good and evil and the meaning of life. All high school seniors and college freshmen should read it. It is a little look at the 'big picture' of the good life, both natural and supernatural, and the perfect 'fit' between these two dimensions. Putting Aristotle and St. John Paul II together is a marriage made in heaven.”

Knowing God

Theology

“This book is vintage Sheed: clear, commonsensical, and convincing. This is the Sheed of the two masterpieces of apologetics Theology and Sanity and Society and Sanity. But this is also a new Sheed: older and wiser, more practical and human--the post-Vatican II Sheed. I mean this in all the good senses, the John Paul II senses: he is sensitive to the dangers of "the good old days": verbalism, "dead orthodoxy," rationalism, deism, what Sheed calls "theometry" instead of theology: an abstract, formal theological geometry that only wants to define terms and win debating points. Instead, this book is a kind of theological midrash, a deepening, a spelunking in the caves of the deepest mysteries with the clear light of honest words--honest with heart as well as head. "It unites dogmatic theology with lived religion. It is precisely the breath of fresh air that Pope John XXIII opened the windows for, and in terms the layman can clearly grasp.”

Letter to the Future

Fiction

“Michael O'Brien is a superior spiritual storyteller worthy to join the ranks of Flannery O'Connor, Graham Greene, Evelyn Waugh, and C. S. Lewis.”

Love, the Ultimate Apologetic

Apologetics

“A simple, clear and effective argument for Christianity as the only worldview that justifies the thing we all, deep down, know is life's highest meaning and value: charity, unselfish love. Simple but irresistible.”

Models of Heaven

Theology

“This book assembles and organizes an impressive treasure trove of wisdom both old and new. It is admirably clear, coherent, and comprehensive. I hope this book will help to spark a renewed interest in a topic whose neglect has been indefensible.”
