Simone Campbell

Dorothy Day for Armchair Theologians

History & Biography

“In our age of hyperincome inequality and the attempt of the few to control our nation’s politics, it is balm to the spirit to read of Dorothy Day and her struggles in the first half of the twentieth century. Faith in action requires a commitment to the gospel measure of putting those who struggle in poverty at the center of our decision making. Faith, hope, and joy are at the heart of this commitment and at the heart of this book.”

Journals of Brother Roger of Taizé, Volume 2

History & Biography

“This second volume of Brother Roger’s journal reflects the evolution of mission ‘on the Hill’ of Taizé and the growth of concern for youth. It can nourish all of us in the daily searching for faith and fullness. As Brother Roger wrote in his own turbulent times as he reflected on faith in our lives: ‘We have nothing to fear.’”

Silence Can Kill

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“In Silence Can Kill, the author challenges Christians to demand that there be no hungry people in our world. Through the window of Bread for the World, Simon sets out what is needed for food justice and why we resist. We have the ability to feed a hungry world, but we lack the will. Readers will come away challenged and (I hope) engaged in the campaign to speak up and save our neighbors and our planet.”

The Genius of Justice

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“In my Catholic tradition we might call this book a litany! A litany of contemporary people whose passion is faith-rooted justice seeking! What glorious nourishment for these challenging times. Let us walk this path together seeking justice and joy.”

Troubling the Water

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Troubling the Water challenges us to find ways for everyone to belong across differences. This is a clear-eyed challenge to face into the real work of bridging divides and finding a way beyond 'us' and 'them.' Acknowledging where we have power and privilege and where we are persecuted and prevented allows us to create the path to the common good that is inclusive of all. Ben McBride is an engaging storyteller and challenges us to move forward together where all of us are agents of change and welcome.”
