Ich bin katholisch. In meiner Kindheit war das eine Selbstverständlichkeit. Heute muss ich mich dafür rechtfertigen, ja manchmal komme ich mir vor wie ein Tier, das im Zoo angegafft wird: Wie kann man im 21. Jahrhundert an Gott glauben? Und wie kann man immer noch in der Kirche sein – nach allem, was ans Licht gekommen ist? Es ist tatsächlich so, dass ich in meinem Viertel (gentrifiziert), meiner Branche (Medien) und meinem Job (linksliberale Zeitung) von Menschen umringt bin, die, wenn es um den Glauben geht, oft nur noch an Missbrauch und Vertuschung denken.

At last, the Secret of LaSalette in a scrutinized English translation! This 1846 prophecy has been capturing recent attention in the media because of current events. But how to resolve all the confusion and skewed versions?

But what of the original hand-written accounts, cherished by Pope Pius IX?

The perfect Catholic Lent book! Catholics swarm to their local parish on a particular day every year to renew the annual tradition of getting ashes smeared on their heads and hearing the words, “you are dust, and to dust you shall return”. More than a cult-esque kickoff party to a 40-day self-improvement challenge, these Ash Wednesday words are actually an invitation to… death. By weaving through the intricately woven tapestry of the bible, we find the season of Lent in the Garden of Eden, in the flood and the desert, in the Sermon on the Mount, and the Mount of Calvary.

This radical book examines the historical formation of Catholic theology from the perspective of the spiritual abuse of women.

Bestselling author Kevin DeYoung explores the history, meaning, and importance of the Nicene Creed.

“Lourdes”, substantivo tão comum em nossos dias, mas que até o século XIX era desconhecido da maioria dos mortais.

"Officially" the Vatican has no espionage service; but does no one carry out intelligence operations on its behalf? During the Second World War and Cold War, Rome was teeming with spies. A band of undercover monsignors and priests hunted for Vatican "moles," led clandestine diplomacy, investigated assassinations of priests and other scandals threatening the Church, and conducted high-risk missions behind the Iron Curtain.

Are you missing half the story about the last days? Virtually all attention these days is focused on the coming Antichrist—but he is only half the story. Many people are amazed to discover in Revelation 17 that there is also another mysterious character at the heart of prophecy—a woman who rides the beast. Who is this woman? Tradition says she is connected with the church of Rome. But isn’t such a view outdated? After all, today’s Vatican is eager to join hands with Protestants worldwide. “The Catholic church has changed” is what we hear.

Es innegable que el sacerdocio está en crisis. Los altares han sido abandonados y la mayoría de los hombres han abdicado su autoridad sacerdotal, tanto en el hogar como en la iglesia. Eso afecta gravemente nuestra sociedad, porque no hay entendimiento del llamado ni la función sacerdotal. El sacerdote, por definición, es quien representa Dios ante la gente, pero también es el representa a la gente ante Dios.

We are told that science and religion are wholly incompatible and that those of us who profess faith in God are unwilling to bend our wills to the truth. In this highly gratifying book, scientist Dr. Gerard Verschuuren flips this assertion around, showing time and time again how it is not the Christians, but rather the scientists, who are unwilling to incline their wills to the truth when it presents itself. Dr. Verschuuren helps us to recognize science’s limited scope, how it is restricted to what can be dissected, measured, and counted. It is not the only pathway to knowledge.

First published fifty years ago, How to Raise Good Catholic Children is a rare treat for today's parents: a wise and listenable book on child care that derives its wisdom from the Catholic home rather than from psychologists. Author Mary Reed Newland here draws on her own experiences as the mother of seven to show how the classic Christian principles of sanctity can be translated into terms easily applied to children — even to the very young. Because it's rooted in experience, not in theory, nothing that Mrs. Newland suggests is impossible or extraordinary.
