Book Description
The Catholic "thing" - the concrete historical reality of Catholicism as a presence in human history - is the richest cultural tradition in the world. It values both faith and reason, and therefore has a great deal to say about politics and economics, war and peace, manners and morals, children and families, careers and vocations, and many other perennial and contemporary questions. In addition, it has inspired some of the greatest art, music, and architecture, while offering unparalleled human solidarity to tens of millions through hospitals, soup kitchens, schools, universities, and relief services. This volume brings together some of the very best commentary on a wide range of recent events and controversies by some of the very best Catholic writers in the English language: Ralph McInerny, Michael Novak, Fr. James V. Schall, Hadley Arkes, Robert Royal, Anthony Esolen, Brad Miner, George Marlin, David Warren, Austin Ruse, Francis Beckwith, and many others. Their contributions cover large Catholic subjects such as philosophy and theology, liturgy and Church dogma, postmodern culture, the Church and modern politics, literature, and music. But they also look into specific contemporary problems such as religious liberty, the role of Catholic officials in public life, growing moral hazards in bio-medical advances, and such like. The Catholic Thing is a virtual encyclopedia of Catholic thought about modern life.

Book Description
Just imagine if the heavenly Father sent his Son, Jesus Christ, to walk and talk to us in the times we live in presently. Imagine if he was born in the greatest nation on earth, the United States of America. It is the place where citizens have the freedom to choose whatever they want or need. Yet many Americans choose not to want or need Jesus. What if Jesus in the flesh confronted the people of God’s country? This story will bring him back to life as Son of God and Son of man once more. People will see him with their own eyes, hear him with their own ears, and some will even touch him with their own hands. Would unbelievers change their minds and hearts and know that he really does exist? Probably not, many did not believe two thousand years ago even though they saw, heard, and touched him then. The sands of time have separated his beloved from him. Some think that Jesus is just a myth, yet they believe that Bigfoot, the Abominable Snowman, and the Loch Ness Monster are factual. They say they have seen the creatures but have no genuine evidence they are real. Since the beginning of his story, history has proven that Jesus Christ is existent, and this story will confirm it once more. Jesus is as alive today as ever and so is his message and his mission; it will never change. Obviously, the world where Jesus began his ministry is completely different than the world today. So much has transformed over the past two millennia. The first century gave us the New Testament, the twenty-first century gave us new science, new technology, new laws, and even new morals. The way we live and the way we die is completely different than it was then. There are thousands of Christian churches and thousands of more churches of other religions that have erupted. Though the world has changed over time, Jesus has not. His teachings will remain the same yesterday, today, and forevermore. How would mankind treat him if he walked the earth once more? Would they treat him the same as they did then? Would his message and mission be altered to accommodate the times? Does evil continue to prevail on earth? So many unanswered questions. You can choose to watch or walk with him in this “Greatest Story Ever Told Once More” and find answers to these and the previous questions. This story will reveal many unexpectant answers to a lifetime of questions. In your mind’s eye, you will see Jesus born then grow from a child into adulthood. You will go on a journey with him while he attempts to unite unbelieving hearts and minds with his in today’s modern society. You will see how he confronts foes and friends, and the many issues that have risen since he has risen. This can be done only if he were to return to us once again. This story is one of a thousand scenarios, it is inspired by one’s imagination but has been sprinkled with words from the Holy Bible that are not. So you may need a Holy Bible by your side to help enhance some of the messages given, but it is not necessary. In any case, read on, and I think you will be surprised by the events that are about to unfold. You will experience truth combined with fantasy and enjoy a fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. We buckle up and carnival ride of life daily, but this is the big one, so pull the straps tight and prepare for a ride on the emotional rollercoaster. Hopefully, this story will be just as exciting!

Book Description
You'll Learn from Jacob, Who Moved from Manipulation to Trust in God. Jacob is a troubling character in the Old Testament. He is conniving and he is spiritual too. He has moments of strong faith as well as of fear. His family is sometimes in disarray, and yet at the end he is the one who sets it straight. Jacob the Patriarch is a bit too much like us -- with very human strengths and weaknesses, but a man with a striving for spiritual things. From this imperfect man we learn important lessons of faith. especially, about God's grace. The events described in Jacob's story comprise most of Genesis chapters 25-49. If you haven't read the Old Testament much, you'll be pleased to find that God will speak to you here -- loud and clear. Each of the seven detailed lessons include probing discussion questions and can be used for personal enrichment, by small groups and classes, and by teachers and preachers.
