"Thomas More - A Portrait of Courage" |
Gerard B. Wegerner |
$25.50 (paperback) |
$17.35 |
"One of history's most admired figures, Thomas More stands as a model of courage, integrity, fortitude, and other virtues. As a highly successful lawyer, diplomat, and father of a large family, he sacrificed everything that the world holds dear for what his conscience dictated was a principle that could not be sacrificed. The Catholic Church recognized his heroic virtue and holiness by making him a saint along with Bishop John Fisher on the 400th anniversary of their martyrdoms in 1935. This new biography details the hidden spiritual life of More. What motivated his spiritual struggle? How did his writings open a window into his inner life?"

William Bush |

"At the height of the French Revolution's 'Great Terror', a community of sixteen Carmelite nuns from Compeigne offered their lives to restore peace to the church and to France; ten days after their deaths by guillotine, Robespierre fell and the next day when he was executed on the same scaffold, the Reign of Terror effectively ended. Had God thus accepted and used their generous self-gift? " (from the Institute of Carmelite Studies catalogue) 244 pages Published in 1999 by Institute of Carmelite Studies. |

"Triumph - The Power and the Glory of the Catholic Church" |
H. W. Crocker ll |
$38.95 (Hardcover) |
$26.50 |
"For 200 years, Catholicism - the largest religion in the world and in the United States - has shaped global history on a scale unequaled by any other institution. But until now, Catholics interested in their faith have been hard-pressed to find an accessible, affirmative, and exciting history of the Church. Triumph is that history. Inside, you'll discover the spectacular story of the Church from Biblical times and the early days of St. Peter - the first pope - to the twilight years of John Paul ll. It is a sweeping drama of Roman legions, great crusades, epic battles, toppled empires, heroic saints, and enduring faith. And there are stormy controversies: Dark Age skullduggery, the Inquisition, the Renaissance popes, the Reformation, the Church's refusal to accept sexual liberation, and contemporary allegations like those made in Hitler's Pope and Papal Sin."
