"description":"Blaise Pascal reflected that humanity is obsessed with divertissement, that is, diversions. By embracing noise and pleasure, we avoid thinking about anything that may be associated with aging, dying, or our final end. But what if our determination to avoid these thoughts means that we are consigning ourselves to living an aimless life? Best-selling author Vittorio Messori invites you to explore this and other aspects of Pascal’s Wager in a compelling, conversational way.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn these soul-stirring pages, you will find that death isn’t simply an individual concern but a collective one. Society’s continual advancements in technology and rising political hostilities make the possibility of nuclear apocalypse and other mass extinction events ever more real. Modern culture, however, seems fascinated with death only in entertainment. For death in reality, it relies on euphemisms and escapism rather than direct, honest engagement with the problems of sin, suffering, and grief.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough thought-provoking examples from history, entertainment, psychology, and culture, you will learn ways in which society’s treatment of death is impacting education, careers, mental health, and daily living. You will also discover:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• How death is viewed in light of ideologies from the Enlightenment to Marxism to existentialism\u003cbr\u003e• The connection between radical liberalism and individualism, which lead to a culture of death\u003cbr\u003e• Why the burden of proof lies with those who deny the afterlife\u003cbr\u003e• How the challenge to consider religion is really about human dignity, self-respect, and duty\u003cbr\u003e• How Christian belief is unique from other religions and its denominational differences\u003cbr\u003e• What the Bible says about the afterlife, beginning with the Old Testament\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYou will also learn ways to restore hope and will see how silence can be a gift and why Messori believes that humor is a virtue. In addition, you will see why the Church’s worldview helps to bring meaning and value to every human life, why death is triumphing in modernity, and how you can help turn the tide by choosing life — now and in the world to come.",

No matter his pursuit, he was always haunted by the reality that booking the part, winning the award, or catching the perfect wave (you name it) would never quite satisfy him.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Aching for Greatness: Discover God’s Love in the Restless Search for More, Kalina shares how his restless search for more led him to the realization that God is the only one who can ever truly fulfill the longings in his heart. Kalina didn’t change everything about his life overnight, but he did commit to giving Jesus a real chance, going all in and no longer walking with one foot in and one foot out.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInspired by the early Christians after Pentecost, the men and women who “devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers” (Acts 2:42), Kalina shares how these four spiritual practices became a model for developing intimacy with Jesus:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e.• Learning about faith\u003cbr\u003e• Finding healthy fellowship\u003cbr\u003e• Embracing the sacraments\u003cbr\u003e• Spending time in prayer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChances are, this restless search for more is something you can relate to, something you’ve experienced in your own life. When those empty feelings lead you to ask, “Why do I feel so alone? Why don’t I feel fulfilled?,” Kalina encourages you not to feel ashamed or defeated but to realize that acknowledging how you feel is the first step to a life filled with greater joy, connection, and peace.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSo, what’s your next step? Are you ready to find what you’ve been looking for?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAching for Greatness will inspire you to set out on the adventure that only a deep, personal knowledge of God can offer. With a two-thousand-year-old roadmap to follow and the conviction that nothing aside from an intimate relationship with God will bring lasting peace, you’re sure to discover God’s powerful love.",

"description":"We are living through the greatest catastrophe since the fall of the Roman Empire. Western civilization isn’t dying: it’s already dead. Christendom is no more. What we see around us now isn’t Christian. It’s not even a civilization. It’s a walking corpse.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThat’s the bad news. The good news is that the West can be reborn someday. We know this because it died once before. Who brought it back? The mystics, the martyrs, and the missionaries. Now they must save the West once again.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this prescient work, Michael Warren Davis examines just how bad the situation is and how much worse it’s going to get. He weaves together examples from history and literature to illustrate how societies fell and how various saints helped them rise again. Throughout, he reflects on the transformative power and benefits of persecution and suffering to show how Christians can survive - and indeed flourish - in the new Dark Age that’s descending.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese penetrating pages will help you move from a “Culture War” mindset to one of answering the Great Commission. You will learn how to form intentional Christian communities to ward off spiritual isolation and come to understand what St. Augustine, the chief architect of Christendom’s first renaissance, taught about why God allows the City of Man to fall in the first place. Additionally, you will discover:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• The only weapon in your arsenal (can you guess?)\u003cbr\u003e• What role laughter played in the early Church’s victory\u003cbr\u003e• How to attain xenitia, the first stage of spiritual development\u003cbr\u003e• Methods to grow in union with Christ through meditative prayer\u003cbr\u003e• The fruits of street evangelization and your call to go into the vineyard\u003cbr\u003e• How drawing from Eastern Christianity can help renew our culture again\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbove all, you will find out how you can respond to the crisis of the early twenty-first century with the wisdom of the ages — to testify to your Faith, help restore beauty, and cultivate authentic love in the modern world. For, according to Davis, every Christian has a role to play. All are called to share their faith person-to-person to help rebuild the Church, and once again the tears of mystics, the sweat of missionaries, and the blood of martyrs will become the seed of the Church. Despite the darkness, by imitating their witness, you will find unshakable peace and joy in the face of what is to come.",

The bulk of these talks, however, date from two periods and locations. Saint Maximilian gave the first group of conferences in 1933 during the early days of the \"Garden of the Immaculate\" (Mugenzai no Sono) in Nagasaki, Japan. The second group dates from 1936-37. Saint Maximilian delivered these talks at Niepokalanow as the ominous signs of global conflict grew in intensity. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe conferences are addressed to the friars of these two friaries. In Niepokalanow, the conferences could last up to an hour, although the typical duration was thirty minutes. When he was home, Saint Maximilian often delivered two conferences a day. However, his health would sometimes prevent him from meeting this rigorous schedule. The conferences were quite informal and involved a great deal of question and answer dialogue. Typically, 50-60 friars would attend the conferences. At times, they occurred in the chapel. At other times, Saint Maximilian spoke in a simple room, adorned only with a picture of his beloved Immaculata. Often, he spoke while seated on the floor with the friars around him. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTexts of these talks do not exist. The conferences which follow are transcriptions made by the friars in attendance. The texts bear the signatures of several different friars who acted as recorders. Often, the note-taking friars hid behind another friar so as to avoid notice because, in his humility, Saint Maximilian did not believe his words to be worthy of saving. The texts were then translated from Polish into English, and have been edited for ease of reading.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is a Marytown Press book.",

John Hardon, and Fr. Peter M. J. Stravinskas. Not so. McAfee’s offering makes no attempt, as the others did, to be comprehensive. It aims to be captivating — and it is. It’s an eclectic, idiosyncratic, and delightful compendium of definitions and explanations, with many topics not found in any other Catholic dictionary.” — Karl Keating, Founder, Catholic Answers",
