Constitutions, Decrees, Declarations
The Church's twenty-one ecumenical councils have been crucial to its understanding of its Biblical heritage. They have taken place less frequently in recent centuries, one three since 1517: Trent (1545-1563), Vatican I (1869-1870), and Vatican II (1962-1965).
Their absorption into the day-to-day belief and practice of individual Christians has always taken time. And Vatican II has been no exception. Hence the importance of this Vatican II's sixteen documents, without commentary or additional documentation, and in inclusive language. A new edition of the documents of the 21st ecumenical council, for the 21st century.

One of the great cornerstones in the history of Christian philosophy, The City of God provides an insightful interpretation of the development of modern Western society and the origin of most Western thought. Contrasting earthly and heavenly cities--representing the omnipresent struggle between good and evil--Augustine explores human history in its relation to all eternity. In Thomas Merton's words, "The City of God is the autobiography of the Church written by the most Catholic of her great saints."
This Modern Library Paperback Classics edition is a complete and unabridged version of the Marcus Dods translation. Trade Paperback. 928 pages. Item #42700

The Spirit of Truth in the Church
Nothing but the truth. That's what Jesus promised when he told his apostles that after his death the Spirit of Truth would come upon them. Twenty-one centuries later, we might ask: What happened next? Did the Spirit descend? Did the Spirit stay? Is the Spirit with us today? If so, how does the Spirit guide the Church? Guide individual members of the Church? Guide the teaching authority of the Church? Will the Spirit ever leave the Church?
Father Apostoli, with pastoral sensitivity, helps the reader grasp the truth about the Spirit of Truth who leads the Church and each of us into the freedom won for us by Christ. Trade Paperback. 182 pages. Item #38829

The How-To Book of Catholic Devotions is the only book that not only provides the who, what, where, when, and why of the most time-honored traditions of the Church but also the how. more...Item #24067
