Why democracy needs Christianity.
Some Americans claim we should exclude Christian values from the public square. On the contrary, argues philosopher Jacques Maritain, good Christians make good citizens.They live by gospel values: honesty, integrity, and compassion. They obey the law. They resist the selfishness that unbelief and materialism breed. And they subordinate their own interests to the common good.
No wonder, says Maritain, that American democracy -- which arose from a Christian people -- has served so well and lasted so long.
Here Maritain shows that in a society unleavened by religious ideals, an enduring democracy can never take root. And once a religious people abandons its faith, even the greatest democracy must wither and die. more...

What Every Catholic Can Do to Transform the World
Carl Anderson, Supreme Knight of the Knights of Columbus, surveys the exciting and history-changing ideas of Pope John Paul II in A Civilization of Love. By popularizing not only John Paul's vision but also that of his successor, Benedict XVI, Anderson hopes to inspire Christians to work toward creating a civilization of love. In such a civilization every person is a child of God. We are all intrinsically valuable. The battle today is between the culture of death (where people are judged by their social or economic value) and the culture of life. Anderson pushes aside religious differences in order to spread a message of hope to those who are weary of the constant turmoil of modern society. more...

Celibacy is one of God's greatest gifts to the world...and also one of the most misunderstood.

Reflections on the Priesthood and the Renewal of the Church
Addressing the needs of the faithful necessitates addressing the needs of those who bring Christ to us in a special way - priests, religious and consecreated persons.

"In seeking remedies for the trials and scandals that plague the Church in the world, the lessons contained in this book should be placed in the hands of every bishop and major religious superior. more...

How the Party I Loved Became the Enemy of My Religion
When I told my friend that our new book is called Can a Catholic Be a Democrat?, he shot back, "Can a Catholic be a Republican?"
That's a good question, since these days both parties endorse policies or engage in activities that contradict some or many Catholic teachings about abortion, poverty, immigration, war and peace, or other issues of life and justice.
But that's not always been the case.
Indeed, when author David Carlin was a young man, it was scandalous for a good Catholic to be anything but a good Democrat. In the pews, pubs, and union halls of America's cities, millions of poor European immigrants and their children pledged allegiance to the Church of Rome and the party of FDR. more...

Why Young Adults are Embracing Christian Orthodoxy
From the publisher: Saving sex for marriage. Attending the Latin Mass. Witnessing to others about Christ. Baby boomers largely rejected these trappings of traditional Christianity-so why are their children embracing them with such fervor? Author Colleen Carroll taps into the restless hearts of America's Gen-X believers, revealing their deep attraction to tradition, longing for truth, and determination to change the world. As Carroll writes, "The grassroots movement they have started bears watching because it has thrived in the most unlikely places, captured the hearts of the most unlikely people, and aims to effect the most unlikely of outcomes: revitalization of American Christianity and culture. more...

In this book, Jeff Cavins explores the reasons why many Catholics don't seem to fully appreciate the unparalleled gifts of the Holy Eucharist, and why some have even left the Church for evangelical Christianity. He responds to the most commonly-heard complaint of these former Catholics that they simply were not being "fed" by their Church and that they longed for a more personal relationship with Christ.
After presenting the story of his own return to the Church, Cavins builds a case for the unique character of the Catholic Church as the true Church of Christ. Using the sixth chapter of John's gospel as a foundation, Jeff eloquently shows the biblical basis of the Catholic belief in the Eucharist.
