Just as all organisms are governed by biological laws, human beings also have an ingrained moral compass-laws that direct their behavior in a certain way. According to Catholic Tradition, the virtues operate as central principles behind our notion of moral goodness.
Here is a unique and insightful book that examines the virtues and offers them as a blueprint that demonstrates how to embrace the seven key virtues of faith, hope and love and the cardinal virtues of prudence, justice, fortitude, and temperance. He shows you how these traits are no mere abstractions; they reflect an understanding of human nature with its capacity for both good and evil.
Bolstered by contemporary applications and real-life examples, The Catholic Virtues shows how the seven virtues are interconnected and are, quite simply, the keys to becoming more Christ-like.

At the heart of the Christian faith is the mystery of the Incarnation. God manifesting his love for us by becoming man. In this book, which he had been working on in the months before his death, Cardinal Basil Hume reflects on the Incarnation & its meaning for our lives & for society. He helps us to see that it is this event that should be at the center of our new millennium, and he encourages us to fix our eyes on Christ, the light of the world.
Divided into 3 parts the book covers subjects such as: the contemporary search for meaning, rediscovering the transcendent, prayer, saints for our time, peace, human love, and relationships, the future of society, and preparation for death.
A book of deep simplicity and prayerfulness, it will speak to those within the Church as well as those on the margins of faith. 166 pages. Trade Paperback.

Interviews with an Absolutist
No issue is more fateful for civilization than moral relativism. History knows not one example of a successful society which repudiated moral absolutes. Yet most attacks on relativism have been either pragmatic (looking at its social consequences) or exhorting (preaching rather than proving), and philosophers' arguments against it have been specialized, technical, and scholarly.
In his typical unique writing style, Peter Kreeft lets an attractive, honest, and funny relativist interview a "Muslim fundamentalist" absolutist so as not to stack the dice personally for absolutism. more...

Making sense of human suffering is a challenge in every age, and many a person confronted with man's inhumanity to his fellow man has lost his faith in a good God. The Holocaust, in particular, because of the scope of its ruthlessness, has raised the question for modern man:

Now Professor William E. May fearlessly tackles these hot-topic issues, examining them in light of papal encyclicals, statements from the U.S. Bishops, and probing analyses from leading orthodox theologians. 272 pages. Trade Paperback.

Israel, the Church and the World
In Many Religions, One Covenant, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger spans the deep divides in modern Catholic scholarship to present a compelling biblical theology, modern in its concerns yet classical in its breadth. It is his classical mastery, his resourcement, that enables the Cardinal to build a bridge.
Cardinal Ratzinger seeks to deepen our understanding of the Bible's most fundamental principle. The covenant defines religion for Christians and Jews. We cannot discern God's design or his will if we do not meditate upon his covenant.
The covenant, then, is the principle that unites the New Testament with the Old, the Scriptures with Tradition, and each of the various branches of theology with all the others. more...

The Spirit of Childhood and the End of the Age
In the pre-Christian world, children were slain on pagan altars, and now, in the post-Christian world of the affluent West, children are again the object of adult hostility. In the U.S.A. the abuse of children has been called a "national mergency", while in almost every country on earth the killing of children still unborn has become an ideology of "choice".
In this challenging book, John Saward examines the work of several Roman Catholic writers, including St. Therese of Lisieux, G. K. Chesterton, Charles Peguy, Georges Bernanos and Hans Urs von Balthasar who rose up in defense and celebration of childhood. This is a ground-breaking work in the theology of childhood and the analysis of modernity. more...
