Christian Women Mystics
Discover the strength, wisdom, and joyful faith of Christianity's legendary women - the medieval mystics. Their honesty and deep love for God will encourage and empower you every day of the year.
This book of daily readings will help you create quiet space for focusing on God's love in the midst of a busy life. As you spend time with these great women, you will discover an astonishing view of a God who is tender, nurturing, forgiving, and as close as breath.
"In these pages, the images of the spiritual life are the erotic ones of the feminine experience. They are the stuff of very physically-present women who loved their Lord with a ferocity and passion that could be reported only in those experiences of the flesh."

Females in a Patriarchal Society
There's no way to get around the fact that, in the Bible, women played a subservient role in what can only be described as a patriarchal society. And yet what an important role that was given the fact that, if nothing else, they were the mothers of those dominant men of whom we read so much in the sacred pages.
Some thirty-nine of the most prominent women from the Old and New Testament are profiled in these short stories. Some are heroes, others are villains; some are saints, others are public sinners. There are touching stories of loving relationships that move the heart and there are tales that point out the vicioius and vindictive nature of other relationships. more...Item # 50846

"Dear brothers and sisters, history records almost exclusively the accomplishments of men, when in fact much of it is due to the determined, unrelenting, and charitable action of women." - Pope Benedict XVI
From Scripture through today, women have always played a unique and critical role in Church history. In his weekly addresses, Pope Benedict XVI expertly and thoughtfully explores the life stories of seventeen such holy women.
From St. Hildegard of Bingen to St. Catherine of Siena to St. Therese of Lisieux, and many more in between, each one brings a fresh experience and example of faith that is still relevant today. These models of prayer, faith, and action will help you gain a fuller understanding of Church history as well as personal faith. more...Item # 18157

Our Calling as Catholic Women
In her book Rooted in Love Donna-Marie Cooper O’Boyle, bestselling author and popular EWTN television and radio personality, accompanies Catholic women through the ups and downs of their lives, encouraging them to be reflections of Christ in all things.
With warmth and candor, Cooper O’Boyle demonstrates why she is so beloved by her readers, viewers, and listeners.
Through sometimes-unexpected stories from her own journey, she shows that being a faith-filled Catholic woman does not mean being perfect. Rather, in the midst of parenting difficulties, marital problems, economic hardships, and sickness--among other challenges -- one finds strength in Christ and in the wisdom and community of the Church. more...Item # 20663

From a Seraphic Single
Being single is tough. Parents and friends bombard you with questions about when you're going to (finally!) get married and worry that not being "in a relationship" will leave you depressed and unfulfilled.
This humorous narrative by Dorothy Cummings reveals the thoughts, advice, and fractured social life of a serious young Catholic woman who -no matter what- is determined to remain true to the Church's moral teachings.
Witty and accessible, it includes such sections as "No Sex in the City" "Men Are the Caffeine in the Cappuccino of Life" and, "Live Alone and Like It." Set in the United States, Canada, and Europe, this book is an intelligent take on the contemporary dating scene that will leave women of faith shouting, "Hallelujah! more...Item # 48051
