A Grief Unveiled: Fifteen Years LaterGregory Floyd's autobiographical journey through grief after the tragic death of his youngest son recounts the full impact of such a loss on a Christian family. In this thoroughly updated and expanded edition, Floyd more than ever before allows the reader into his heart as he grapples with the interior emotions that question the goodness of God in the midst of unbearable grief.
A Pilgrim's Journey:The Autobiography of St. Ignatius of LoyolaIgnatius' autobiography spans eighteen very important years of this saint's 65-year life…from his wounding at Pamplona (1521) through his conversion, his university studies and his journey to Rome in order to place his followers and himself at the disposal of the Pope. These critical years reveal an incredible transformation and spiritual growth ...  In addition to providing a really splendid translation of the saint's original text, Father Tylenda has included an informative commentary which enables the modern reader to grasp various allusions in the text and thus gain a better view of this saintly soul.
A Song For NagasakiOn August 9, 1945, an American B-29 dropped an atomic bomb on Nagasaki, Japan, killing tens of thousands of people in the blink of an eye, while fatally injuring and poisoning thousands more. Among the survivors was Takashi Nagai, a pioneer in radiology research and a convert to the Catholic Faith.
America's Forgotten Founders

For the first time ever, top scholars have ranked the most neglected contributors to the American experiment. This unique book profiles the top ten “forgotten Founders,” presenting engaging short biographies, handy lists of their major accomplishments, and revealing quotations. Here you’ll learn about:

  • The Scottish-born Revolutionary (#1) who played a crucial role in drafting the Constitution . . . before spending his final days hiding from creditors
  • The peg-legged patriot (#3) who penned the words “We the People . . .”
  • The astonishingly accomplished Founder (#4) who helped end the Revolutionary War, ratify the Constitution, and stabilize the early Republic
  • The le
BakhitaBased on Bakhita's autobiography, which she dictated to a Canossian sister in obedience to her superior, the canonization files and many other sources, Zanini records the life, virtues and miracles of this daughter of Africa who has become a sister to the whole world.
Be A Man!
A must-read for all men who are serious about strengthening their relationship with God, this exceptional book speaks clearly and directly, challenging men to live their faith with courage and conviction. With the unique blend of humor, passion, and frankness that has become his trademark style, Fr. Larry Richards explores how a Christ-centered male spirituality fosters growth in holiness, and inspires men to become loving servants of their wives, their families, and the Church as a whole. 
Blessed John Henry Newman
John Henry Newman's prophetic voice continues to speak far beyond the confines of 19th-century England. Almost every issue of significance for the Church today is enlightened by reference to his spirit, life and thought.  The relationship of these three elements, the spiritual, the moral and the intellectual, is at the heart of Fr. Keith Beaumont's book, the official biography commissioned for the beatification.
Born Fundamentalist, Born Again CatholicIn this book written as an explanation to his fundamentalist and evangelical friends and family, David Currie presents a very lucid, systematic and intelligible account of the reasons for his conversion to the ancient Church that Christ founded. He gives a detailed discussion of the important theological and doctrinal beliefs Catholic and evangelicals hold in common, as well as the key doctrines that separate us, particularly the Eucharist, the Pope, and Mary.
Catherine of SienaCritically acclaimed as one of the best biographies of this well known, and amazing fourteenth-century saint.  Known for her historical fiction, which won her the Nobel Prize for literature in 1928, Undset based this factual work on primary sources, her own experiences living in Italy, and her profound understanding of the human heart.
Confessions of an Ex-FeministThis absorbing and poignant book traces the author's passage from the heart of the Catholic Church to the epicenter of the sexual revolution and back again. With candor, humor and a knack for storytelling, Murray reveals the mysterious ways God worked in her soul.  
Diary of St. Maria Faustina KowalskaThe diary of this relatively uneducated Polish nun captures the extraordinary visitations and revelations that released a potent, enlightening, and spiritually refined formulation of Divine Mercy into the world.  Generously illustrated with over 20 pages of photos from the history of the Divine Mercy movement, this is a book for every Catholic’s library; one that many will want to keep next to their Bible for constant insight and inspiration.
Do Black Patent Leather Shoes Really Reflect Up?Second in John Powers' trilogy of novels, this famous comic tour de force about growing up in the 1960's Catholic subculture was adapted into a screenplay and hit musical that continues to delight theatre-goers across the country.
Edith SteinA powerful and moving story of the remarkable Jewish woman who converted to Catholicism, became a nun, achieved remarkable success in the male-dominated world of German philosophy, and was sent to a Nazi death camp when she refused to deny her Jewish heritage.
Edith Stein and Companions
On the same summer day in 1942, hundreds of other Catholic Jews were arrested in Holland by the occupying Nazis. One hundred thirteen of those taken into custody, several of them priests and nuns, perished at Auschwitz and other concentration camps in retaliation for the anti-Nazi pastoral letter written by the Dutch Catholic bishops.  Through extensive research in both original and secondary sources, Fr. Paul Hamans compiled these martyrs’ biographies, several of them detailed and accompanied by photographs.
Edmund CampionBiography of St. Edmund Campion, the Elizabethan poet, scholar and gentleman who became the haunted, trapped and murdered priest -- “a simple, perfectly true story of heroism and holiness.”
Eliot and His AgeIn this literary biography Kirk, while revealing the balance and subtlety of Eliot's political and cultural ideas and tracing these to their true roots, elaborates a significant theory of literary meaning in general, showing how great literary works awaken our intuitive reason, giving us profound visions of truth that transcend logical processes.
Finding Confidence in Times of Trial
Pope Benedict XVI recently declared that he would name St. John of Avila the 34th "Doctor of the Universal Church."  And yet, most Catholics have never heard of him!  To help Catholics come to know this newest Doctor of the Church, Sophia Institute Press has just released a collection of St. John’s finest letters. 
Flunking Sainthood ...This wry memoir tackles twelve different spiritual practices in a quest to become more saintly, including fasting, fixed-hour prayer, the Jesus Prayer, gratitude, Sabbath-keeping, and generosity. Although Reiss begins with great plans for success ("Really, how hard could that be?" she asks blithely at the start of her saint-making year), she finds to her growing humiliation that she is failing - not just at some of the practices, but at every single one. What emerges is a funny yet vulnerable story of the quest for spiritual perfection and the reality of spiritual failure, which turns out to be a valuable practice in and of itself.
Forget Not Love"Frossard really captures the life and love of Saint Maximilian. Here was a true saint—aglow with grace yet tough as nails—just like we need today. Read this and prepare to rekindle a holy passion for the divine grace to live the daily grind." 
FrancisThis complete biography offers the keys to understanding the man who was a surprise choice, even a kind of revolutionary choice, for pope. It is the story of the humble pastor of one of the world's largest archdioceses; a cardinal who takes the bus, talks with common folk, and lives simply. It is the story of why the cardinal electors of the Catholic Church set aside political and diplomatic calculations to elect a pope to lead the renewal and purification of the worldwide Church of our time.
