Church of the Kevin, TheA short book combining comic material from the author's newsletter for his nationally performed comedy murder mysteries with somewhat more serious essays and some satirical poems. "THE BOOK OF THE KEVIN (or whatever it's called) is a literary revolution. Everyone should read this book. I intend to read it myself. That's how strongly I feel about it." ----Dale Ahlquist, president and co-founder of the American Chesterton Society and the author of many books on GKC.
Common Sense 101Chesterton wrote a hundred books on a variety of themes, thousands of essays for London newspapers, penned epic poetry, delighted in detective fiction, drew illustrations, and made everyone laugh by his keen humor. Everyone who knew Chesterton loved him, even those he debated with.  “Ahlquist proves that Chesteron’s commentaries and views on the continuing dehumanization of man, the so-called social sciences, the totalitarian ideologies and the intellectual fashions of his day continue to be relevant in our own age.”   —George J. Marlin,
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.
Fearing the StigmataIn Fearing the Stigmata, twenty-something Matt Weber—a Harvard graduate, television producer, and certified rosary-bead carrier—employs his sharp wit, earnest candor, and gift for great storytelling to illustrate for young adult Catholics both the real challenges and the immense joys of publicly living out the Catholic faith.
Pilgrim's Progress, The“Subtle, it’s not. The Pilgrim’s Progress is a frank depiction of the Christian life. Written by an imprisoned pastor almost 350 years ago, it still captures attention with its vivid depictions of the journey of an ordinary Christian. . .”  The Pilgrim’s Progress is arguably the most-read book in the English language after the Bible. 
Please Don’t Drink the Holy Water
Homeschooling her kids has left Susie wise beyond her years: she’s learned why pi is square instead of round, and searched out the best places to buy a cow’s eyeball for the science fair. “In fact,” she says, “Socrates had it easy. His students never interrupted him to go to the bathroom or ask when lunch was."  Come along for a ride in Susie’s full-size van as she faces the trials of Family Rosary and tangles with snide education experts, gruff confessors, and relatives who tell her it’s time to wake up and join the “real world.”
Powers' Nostalgic Trilogy SetComplete set of three humorously nostalgic novels by the late John R. Powers, the second and most famous of which (Do Black Patent Leather Shoes Really Reflect Up?) inspired a classic musical theatre production that continues to delight audiences nationwide.
Ten Ways to Destroy the Imagination of Your Child
Play dates, soccer practice, day care, political correctness, drudgery without facts, television, video games, constant supervision, endless distractions: these and other insidious trends in child rearing and education are now the hallmarks of childhood. As author Anthony Esolen demonstrates in this elegantly written, often wickedly funny book, almost everything we are doing to children now constricts their imaginations, usually to serve the ulterior motives of the constrictors.
The Last Catholic in AmericaFirst in John Powers' trilogy of novels, this classic coming of age tale about growing up in South-side Chicago in the 1950's Catholic subculture is a wonderful work of Catholic nostalgia, written with a pitch-perfect balance between the innocence of the child and the bittersweet knowledge of the adult.
The Loser Letters
"Through letters of advice from A.F. Christian, an enthusiastic convert to the cause of the new atheists, Mary Eberstadt deftly exposes the flaws in their views.  Using the lingo of pop culture to hilarious effect, she offers a scathing satire of their question-begging arguments and shows with great wit that they are not just wrongheaded but downright laughable. Yet this spirited defense of Christian faith is also a poignant commentary on what it means to be human."
The Screwtape LettersAudiobook on cd/dvd -- The style and unique dark humor of The Screwtape Letters are retained in this full-cast Radio Theatre dramatization, as is the original setting of London during World War II. The story is carried by the senior demon Screwtape played magnificently by award-winning actor Andy Serkis

The Unoriginal Sinner and the Ice-Cream GodLast in John Powers' trilogy of nostalgic Catholic novels, this tale introduces ambitious Tim Conroy's bittersweet struggles to make sense of God, sex, career, and family in the midst of an insincere world.
The Well and the ShallowsIn this book, one of his last and finest collections of essays on a variety of cultural, social and moral issues that seem even more urgent today, Chesterton's trademark wit and perceptive analysis of the absurdities and excesses of modern life are present but with a more serious tone than usual as he fiercely defends the Church (the "Well") and Christian teachings as the source of wisdom, reason, compassion and strength to face all the dangers and evils in modern times (the "Shallows").
