View full detailsWinner of a third-place award in the front cover artwork category from the Catholic Media Association. When a child dies, a father’s grief is often overlooked or misunderstood. Cultural expectations, a man’s traditional role in the family, and a lack of emotional support can push his pain into the background. The Grief of Dads was written by Catholic fathers who have experienced this loss at every stage and circumstance, offering companionship, spiritual guidance, and honest support for men w...
View full detailsFor Use by the Laity This prayerbook is designated for use by the laity in waging spiritual warfare from the public domain and the Church's treasury. A great many of the prayers in this book are sadly nowhere else to be found, not even in the depths of the internet. In addition to prayers of deliverance, there are also sections on prayers of devotion, and prayers of healing, which both contain some incredibly powerful prayers for bringing down abundant graces from God. Deliverance Prayers - F...
View full detailsSt. Alphonsus Liguori and other saints have always held that each priest is required to do exorcisms and deliverance depending on his state in life. This does not necessarily mean that he will do solemn exorcisms as directed by his bishop but it does mean that, as the saint says, in every parish and diocese there are people who are under attack from the fallen angels who need the assistance of the priest to whom their care and protection has been entrusted. In His wisdom, Christ, in conferrin...

View full detailsIn The Binding Force of Tradition, Fr. Ripperger provides a study of the object and nature of Sacred Tradition and the moral requirement of Catholics to accept the Sacred tradition. Sacred tradition and the Magisterium are surprisingly complex albeit important topics, especially when dealing with the sensus fidelium and the ordinary Magisterium. Fr. Ripperger answers several vital questions including: "Since normally the rule of faith is the teaching of tradition and Scripture as taught by t...
View full detailsIn Magisterial Authority, Fr. Ripperger answers many common questions that the faithful might have, including: When is the pope infallible? What are the criteria for papal infallibility and how do we determine if a papal pronouncement meets those criteria? What does the Church have to do to finally get on the right track? What were some popes who committed error while being pope? Does papal infallibility apply to the canonization of saints? When are bishops infallible? How does all of this a...
View full detailsA Catholic Perspective on American History History is the key to understanding men-whether as nations, families, or individuals. For Catholics, history has an even higher purpose beside. For them, history is the unfolding of God's Will in time, and the attempts of men either to conform themselves to or to resist that Will. But American Catholic historians have generally refrained from exploring their own national history with these principles, preferring instead to adopt the analysis of their...
View full detailsFor 240 years, most Americans have identified our country with its government as the embodiment of “Freedom” and the nation itself. Take away the Constitution, Congress, and presidential elections, and not only liberty but the United States themselves would vanish. Or would they? We have a government that imposes social change from above at breakneck speed, while each presidential election seems to offer even more pathetic choices than the one before. Many are scratching their heads and wonde...
View full detailsMost books about the Popes have either tried to whitewash every sin any Pope has committed, or else have made them all out to be all out to be anti-Christs. On this emotional topic, writers seem to have left very little middle ground. But the truth is that there have obviously been good and obviously evil Popes, controversial Popes and forgotten Popes. In this book, they will all have their day in court. One by one, each Pope will be profiled, and their rich history, with all its pageantry, i...
View full detailsA Holy Emperor and His Legacy October 3, 2004 saw what appeared to many to be a very strange thing: Emperor-King Charles of Austria-Hungary, last Habsburg to rule in Central Europe and wartime foe of the United States, was raised to the altars of the Church as a Blessed by St. John Paul II. But odd as this appeared, the real story of the “Peace Emperor” and his just as remarkable wife reads like a combination of a suspense thriller, Greek tragedy, and hagiography. The inheritor of a tradition...

A collection of Flannery O’Connor’s stories sat on my brother’s bookshelf in the ’70s, but I don’t recall looking into it. Already then I nursed a sullen and narrow-eyed resentment of any writer remotely near me in age, sex, or...
