    We live in a world that has become secularized, marked by ideology and partisanship. In such a world, how are we supposed to know what is right and wrong? As Christians, how are we supposed to approach the social issues of our day? With conflicting voices surrounding us, how can we hear and know the voice of Jesus Christ and receive His teachings? 
    As Christians, we seek to live the way of the Lord Jesus, but that’s easier said than done. We want to demonstrate the Lord’s love and kindness to all men and women, but we’re faced with issues that cause us to discern what that looks like and how it’s virtuously expressed. We want to do what is right and good, but trying to determine right and wrong can at times be confusing and unsettling. 
    The teaching authority of the Church is here to help. Appointed by Jesus Christ, our shepherds discern, interpret, and apply His teachings to our everyday lives. 
    The Church’s Social Doctrine, by Fr. Jeffrey Kirby, is an approachable, easy-to-read guide on eight of our most pressing social issues. The book applies divine wisdom and the guidance of the Church as it dissects oft-debated topics, presenting helpful teaching so that the reader knows how to navigate today’s contentious world with conviction and a clear conscience. 
    The book answers: 
    • Why is abortion above all other social issues in importance? 
    • Can immigration be both moral and limited? 
    • What is the Christian responsibility to the environment? 
    • How are we called to approach the LGBTQ+ movement? 
    • Is healthcare a human right? 
    • When can artificial nutrition and hydration be suspended for a dying relative? 
    • Is the Critical Race Theory within the bounds of justice? 
    • Why can’t women be ordained priests?

    A tour-de-force guide to Zen Master Dogen's most subtle and sophisticated philosophical premises: that being and time are inseparable. 
     
     
     
    Being-Time thoroughly explores Dogen's teaching on how we practice as Buddhas by understanding the relationship between being and time as it is—and as we perceive it to be. Using Dogen's Shobogenzo Uji (The True Dharma Eye, Being-Time), Shinshu Roberts offers a twofold analysis of this teaching: the meaning of the text and practice with the text, giving examples how we apply Dogen's complex teaching to our daily lives.

    Urban development has long been a critical component of economic and social growth worldwide. As populations continue to increase and cities expand, the planning, management, and policies surrounding urban spaces become ever more complex. Urban development encompasses the physical, economic, and social transformation of cities, focusing on housing, infrastructure, transportation, and public spaces, while also addressing broader issues such as economic disparity, environmental sustainability, and social justice. 
    Historically, urbanization has been driven by industrialization, technological advancements, and shifts in global economic patterns. The migration of people from rural to urban areas in search of better job opportunities and living conditions has accelerated this process. As a result, cities have grown in both size and importance, becoming hubs for innovation, culture, and commerce. However, this growth has not come without challenges. Rapid urbanization often leads to overcrowded living conditions, increased pollution, traffic congestion, and the strain of public services. 
    At the heart of urban development is the relationship between power, policy, and planning. Political decisions and governmental priorities often shape the trajectory of cities, influencing everything from zoning laws and land use to infrastructure development and housing affordability. In this context, urban planning becomes not just a technical exercise, but a deeply political one, with differing interests—ranging from developers and business leaders to community groups and activists—competing for influence. The way these decisions are made can either foster inclusivity and equity or exacerbate social inequalities.
