  The Catholic Church today finds itself in the midst of a crisis. The flock is scattering, and while some shepherds bravely set off in search of those lost and wandering sheep, others drive them, and many more, further from the fold. 
  But the Church has seen and weathered numerous crises in its two millennia, and always one or more of its priests and bishops stood up and rallied the faithful: whether to rebuke an Emperor or oppose a policy, encourage the faithful or defend the faith, bishops and priests ascended the pulpit and delivered sermons that met the pressing needs of their own times, sermons which should be read and remembered by Catholics of all times. You will find comfort within these pages as you read the words of these heroic pastors of souls including:St. Ambrose of MilanSt. AugustineSt. John ChrysostomSt. Edmund CampionPope St. John Paul IIAnd seven others 
  Enter into the minds and thoughts of some of the bravest, most eloquent homilists the Church has produced. More than one was killed for the words they uttered, which you will find in these pages. But they counted not the cost. 
  Guided by Fr. Paul D. Scalia’s introduction and commentaries, you will come to see that the Church has faced crises and survived, even thrived, before. In fact, it is one of the marks of her authenticity, as it has often been said, that no mere human institution could have survived the persecutions and scandals that the Catholic Church has withstood over 2000 years.

  The Jewish scriptures, known collectively as the Tanakh, serve as the foundation of Jewish religious and cultural identity. These sacred texts, developed over centuries, provide insight into the beliefs, laws, and traditions that have shaped Jewish communities. The origins of these scriptures trace back to ancient Israel, where oral traditions and early writings formed the basis of what would become the Hebrew Bible. 
  The Torah, also known as the Five Books of Moses, is the most revered section of Jewish scripture. It is believed to have been divinely revealed to Moses on Mount Sinai and encompasses the laws, history, and ethical teachings central to Judaism. The Torah consists of Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy, each of which outlines the early history of the Israelites and their covenant with God. These texts were initially passed down through oral tradition before being written and compiled into a unified body of scripture. 
  In addition to the Torah, other ancient Hebrew texts played a significant role in shaping Jewish scripture. The writings of the Prophets (Nevi’im) and the sacred poetry and wisdom literature found in the Writings (Ketuvim) were added over time. The historical context of these texts reflects the struggles, triumphs, and spiritual evolution of the Jewish people. The Book of Judges and the Books of Kings, for example, document the rise and fall of Israelite leaders, while the Psalms offer poetic expressions of devotion and supplication.

  Fire in the Whole - Embracing...

  How can all Christians claim to love and serve the same God and yet see and act in the world so differently? Texas attorney and writer Robert Callahan makes the case that white American Christians have failed to embody both their civic commitment to liberty and justice for all and their biblical call to love every neighbor as Christ loves us. In Fire in the Whole, Callahan explores the poignant journey of Christians who grapple with their sense of belonging within a faith tainted by toxic political ideologies—seeking healing for their souls. Boldly questioning the authenticity of individuals within the white Christian community who adhere to Christian nationalism or claim color-blind ignorance of racial injustice, this book navigates the complex modern Christian landscape, illuminating deep-rooted racial and religious rifts exacerbated by recent political figures and toxic theology. 
   
   
   
  Through compelling storytelling and analysis, Callahan provides meticulous research and heartfelt insights, drawing a roadmap for healing. Whether you are a Christian minority who is hurt and angry, a progressive white ally seeking understanding of what went wrong, or a conservative white Christian willing to engage in constructive dialogue to rebuild a fractured community, this book is a powerful guide to navigating the flames of righteous anger and emerging whole again.
