    Let's go back in time to Victorian England to find out. 
      
    Corsets were required for ladies in Victorian times, according to a well-known anecdote. It's debatable how prevalent corsets were, but they compressed a woman's body like a snake, making her waist seem thinner. 
    Corsets were effective but so tight that they caused internal harm to women. They also induced atrophy in a woman's lower back. 
    Corsets were so constricting that ladies often collapsed while wearing them! 
      
    But here's the twist... 
      
    It was thought that fainting while wearing a corset was a good thing! It was seen as a sign of excellent breeding.

    A Mild Case of Dead examines the folly of pursuing greater satisfaction in life through the goals of health, fitness, and weight loss. It occurs to us as logical to seek these qualities as a way to be more satisfied with our lives, but we seek them only because of a dissatisfaction with our lives. The human design is to be more satisfied with life first. When you’re guided by humanity instead of logic your physical state becomes a byproduct of that satisfaction, not the way to it.  
    Written and narrated by the author, the book explains why he chose to abandon this work and close his gym forever. He realized that the issues that cause people to pursue health and fitness strategies are never resolved with the minutiae of programs or routines or diets because they are internal struggles first. 
    The natural way to be satisfied with your body is to be satisfied with your life. Any other process is only a theory about life, not the real thing.

    An extraordinary true story of survival and courage through the Holocaust. 
     
     
     
    Poland, 1943. It was the last refuge of the desperate, a warren of sewers underneath their city. Above, as the Nazis destroyed the ghetto of the city of Lvov, a small band of Jews escaped into a grim network of tunnels, living for fourteen months with the city's waste, the sudden floods, the fumes and the damp, the rats, the darkness, and the despair. 
     
     
     
    Their only support was a lone sewer worker, an ex-criminal who constantly threatened to leave them. Many died; some falling into the rushing waters of the river, some simply of exhaustion. At one point the survivors found themselves trapped in a chamber, filling to the roof with storm-water. 
     
     
     
    Yet survive they did, even infiltrating the camps above to find their missing relatives. When the Russians liberated Lvov, they emerged from the sewers filthy, bent double, emaciated, unrecognizable . . . but alive. 
     
     
     
    This powerful story based on a long series of interviews, and a hitherto private diary, creates a blazing testimony to human faith and endurance.

    Do you wish you had paid attention and actually learned French in high school? Is “learn Spanish” one of the New Year’s resolutions you always fail to keep? Benny Lewis’s Fluent in 3 Months (2014) can teach you how to change that. 
    A language is used for communication, and you should always strive to utilize it with other people, no matter what your skill level is. Forget the traditional learning methods, such as memorizing vocabulary lists and conjugation sheets, which are the reason many beginners get discouraged. Instead, Lewis shows you how to apply interesting methods that help you learn language quickly and start speaking it with others. The learning process should be fun and alive, just like language itself.

    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?

    Kayleigh McEnany brings to life the key cultural and political issues of our time,  analyzing world events through the lens of faith and providing listeners with Serenity in the Storm. 
     
     
     
    Our world, without question, is experiencing aberrational times. The life-altering realities of COVID-19 that I worked through as White House press secretary were just the start of it. What followed was a series of history-defining events. From the fall of Afghanistan to the nationwide crime wave, we've all endured painful images of death, destruction, and chaos. Meanwhile, radical teachings on gender and race have infiltrated our nation's schools, poisoning the minds of our children—all at a time when our country feels more divided than ever before. Along with these twenty-first century realities can come a feeling of despair and discouragement. Indeed, I hear it all the time as I crisscross the country: Americans feel disheartened and seek hope. 
     
     
     
    Taking a similar format to my New York Times bestselling book, For Such a Time as This, I analyze our domestic and international challenges through the lens of faith. Though we have lived through dark times, the storms we face have prompted many great leaders to rise to the moment and have left a yearning in the human heart for a Savior, Jesus Christ, who is walking alongside us every step of the way.
