The Hidden Face
This study of the life and character of Therese of Lisieux is a remarkable, penetrating, and fascinating search for the truth behind one of the most astounding religious figures of modern times. A young nun who entered a convent at fifteen and died at twenty-four, ThTrFse roused an incredible storm of spontaneous veneration only a few months after her death, and has been called by one Pope as the greatest saint of the modern times. Countless images of the sweetly smiling saint flooded the world. But who was she, really? The Hidden Face has sprung from this question.

Glut und Schmerz des Glaubens
Ida Friederike Görres, bekannte Autorin des deutschen "Renouveau catholique", machte sich einen Namen mit ihrer gleichermaßen von Liebe wie Kritik geprägten Sicht auf die Kirche, mit den ebenso tiefschürfenden wie originellen Darstellungen von großen Heiligen, den gleichbleibend aktuellen Aussagen zu Mann, Frau, Ehe, Zölibat und zu weiteren kontroversen Themen. Das Spektrum der Themen umfasst Görres' Leben und Denken, ihr Kirchenbild, ihre Sicht auf das Verhältnis von religiösem Dasein und Alltag, die Bücher über große Heilige, die faszinierende Vision über die Zukunft der Kirche, Bemerkungen zu ihrer spezifischen Sprache (vor allem im Briefwechsel mit P. Paulus Gordan) sowie die Rezeption des Görres'schen Werks in der englischsprachigen Welt.

Millennial Nuns
More and more people-- especially millennials-- are turning to religion as a source of comfort and solace in our increasingly chaotic world.

In this collective memoir, eight of these Sisters share their own discernment journeys, struggles and crises of faith that they have overcome, and episodes from their daily lives. They offer practical takeaways and tips for living a more spiritually-fulfilled life, no matter your religious affiliation. -- adapted from jacket
Mary's Voice in the Gospel According to John
A New Light on John’s Gospel The Gospel according to John has always been recognized as different from the “synoptic” accounts of Matthew, Mark, and Luke. But what explains the difference? In this new translation and verse-byverse commentary, Michael Pakaluk suggests an answer and unlocks a twothousand-year-old mystery. Mary’s Voice in the Gospel according to John reveals the subtle but powerful influence of the Mother of Jesus on the fourth Gospel. In his dying words, Jesus committed his Mother to the care of John, the beloved disciple, who “from that hour . . . took her into his own home.” Pakaluk draws out the implications of that detail, which have been overlooked for centuri...
