v.48: Biondo, Flavio. Scritti inediti e rari di Biondo Flavio... 1927.
Deacon Rick was ordained a permanent deacon in the Catholic Church in 2012. He has delivered hundreds of homilies since that time. He preaches regularly at his home parish of St. Pius X Catholic Church in Indianapolis, Indiana, as well at school Masses at St. Theodore Guerin High School in Noblesville, Indiana, where he serves as president. Deacon Rick believes scripture-based homilies should focus on one or more of the following: instruction, inspiration, or practical application. As for his homilies, Deacon Rick says, "I will occasionally devote an entire homily to instruction, but the vast majority focus on practical application. In other words, how can we live out the gospel message in our everyday lives? I hope all my homilies offer a bit of inspiration." Deacon Rick's homilies capture the joys and challenges of being a husband, father, and educator. He embraces his role as an evangelist and encourages all the faithful to do the same. His homilies offer them guidance on being God's storytellers as well.

The Deacon’s Handbook is more than just a resource for those serving as deacons and those who aspire to be one. The fact is that you don’t have to be a deacon to apply principles that God would smile upon. The wisdom in this handbook transcends sex, age, and educational background. In other words, it may be geared for deacons, but it can benefit anyone. Leonard Gillams, a longtime ordained deacon, observes that while no one is perfect, how we behave informs ourselves, others, and God Himself on how we are measuring up to His Holy standards. He considers questions such as: How did the deacon’s ministry develop? How can a deacon effectively interact with a congregation? How can a deacon build a strong spiritual foundation from which to serve the church? The author emphasizes that just as God holds deacons responsible for the churches they serve, He also expects them to take care of their families. Get guidance to succeed at church and at home with wisdom steeped in Scripture and firsthand experience.
Covering all aspects of communication research, the book also explains the ethical issues involved in research and clearly sets out questions of objectivity, qualitative and quantitative approaches and the role of empirical research.

This book is about the 'other' Norman Conquest. It is the story of Robert Guiscard, perhaps the most extraordinary European adventurer between Caesar and Napoleon. In one year, 1084, he had both the Eastern and Western Emperors retreating before him and one of the most formidable of medieval Popes in his power. It is also the story of his brother Roger, thanks to whom he conquered Sicily from the Saracens; and of Roger's descendants, notably his son Roger 11, who converted his father's achievement into a cosmopolitan and cultivated kingdom whose surviving monuments still dazzle us today. The Normans in the South is the first of two volumes that recount the dazzling story of the Norman Kingdom of Sicily. The second volume The Kingdom of the Sun is also being reissued in Faber Finds. 'Diligence, narrative skill, and a scholarship fired by enthusiasm' Lord Kinross, Sunday Telegraph 'I found the book very enjoyable indeed. It is beautifully written.' Nancy Mitford
