What is virtue? It is not a question often asked anymore; yet throughout the centuries, philosophers have considered it one of the most important questions of human life. Coming from the Latin word for “strength", virtue denotes a steady habit of willing the good—in Christian terms, pursuing the love of God and neighbor—in some particular way. While most Catholics know the virtues of faith, hope, and charity, as well as prudence, temperance, courage, and justice, many of us are unaware of numerous other virtues, such as discretion, constancy, and holy silence.

St. Cyril's (313 - 386 AD) famous 23 lectures were delivered to the catechumens in Jerusalem who were being prepared for baptism. They are best considered in two parts. The first 18 are known as the catechetical lectures or Homilies, while the rest are often called the mystagogic catecheses, since they deal with the mysteries: the sacraments of baptism, confirmation, and the Eucharist.

The path of following Jesus is an ancient and storied spiritual tradition. Yet many believers are not familiar with the three major forms of prayer and the three stages of spiritual growth that exist to bring them closer to God. In his most personal book yet, Brant Pitre, PhD, draws on the riches of the Bible, the words of Jesus, and the writings of mystics across the centuries to shed light on the mystery - and wonder - of the spiritual life.

Byrne is a libertarian who did not vote for Trump and has publicly criticized him. That said, he believes the presidential election of 2020 was rigged, and that it should be objectionable to every person who believes "just government derives its power from the consent of the governed". In this book, he explains what caused him, in August of 2020, to study election fraud, and what he believes really happened during the 2020 election.

From award-winning scholar John Bergsma comes an intriguing audiobook that reveals new insights on the Essenes, a radical Jewish community predating Christianity, whose existence, beliefs, and practices are often overlooked in the annuls of history. Bergsma reveals how this Jewish sect directly influenced the beliefs, sacraments, and practices of early Christianity and offers new information on how Christians lived their lives, worshiped, and eventually went on to influence the Roman Empire and Western civilization.

Clarify's terms and words inside the Bible
Revisado: 03-07-21
Many times, terms and words appear in the Bible that may seem derogatory today are actually not. The term Jews is in reference to not only a group of people that followed a specific calendar in time but also lived in a separate area of the region and celebrated passover at a different time of the year and at a different day of the week. Jesus and his followers are from Galilea (north of Jerusalem) and not Judea (south of Jerusalem). Those two groups used different calendars and followed there own separate religious practices and dates and days of the week when those occurred. This is just one clarification that opens up the Bible is ways you would never be able to discover using a modern attitude.

Revisado: 10-04-20
Anyone that suffers from porn addiction usually will try countless times quitting. You'd think it would be easy as not looking at it. This book quickly outlines the science of what, how, why and what you need to do. There are some simple worksheets to fill out to reinforce the solution. There were several times listening to this that I found striking identifiers that I have. It hit home and I pray it will do the same for you. It's a long road but worth it.

Over the past hundred years, scholars have attacked the historical truth of the Gospels and argued that they were originally anonymous and filled with contradictions. In The Case for Jesus, Brant Pitre taps in to the wells of Christian scripture, history, and tradition to ask and answer a number of different questions, including: If we don't know who wrote the Gospels, how can we trust them? How are the four Gospels different from other Gospels, such as the lost Gospel of "Q" and the Gospel of Thomas?

Is Faith in God supposed to be easy?
Revisado: 07-14-19
The connection with Jesus that you will develope will become stronger if you are a regular Bible reader or have a familiar understanding of the Bible. The Bible is a very complex document with riddles scattered throughout. What does it all mean? Why does God really want you to know what believing is and how much of a struggle it can be? This book to me explains Free Will very clearly. Excellent book.

This explosive new audiobook challenges many of the long-held assumptions about blacks, about Jews, about Germans and Nazis, about slavery, and about education. Plainly written, powerfully reasoned, and backed with a startling array of documented facts, Black Rednecks and White Liberals takes on the trendy intellectuals of our times as well as historic interpreters of American life.

Thomas Sowell really pears into the past for clues on what, how, and why groups act the way they do. He also investigates what influences groups to improve or not. My favorite part is the explanation of the difference between the word and attitude of achievement verses alibi. Just terrific.

Marcellino D'Ambrosio dusts off what might have been just dry theology to bring you the exciting stories of great heroes such as Ambrose, Augustine, Basil, Athanasius, John Chrysostom, and Jerome. These brilliant, embattled, and sometimes eccentric men defined the biblical canon, hammered out the Creed, and gave us our understanding of sacraments and salvation. It is they who preserved the rich legacy of the early Church for us.
