What is Catholicism? A two-thousand-year-old living tradition? A worldview? A way of life? A relationship? A mystery? In Catholicism, Bishop Robert Barron examines all these questions and more, seeking to capture the body, heart, and mind of the Catholic faith. Starting from the essential foundation of Jesus Christ’s Incarnation, life, and teaching, Bishop Barron moves through the defining elements of Catholicism.

The smoke clears. The world watches. A name is announced. A man steps forward and the earth’s gaze falls upon him. We have a Pope! And his name is Leo XIV. But who is this 266th successor to St. Peter? What is the former Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost’s vision for the Church, and what impact will his papacy have on Catholics and on the world? Veteran Catholic journalist and historian Matthew Bunson offers the first authoritative portrait of the new Holy Father.

No word in our language is more misunderstood than the word “heart.’ And almost no word is more important, for it refers to what is at the very center of our soul. We have mapped the outer world, in fact the whole universe, with amazing exactness . . . but we have neglected the world within. This new book by venerable Catholic thinker Peter Kreeft offers a map of that inner world, of the self. In it, he takes up the mantle of Dietrich von Hildebrand and plumbs the depths of that most misunderstood (by the world) and overlooked (by philosophers and theologians) part of the human being.

Surveys show that the leading cause of Catholics leaving the Church is not receiving solid, timely answers to questions about their Faith. Heightening this problem is a hostile secular culture that perceives faith as being at odds with science and the modern world. In this incisive book, David Bonagura directly answers one hundred hot-button questions about the supernatural life and Catholicism today. The questions, which were submitted anonymously by young adults in New York City, leave no controversial issue unaddressed.

Rarely has a book had such an impact on so many of us here at Ignatius Press. It is one of the most powerful and moving books we have come across. If you can only buy one book this season, this must be the one. Here is the astonishing true story of the harrowing experiences of a young German seminarian drafted into Hitler’s dreaded SS at the onset of World War II.

The Sexual Revolution—and the breakdown of the Family—has brought misery to millions. In The Sexual State, Jennifer Roback Morse shows that the Sexual Revolution did not just “happen” like a force of nature. Rather, it was deliberately created by “elites,” harnessing the power of the State, allowing them inflict three false and calamitous ideologies—contraception, divorce, and gender—that have led to widespread and profound unhappiness, and worse.

In the depths of every human heart lies a longing for something more—a desire that only God can fulfill. Yet our desires are often disordered, leading us away from rather than toward our Creator. How do we align our deepest yearnings with God's perfect will? In this profound spiritual work, you will discover the Lord’s Prayer as more than a formula of words—it is a divine pathway of transformation, a school that reshapes our desires according to the heart of God. Drawing from the rich insights of Saints Augustine and Thomas Aquinas, this meditation guides readers through each petition...

Throughout the modern era, Galileo Galilei has been presented as a victim of cruel torture of conscience, theological narrow-mindedness, and ecclesiastical harassment typical of a dark, closed-minded Church. Frequently portrayed as such in theaters due to prevailing political ideologies, the story of Galileo points to the long-held tension between “science and faith,” “technology and ethics,” and “progress and the Church.” The story of the real Galileo, however, which has not been told—until now—is sure to rock the established narrative.

It has been famously pointed out that the Holy Roman Empire was neither holy, nor Roman, but it was also not an empire in the sense people expect when hearing the term, but it is clear that church clergy occupied a privileged place in medieval society. Europe had inherited Christianity from the Roman Empire, and the concept of a united Christendom and empire were practically synonymous. Indeed, there was no real consciousness of the Roman Empire ever having ended.

Te quiero, eres importante para mí, cuento contigo: amistad, afecto, aprecio, atención, cuidado, son deseos imprescindibles que nos unen y por los que el corazón siente una sed innata. El ser humano necesita amar y ser amado. De todos es sabido que compartir la bondad reduce las penas y contagia la alegría. El mandamiento del amor que nos dejó Jesús solo nos pide que amemos a los demás y a nosotros mismos de un modo auténtico, porque solo así nuestras vidas serán plenas, ricas y satisfactorias.

Belief is not just a vague, feel-good concept. It’s the force that moves mountains, the unseen spark behind every breakthrough, and the invisible architect of the life we live. Every invention, revolution, healing, or transformation that has ever occurred started with someone who dared to believe it was possible—before anyone else could see it. In this book, we’ll explore belief not just from a motivational perspective, but through the lens of ancient wisdom, scriptural truth, and cutting-edge science. We’ll dig into what sacred texts, including the Bible, say about the power of ...

In the eternal battle for souls, prayer is our greatest weapon. In this book on spiritual warfare, acclaimed author and radio host Jesse Romero emphasizes the importance of prayer in facing our modern crises, especially for men who are the heads of their households. He reminds us that the faculty of prayer is both a gift and a protective weapon from God. Far from a passive routine, it is an intrepid action in which we directly encounter the divine and drive away the diabolic.

In How Catholics Encounter the Bible, award-winning biblical scholar and historian Michael Peppard explores the paradoxical role of the Bible for Catholics—a book central to their tradition, but not usually in the form of a book. Biblical ideas and beliefs are more often mediated through diverse modes of storytelling, artistic imagination, and ritual.

We are all called to be saints! This is what we are made for and this is the only way to happiness. Life in Christ, a life lived according to the will of God, is the only way to live out our dignity and to experience the freedom we so long for. This book helps to shed light on the glorious calling we have received to become saints. A life of sin leads to death and despair, a life of grace and moral uprightness leads to happiness. This is a simple truth that we must all discover and live. Catholic morality is often seen in a negative way. We often think morality is about “what I can’t do...

The goal of this four-volume series is to present each saint found on the Catholic ...
