The Complete Thinker E<br />
The Marvelous Mind<br />
of G.K. Chesterton<br />
Dale Ahlquist<br />
What does it mean to be a “complete<br />
thinker” It means being<br />
able to take on a wide variety<br />
of ideas and disciplines and put<br />
them all together in a way that<br />
they work together. It means<br />
thinking like G.K. Chesterton.<br />
He sheds light on almost every<br />
subject and opens doors from one thing to another<br />
with dazzling clarity. Drawing on literally hundreds<br />
of references from Chesterton’s vast writings, Dale<br />
Ahlquist conducts a symphony, with Chesterton playing<br />
all the instruments in perfect harmony.<br />

The Will of God E<br />
Finding and Fulfilling Your<br />
Purpose in Life<br />
Kenneth Baker, S.J.<br />
God created us for a purpose.<br />
Each one of us is unique, but<br />
each one has a destiny of eternal<br />
happiness. This book provides<br />
the modern reader with guidance<br />
on how to reach intimacy<br />
with God and happiness with<br />
him forever by bringing one’s life<br />
into conformity with his will. The book consults many<br />
sources—the Bible, the teachings of the Church, and<br />
the lives of the saints—and in all three the formula is<br />
the same: Obey God in all things.<br />

The Autobiography<br />
of a Hunted Priest E<br />
John Gerard, S.J.<br />
This autobiography of a Jesuit<br />
priest in Elizabethan England<br />
is a most remarkable document<br />
and John Gerard, its author,<br />
a most remarkable priest in a<br />
time when to be a Catholic in<br />
England courted imprisonment<br />
and torture; to be a priest was<br />
treason by act of Parliament. The<br />
stirring account of his escape from the Tower of<br />
London, where he was held and tortured, by means<br />
of a rope thrown across the moat, is a daring and<br />
magnificent climax to a true story which, for sheer<br />
narrative power and interest, far exceeds any fiction.<br />

proclaim God’s goodness. This acclaimed new translation<br />
by Sister Maria Boulding, O.S.B., masterfully<br />
captures his experience, and is written in an elegant<br />
and flowing style.<br />

Knowing God E<br />
God and the Human<br />
Condition • Frank Sheed<br />
In Knowing God (previously titled<br />
God and the Human Mind) the great<br />
Catholic writer, teacher, and publisher<br />
Frank Sheed helps readers<br />
to know that God exists, to think<br />
about who and what God is, and<br />
to know God personally. He clears<br />
away popular misunderstandings<br />
of God, often held by otherwise<br />
knowledgeable people. A masterful, lucid writer, Sheed<br />
is not timid about tackling the most challenging questions<br />
the human mind can pose about God, yet he does<br />
not reduce divine mystery to dry propositions or neglect<br />
the necessity of faith.<br />
