Why Catholicism Matters
Bill Donohue
Always willing to speak his mind
and put up the good fight, Bill
Donohue, the president of the
Catholic League, reminds readers
of the great wealth of charity
and wisdom that exists in the
Catholic tradition. He explores
the four Cardinal Virtues—
Prudence, Justice, Fortitude and
Temperance—and shows us how
the Church’s best attributes can be applied to solve
many of the biggest problems society must confront.
As Donohue makes plain, the Church’s teachings
remain the best guide to good living ever adopted.

Lord of the World A Novel
Robert Hugh Benson
Introduction by Ralph McInerny
In this profound and prescient
novel, Msgr. Robert Hugh
Benson presents an imaginative
foretelling of the end of
the world. Since this novel
appeared in 1906, many others
have been devoted to nuclear
disaster, destructive comets,
and other hair-raising possibilities.
What sets Benson’s story
apart and makes it as readable today as when it was
written is the Catholic and biblical context that provides
the ultimate meaning.

Heresy Ten Lies They
Spread About Christianity
Michael Coren
Michael Coren takes on, and
debunks, ten myths about
Christianity: that it supports
slavery, is racist, sexist, homophobic,
anti-intellectual, anti-
Semitic, provokes war, resists
progress, and is repressive and
irrelevant. In a climate that
is increasingly as ignorant of
Christianity as it is good at condemning it, Coren
provides examples of how these attacks are made,
and explains the reality of the Christian response,
outlining authentic Christian beliefs.
