Ronald Knox
A Retreat for Lay People E
Msgr. Knox shapes his collection around the classic
Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius. He addresses the
big questions—the fear of death, the problem of suffering,
the world to come—but he also explores the
little questions that loom large in our daily lives, like
minor trials, liberty of spirit in prayer, and the use of
God’s creatures. These “pieces of eight” are punctuated
by two meditations suitable for a Holy Hour.

In Soft Garments EA
Classic Catholic Apologetics
Erudite and profound, Knox not only helped keep
his Catholic students at Oxford aflame with faith,
but also led many non-Catholics into the Church.
Some of the best talks by Knox are gathered in this
volume. “If God Exists”, “The Unholiness of the
Church” and “Unselfishness in Marriage” are but
a few of the topics he deftly discusses.

and “the ambitions Catholics honour”.
