Christ's Twelve
Meet 12 human beings like us—who became the Church's founding Saints
One review in the mid-twentieth century called it "A gallery of living portraits." Some of them may not correspond to the image the reader has grown up with, but they are bound to throw new light on that image.
These "ignorant" Twelve, along with St. Paul, overturned the pagan world by preaching Christ Crucified - and within 50 years, not only was Christian doctrine preached and embraced all over the world, but the very emperor of Rome had declared himself a follower of the lowly Nazarene. A glimpse at author Fr. F.J.Muller's portraits - and somewhere in them you may find someone you know.

The Mass in Slow Motion
The 1940s masterpiece rhapsodically endorsed by the London Tablet and Catholic Universe…then, like so much else, forgotten after Vatican II.
This is perhaps the most famous single series of Monsignor Knox's sermons—the Mass taken step by step, to show what it means to the priest offering it, and what it could mean to the congregation offering it with him.The congregation is a group of literate students, and never were sermons more closely related to the congregation actually present. He never abandons the conversational tone, and he interweaves the most trifling elements in his hearer's lives with the profoundest spirituality. In reality, the sermons are for everybody: one automatically makes the substitution of one's own interests and distractions for theirs.
Now you more completely understand…
- The Mass as one continuous action
- The prayers at the foot of the altar

Sacred Then and Sacred Now: The Return of the Old Latin Mass
"What earlier generations held as sacred remains sacred and great for us too."
-Pope Benedict XVI, on the Latin Missal of 1962
ALL the major questions answered, among them:
- why did the Pope restore the old Mass when we already can have the new Mass in Latin?
- does Benedict XVI regret Vatican II?
- which Mass is the real Latin rite?
- what are the differences between the old and new forms?
- why is there no Communion in the hand at the old Mass?
- are standing for Communion, female altar servers, and Eucharistic "Ministers" signs of progress in faith?
- why does it make sense to have Mass in Latin at all if no one understands it?
- isn't the new form of Mass better for "participation"?
