In The Bible Is a Catholic Book, Jimmy Akin shows how the Bible cannot exist apart from the church. In its origins and its formulation, in the truths it contains, in its careful preservation over the centuries, and in the prayerful study and elucidation of its mysteries, Scripture is inseparable from Catholicism. This is fitting, since both come from God for our salvation. If you're a Catholic who sometimes gets intimidated by the Bible, The Bible Is a Catholic Book will help you better understand and take pride in this gift that God gave the world through the church.

Dr. Greg Bottaro explains how mindfulness can help us become aware of the present moment and accept it. Catholic mindfulness is a way to practically trust God more in our lives. Instead of separating faith from day-to-day life, mindfulness helps bridge the gap so we can feel the sense of safety and peace God intends us to have. Following the exercises in this audiobook, you'll discover how mindfulness can help you be more present to everything in your life from a trip to the grocery store or relaxing with friends to listening more attentively to a homily.

In a time when technology penetrates our lives in so many ways and materialism exerts such a powerful influence over us, Robert Cardinal Sarah presents a bold book about the strength of silence. The modern world generates so much noise, he says, that seeking moments of silence has become both harder and more necessary than ever before. Silence is the indispensable doorway to the divine, explains the cardinal in this profound conversation with Nicolas Diat, and he seeks to restore to silence its place of honor and importance.

Publisher's Summary
What is the meaning of life? Throughout recorded history, humans have pondered this question. In Exploring Catholic Theology, a masterful course by Boston College's Fr. Harvey Egan, you will grapple with life's ultimate questions as you explore the Christian tradition.
With the aid of Fr. Egan's exceptional teaching, you will discover deeper insights into general and individual Christian beliefs. An award-winning theologian who received his doctorate under Karl Rahner, he shows you Christianity's heritage as a powerful whole, allowing you to explore the full range of life's greatest mysteries.
Thorough yet accessible, Fr. Egan's lectures focus on major Christian tenets while also considering smaller ones. To grasp these truths, you will tackle essential scriptural, exegetical, dogmatic, historical, theological, and ecumenical questions. In addition to using new insights from contemporary Christian movements and thinkers, you will encounter perspectives from various traditions.
Drawing on nearly fifty years of teaching, Fr. Egan's course imparts powerful wisdom to lifelong Christians and non-Christians alike. His 24-lecture course reveals the universality of our quest to comprehend life's purpose: our one humanity, our one world, our one cosmos. Gain a deeper awareness of the mysteries of existence today.
Critic Reviews
"Guided by his best friend Jesus - he's a Jesuit - and inspired by his mentor Rahner, Fr. Harvey Egan has spent a lifetime contemplating Christianity and the mystery of existence. Here, he offers the best spiritual wisdom from his mystical life for those of us who are less capable of imagining the Mystery." (Thomas Groome, Professor of Theology and Religious Education, Boston College)

Insightful, living and fascinating
Fr. Egan is one of the great professors of Catholic Theology. In this series, he has clearly distilled decades of wisdom and study. Theology is a broad and deep topic, but in this series Egan focuses on some of its most important ideas. He brings clarity, wit and rock-solid faith. I highly recommend each of his Learn25 courses, especially in including this one.
