Story
Padre Pio of Pietrelcina is perhaps the single most extraordinary saint in the modern history of the Catholic Church. His heart was pierced. He carried the wounds of Christ on his hands, feet, and side for half a century. He communicated with his spiritual sons and daughters through bilocation and mystical perfume. He read the souls of his penitents. He offered his suffering so that others might be healed. He built one of the most significant hospitals in Southern Italy. Most importantly, Padre Pio wanted others to be redeemed. In Bret Thoman’s latest book, he has created a fresh, new ...

Story
Travel with Bret Thoman on this hilarious and touching romp as he narrates his lifelong journey from his American upbringing to a new life in Italy. Written with passion, humor, and candor, this book masterfully captures the heart, soul, and spirit of Italy and the Italians as he navigates the wonder and craziness of this new Italian life. Initially drawn to Florence to study the language and explore his Italian ancestry, he feels a lure to the less touristy South. In the slower half of Italy, dialects are spoken, America is still revered, and lazy lunches are the high point of the day. In ...

Story
Padre Pio was born in a rural, farming village. He entered a Franciscan order centered on harsh penance and radical poverty. He lived more than fifty years in a mountain hermitage. And yet, everyone has heard his name. But few know who Padre Pio truly was. In his latest work, Bret Thoman has pierced the life of Padre Pio in a novel way: through a pilgrimage to all eleven Capuchin friaries and sites where the stigmatic saint lived. With Pietrelcina as his base, Thoman sets out each morning to the "Convents of Padre Pio." He accompanies the reader into these special places with captivating ...

Story
In this riveting biography, author Bret Thoman accomplishes what few biographers have. He pierces the inner life of Francis, revealing his deepest passions, his unquenchable love for poverty, and his unshakable grip on the core of the Gospel. The life of Francis, so often festooned with spectacle and miracle, is in reality the story of a soul yearning for God in every moment and glimpsing his presence in all creation.

Story
Join Thoman as he skillfully weaves the known facts of Clare’s life with imaginative passages that bring the listener into the profoundly spiritual world of the “Light from the Cloister.” Hailing from an aristocratic or “Major” family, Clare continually—in imitation of Our Lord and Francis—sought to make herself lesser or minor. In the process, in another of God’s “divine paradoxes,” she became a giant, not only of her Age, but of all time.

Story
Lucia Fiorentino (1889-1934) lived a hidden but extraordinary life. She was one of the earliest spiritual daughters of Padre Pio. She was also a mystic, victim soul, and recipient of numerous charisms, such as visions and locutions. In 1906, she had a vision of an immense tree planted near the Capuchin friary in her native village of San Giovanni Rotondo. Then she heard a voice: “This is the symbol of a soul who is now far away but will come here. He will be strong and well-rooted like this tree and will cover the entire world with its umbrage.” When Padre Pio arrived in 1916, she ...

Story
Everyone has heard of St. Francis, as well as his female counterpart, St. Clare. They lived in Assisi in the Middle Ages. They founded religious orders. They embraced poverty and served those at the margins of society. But what were they really like? What compelled them to give away everything they owned to live like the poor? What was it that moved them to lower themselves and seek Christ on the cross? In this book, Franciscan guide and author, Bret Thoman, brings to life the spirituality and milieu of two of Christendom’s most beloved saints. Centered on the saint's own writings, the ...

Story
On July 5, 1902, Maria Goretti was brutally stabbed to death by Alessandro Serenelli. The 12-year-old virgin-martyr not only fought to maintain her purity; she forgave her killer and declared that she wanted him to be with her in Heaven. In what is the most extensive biography on the life of St. Maria Goretti in the English language, author Bret Thoman brings the story to life like never before. In addition to drawing on the most updated biographies in Italian, the author personally visited the three sites where the young saint lived: Corinaldo, the Roman countryside, and the farmhouse near...
