LOR_5127763.jpg Our Glorious Popes
$12.95
by Sr. Catherine M.I.C.M. A powerfully written history of the Church as illustrated in the challenging pontificates of ten of her more illustrious champions of orthodoxy. As one reads through the first forty-two pages, one is virtually taken on a journey through some four hundred years of tempus ecclesiae, from the momentous entrance of Saint Peter into the fearsome capitol of Satan's doomed empire, to the triumph of the last Christological Council, Chalcedon, held under the pastoral eye of Leo I, the first Pope that Catholic posterity dared to call "the Great." Sister Catherine vividly brings to life the painful and virile maturation of the Church Militant from its infancy in Jerusalem to its full manhood as expressed by the Toma of Leo solemnly read at Chalcedon in 451. The remaining bulk of information dovetails into the major periods of religious crises and tells of those heroic Popes who steered the Church through these gravest trials. For example, see how the little known Greek Pope Saint Zachary fought the Moslem influence which generated eastern Iconoclasm; see the Gregorys form the temporal city of God into the vibrant and monolithic power that Jesus intended; and see how the two Pius's re-establish orthodoxy with one sword and humiliate the brazenly open anti-Christian forces with the other - burying them - for a time. This is a book that can restore hope and confidence in the might of the papacy.

$14.99
"by Patrick Madrid. This exciting book offers a tour-de-force refutation of 30 major arguments raised against the papacy. Using Scripture, Church history, and common sense (with a dash of wit added for good measure), Madrid explains why these ""pope fictions"" simply don't hold water. Fr. Ray Ryland, a former Protestant minister and now a Catholic priest, says ""In a very readable style, Pope Fiction catalogs and refutes those fictions charitably and completely. Had it been available when I first began to be drawn to the Church, my journey home would have been years shorter."" Catholic author and apologist David Hess praises its ""amazing clarity and readability."" Marcus Grodi hails Pope Fiction, calling it, ""concise and complete with a welcome tinge of humor. I highly recommend this book to all those who are looking for truth. They'll find it here."""
