the international best-seller that told the story of the life of Pope
Benedict XVI from his youth through his election as the Pope. With the
same award-winning author and illustrator, this lavishly illustrated

Be A Man!
Becoming the Man God Created You to Be
Fr. Larry Richards
In Be a Man!, Fr. Larry Richards recounts
his struggles to learn true manhood, as well as the inspiring stories
of others he has served in his decades as a priest. He tells men how to
focus on the right goal, how to live as a beloved son of God, of the
need to acknowledge one’s faults and to live according to the Holy
Spirit, to be a man of true love and of wisdom, to appreciate properly
the differences between men and women, to pursue holiness, and to make
a difference in the world. Not preachy but direct, Father Richards
challenges men to be strong, without putting on a mask of false
strength or machismo. He calls men to admit their weaknesses and
limitations, while urging them to find strength in faith and genuine
love to overcome their sins and faults.
The Scarlet and the Black
The True Story of Monsignor Hugh O’Flaherty, Hero of the Vatican Underground
J. P. Gallagher
It
has all the hallmarks of a best-selling fictional thriller: espionage,
conspiracy, a struggle against evil powers, undercover work by dark of
night... but it's all true. The Scarlet and the Black tells the
astonishing and heroic true story of Monsignor Hugh O'Flaherty, the man
dubbed "The Scarlet Pimpernel of the Vatican" during World War II.
The Scarlet and the Black is also available on DVD
God: The Joy of My Life
St. Teresa of the Andes
Michael Griffin, OCD
St.
Teresa of the Andes, Chile’s first saint, lived in the 20th century,
died at the young age of 19 yrs. old, and was canonized by Pope John
Paul II. Her beautiful story and her witness of love for Christ and
others is a shining light for the Church today, especially for our
youth. She was a vibrant young woman who loved music, sports and had a
wide circle of friends, and her story and spiritual message bears some
striking resemblances to that other great young modern Carmelite saint,
Therese of Lisieux. This work, written by an expert on her life and
spirituality, tells her whole life story. It also includes the homilies
by John Paul II at her beatification and her canonization, as well as
her own Spiritual Diary that reveals the profound insights of her own
spiritual journey and holiness.
Charity in Truth
Pope Benedict XVI
Benedict XVI has something for everyone in Charity in Truth—from
praising profit to defending the environment, from calling for a role
for government in the economy to insisting on the necessity of moral
transformation and “gratuitousness” in economic life, from the issue of
immigration to the importance of technology. However, he also insists
on discernment and the purification of our ideas by faith and reason,
in order to temper any immoderate and one-sided enthusiasms.
Splendors of the Magnificat
A
stunning art book with audio CD to enter into the spirit of Mary’s
Magnificat guided by master artists and composers. Audio CD of 11 of
the most inspiring musical renditions of the Magnificat from the 13th
to the 20th century.
DVDs
The 13th Day
The
13th Day dramatizes the true story of three young shepherds who
experienced six apparitions of Our Lady between May and October 1917,
which culminated in the final prophesied Miracle of the Sun on October
13th. Abducted from their homes, thrown into prison and interrogated
under the threat of death in the government’s attempt to silence them,
the children remained true to their story about the crucial messages
from Mary of prayer, repentance and conversion for the
world. Stylistically beautiful and technically innovative, the film
uses state-of-the-art digital effects to create stunning images of the
visions and the final miracle that have never before been fully
realized on screen.
Joseph of Nazareth
The Story of the Man Closest to Christ
The
first feature film ever on the story of St. Joseph - carpenter, husband
of Mary and the foster father of Jesus Christ. Scripture tells us that
St. Joseph was a "just man", and that God gave him the most daunting
task ever asked of a man - to be the husband of the woman who would
give birth to the Messiah, and the father and protector of this Holy
Family, the man closest to Christ.
St. Teresa of the Andes
A
beautiful, epic mini-series produced in Chile that tells the story of
the inspiring life of the new young Carmelite saint who lived in the
20th century, died at the age of just 19 years old, and was canonized
by Pope John Paul II in 1993. St. Teresa of Jesus of the Andes, known
officially as “St. Teresa of the Andes”, grew up in a close-knit, upper
middle class Catholic family in Santiago, Chile, was very popular with
her friends and relatives, entered Carmel at age 19, and died before
her 20th birthday.
Padre Pio
Between Heaven and Earth
Based
on the historical records and the personal testimony of his fellow
friars, this is the amazing true story of the life of the famous
stigmatic monk, St. Padre Pio, a contemporary saint who died in 1968.
Blessed with incredible spiritual gifts, including healing,
bi-location, reading of souls and the stigmatic wounds, Padre Pio was a
powerful witness for Christ, and a great spiritual guide to countless
souls for over fifty years.

and more. The album was recorded at the legendary Abbey Road Studios in
