Do you remember the last time you marveled at the night sky? How long has it been since you gazed in amazement at the stars above and listened to the sacred silence? The night sky offers an experience of awe and wonder, one that for many of us calls back to our childhood. It can also be an opportunity to connect with the creator of the universe and behold his heavenly majesty.
Behold the Heavens invites you on a journey of encounter and prayer. This book is a pilgrimage through the night sky, where we meet God through the beauty of his creation, the words of Sacred Scripture, and the call to prayer. This is not a book about definitions of astronomical objects, but an invitation to experience the night sky through biblical eyes and with childlike wonder.
As we gaze upon the night sky, we come to stand in awe of God and all that he has made. In doing so, may we draw closer to God and open our hearts to how he is speaking to us.

In Science, Reason, and Faith, Fr. Robert Spitzer, SJ draws the modern reader's attention to the many seeming conflicts between science, reason, and Catholic teaching. By tackling these difficult questions, he shows that it is precisely through the integration of science, reason, and faith that we can truly discover ourselves, our world, and our God.
In Pursuit of Wisdom moves beyond polemical and surface-level approaches to glean a more accurate picture of the historical relationship between scientific inquiry and the Catholic Faith. Beginning with the earliest days of the Church, proceeding through the Middle Ages, Renaissance, and beyond, Catholic history author Phillip Campbell tells the stories of brilliant individuals, challenging controversies, and awe-inspiring discoveries that form the tapestry of the Church's rich engagement with science.
In Entering Heaven on Earth, Fr. Lawrence Lew, OP, shows you how to decode the signs and symbols found in our churches and to identify the saints depicted in them. This richly illustrated book filled with photographs the author has taken of churches from around the world will help you to see the churches you worship in or visit from a fresh perspective and to remember the true purpose of a church building.
A beautiful way to introduce children to beloved saints. Created by artist Adalee Hude, each amazing illustration is rich with color and detail, reminiscent of magnificent stained-glass windows. Each page includes a Latin word associated with that particular saint, along with a brief discussion of the word's meaning.
