Solidly rooted in Scripture, this book includes an extensive collection of Eucharistic adoration prayers, such as prayers at Mass, Marian prayers, prayers of the saints, novenas, litanies, and more. The leatherette cover provides a classic look and resistance to wear and tear.
The Eucharist is the source and summit of our Catholic Faith. Every time Mass is celebrated, the bread and wine on the altar are consecrated and truly become the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Jesus Christ.
Adoration grows out of the impulse of the heart to worship Christ's true presence, and Catholics of all ages, including and especially young people, are encouraged to participate. In this adoration treasury, written by two Sisters of St. Francis of Perpetual Adoration -- a religious order dedicated to perpetual adoration of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament -- young Catholics will find a multitude of prayers, hymns, meditations, and ways to pray before the Eucharist, accompanied by beautiful illustrations.
Perfect to take with you to Mass or Eucharistic adoration, this book is sure to become a treasured keepsake that helps inspire young Catholics to fall in love with the Real Presence of Jesus Christ.
For six years, before becoming a well-regarded retreat master, Fr. Wayne Sattler lived as a diocesan hermit in a one-room cabin on an abandoned farmstead in rural North Dakota, striving to avail himself of the mystery of what God can do in prayer, clinging to the wisdom of the sixteenth-century Carmelite saints John of the Cross and Teresa of Avila as his trusted guides.
Fr. Sattler was asked many times to write a book sharing the fruits of his time in solitude to help others progress in the spiritual life, and after returning to the active diocesan priesthood in 2013, he completed this long-awaited work. Delving deeply into two of the greatest mystical masterpieces ever written, St. John's The Dark Night and St. Teresa's The Interior Castle, Father leads you through the intricate pathways of contemplative prayer, providing clarity on this oft-misunderstood subject.
As you journey with these Doctors of the Church and grow in self-knowledge, you will discover:
St. John of the Cross describes contemplation as "nothing else than a secret and peaceful and loving inflow of God, which, if not hampered, fires the soul in the spirit of love." This book sheds light upon the great mystery of the mystical life for everyone. Join Fr. Sattler as he guides you in developing the capacity for contemplative prayer in our great hope of being led more deeply into union with God.
Eight modern saints invite you to follow their example to live the Beatitudes--the heart of Jesus's teaching--in your own life.
Through her beautiful full-color art, scripture passages, journaling prompts, and original prayers inspired by the Our Father, popular Catholic artist Jen Norton will guide you to put the Beatitudes into practice as she challenges you to examine the state of your own heart and your willingness to grow in holiness.
Norton compares living what Jesus taught in the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5:3-13) with climbing a mountain--a difficult, irregular, sometimes fear-filled path that eventually leads to a great reward. But she says that like the saints, if you trust God beyond your own understanding, the end of the climb is heaven.
You will learn about each of the Beatitudes from modern saints, including
This book is perfect for personal or group use.
Whether you've just begun to pray or have been faithfully praying for years, the wisdom in this book will help you pray better. It will rescue your prayers from distraction and superficiality and transform them into real occasions for communion with God.
Fr. Lawrence Lovasik here clears away misunderstandings that many people have about prayer -- and shows you innumerable ways you can avoid common obstacles and deepen your prayer life, no matter how much or how little you may have prayed before.
You'll learn what prayer is, why it's necessary, and how to practice the essential forms of Catholic prayer. You'll discover how the Church's sacraments fortify your prayer -- and how prayer, in turn, enhances your reception of the sacraments. You'll find out how to bring to your own prayers the qualities that make prayer effective. Your prayers will become more heartfelt, more focused, and more full of love for God.
Soon your prayer will fill you with a divine peace and joy that no one will be able to take from you. You'll achieve the glorious aim of all prayer: union with God!
You'll grow in prayer and in the graces it brings you as you learn:
Considered by many to be the greatest book of Marian spirituality in one volume, True Devotion to Mary is St. Louis de Montfort's classic statement on the spiritual way to Jesus Christ though the Blessed Virgin Mary.

You'll get to know Mary and become devoted to her as:

Brian Doyle was a one-of-a-kind author who wrote one-of-a-kind prayers about everyday subjects that help readers change the way they see the world.
Prayers for cashiers and good shoes; for shorter sermons and better senators; prayers for the bruised, foolish, glorious, stumbling, brilliant Church; for chaplains and mathematicians; for idiot authors and muddy dogs: These are the most heartfelt and headlong prayers you will ever read and share--the grinning, snarling prayers we mouth quietly in the car and the shower and the pub, the small chapels of our everyday life.
Doyle said he aimed to write short pieces that functioned like "arrows to the heart." This book is a quiver full of those sharp arrows, "stealth theology" that explores everyday encounters--from nuns to possums, from Chet Baker to Port-A-Potties--through a Catholic, sacramental imagination.
Since Doyle's death in 2017 from a brain tumor, enthusiasm for his award-winning writing has only swelled, whether it's his quirky prayers, kinetic essays, or magical novels such as Mink River and The Plover. This tenth anniversary edition of A Book of Uncommon Prayer includes a new foreword from his wife, Mary, and an afterword from his good friend Peter Boland, who delivered the eulogy at Doyle's funeral.
“That’s why the Church is undergoing this National Eucharistic Revival,” explains the Very Rev. Chris Alar, MIC, provincial superior of the Marian Fathers of the Immaculate Conception. “Far too many people have no idea that they’re missing out, or know what they’re missing. People are very casual about missing Mass, ignoring times of Adoration, and often don’t live as though God Almighty was living in their midst in the tabernacles across the world. But whether or not anyone remembers, that’s the truth of the matter. God is here. God is with us. He always has been, sustaining everything, but when He took on flesh and dwelt among us, He gave us an enduring Sacrament of His presence, as well.
“We’ll discuss our Church’s Eucharistic faith in this booklet, equipping you to revive your own Eucharistic devotion as well as to share that devotion with others. We’ll talk about the Church’s plans for this Revival, as well as the witness St. Faustina and others have given to the power and reality of Jesus’ Real Presence in the Eucharist.
“This is some of the most critically important information you’ll ever read. So buckle up, and be ready to be blown away by the goodness and mercy of Jesus, the Eucharistic Lord.”

One key benefit is spiritual growth, a daily reflection on Scripture exposes men to timeless wisdom and the lives of saints. This habit aligns their minds with Gospel values, encouraging virtues like humility, courage, and perseverance. The Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC 2705) underscores meditation on spiritual texts as a path to understanding God's will, making it a practical way to grow in holiness.
Another advantage is discipline. Committing to daily reading builds a routine that mirrors the consistency of prayer or Mass attendance. For men juggling work, family, and societal pressures, this discipline becomes an anchor, helping them prioritize faith over distractions. Research, such as a 2019 study from Psychology of Religion and Spirituality, suggests that regular spiritual practices enhance self-control and emotional stability, benefits that ripple into personal and professional life.
A daily spiritual book also equips Catholic men to lead. As husbands, fathers, or community members, they're called to be servant-leaders (Ephesians 5:25). Reflections on Christ's example or saintly masculinity--think St. Joseph's quiet strength--offer practical insights for guiding others with love and integrity. This strengthens their ability to witness faith in a secular world.
Finally, it fosters peace. In a culture of noise and anxiety, a few minutes with a spiritual text provides stillness, connecting men to God's presence. Over time, this practice transforms them into men of prayer and action, living their faith boldly and authentically.

Daily Companion for Peace of Heart 978-1-947070-47-9
Daily Companion for Peace of Heart is written by Allan F. Wright, University Professor and National speaker and offers a 'reader friendly' translation on the writings of St. John Henry Newman. St. John Henry Newman was a convert to Catholicism and had a profound impact on the Catholic Intellectual Tradition through his writings and sermons. This saint wrote in classical English which many people of this generation find difficult to read and understand. In order to increase the knowledge and wisdom of his writings the Catholic Book Publishing Company thought it wise to offer a readable English version. Each reading begins with a brief quote from Sacred Scripture, a writing of a saint or an inspirational teaching from the Church followed by a reflection and ends with a prayer. A nice way to begin or end each day for those who desire to access the writings of this great saint. This book is an excellent gift for anyone who provides comfort to others.
Newman's emphasis on conscience shaped Catholic thought. In his Letter to the Duke of Norfolk (1875), he described conscience as "the voice of God" within, a moral guide that, when properly formed, aligns with Church authority. This nuanced balance between personal discernment and obedience to doctrine influenced modern Catholic ethics and Vatican II's teachings on religious freedom (Dignitatis Humanae).
His philosophy of education, outlined in The Idea of a University (1852), championed a holistic approach, integrating faith and reason. Newman envisioned universities as places to cultivate wisdom, not just knowledge, a vision that resonates in Catholic higher education today.
His sermons and writings, like Meditations and Devotions, reveal a poetic spirituality that bridges intellect and heart, inspiring countless Catholics. Canonized in Newman's legacy endures as a beacon of intellectual rigor and faithful inquiry, reinforcing the Catholic tradition's commitment to truth, beauty, and the pursuit of God.

St. John Henry Newman (1801-1890) made enduring contributions to the Catholic Intellectual Tradition through his theological depth, philosophical insight, and eloquent defense of faith in an age of skepticism. A convert from Anglicanism, Newman brought a unique perspective that enriched Catholic thought, blending reason, conscience, and revelation.
One of his key contributions is his work on the development of doctrine, articulated in An Essay on the Development of Christian Doctrine (1845). He argued that Catholic teachings evolve organically over time, not as innovations but as deeper expressions of eternal truths. This framework, rooted in historical analysis and Scripture, countered Protestant critiques and remains foundational for understanding Tradition in the Church (Catechism of the Catholic Church, CCC 94).

Daily Companion for Women 978-1-941243-93-0
Daily Companion for Women, written by Carol Kelly-Gangi and published by Catholic Book Publishing, is a devotional treasure designed to enrich the spiritual lives of Catholic women. With a Scripture passage, reflection, and prayer for each day of the year, this lavender Dura-Lux-bound book with a ribbon marker offers a host of benefits that cater to women seeking a freer, fuller, and more faith-filled life.
One primary benefit is its tailored spiritual nourishment. Kelly-Gangi, known for her compilations of saintly and inspirational wisdom, crafts meditations that resonate with women's unique experiences--nurturing families, balancing responsibilities, or seeking personal growth. Each day begins with a Bible verse, such as "You are precious in my eyes" (Isaiah 43:4), followed by a reflection that connects Scripture to feminine strengths like compassion and resilience. This aligns with the Catechism's call to meditate on God's word (CCC 2705), deepening a woman's sense of identity as a beloved daughter of God.
The book's brevity--about a minute per entry--makes it a practical companion for busy schedules. Whether a mother, professional, or retiree, a woman can weave this practice into her day, fostering consistency in prayer. Research, like a 2020 Journal of Spirituality in Mental Health study, links such routines to improved emotional well-being, a benefit enhanced by the book's portable, elegant design.
An excellent prayer book for any Catholic and makes a great gift for any occasion!

Emotionally, it provides upliftment and strength. The reflections address common struggles--stress, doubt, or exhaustion--offering encouragement through saintly examples or Gospel hope. A prayer might ask for grace to love as God loves, reinforcing the Church's teaching that prayer sustains us (CCC 2559). This daily dose of positivity helps women face challenges with renewed faith and peace.
Spiritually, it enhances devotion by emphasizing women's capacity to love and be loved divinely. Kelly-Gangi's "uniquely feminine thoughts" inspire virtues like patience and generosity, echoing the call to live the Gospel (CCC 1694). The book connects readers to Catholic tradition, making it a bridge between personal faith and the universal Church.
Finally, it empowers women to grow in holiness. By spending a few minutes daily with these meditations, they cultivate a deeper relationship with God, finding joy in their vocation--whether single, married, or religious. Daily Companion for Women transforms routine prayer into a meaningful journey, equipping Catholic women to embrace their faith with confidence and grace, one day at a time.

Daily Companion for Young Catholics 978-1-937913-93-9
This book is written by husband, father of four, and teacher Allan F. Wright, and offers a way for young people to engage their faith by praying each day and pondering the reflection. Each day begins with a brief quote from Sacred Scripture, a writing of a saint or an inspirational teaching from the Church followed by a reflection and ends with a prayer. A great way to begin or end each day. This book makes an excellent gift for any young Catholic for Confirmation, graduations or birthdays. Statistics make it clear that young people who pray on a regular basis are more joyful than those who don't.
Moreover, keeping youth engaged ensures the Church's future. They are not just passive recipients but potential leaders--future priests, religious, and lay ministers. Their enthusiasm can inspire innovative outreach, bridging tradition with modern contexts. Faith also empowers them to live counterculturally, rejecting materialism and relativism in favor of charity and truth, as urged by Pope Francis in Christus Vivit.
Ultimately, an engaged young faithful generation strengthens the Church's witness. By nurturing their spiritual lives, we help them grow into disciples who transform the world with love and justice, fulfilling Christ's call to "go and make disciples" (Matthew 28:19).
Among the Feature of this Book:

Keeping young people engaged in the Catholic faith is vital for their spiritual growth, the vitality of the Church, and the broader mission of evangelization. Adolescence and young adulthood are formative periods when individuals shape their identities, values, and worldviews. Active participation in faith ensures they develop a moral compass rooted in Gospel teachings, equipping them to navigate life's complexities with purpose and hope.
One significant benefit is the cultivation of resilience. Faith provides young people with a framework to cope with challenges like peer pressure, mental health struggles, or societal uncertainties. A 2021 study from the American Psychological Association found that religious involvement among youth correlates with lower rates of anxiety and depression, as it offers a sense of belonging and divine support. For Catholics, practices like prayer, Mass, and confession foster a personal relationship with Christ, reinforcing their identity as beloved children of God.
Engagement also builds community. Parishes, youth groups, and retreats connect young people with peers and mentors who share their values, countering the isolation often amplified by digital culture. The Synod on Young People (2018) emphasized that the Church must listen to youth and involve them actively, as their energy revitalizes faith communities. When young Catholics participate in liturgy, service, or catechesis, they feel ownership of their faith, making it relevant and alive.

Pressed for time? Frustrated when things don't go according to plan? Need to fit in one more thing? Time can often feel like something we have to beat or make the most of! Our love-hate relationship with time is unavoidable. Whether we have just enough time or feel like it's moving too slow, it can be a struggle to be at peace with schedules and clocks and the notion that "time is ticking."
What if we nurtured and improved our relationship with time? What if we recognized calm and peaceful thoughts throughout each day?

The Forge is the third collection of St. Josemaría’s refreshingly brief but profoundly weighty reflections and meditations on how to live the Christian life to its absolute fullest.
Like The Way and Furrow, it gives you practical and pointed material for meditation that will help you take your spiritual responsibilities more seriously and move ever closer to the all-consuming forge of God’s love.
St. Josemaría wrote these 1,055 aphorisms, observations, and exhortations in order to enkindle within you a desire for holiness and apostolate.
Like The Way, Furrow is the fruit of St. Josemaría's rich interior life and extensive experience as a pastor. Aphoristic and perfect for meditation, Furrow was written in order to encourage and ease personal prayer. These 1000 points for spiritual reflection are directed toward the whole human person: body and soul, nature and grace. With the skillful hand of an experienced and holy priest, St. Josemaría interweaves the divine and human and helps you see how to bring them into harmony in your own life.
