No Greater Love – The Martyrdom of the Ulma Family

by Jean Olwen Maynard

Under the Nazi occupation of Poland during World War II, Jews were indiscriminately arrested, imprisoned, and killed. Christians who helped them hide or escape placed themselves in the same peril. Josef and Wiktoria Ulma, who, guided by the parable of the Good Samaritan, which was underlined in red ink in the family Bible, sheltered a Jewish family in their village of Markowa. As a result, in 1944, Josef, Wiktoria, and their seven small children – one not yet born – were murdered by the Nazis. This biography tells the story of the heroic virtue and sacrifice that lead to their beatification.

Artificial Intelligence

by Fr Andrew Pinsent, Sean Biggins

Anyone online comes into contact with Artificial Intelligence, or AI. It determines search engine results, curates what you see on social media, and guides how you click through websites. Recent refinements in AI mean that it can compose text and produce images faster, sometimes better, than humans. Chatbots are used for customer service and online diagnostic tools, and increasingly as social surrogates. The better AI mimics human activity, the more questions it raises: Is AI smarter than humans? Could it ever become human? Could it replace us? What do the advances in Artificial Intelligence mean for society, the Church, and the world?

St Therese of Lisieux – The Way of Confidence and Love

by Jennifer Moorcroft

St Therese of Lisieux lived a quiet, humble, and very short life. Her writings on the “Little Way” – the spiritual maxim to do little things with great love – were published only after her death, but have had a profound influence on the spirituality of the faithful, and led to her being named a Doctor of the Church. In this deeply personal biography, Jennifer Moorcroft paints a vivid and relatable picture of the saint who somehow became smaller and simpler as she grew.

Elisabeth Leseur

by Jennifer Moorcroft

Elisabeth Leseur’s life was full of hardships and cause for sadness. Her husband, Felix, had lost faith and actively worked to destroy hers. Nonetheless, she continued to love him devotedly and to pray for him. She was a great letter writer and diarist, and, unbeknownst to her husband, recorded profound spiritual insights in her journals and correspondence. After Elisabeth’s untimely death from cancer, Felix finally converted to the Faith by reading and cataloguing her writings. This book offers meditations on select passages from Elisabeth’s letters and journals to share her example of profound and patient love.

The Star of Bethlehem

by Fr Douglas McGonagle

The imagery of the Christmas story traditionally shows a giant star hovering above the stable in Bethlehem like a pin in a map, guiding the wisemen to pay homage to the infant Christ. The star has been a source of fascination to many: was it simply a bright light in the sky? A planet or comet? How did it lead the Magi to a tiny village in Judea?

Fr Douglas McGonagle was an astronomer before he was ordained a priest. When he came across a book by the late Dr Michael Molnar, he was drawn into the mystery of the Star and fascinated by how Molnar followed clues from an ancient coin depicting a leaping ram and a star through the arcane workings of ancient astrology to explain the celestial sign that St Matthew writes about in his Gospel. In this book, Fr McGonagle builds on Dr Molnar’s scholarship to show the importance of the Star of Bethlehem in how the story of the Nativity was told, how its meaning came to be obscured to more modern readers of Matthew, and how even for Christians today “the heavens proclaim the glory of God” (Ps 19:1).

Overcoming Distraction in Prayer

by Fr Ed Broom

Prayer can be a struggle. Whether it’s because of busyness at work or school, the chores and clamour of family life, intrusive worries and anxieties that steal away our peace, or ever-present digital distractions, like social media with its endlessly scrollable feeds, many of us struggle to form a habit of prayer. Fr Ed Broom is here to help Catholics learn to pray. In this book, he teaches us to recognise the causes of distraction in our lives and gives simple, practical advice on how to overcome them to speak to God with our whole heart and mind.

Living Your Vocation (Even If You Don’t Know What It Is Yet)

by Fr Nicholas Crowe, OP

St John Henry Newman famously wrote that God endowed us with “some definite purpose”: an individual vocation or sacred mission. This sounds like great news until the saint adds that we might never know what this mission is, at least not in this life. How on earth can you do something, and do it well, if you don’t even know what it is? Fr Nicholas Crowe, OP is on hand to rescue us from confusion and despair. He explains how everyone (including you!) can live a life that is holy and pleasing to God, even if you don’t know what God wants you to do, how to do it, or what’s going on at all.
