I ordered a copy of Getting to Know the Church Fathers by Bryan Litfin. Below is an excerpt from an interview he gave with Susan Wunderink for Christianity Today. Having [...]

Rod Bennett is the author of the most excellent book on four of the Apostolic Fathers. It is entitled Four Witnesses: the Early Church in Her Own Words published by Ignatius Press. I highly recommend this book–we used it extensively for research on our project. Rod was a consultant on our documentary Apostolic Fathers, Handing [...]

Here is an interesting review of a new book published by Smithsonian Institute — which is neither Catholic nor Protestant, Muslim nor Jewish. I just ordered a rush copy of the book. Enjoy this article as a preface to my upcoming response to the charge that all of us Catholic apologists are liars and deceivers who [...]

. . . but I don't care. It promotes my book :-) and it is also a great article. This article discusses the many Protestants who are crossing the Tiber to join the Catholic Church. You can read the news report here.

Teresa Tomeo has a history in the media, both secular and Catholic. She understands the ins and outs and in her new book Noise she teaches us to understand the media and how to protect ourselves and our kids. I wrote an endorsement for the book which states: "By putting the media under the microscope, [...]

I think it is a crying shame. Ignatius Press should be the publisher of this new book just like they have the publisher of the Pope's earlier books (as Cardinal Ratzinger).

I have met Robert Spencer on a number of occasions — and consider him a friend. If you want one of the few “politically incorrect“ sources of information about Islam, you should read his books, visit his blog, and read his articles. For his website, his blog Jihad Watch, his books and articles, click here. I [...]

I am happy to announce an addition to the search capabilities from my Home Page. We have added a marvelous Catholic Dictionary by Fr. John Hardon. It is simple to use, quick, and very orthodox and full of information from the Bible and Catholic teaching. For example, if you look up the “Immaculate Conception,” [...]
