“This five cassette down to earth conversation with priests glows with Fr. Groeschel’s wit and psychological and spiritual insights into priests’ lives. He blends humor with rock hard insights in his analysis of the present situation of the world, church and priesthood. He gives wise and prudent advice on how to live the priesthood in the confusion and chaos of today’s world and Church. The Priesthood is being beset and put upon more than nay other profession in the United States by the media, phoney Catholics and other groups. Fr. Groeschel draws a clear distinction between the “Churchman” (the institutional man) and the “Disciple”—on who had a personal calling and relationship with Christ. The priest is called to live with Christ the mystery of the priesthood, rather than just be a member of some ministerial association.”

In this series of seven conferences, Fr. Benedict directs our attention to the contemplation and practical consequences of the mysteries of faith as outlined in The Catechism of the Catholic Church.

“Recorded live during one of his retreats for priests, Fr. Benedict emphasizes the need for personal reform as the basis of authentic renewal in society and in the Church. The past twenty years have been a difficult time for the priesthood, but the outpouring of the Holy Spirit at ordination continues to confer the graces necessary for the exercise of this ministry. But as Fr. Benedict explains, this gift of the Spirit must sometimes be rekindled through a repentance and conversion that are creative, genuine and intensely personal.”

Benedict discusses each of the Sacraments and how it is central to the life of the Church.”

“Internationally recognized as one of our greatest historians of the Middle East, Bernard Lewis investigates the motivations behind the September 11 attacks and the larger development of an Islamic holy war against the United States. Over time, with the decline of Islamic power and the rise of the west, Muslims interpreted the Koranic injunction of "jihad" to mean not just a struggle for God, but actual armed struggle against all "infidels" in defense of Muslim power. As Lewis explains, to many Muslims, the world was conceptually divided into two houses: the "House of Islam," where Muslim government and law prevails, and the "House of War," ruled and inhabited by infidels-notably Christians, and now more than ever, Americans. A spectacular primer on the historical roots of Islamic anti-Americanism.”

“Is there a true seeker among us who ahs not endured what St. John of the Cross first called the "dark night of the soul"-a crisis, a betrayal, a sadness seeming without end? On The way of St. John of the Cross, you will meet this towering figure-mystic, poet, healer of souls, and lover of God-and hear how this great explorer of mystical experience left and unfailing map to guide us through the "dark nights" of our own lives, one that promises eternal joy to all with the courage to follow it. Scholar and author Susan Muto offers a new and accessible approach to St. John's "secret wisdom of dark contemplation," and brings to life the full glory of his story, and the sacred ideal of mysticism and service that he embodied. Mining the four great masterpieces St. John wrote (at times on mule back, and as a prisoner in his own monastery), Muto immerses us in the transformational concepts, symbols, and metaphors at the heart of St. John's writing. His message is clear: the events which stretch our faith to the breaking point are in fact our greatest teachers. Without them, St. John taught, it is virtually impossible to know the truth of the spiritual life, and the perfection of divine love. With many vivid examples from John's own extraordinary love affair with God, here is a trustworthy and uplifting guide to dwelling in the "blessings darkness bestows on us," with The Way of St. John of the Cross.”

Offering the point of view of one deeply faithful to the tradition and teachings of the Church, Archbishop Pilarcyzk seeks to “help people savor and appreciate and nourish the gift of thinking Catholic.”…Thinking Catholic encourages us to embrace the world in which we live and change it for the better. It helps us apply the insights of the faithful believer to God and our world, to suffering and sin, to family and society at large. In closing, Pilarczky says, “thinking Catholic” means having faith. Faith is not just understanding. It includes responding to the gift of creation and to our calling to discern the will of God in our lives.”

“For many years Richard Rohr, O.F.M., has challenged individuals to seriously undertake the gospel journey and their struggle with power. In this combined set he unfolds the way to spiritual transformation for both men and women. Rohr suggests that by the second half of life almost everyone has been hurt. Great spirituality shows how to transform pain and not inflict it on another. The way of learning this wisdom has developed in separate ways for men and women. As gender roles change in contemporary times this process also changes but it promises better understanding between men and women. Rohr believes we are in the midst of dynamic spiritual growth opportunities for both gender… When men and women descend into wisdom, transformation follows. Transformation allows both to trust more the ambiguities of the ways of God and to become more compassionate and tolerant with one another. Jesus clearly understands that each person is at a different level. The gospel reveals those who have power come down and those who are excluded come up. In all religious maturity is achieved by accepting the mystery—to know truth and yet acknowledge it is beyond our full understanding. Follow Rohr’s words by using the enclosed chart.”

“Richard Rohr’s dynamic preaching has opened up the Scriptures to people worldwide. The original Great Themes of Scripture audio-cassettes sold many thousands of sets. Now after twenty-five years of study and prayer and teaching, Rohr takes a unique approach in this entirely new series. Instead of treating the Bible as a collection of isolated books, he treats it as one inspired theology. Woven through it he uncovers nine “prime ideas” that gradually unfold through both the Hebrew and Christian Scriptures: shame and separation, vengeance ad victims, low, grace, the redefinition of power, mystery, fear and intimacy, the paradox of the cross and the process of divinization or “mutual indwelling.” Rohr describes the Bible as a text in travail, containing not just conclusions, but a process which mirrors our own journey (three steps forward, two steps backward). In the three steps forward, Scripture always reveals that we are related to something infinite and that ours is an enchanted and trustworthy universe.”

“Western civilization is undergoing a crisis of meaning, says Franciscan priest Richard Rohr. In the 13th century, he tells us, Saint Francis was called by the Lord to “rebuild the Church.” Anguished by the fragmentation in the Church today, Rohr invites us to rebuild the church in the 21st century. We have lost meaning and vision, he insists; the Christian community needs to find new value, identity and purpose, through hope. Rohr says we cannot move forward without connecting to history and the personalized universe we have abandoned. The vision must integrate science and mysticism to nourish the hunger for meaning, to make sense. We need to tap into our historical roots, both European and American, to recover from spiritual exhaustion. Rohr explains limits, challenges any attitude of arrogance which insists it has all the answers and reminds us that paganism still rules in our time, with its focus on power, prestige and possessions. True religion, Rohr explains, gives us the way through the darkness of life, not around it. “There has been too much talk of loving Jesus, without suffering.” He offers remedies to grow beyond our false worldview and narrow individualism that have destroyed our values and traditions. Rohr proposes a “Reconstruction Creed” that focuses on God’s movement in history.”

Turning these events into opportunities for growth is the theme of this new 3-cassette audio retreat program. Drawing on personal stories, scriptural images and insights, as well as wisdom gained through listening to the journeys of others, Joyce Rupp offers practical and inspirational help as we face the many transitions of the human journey. Meeting God in Our Transition Times is a unified, five-part retreat. However, the talks have been structured as individual units that are not dependent on one another. Listeners may do all, a few, or if they wish, only one part. The material may be used for personal or group retreats. Groups processing various kinds of transitions will also find the material useful. A special guidebook accompanying the program suggests possibilities for a wide variety of prayer experiences and supportive activities, including keeping a journal.”

“Take this “audio retreat” with master storyteller and theologian John Shea as he explores the spirituality of Jesus found in the Gospels. You know the parables, the miracles, the teachings of Jesus—perhaps they have become even to familiar. On these tapes, Fr. Shea unpacks the center of the spirituality of the “beloved son of the most high” who “came so that you might have life and have it more abundantly.” He shows that Jesus’ words and actions were aimed at teaching us two things: how to let go of our sins and how to overcome our fear. Once this is done, Fr. Shea shows, we can enter more fully into the “eucharistic spirituality” of Jesus, which is one of constant receiving and constant giving of love.”
