With God in Russia
Recently, a friend gave me this book to read and as soon as I started it, I just couldn’t put it down. I was greatly moved by the sincere humility and love of God that you can sense in each word poured onto the page. Walter Ciszek’s profound trust in God’s Providence transpires and touched my soul, brought tears to my eyes, and I could not help but praise God who put this true disciple and fantastic example of faith on my path. I recommend this book to anyone who needs a friend to pull him forward on life’s journey...

John Henry Newman: His Inner Life
Newman's influence is still felt, even today. His personality is fascinating, his genius, his strength of conviction, his persuasiveness, his confidence in Divine Providence, his writings and his unconditional love for the Church, at the time struggling through numerous crises, offer lessons for today's world. He was at the forefront of his time, and, if I may say so, restored English Catholicism, at the time hampered by fear and anonimity, to its former status...
