God's Holy Fire: A Theology of the Icon
Lawrence Cross
An in-depth study of the icon tradition, not only from a theologically interpretive viewpoint, but also from an artistic perspective. There is much here for Western Christians to enrich their Faith life.

Nothing Short of a Miracle
Patricia Treece
The healings documented here are not hasty judgments. They are instantaneous and permanent cures for which medicine still has no explanations; cures that also meet the Vatican's stringent seven-part test of authenticity.

God's World and Our Place in It
Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen
God and His world are here explained by Archbishop Sheen, as he shows that Christianity makes good sense even to persons without a religious background. It alone can explain good and evil; it alone makes sense of our impulses to love and to sacrifice.

The Bones of Saint Peter
