Stories about Purgatory (30 Days for the Holy Souls)
Originally arranged as 30 Days for the Holy Souls, this book was written to engrave on the minds and hearts of its readers an indelible understanding of Purgatory: first, that it exists; second, that the souls detained there suffer long and excruciating pains, likely even of the same nature as those of Hell, and thus that they desperately need our prayers, sacrifices, and Mass intentions; and third, that while we are still living, we ourselves should strive mightily to avoid Purgatory.We read in St. Matthew's Gospel, "Be ye therefore perfect, as also your heavenly Father is perfect" (Matthew 5:48). Yet we know that none of us is really perfect and that few human beings die in a state of soul with all their past sins atoned for during life. Most people whose souls are saved, therefore, end up detained for a time in Purgatory. Some reports say that the passage of "time" (though they have passed out of time, in a fashion) in these souls' perception is slowed to a hundredth or less of what we on earth experience. Thus, the agony and languishing of the Poor Souls often seems almost interminable.
Stories about Purgatory and What They Reveal: 30 Days for the Holy Souls will impress upon your heart a healthy and holy respect for the sufferings endured by the Holy Souls, such that you will ever after remember them in your prayers and Masses. It will teach you also to strive to rectify your own life, that you may avoid Purgatory altogether—or at the very worst, spend very little "time" there before being united to God in Heaven. Belief in Purgatory is truly Catholic and consoling; it is a reality whose truth has been buttressed by many famous true stories, recorded here, of the sufferings undergone by the Poor Souls, plus their gratitude toward and wonderful aid for those who help them.

Way to Happiness Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen DD
Every human person seeks happiness, but few find it, because they have not discovered the source of all happiness: God. In Way to Happiness, Futon Sheen reflects on the most fundamental aspects of our lives: love, politics, motherhood, work, teens, forgiveness, rest, meditation, and more.
In a culture stricken with anxiety, boredom, despair, and fear, Sheen desires to reignite healing, hope, and contentment in the reader. While the secular world holds the mistaken belief that hunger for infinity can be satisfied by an infinity of material things, Sheen warns that they really wish for the infinity of divine love. Addressing the philosophy of pleasure, Sheen reminds the reader of the centrality of self-discipline and detachment.
Communism and the Conscience of the West Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen DD
In Communism and the Conscience of the West, Sheen explains the problems with society stemming from socialism and communism, which continue to infect universities and political discourse today. This timeless book exposes communism’s defects, its attitude toward the family, the decline of historical liberalism, and the rise of the antireligious spirit that pervades our world.
Readers will be impressed as Sheen diagnoses the issues facing our once peaceful cities, with history being put on trial, scrubbed, rewritten, and explained in terms of class hate. While communism destroys human freedom, Sheen illustrates how man is free as a result of two guarantees: one economic and the other spiritual. The economic enables man to call something his own which is outside of himself. The spiritual is the soul, which makes man independent of an earthly tyrant or a political dictator. In short, man’s soul is his own on the inside, as his property is his own on the outside.
The Desecrators: Defeating the Cancel Culture Mob and Reclaiming One Nation Under God Deal W. Hudson, Matt Schlapp
The enemy is no longer hidden in the dark but instead operates in broad daylight. Its attacks on Americans are clear and intensifying: cancel culture, wokeness, public shaming, urban violence, “whiteness,” and critical race theory. The enemy also seeks to undermine the sacredness of human life, failing to provide basic protection for the lives of the unborn. This enemy is called the Desecrators. The Desecrators tear down not only monuments but human nature, the biblical-natural conception of marriage, the family, parental rights, fact-based education, traditional moral values, and the Church.
Benedict XVI: Defender of the Faith
Pope Benedict XVI will go down in Church history as one of the greatest popes. This book is a heartfelt defence of Pope Benedict’s words and works and a tribute to his life and legacy.
Fatima: The Apparition that Changed the WorldJean HeimannHardcover
Few place-names in the Christian world conjure up such powerful images and associations as that of this humble town in Portugal. For it was there that Our Lady appeared to three shepherd children beginning in 1917—apparitions that are intimately linked to pious Catholic practices such as devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, the five first Saturdays, and daily recitation of the Rosary with the Fatima prayer, as well as miracles attested to even by non-believers, such as the “day the sun danced.” The Virgin’s message, as it always is, was penance. But she also predicted world historical events, such as the rise and fall of communism, the Second World War, and the attempted assassination of Pope St. John Paul II. She promised refuge in her Immaculate Heart to all who approach her—a promise extended, and urgently needed, today.
The Devil is Afraid of MeGabriele Amorth“We can do nothing against you because you are too protected!”So declared a frustrated host of devils to Father Gabriele Amorth, the priest exorcist in Rome who spent thirty years battling the Devil and his minions by performing more than sixty thousand exorcisms. All the while, he deftly used modern media to awaken our disbelieving modern culture — and even the Church — to the reality of the Devil and his nefarious actions at all times and everywhere.Here you will find out about his daily schedule, what his exorcism room looked like, and how various devils responded to his bold practice.
An Exorcist: More StoriesGabriele AmorthFr. Gabriele Amorth, the renowned chief exorcist of Rome, expands on some of the key topics of his previous book, covering important details about demonic or occult issues. He uses concrete examples from his own experiences and those of other exorcists to illustrate and substantiate his points. Since satanic sects, occultism, séances, fortune-tellers and astrologers are so widespread today, Father Amorth asks the question why is it so difficult today to find an exorcist, or a priest who is an expert in this field?
The Blessed Eucharist: Our Greatest Treasure Fr Michael Muller CSsRFr.

Humility and the Elevation of the Mind to God (hardcover)This classic work from Thomas à Kempis, author of The Imitation of Christ, is now available in English for the first time. It is a simple truth that, without the virtue of humility, we cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven. It simply cannot be done. Just as pride is the root and source of all sin, so is humility the foundational virtue in which all other virtues must be grounded if they are to bear fruit. Ever since Lucifer’s pride prompted his rebellion from God and Heaven, it has been continuously forgotten that only humility can lead us back to Heaven and union with God. Pride, as we know, is the broad and easy road to Hell. Unfortunately, our world has lost the sense of sin because it has lost the sense of God and virtue, especially humility.
The Devil and Karl Marx: Communism’s Long March of Death, Deception, and Infiltration Paul Kengor "Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them…For we are not contending against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly place.” — Ephesians 5:11-6:12 In 1837, Karl Marx wrote: “My soul, once true to God, / is chosen for Hell.”While many think the danger of communism has passed, The Devil and Karl Marx proves otherwise. In this book, Paul Kengor describes the demonic nature of communist ideology and how it still exists in our world. Kengor covers all the things you need to know about the present danger of Marxism, including:
Karl Marx’s influence historically
The Bolshevik war on religion and the Church’s response
The Church’s teachings on Atheism and Communism
The way Marxism has infiltrated and manipulated members of the Church
The way communism influences radicals today
The Dogma of HellFr. F. X. Schouppe, SJ
“The Dogma of Hell is the most terrible truth of our faith. There is a Hell. We are as sure of it as of the existence of God, the existence of the sun. Nothing in fact, is more clearly revealed than the Dogma of Hell.” —Fr. François Xavier Schouppe, S.J.
Many people have contemplated the joys of Heaven, but few Catholics take the dogma of Hell as seriously as they should.
Hell is certainly not a topic to be taken lightly, and renowned French theologian Fr. Schouppe, S.J., gives the topic the thoroughness it deserves. Detachment from sin is difficult, but his explanations of the Church’s teachings on Hell show you why it is so important.
Hell, the necessary consequence of sin, demonstrates the horror of sin and what it does to our souls.
If you can begin to understand the terror of Hell, then you can also begin to free yourself from sinful habits.
The War of the Antichrist
With the Church and Christian Civilization
Catholics have always known that Satan wages a constant war against the Church. Over the last three centuries we have witnessed a far more radical onslaught than ever before, leading to a rapid and universal apostasy among formerly Christian nations. Who or what is behind this greatest of all apostasies from the Catholic Church?
Though written over 130 years ago, this book remains stunningly relevant. It covers a plot to de-Christianize the world through the separation of Church and state.
A Year with Angels
This book invites you to discover the authority and strength of the Heavenly Host. Angels embody virtues, graces, and knowledge of the Truth because they stand before the very Throne of God. Among the Angels' responsibilities are governing the universe and the movements of nature, defending creation from the attacks of the devil, and acting as messengers of God to mankind.
Saints who saw hell
$27.95
Since the Early Church, Catholic saints and other visionaries have reported horrific scenes of eternal punishment. Dozens of saints throughout history have described the terrors of Hell, and relayed the horror of being separated from God for eternity so that we may see for ourselves and repent.
In Saints Who Saw Hell, you’ll find …
The scriptural witness to the reality of hell, including the warnings of Jesus, the prophets, and the Apostles
Scenes from the second-century Apocalypse of Peter, the oldest surviving Christian vision of hell
Ancient reports collected by Pope St. Gregory the Great
Medieval accounts from St. Bede, the voyage of St. Brendan, St. Hildegard of Bingen, St. Catherine of Siena, and St. Frances of Rome
Witnesses to hell from the time of the Catholic Reformation, such as St. Teresa of Avila, Blessed Maria de Agreda, and Blessed Richard of St. Anne
Visions from later centuries, such as those of St. Veronica Giuliani, Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich, St. John Bosco, the children of Fatima, and St. Faustina Kowalska
A case of authenticity. This is a hard to put down easy to read book guaranteed to interest everyone. Despite arguments to the contrary it provides convincing proof--that the Shroud of Turin is the actual burial cloth of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
It’s well researched and is backed up with scientific and historical facts. Makes for a great gift!
Paul Kengor:
This book focuses on Church-approved stigmatists and their visions, revelations, and prophecies and warnings. In some cases, the prophecies and warnings relate to the End Times and Second Coming of Christ. That includes the striking revelations of the likes of Saint Faustina (1905-38), the first canonized saint of the new millennium. One might rightly interpret the mark of the stigmata (sometimes invisible stigmata, as in the cases of Saints Faustina and Catherine of Siena) as a heavenly/Church affirmation of these saints’ authenticity, likewise adding a certain authenticity to their claimed visions.
Notably, not all of these stigmatic saints had visions of the Final Days. They need not to have changed history. Some of the special visions were along the lines of St. Francis’s transformational conversations with Jesus at the San Damiano cross, which nonetheless had a significant larger purpose: “Francesco,” said Jesus, “ripara la mia Chiesa.” (“Francis, repair my Church.”)
Joan Carroll Cruz: Eucharist Miracles
There is no greater gift that God has given His Church than this: that the Eucharist is a visible sign of the self-sacrificing love that continues to save the world from sin.
On many occasions throughout the history of the Catholic Church, God has provided us with visible proof of the reality of the Presence of Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist.
In Eucharistic Miracles, Joan Carroll Cruz documents 36 miracles that occurred from 800 A.D. to the present day. This book tells of consecrated Hosts that have turned to human flesh, bled, levitated, and have become hard as flint when received by a person in mortal sin. It details the official investigations that have been made into these miracles by scientists throughout the world, as well as the locations of the miracles that can still be venerated today. Photographs of the miracles, the churches they took place in, the art they inspired, and the people involved are included—these add the final touch to a comprehensive, detailed, and extraordinary overview of these Eucharistic miracles.
The Liberty Threat Attack on Religious Freedom
The Liberty Threat is both a chilling wake-up and a clear call to action for Christians everywhere.
Author James Tonkowic Dmin
Americans are losing what are supposed to be constitutionally promised rights at an alarming pace. The Founding Fathers understood the overriding essentiality of religious practice unimpeded by governmental authority, but time and vast cultural change has eroded this from the consciences of modern politicians. The struggle for the right to worship freely has been present since the time of the Roman Empire. By looking at how the Ancient Christian world relates to the failures of our own Supreme Court, it is possible to see what has led to so much government interference in personal religious beliefs in the name of "equality." As we watch America teeter ever closer to the brink of moral collapse and prejudice against religion becomes even more institutionalized, one question always surfaces: How can we stop this? In The Liberty Threat, James Tonkowich explores the history of Christian philosophy from the Church's infancy through the birth of America and how it influenced religious liberty. With powerful examples fresh from today's courts, Tonkowich illustrates just how the rigid separation of Church and state has created a world that is hostile to true faith.
