My Brother the Pope
Georg Ratzinger, Michael Hesemann
This book is a unique window on an extraordinary family that lived through the difficult period of National Socialism in Germany. Those interested in knowing more about the early life of Benedict XVI will not be disappointed. They will also learn of the admirable character and inspiring example of the parents, and see how the Catholic faith can shape not just a family, but an entire culture-in this case, that of Bavaria. Georg's reminiscences are detailed, intimate, and warm. And while they begin with the earliest years of the Ratzinger family, they continue right up to the present day. Also available as an e-book.

Extreme Makeover
Women Transformed by Christ, Not Conformed to the Culture
Teresa Tomeo
Popular radio host Teresa Tomeo knows from experience that the self-image of American women is being distorted by pop culture. With its emphasis on youth, physical beauty, and sexuality, the secular media is encouraging women--and girls--to see themselves primarily as sex objects. So what are women steeped in the Hollywood and Cosmo girl version of reality to do? Undergo Tomeo's Extreme Makeover. With the help of this book, they can shed the toxic messages that objectify and enslave them and embrace the truth about being a beloved daughter of God. Also available as an e-book.

So Near and Yet So Far
by Michael J. Miller

CDF-SSPX negotiations continue in writing

It is almost a year now since the conclusion of the theological talks between the Society of St. Pius X and the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. More than five months have passed since the General Superior of that priestly society received from the Vatican dicastery a "Doctrinal Preamble" which, the CDF maintains, must be "the fundamental basis for achieving full reconciliation with the Apostolic See." What progress, if any, has taken place?


Why Study Latin and Greek?
Fr. John McDermott answers that question in a recent article in Homiletic and Pastoral Review. Hint: the answer has to do with understanding and saving western civilization.
