Fire of Love, Water of Life Exploring the Meaning and the Beauty of the Easter Vigil Goffredo Boselli Translated by Barry Hudock A rich resource for all who desire a deeper understanding of this most important celebration of the Christian year.

979-8-4008-0119-8 Paperback, 112 pp., 5 x 8, $16.95 e eBook

Available March 2024 Goffredo Boselli, an advisor on the liturgy to the Italian Bishops Conference, earned his PhD at the Institut Catholique in Paris, and an MA at the Université Sorbonne, Paris. Boselli is the author of several books and articles on the topics of liturgy and spirituality, including The Spiritual Sense of the Liturgy: School of Prayer, Source of Life published by Liturgical Press.

“This book by Boselli is not a ‘how to’ book for improving celebrations, but rather seeks out the depths of why this night is so important to us. It is a book to savor and discover—and it will make us long for better actual celebrations.”

Thomas O’Loughlin, The University of Nottingham “Look, if the date and time of the next Easter Vigil in your parish is not already reserved on your personal calendar, there may not be much I can do for you.

But read this book. It will reorient your calendar. And your life—if you’re brave enough to change.”

Fr. Paul Turner, author of Glory in the Cross: Holy Week in the Third Edition of the Roman Missal 8

PMCATS24

In the church’s liturgical calendar, the Easter Vigil is far and away the richest in rites and symbols; the most moving in its beauty; the most abundant in biblical readings, prayer texts, and music; and the most demanding and even most tiring for those who take part. In Fire of Love, Water of Life, renowned liturgical theologian Goffredo Boselli focuses his remarkable knowledge and insight upon this central moment of the church’s year, helping readers understand how those who celebrate the Easter Vigil experience the very essence of Christianity.

This unforgettable book is a rich resource for presiders, homilists, liturgists, liturgical scholars, and all laity who want a more profound grasp of this most important celebration of the Christian year.

“This ground-breaking and contemporary commentary is to be savored, not read, and should be an extraordinarily valuable resource for catechumens, candidates, and sponsors especially during Lent preceding their joining the Church at Easter.”

Kevin W. Irwin, The Catholic University of America LITURGICAL PRESS

Listening Together Meditations on Synodality Timothy Radcliffe The full collection of conference talks from Pope Francis’s appointed retreat master, Timothy Radcliffe, heard first during the historic October 2023 General Assembly of the Synod on Synodality.

The Synod on Synodality held in Rome in October 2023, gathered Catholics from all over the world to listen, pray, and reflect on a new way of being church. Dominican priest Timothy Radcliffe, the official retreat master and spiritual advisor for this assembly, was appointed by Pope Francis to deliver a series of retreat talks and meditations to the delegates during the assembly of the Synod on Synodality. In Listening Together, Radcliffe’s talks not only set the spirit for this historic gathering, but now, in written form, will open up the possibility for individuals or groups to continue to reflect on this synodal journey we all share.

In Listening Together Radcliffe’s retreat talks and synod meditations encourage readers to think about conflicting hopes, different visions of the Church as home, the need for unity, friendship, and above all, the importance of listening, discernment, and mission as a means for this synodal journey to continue to succeed. In these pages, Radcliffe offers a “spirituality of listening” that can take us forward together on a journey of discovery and communion.

Pope Francis on Eucharist 100 Daily Meditations for Adoration, Prayer, and Reflection Pope Francis; Foreword by Cardinal Blase J. Cupich Eucharist is the center of our Christian life, for it forms us into who and whose we are called to be. Pope Francis on Eucharist is a collection of writings, homilies, and talks from Pope Francis, sharing a Eucharistic vision for the church where all are fed and sustained by the Body of Christ. These words from Pope Francis encourage and challenge all of us—nourished by the Eucharist—to be Christ for others.

A Holy Hour Companion Prayer, Scripture, Reflection, Ritual The practice of spending an hour in quiet prayer, in Eucharistic adoration or otherwise, has been part of the Christian tradition for centuries.

A Holy Hour Companion provides a starting point for this quiet time, offering a selection of prayers, Scripture, and spiritual writings. In addition to traditional prayers of the Church and prayers specifically for use during Eucharistic adoration.

“If multitasking defines your typical day, applying the brakes to spend a complete hour in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament may raise the question, ‘But what would I do there?’

The answer is, ‘Open this book.’”

Janet Schaeffler, OP, author, retreat and workshop presenter “Formation of the Heart is a must read for all adult Catholics, especially for those involved in adult initiation ministry. Raymond Friel gives us more than a book—it’s a retreat to be savored.”

Formation in the faith for many Catholics seems to come to a halt in the teenage years after the Sacrament of Confirmation. With the Church facing a “change of era” in a post-Covid world, now is the time for Catholics of all ages to rediscover how to grow in faith, drawing on the rich resources and traditions of the Church.

Formation of the Heart is an ideal resource for individuals who are seeking to grow in the faith using the practical resources of the Christian tradition and offers guidance for groups in schools or parishes who are engaged in formation programs.

“Raymond Friel presents a positive and hope-filled vision of the Catholic faith and how to live it. Everyone who wants to grow more deeply in their Catholic faith will benefit from reading and reflecting on Formation of the Heart. This is a book every Catholic needs to read today!”

Called on the Way The Daily Practice of Discipleship Kathleen A. Cahalan and Laura Kelly Fanucci Discipleship is not a program to be implemented or a goal to be achieved but a lifelong walk with Christ, who is the way.

Our calling by Christ to be his disciples is so fundamental to our faith that we sometimes fail to realize its meaning. What does it mean to be called? What is a disciple? In Called on the Way: The Daily Practice of Discipleship, authors Kathleen Cahalan and Laura Kelly Fanucci explore through personal stories, Scripture readings, and prayer experiences, what it means to be called a disciple “on the way.”

Each chapter includes a personal story, biblical foundation, and connections to saintly and sacramental practice. Reflection questions help identify how you and your parish community can live the life of discipleship in the time and place where God is leading you and calling you now.

“Called on the Way is a highly accessible invitation to discipleship, with Kathleen Cahalan and Laura Kelly Fanucci as gentle and wise guides. This is a faith-filled, intelligent book for individuals or small groups.”

Catholic Books Review 16

PMCATS24

In Counting the Cost, Clemens Sedmak and Kelli Reagan Hickey suggest a theological and spiritual discernment process for the everyday reality of budgeting and financial planning that explores the status of money and monetary values by reflecting on gospel passages to responsibly respond to the world and its material realities in a gospel-inspired way.

“Don’t tell me your values, show me your budget! A great line in this book! To be credible in its social teaching, the church must apply it to itself. This book is an important milestone in this endeavor.”

Msgr. Martin Schlag, University of St. Thomas “Counting The Cost is a source of great inspiration and practical ideas for everyone looking to lead their company or organization to create value through values.”

Groaning in Labor, Growing in Hope Scripture Reflections for the Hard Days of Early Motherhood Jessica Mannen Kimmet In Groaning in Labor, Growing in Hope, Jessica Mannen Kimmet, a mom of three, offers a collection of Scripture readings and reflections that speak to the challenges of transitioning to motherhood. By taking whatever scraps of time that can be spared, Kimmet hopes readers will find a healing God present in the upheavals of this season of life, and to return to prayer even though that practice will look and feel different.

This resource includes lectio divina for moms, Scripture references for overwhelming times, a litany of Saints for postpartum struggles, and more.

“Groaning in Labor is a powerful and important book. In describing the contours of these dark postpartum seasons from her own experience, Kimmet also shows what it takes to emerge from them, and in so doing, offers a true hand outstretched to anyone still in the thick of it.”

Popular Studies by Fr. George Smiga with Little Rock Scripture Study Staff

The Holy Spirit in the Bible

Angels in the Bible

Christian belief in the Holy Spirit as the Third Person of the Trinity was not officially defined by the church until the fourth century. But centuries earlier, the Hebrew Scriptures and the New Testament were already describing the action and presence of God’s Spirit.

In The Holy Spirit in the Bible, George Smiga unpacks key Scripture passages, exploring the activity of the Spirit at creation, within Israel, in the ministry of Jesus and the early church, and at the end of time. The role of the Holy Spirit in our personal and spiritual lives is also explored. 6 lessons.

The Bible is full of passages in which angelic beings are sent to accomplish God’s will. Angels speak for God, direct the course of nations, and protect God’s people. They worship God and deliver God’s judgment. In Angels in the Bible, George Smiga examines some of the Bible’s most fascinating passages about angels, exploring their ministry on God’s behalf and drawing insights for our own spiritual lives. Because angels are mediators of God’s presence and action, studying angels is studying God. 6 lessons.

Pastoral Guide to Pope Francis’s Desiderio Desideravi Rita Ferrone

“Desiderio desideravi marks a significant milestone in the modern Catholic liturgical reform and Rita Ferrone is one of the best commentators on the liturgy today. This guide will be very helpful in assisting individuals and groups in unpacking the richness of Pope Francis’s liturgical vision.”

John F. Baldovin, SJ, Boston College School of Theology and Ministry “Rita Ferrone urges us to see our coming to the liturgy as a response to the Spirit moving within us. Her is a faithful reflection of the baptismal ecclesiology of Vatican Council II.” Gerard Austin, OP, Barry University “Pope Francis’s Desiderio desideravi, with Rita Ferrone’s lucid commentary, should be required reading for every presider—and everyone who wants to deepen their grasp of what we do at Mass, and why we do it. Ferrone deftly takes us to the heart of Pope Francis’s teaching: the astonishment, wonder, and awe we should experience before the paschal mystery.”

Father Michael G. Ryan St. James Cathedral, Seattle

Be Renewed A Guide to the Sacrament of Reconciliation Paul Turner

“Be Renewed offers more than a one-time experience of this sacrament. This presentation of the extended history shows the efforts through the ages to make this an opportunity of spiritual and personal change, growth, and renewal. It is an excellent resource for faith formation for all age groups in the Church.”

Sister Lois Paha, OP, DMin Director of Formation and Liturgy for the Diocese of Tucson “Fr. Paul Turner’s Be Renewed is an essential resource for all who work in pastoral ministry.

Practical, informative, and engaging, this book provides the detailed and gentle guidance needed to celebrate the sacrament well.”

Matthew Reichert Director of the Center for Learning Oregon Catholic Press “Once again Father Paul Turner has expertly blended fine scholarship with keen pastoral skill.

Be Renewed offers much understanding, insight, and encouragement to those approaching the sacrament ‘from either side of the screen.’”

Contemporary Topics in

Welcome All as Christ

Reimagining Parish Hospitality John T. Kyler “In Welcome All as Christ, John Kyler offers parish ministers a practical, accessible, and deeply valuable resource about the need for hospitality in parish life. With empathy and honesty, Kyler cuts through the noise, framing the work of welcome as an urgent and joyful task, the responsibility of all.”

Susan Bigelow Reynolds Candler School of Theology Emory University

“John Kyler’s excellent book provides readers with accessible resources from Scripture, papal teaching, contemporary experiences, and the best of the Christian tradition to support this call to be people of encounter and communities of hospitality.”

Daniel P. Horan, OFM Saint Mary’s College in Notre Dame, Indiana

Becoming the Good News

A New Approach to Parish Evangelization Michael J. Sanem “Invaluable for those in parish ministry, this resource will help every Christian encounter Jesus Christ where he otherwise goes overlooked.”

Paul Turner, pastor of the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in Kansas City, Missouri

“Michael J. Sanem has given us a vision of evangelization that is not a recruitment process but a form of physical and spiritual presence.

He restores a contemplative dimension to evangelization that is often overlooked—those moments when, as he phrases it gracefully, ‘Even our silence can evangelize.’”

Michael Centore, editor of Today’s American Catholic

John T. Kyler is a Catholic author, educator, and speaker whose work focuses on the intersection of liturgy, justice, and healthy vulnerability in pastoral ministry. An instructor in the Emmaus Institute for Ministry Formation and a regular contributor to several pastoral magazines and journals, John holds a master of education from the University of Notre Dame and a master of theological studies from Saint John’s University.

Michael J. Sanem lives in Kansas City with his wife and three sons. A former Bernardin Scholar at Catholic Theological Union, he is the author of Your Church Wants to Hear from You: What Is the Synod on Synodality? and works in evangelization ministry at the Church of the Nativity in Leawood, Kansas. He writes regularly at incarnationiseverywhere.com.

Parish Leadership series Contemporary Topics in Parish Leadership is a series that addresses timely realities in parish leadership. Written primarily for parish staff, leadership teams, and parish councils, each topic affirms the pastoral realities facing today’s church leaders in a way that is engaging, relevant, and most important, accessible.

“An absolutely essential book for parish ministry to LGBTQ people written by one of the leading experts in the field.”

James Martin, SJ Author of Building a Bridge

New Ways and Next Steps Developing Parish LGBTQ+ Ministry Francis DeBernardo New Ways and Next Steps is designed to help pastoral ministers develop LGBTQ+ ministry in their local parishes. Whether a parish is just initiating a ministry or already has one that needs fresh ideas, Francis DeBernardo brings pastoral ministers on a journey of discernment to help them discover the best path LGBTQ+ ministry should take in their local communities.

Francis DeBernardo has served since 1996 as executive director of New Ways Ministry, a national Catholic ministry of justice and reconciliation for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer Catholics and the wider church community. He is the author of Mychal Judge: Take Me Where You Want Me to Go published by Liturgical Press.

978-0-8146-6860-3 Paperback, 160 pp., 5 x 7, $16.95 e eBook

“Francis DeBernardo offers a wonderfully broad and eminently practical guide to the complex topic of ministry with and to the LGBTQ community within the Church.

Every parish that wishes to fulfill its evangelization and pastoral goals should study and implement the contents of this book.”

Bishop John Stowe, OFM Conv Diocese of Lexington, Kentucky “Frank DeBernardo mines the riches of the church’s genuine—if sometimes ambivalent—affirmation of queer Catholics to help readers create ministries of welcome in their own parishes. Follow his path to a dynamic pastoral plan!”

Cristina L.H. Traina, Fordham University

Racism and Structural Sin Confronting Injustice with the Eyes of Faith Conor M. Kelly Foreword by Carolyn Y. Woo

Reforming the Church Global Perspectives Edited by Declan Marmion and Salvador Ryan Epilogue by Kristin Colberg

“Although racism impacts us profoundly, it remains a sensitive and polarizing topic that is difficult to broach in many faith communities.

Conor Kelly provides an opening. Racism and Structural Sin is both nuanced and accessible, useful for faith formation as well the seminary, undergraduate, and high school classroom.”

Joseph S. Flipper, University of Dayton

“This is a fine collection of essays by experts in ecclesiology and pastoral theology, and is a true gift for the church as we journey together in the synod on synodality. A must read for pastors, theologians, and all who are participating in the global synod.”

Emily Reimer-Barry, PhD University of San Diego

“Conor M. Kelly’s book stands out for clarity, simplicity, and accessibility; and it remarkably engages our daily experiences on racial inequality in America. This is the book for instruction and faith formation.”

Ferdinand Okorie, Editor-in-chief U.S. Catholic

“These eleven essays—each expert and from a different perspective and from across the globe—are a snapshot of our problems; and a guide to what we must confront if the synodal process is to be more than fine words.”

Thomas O’Loughlin, Professor Emeritus of Historical Theology, The University of Nottingham

A Retreat with Thomas Merton A Seven-Day Spiritual Journey Esther de Waal New Foreword by Bonnie B. Thurston

The celebrated spiritual writer Thomas Merton remains one of the most influential voices of our day. His many books are considered modern spiritual classics as he is credited with introducing the riches of the monastic tradition to many. Here, Esther de Waal devises a seven-day personal or group retreat program using excerpts from Thomas Merton’s writings and a selection of the photography for which he was also renowned. She creates a retreat that can be made at home, at a retreat center, on vacation, or over a week or longer.

“Esther de Waal gives the coordinates of Merton’s own map for the journey, as well as a personal record of her use of his directions in this engaging summary of Merton’s spirituality.”

The Longest Psalm Day-by-Day Responses to Divine Self-Revelation Michael Casey, OCSO

“By reflecting on the meaning of each of the Psalm’s 176 verses, Casey shows us how God’s Torah can form and renew our lives today. Here is a volume to which you can turn for spiritual nourishment and guidance.”

Frank J. Matera, Professor Emeritus, The Catholic University of America “God’s self-revelation in Scripture can be known by us through lectio. Fr. Michael Casey has done the homework. All we have to do is turn the page.”

Sr. Meg Funk, OSB, Our Lady of Grace Monastery, Beech Grove, Indiana “The long, repetitive Psalm 119, like an apparently barren landscape, yields surprising variety and abundance to the practiced, patient gaze. To read this commentary is both to appreciate the psalm and to assimilate rewarding habits of close reading.”

Elias Dietz, OCSO, Abbey of Gethsemani 979-8-4008-0000-9 Paperback, 328 pp., 5½ x 8½, $29.95 e eBook
