Father Leo Pyzalski, C.SS.R., originally published The Holy Will of God in 1947 through Holy Legion Office, Illinois. He maintained that any type of perfection or sanctity that is not closely related to the will of God is superficial, doubtful, and illusionary. He also stressed the fact that true devotion is always the result of continual prayer and earnest perseverance. Father Pyzalski's The Holy Will of God received the Nihil Obstat, Imprimatur, and Imprimi Potest upon publication, the latter declaration being given a year before. The book was reprinted by TAN in 1991.

The modern crisis stems from a great divorce—a divorce between those who have the Truth and those who do not. In Philosophies at War, Sheen addresses the American people on the themes of government and politics not only as a bishop but also as a conscious citizen. He writes of war and revolution, the need of an absolute (God) and the roots of democracy, patriotism, and peace. He shows that the culture war is not merely political and economic but also theological.Sheen warns that dangerous political currents are reactions against the excesses and defects of the secularist and materialist culture at large, the result of society turning into nothing but a crisscross of individual egotism. He brilliantly summarizes the false claims of recent totalitarian ideologies such as Marxist socialism, Nazism, fascism, and more. Of these dangers, Sheen explains what they have in common: they “demand power over the total man—the whole man, body and soul, and aim at control over the most intimate regions of the spirit.”&#160;Sheen is further critical of certain aspects of the Industrial Revolution and Liberalism which have isolated man from all responsibility to the common good. He laments, “Such is the essence of our secularist culture: the supremacy of the individual man. In this way man is severed from his roots in God, his roots in law and his roots in the brotherhood of man, which can naturally lead to anarchy and the oppression of the weak and the unfortunate.” For anyone seeking to understand the current ideologies that seek to destroy our world, Philosophies at War will be your guide.

Escape the Kingdom of Man
In this encouraging, easy-to-read book, Father Jeffrey Kirby offers hope to the tired, overburdened, and unhappy. He reminds us that we are made for&nbsp;happiness.&nbsp;But he goes beyond that, showing us the path to&nbsp;achieving&nbsp;happiness. It&rsquo;s not a new path. In fact, Jesus showed us the way in the Beatitudes, but&nbsp;Kingdom of Happiness&nbsp;reveals how these aren&rsquo;t merely nice sayings, they are powerful ways of&nbsp;living.
Fr. Kirby first identifies the sources of unhappiness: the false promises&mdash;the anti-beatitudes&mdash;of a fallen, busy world. He explains how these anti-beatitudes, far from leading to happiness, tear down and rob us of&nbsp;happiness. Kirby leads the reader out of this darkness, pointing us to Jesus Christ as the saint-tested and centuries-proven source of authentic peace, true joy, and radical&nbsp;happiness.
To unveil the path to&nbsp;happiness&nbsp;in Jesus Christ, Kirby does not rely on emotional arguments or soft spirituality. He turns to the boldness of the Lord&rsquo;s Beatitudes, the real promises to true&nbsp;happiness. He teaches about the love, power, and self-control within them by showing their practical, life-application in today&rsquo;s world.&nbsp;
Kingdom of Happiness&nbsp;shows that the Beatitudes are not a self-help guide or a boring list of eight more things to do, but are a series of grace-filled, life-giving promises that excite our souls and point us along a way of life that assures us of true, lasting&nbsp;happiness.

Kingdom of Happiness
