ARE YOU ADVANCING IN YOUR SPIRITUAL LIFE?Translated from the original Spanish by Fr. Joseph Rickaby, SJ, this book is a tool to help you progress further in your spiritual life. As Jesus exhorted, "You must be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect;" as holy Church teaches, we cannot see God face-to-face until we, ourselves, are also "perfect." These three volumes present in a clear manner what constitutes perfection, and how to grow in it by the cultivation of the virtues. It is very specific and practical, and by the grace of God, you will be enabled to run in the way of God's commands, heart overflowing with the inexpressible delights of Love.Fr. Alphonsus Rodriguez, born in Spain, 1526, lived during a time when the Jesuits were elite troops in the battle for the salvation of souls. Rodriguez was a priest of exemplary virtue; in the Society he was entrusted for many years with the high responsibility of care of souls and exhorting the brethren. The present volumes are the fruit of those labors. From the author: "I reflected that it is a practice very much recommended by saints, to read something every day that may promote our spiritual advancement. This being the principal design of the following work, I have laid before you, as clearly and briefly as I was able, such things as are more essential. These will serve as a mirror wherein, if we daily view ourselves, we shall be enabled to correct our imperfections and decorate our souls as will render them most pleasing to the eyes of His Divine Majesty. I call it Practice because things are treated in such a manner as may render the practice very easy."Although addressed to his Jesuit brethren, he wrote this work to be useful to all persons who aspire to Christian perfection.PRACTICE OF PERFECTION AND CHRISTIAN VIRTUESTHREE VOLUME SETISBNs:PAPERBACK:Volume One: 978-1-945275-81-4Volume Two: 978-1-945275-82-1Volume Three: 978-1-945275-83-8HARDBACK:Volume One: 978-1-945275-78-4Volume Two: 978-1-945275-79-1Volume Three: 978-1-945275-80-7

A Man and Bishop of Extraordinary Caliber Pope Leo XIII lived during an era when the beauty, order, and moral force of the Christian world was assaulted on all sides and undermined, to the great detriment of civilized society everywhere. Read this book to help understand how our modern world came to be so corrupt. "The Gospel," the Pope wrote, "is the only code in which are found the principles of true justice, the maxim of that mutual charity which ought to unite all men as the sons of one Father and the members of the same family... It is because society has lost sight of, neglected and mistaken the religious principles that it sees itself now shaken to its very foundation. To restore those principles and to give them back their strength of influence over the human race are the only means of reestablishing society on a sound basis, and of peace, order and prosperity. It is the mission of the Church to preach and so spread these principles and the doctrines throughout the world."Modern Bishops may read this book for a holy example of how to comport themselves with the Church's enemies.
