CATHOLIC BOOKWORM

On the Audio Books and Podcasts Page I have added four new links. The first is to online audio of Bishop Fulton Sheen’s famous LIFE IS WORTH LIVING television series. The second link is also by Bishop Sheen and contains audio to many of his conferences and talks. I highly recommend his meditations on the […]

The day is at hand- Rom 13:12. This word day is to be taken in a four-fold sense–”The day is at hand;” the day of mercy; the day of grace; the day of justice; the day of glory. The sun that makes this a fourfold day, whose advent holy Church now celebrates. The day of […]

First, I’ve added a Morality Page on which I have linked to a couple of online works, including Bishop Fulton Sheen’s THE MORAL UNIVERSE, which is a good and easy read, like so many of his better known books.  I’ve also linked to a book entitled GUIDE FOR LIVING, which is a collection of texts […]

There is no work perhaps, of the divine Intelligence more deserving of distinguished attention, none to a greater degree illicits admiration for man’s mind, than the Church of God, the kingdom of Christ on earth, the Spouse of the Saviour. Mystically begotten of Christ our Lord when his sufferings had reached their summit, emanating from […]

I have added a Catholic Sermon page to my site. Currently you will find four volumes there which contain two sermons for every Sunday of the year, holy days, and special occasions. I have also added content to both the History and the Theology Pages. Posted by Dim Bulb.  See my other site

If you know of any pod (or video)casts not […]

What follows is an excerpt from that Compendium dealing with article 1 of the first question of the Summa. […]

As I’ve mentioned before, this site contains links to online books, articles, podcasts and lectures on things of interest to Catholics.  Today, on the Philosophy Page I have added a number of links to works by and about St Thomas Aquinas.  These include some study guides, biographies, and a version of the Summa Theologica with […]

The Saint’s famous treatise against the protestants, which got him arrested, imprisoned, and martyred, is available online.  You can access the book in its entirety on my Apologetics page.  The book consists of an English introduction, followed by the original Latin text, which is then followed by an English translation of the Ten Reasons beginning […]
