Sadly, many classical works of literature are poorly made and tainted with woke ideology in the introduction, footnotes, and explainers that distort the text itself. Thankfully, the Ignatius Press Critical Editions enable Catholics and all lovers of good literature to get their hands on a quality version of these great books. These books are not only well made but contain helpful introductions and footnotes to really help the reader get the most out of reading these texts. 
Today, Joseph Pearce, the series editor, joins Andrew Peteprin to reveal the inspiration behind these texts, why every Catholic should have them on their selves, and what works will be published next.

Cardinal Robert Sarah was the prefect of the congregation for divine worship from 2014 until 2021, and he has now published a new book "Song of the Lamb" which outlines his thoughts on the spiritually rich tradition of Catholic sacred music. This book was written in dialogue with Peter Carter as the two trace the history of sacred music in the Church and outline the guidelines for sacred music today.
We are very grateful that Peter Carter joined Andrew Peteprin to discuss this momentous work and his active role in putting it together.

Guidelines for Sacred Music at Mass w/ Peter Carter

This year we celebrate the 800th Anniversary of Aquinas’s birth. Known for his holiness, intelligence, and immense love for God, Aquinas is often considered one of the greatest thinkers of all time. But today Dr. Kreeft joins Ben Eriksen to discuss why he thinks Aquinas is the greatest philosopher and theologian.
Dr. Kreeft highlights Aquinas’s depth and clarity of thought, his synthesis of previous scholars, and his integration of faith and reason. While many are intimidated to read Aquinas, Dr. Kreeft points out how approachable he is for everyday thinkers and how intellectually as well as spiritually enriching his writings are for those that read him.

A Timely New Catholic Novel w/ David Pinault

Are you a priest or discerning a vocation to the priesthood or know somebody who is discerning? Then this is the book for you—“Distributed Like Bread” (pre-order for release at 3.2.26) https://ignatius.com/distributed-like-bread-dlbp/?searchid=0&amp;search_query=distributed
Hans Urs von Balthasar is well known for his great contributions to theology, but few know of his practical thoughts on priesthood and discernment. Therefore, in today’s episode, Dr. Jonathan Ciraulo and Andrew Petiprin discuss Fr. Balthasar and how he integrated his scholarly life and his priestly vocation. Dr. Ciraulo points out that Fr. Balthasar never received any formal education in theology beyond his time at the seminar and he sought to remain a student chaplain instead of an academic position. This kept him grounded in his theology and uniquely fit to guide priests and those in the process of discernment.
Dr. Ciraulo highlights Fr. Balthasar’s humility, his intellectual curiosity, and his openness to God. They also discuss Balthasar’s thoughts on priestly celibacy and donatism—the heresy that claims that validity of the sacraments depends on the virtue of the priest. This insightful discussion and corresponding book “Distributed Like Bread” will truly help give all people a greater appreciation for this supernatural vocation.

Hans Urs von Balthasar on Priestly Life and Discernment w/ Dr. Jonathan Ciraulo

It is often said that one can find God in nature, but few have explored the theology behind such a common statement. Join us as Fr. John Nepil talks with Andrew Petiprin about the theological lessons and underpinnings of mountain hiking, which he details in his new book To Heights and Unto Depths. This book and the ensuing conversation artfully weave together theological insights and real-world experience.
 
Fr. Nepil and Andrew examine the spiritual benefits of the outdoors, both the joys of reaching the summit and the lows felt during arduous hours hiking. They also discuss the modern crisis of manhood, the responsibility of leadership, and how the works of theologians such as Von Balthasar, Cardinal Ratzinger, and Luigi Giussani can reveal spiritual wisdom found on the trail. For those who love the outdoors or theology, this episode is a must watch!

How to Make Beautiful Catholic Art w/ Timothy Jones

The hero of the new novel Death in Black and White is a Catholic priest and classic film buff who finds himself caught in a web of crime, sin, and double-crossings that rivals anything found in his favorite film-noir detective movies. The book’s author, Fr. Michael Brisson—also a Catholic priest and classic film buff—may not have real-life experience of being in the clutches of the Mob, but he does know the unique way a priest is privy to some of life’s hardest and darkest moments.
In this episode, Andrew Petiprin speaks with Brisson about the graces on offer in the sacraments, the Catholic faith’s unflinching realism about human nature and our sinful proclivities—and how a film-noir tinged crime novel can be the perfect vehicle for exploring these themes and more.

Mature and Sensitive Topics Discussed in This Episode
Today, more than ever, we are suffering from the ramifications of the sexual revolution that began over 50 years ago. And in this episode, Dr. Nathaniel Blake joins Andrew Petiprin to discuss why the Church’s teachings on human sexuality are correct and why abandoning them has led people away from true human flourishing.
Dr. Blake addresses many of today’s hot button issues ranging from abortion, sex outside of marriage, homosexuality, and transgenderism. He emphasizes that by embracing God’s mercy and returning to a traditional understanding of human sexuality will ultimately lead to greater happiness and fulfillment.

Pope Pius XI once remarked, “Spiritually, we [Catholics] are all Semites,” and, as Saint Paul writes in Romans, in a sense, Christians are Jews by adoption. In today’s episode, Andrew Petiprin is joined by Professors Angela Costley and Gavin D’Costa, who examine the question of Jewish–Catholic relations from every angle. They not only discuss how the Church is uniquely opposed to antisemitism, but also how the Church is deeply rooted in Judaism. Finally, they discuss the reality of Hebrew Catholics and their role in the Body of Christ.

Can You Be a Jewish Catholic? With Dr. Costley and Dr. D’Costa

The current crisis of masculinity is rampant in our society, but few have responded to this cultural moment like Mike Pacer in his new book “Prayers for Catholic Men.” Instead of encouraging men to simply gut it out and take responsibility, Mike encourages men to fall on their knees, and he provides them with the resources to encounter God in a meaningful and profound way. “Prayers for Catholic Men” not only teaches men how to pray, but it provides many unique and personal prayers that men at any stage in their life will resonate with.
In this episode, Andrew Petiprin sits down with Mike Pacer to talk about the common struggles men encounter when praying and what resources they can use to strengthen their spiritual life.

122 Special Episode: Why Catholics Should Kneel

Since Vatican II, the use of Latin in Mass has radically decline. . . . But in this episode, Fr. Fessio reviews what Vatican II said about using Latin at Mass.

What Vatican II Actually Said About Using Latin at Mass

Fr. Fessio reads a passage from Miracles by C.S. Lewis to explain the proper use of the historical critical method.

With the announcement that Pope Francis will be consecrating Russia and Ukraine to the Immaculate Heart of Mary later this week, the words and message of Our Lady of Fatima—and some of the controversies to which they gave rise—are in the news. Paul Senz, author of FATIMA: 100 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE MARIAN APPARITIONS, explains the history and context of the upcoming consecration, and addresses some of the misconceptions that persist about previous consecrations, particularly those enacted by Pope John Paul II in the 1980s.

Fatima and the Consecration of Russia - What You Need to Know

153: What Happened to the Sequences?

Fr. Fessio recalls a conversation he had with an atheist student where he explained the difference between how an atheist sees the world and how a Christian views creation.

God makes things—constantly. And he loves it. Why don't we?

2: The God of Creativity

Drawing on his experience of forty years as a psychiatrist, Dr. Richard Fitzgibbons presents twelve habits that can foster healing and growth in Catholic marriages. This book helps couples to identify and resolve the major emotional conflicts that weaken their relationships and hurt their marriages.
 


Habits for a Healthy Marriage is unique because it draws on the field of positive psychology, which focuses on growth in virtues. Each chapter names a common marital problem along with a particular virtue that can help couples to overcome that problem. It shows that the road to healing is paved with forgiveness, not only between spouses but also within their families of origin. Along the way, the author incorporates the luminous writing of Saint John Paul II on marriage and the timeless wisdom of the Catholic Church.


Whether you are newly engaged, recently married, or married for many years, the conflict-resolving strategies described in this book—the habits of a healthy marriage—can help you to protect your relationship from the emotional storms that often lead to quarreling and mistrust, and sometimes to separation and divorce.

Author interview with Dr. Richard Fitzgibbons on his book, "Habits of a Healthy Marriage"

In a society that often claims to value the voices of the marginalized, one group that find themselves frequently silenced by the very people claiming to speak for them are detransitioners—men and women who have gone down the road of “gender transition,” only to change their minds, embrace their biological sex, and reverse course.
In this episode, Andrew Petiprin speaks with Jennifer Lahl, a nurse and documentary maker who works to amplify the voices of those who have been harmed by gender ideology. Together with Kallie Fell, Lahl has written the new book <a href='https://ignatius.com/the-detransition-diaries-ddp/?utm_source=podcast&amp;utm_medium=post&amp;utm_campaign=Detransition+Diaries&amp;utm_id=Detransition+Diaries'>The Detransition Diaries</a>, which tells the stories of five women and two men who have reclaimed their identities after dangerous journeys through hormone therapies, surgeries, and other treatments aimed at changing their biological sex.

Katie Bogner: Get Safe, Quality Books for Your Kids at Ignatius Book Fairs

It seems like Jesus would not have faith because he is God. But Father Fessio reflections on Hebrews 12:1–4 where Jesus is said to be a “pioneer and perfector of our faith.”

98: Did Jesus Have Faith?

Fr. Fessio explains another common Latin phrase—Deo Gratias. He believes that this phrase is so important that everyone should use it.

120: Do You Know What “Deo Gratias” Means?

Fr. Fessio examines Mary’s longest discourse, the Magnificat, to explain what kind of mercy God offers to those who fear Him.

77: His Mercy is on Those Who Fear Him

Looking at the Greek words, Father Fessio explains the progression of thoughts in 2 Peter 1:5–7 where St. Peter says that we should make every effort “to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge, and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness, and godliness with brotherly love, and finally brotherly love with love.”

89: From Faith to Agape

Today’s episode marks the beginning of Fr. Fessio’s series on the Mass. In this episode, he explains how the Mass is central in the sacramental order.

Fr. Fessio Starts A Series on The Mass

In Hebrews 12, St. Paul talks about running a race sounded by a cloud of witnesses with Christ as our model. Father Fessio beautifully explains this metaphor by pointing out details that only the Greek words reveal.

101: Life is Like a Greek Race

<DIV>Now with a new afterword by Pope emeritus Benedict XVI! In a time when technology penetrates our lives in so many ways and materialism exerts such a powerful influence over us, Cardinal Robert Sarah presents a bold book about the strength of silence. The modern world generates so much noise, he says, that seeking moments of silence has become both harder and more necessary than ever before.Silence is the indispensable doorway to the divine, explains the cardinal in this profound conversation with Nicolas Diat. Within the hushed and hallowed walls of the La Grande Chartreux, the famous Carthusian monastery in the French Alps, Cardinal Sarah addresses the following questions: Can those who do not know silence ever attain truth, beauty, or love? Do not wisdom, artistic vision, and devotion spring from silence, where the voice of God is heard in the depths of the human heart?After the international success of God or Nothing, Cardinal Sarah seeks to restore to silence its place of honor and importance. "Silence is more important than any other human work," he says, "for it expresses God. The true revolution comes from silence; it leads us toward God and others so as to place ourselves humbly and generously at their service."</DIV>

The Power of Silence: Against the Dictatorship of Noise

Earlier this year, Dr. Francis Beckwith was appointed to a select board of scholars to advise the Trump administration on national efforts to protect and advance religious Liberty.
Dr. Beckwith is a professor of philosophy and Church-State studies at Baylor University, and today he joins Mark Brumey to discuss religious liberty and Vatican II. The two examine “Dignitatis Humanae” and whether or not this declaration, this document, was a development or a departure from the Church’s stance on religious liberty. Dr. Beckwith explains the political role that the Church has played in history and its current place in modern politics. Finally, they discuss the challenges religious liberty faces today. This is a must-watch episode, not because of its depth of thought, but also because of its timeliness and relevance.
 
Dr. Beckwith has also written A Catholic Engagement with Latter-Day Saints.
