Our world is deeply troubled: wars, terrorism, political and social unrest, family breakdown, mass migrations, moral confusion, and chaos. In the Church: faith has diminished, doctrines are denied, moral teachings are ignored, scandals in the clergy cause real dismay and doubt.
Featuring commentary and insights by Raymond Cardinal Burke and Bishop Mark Davies, and appealing to proven methods from the Church&rsquo;s history, this film sets forth a powerful blueprint for revival in the Catholic Church, and thus a renewal in families, communities, and the world. It focuses on five key areas to drive this renewal: Catechesis, Liturgy, the Gospel of Life, Sanctity, and Mission. The film also includes commentary from church leaders Fr. Marcus Holden, Fr. Andrew Pinsent, Joanna Bogle, Jacob Phillips, and inspiring young adults who speak about their Catholic faith and trust in Christ.

Seelos: Tireless Intercessor is a true story that chronicles the heroic and miraculous life of a young immigrant priest, Blessed Francis Xavier Seelos (1819&ndash;1867). This Redemptorist missionary was beatified by Pope John Paul II in the Solemn Jubilee Year 2000. Father Seelos possessed great mystical gifts due to his intense prayer life. His dedication to ministry with cheerful holiness makes him still an outstanding model for clergy, religious, and laity alike. As an itinerant preacher and lifelong friend of the poor and destitute, Seelos was a spiritual father to tens of thousands. Despite his early death at age forty-eight, so profound was his missionary zeal that sickness, persecution, and even the upheaval caused by the Civil War could not stop him.

Seelos: Tireless Intercessor

History

<DIV>In these homilies, most of which are previously unpublished, Joseph Ratzinger, now Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, addresses the theme he has celebrated, pondered, and witnessed by his life more than any other: love. For him, love is the vital nucleus of the Church and to serve Christ is above all a question of love: "Peter, do you love me? Feed my sheep" (Jn 21:15&ndash;17).Love is also the quest of every human being on the journey toward eternity. He beautifully states, "Christianity is a movement, a journey; it is not a theory, a sum total of doctrine; Christianity is life, it is a vital impetus that carries us toward true life. . . . Someone who has found love can say: I have found life."Arranged by the liturgical seasons of the Church year, the homilies predate the author's pontificate. The earliest dates from 1970 while he was still a professor of theology. Thus, this collection traces the way Joseph Ratzinger has been enamored of the love of God throughout his years of serving the Church.</DIV>

On Love

Ida Friederike G&ouml;rres was one of the brightest, most penetrating Catholic writers in twentieth-century Europe. Bishop Erik Varden has called her &ldquo;a treasure we should again make our own&rdquo;, while Joseph Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI), at her funeral, labeled her a &ldquo;brave and faithful woman&rdquo;, with &ldquo;an insightful certainty .&nbsp;.&nbsp;. about the pressing questions and tasks of the Church today&rdquo;. Yet her work is almost entirely unknown in the English-speaking world today.
The time has come to discover Ida G&ouml;rres. This collection of vibrant, piercing, often wry essays were written in the tumultuous years surrounding Vatican II, when &ldquo;demolition troops&rdquo; bent on destruction mingled with saints like Karol Wojtyła. Rising out of this confusion, G&ouml;rres, with her colorful style, reveals the raw, majestic splendor of the Catholic Church, which is more craggy, complex, and solid than any Alpine mountain.
If you think you have fallen out of love with Catholicism, read&nbsp;Bread Grows in Winter, a brutally honest yet poetically inspired meditation on the heart of the faith. Originally published in 1970, it is perhaps more important today than ever. Can we still trust the &ldquo;leaky ship&rdquo; of the Church? Yes, we can, and yes, we must.
