Pope Benedict XVI
Books > Catholic Product > Papal Teachings
In this bold, momentous work, the Pope - in his first book written as Benedict XVI - seeks to salvage the person of Jesus from recent 'popular' depictions and to restore Jesus' true identity as discovered in the Gospels. Through his brilliance as a theologian and his personal conviction as a believer, the Pope shares a rich, compelling, flesh-and-blood portrait of Jesus and incites us to encounter, face to face, the central figure of the Christian faith.

Jesus of Nazareth: Part Two, Holy Week: From the Entrance Into Jerusalem To The Resurrection.
For Christians, Jesus of Nazareth is the Son of God, who died for the sins of the world, and who rose from the dead in triumph over sin and death. For non-Christians, he is almost anything else-myth, a political revolutionary, a prophet whose teaching was misunderstood or distorted by his followers.
Jesus of Nazareth is the Son of God, and no myth, revolutionary, or misunderstood prophet, insists Benedict XVI. He thinks that the best of historical scholarship, while it can't "prove" Jesus is the Son of God, certainly doesn't disprove it. Indeed, Benedict maintains that the evidence, fairly considered, brings us face-to-face with the challenge of Jesus-a real man who taught and acted in ways that were tantamount to claims of divine authority, claims not easily dismissed as lunacy or deception.
Not yet released, this book will be published in March 2011.

Pope Benedict XVI
Books > Catholic Product > Papal Teachings
Never has a Pope, in a book-length interview, dealt so directly with such wide-ranging and controversial issues as Pope Benedict XVI does in Light of the World. Taken from a recent week-long series of interviews with veteran journalist Peter Seewald, this book tackles head-on some of the greatest issues facing the world of our time. Seewald poses such forthright questions to Pope Benedict as:
* What caused the clergy sexual abuse in the Catholic Church?
* Was there a "cover up"?
* Have you considered resigning?
* Does affirming the goodness of the human body mean a plea for "better sex"?
* Can there be a genuine dialogue with Islam?
* Should the Church rethink Catholic teaching on priestly celibacy, women priests, contraception, and same-sex relationships?
* Holy Communion for divorced-and-remarried Catholics?
* Should there be a Third Vatican Council?
* Is there any hope for Christian unity?
* Is Christianity the only truth?

By the time Pope John Paul II first spoke the words that became a hallmark of his papacy 'Do not be afraid!' he had long since learned the secret to fearlessness: absolute trust in God. He had every reason to fear, or at least to be depressed. While still a young man, he endured the death of his entire family, the daily horrors of World War II in his native Poland, and the ensuing communist regime when the Soviet Union absorbed Poland after the war.

Remarkably, no single book has presented his memorable teachings and sayings – until now. Christian Values and Virtues presents the influential and most-quoted words of Paul VI. Karl A. Schultz adds an insightful biography of the pope and a word about his influence. Each topic includes an introduction to help us understand this great leader’s life and legacy, as well as how to apply his teachings to our lives today.
