COUNTDOWN TO DOOMSDAY
Jul-Aug '20

Currently the world is facing three formidable crises, the Covid-19 pandemic, the economic downturn, and climate change. They are so severe that some people ask, are they a sign that Jesus is about to come again? In his book “Countdown to Doomsday: How Our World Will End” Pat Collins, C.M., shows how the scripture mention a number of prophetic signs which must be fulfilled before the world, as we know it, comes to a conclusion.
He argues that the tribulations which are afflicting us at present are not only allowed by God in order to invite us to repentance, they are a dress rehearsal for the even greater tribulation which will precede the end of history. Then the living and the dead will face the general judgment, the devil and his evil spirits will be cast down forever, and the new heavens and a new earth will be established. The book looks at what recent Popes, bishops, and prophetic leaders have said about the end times as well as asking, who will be saved? And what will heaven and hell be like?

THE SACRAMENTS
Jul-Aug '20

Rediscover the great sacraments of the Church in all their theological depth, spiritual effects, and pastoral promise. Bishop Barron’s new The Sacraments film series will help you understand the signs and channels of grace and discover the secret behind their persistence down the ages: the presence and power of the Savior himself. The seven sacraments are the main expressions of the Church’s life, and in the lives of the saints, we see the concrete effects of their power.
The book “Saints & Sacraments” accompanying The Sacraments film series was created to help you to come to a deeper understanding of these channels of grace through some of the great holy men and women of the Church, including Pope St. John Paul II and Sts. Louis and Zélie Martin, and to seek out the sacraments—and the holiness of life they produce—with renewed clarity and energy.
