My brief review of Ignatius Press's "coffee table" book on Pope Benedict's trip to America: This new book commemorating Pope Benedict's April 2008 trip to the United States has many praiseworthy qualities. It covers the entire trip, comprehensively laying out the various events in the order they took place. "Christ Our Hope" (the name comes from the theme of the Pope's visit) also features a wide assortment...

I recently read the English translation of the book covering B16’s 2006 Schülerkreis (a yearly meeting he has with his former students) published by Ignatius Press under the title, Creation and Evolution. That is probably why Carl Olson’s post on the book interested me. What caught my eye in particular was Carl’s reference [...]

Many of us love the great 1999 book by Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger, The Spirit of the Liturgy, published in 2000 by Ignatius Press. In the Preface to that classic book, Ratzinger refers to an earlier classic published by a young priest in 1918 [as usual, my comments in brackets]: One of the first books I read after starting my theological studies at the beginning of 1946 was Romano Guardini 's first...

His attempt to tiptoe is better known as his book, Chance or Purpose? Creation, Evolution, and a Rational Faith (San Francisco: Ignatius Press, 2007). Tiptoeing won’t work, actually. The ID guys don’t really care what he says because Darwinism and materialism are toast so burnt that even a miracle couldn’t revive them, not that any miracle [...]

His attempt to tiptoe quietly is better known as his book, Chance or Purpose? Creation, Evolution, and a Rational Faith (San Francisco: Ignatius Press, 2007). Tiptoeing quietly won't work, actually. The ID guys don't really care what he says because Darwinism and materialism are toast so burnt that even a miracle couldn't revive them, not that any miracle worker would bother, of course. But the Darwinists/materialists...

Utter Muttering (Free subscription) | 31/05/2008
This fine book , published by Ignatius Press , is a collection of a series of addresses and writings by both then-Cardinal Ratzinger and Hans Urs von Balthasar on the subject of Mary, particularly in reference to her as an image and icon of the Church. As we are reminded by Cdl. Ratzinger, proper mariology is also ecclesiology and both mariology and ecclesiology are inseparable from christology. It...

Our Rhode Island friend draws my attention to Peter Kreeft's own comments on escaping the slavery of lust in the book Back to Virtue: Traditional Moral Wisdom for Modern Moral Confusion (Ignatius Press, 1986). Let's take a look at some excerpts. Compare what Kreeft says with my own suggestions in yesterday's post; there are similarities. In fact, I have had the Kreeft book on my night stand for a...

As someone who's spent considerable time with Ignatius Press folks (incl. Mass), I can certainly recommend working there. One gets the feeling it's a family. Plus, you never know if Cardinal Schoenborn might pop in :o) I've been asked to put this ad up, hopefully someone can be found. Ignatius Press is located in San Francisco, right across from USF (which is ironic, yes). IGNATIUS PRESS has an opening...
