And there is a reason each Creed is so precisely worded the way it is, each word having been fought over with great passion: the Creeds had to be worded just right. This little book is an introduction to the struggles and heresies concerning the truth, as well as the men who fought to hand it down to us. The Catholic Faith: An Introduction to the Creeds discusses important questions like these: - Why are they called 'Creeds,' and how were they used in the early Church? - What were the fights, debates and struggles involved in hammering out the Creeds? - Why do Christians have a formal statement of their beliefs when other world religions don’t? - Are the words and concepts of the Creeds found in Scripture, and if so, where? - What is the one most crucial, fought-over, and non-biblical word in the Nicene Creed? - What are the four important “marks” of the true Church that distinguish it from sects and denominations? - What is the significance of the Creeds' emphasis on the bodily resurrection? Also included are fascinating facts, historical development, arguments for defending the faith, a biblical summary, and much more! Knowing the story behind the Creeds brings to life our fascinating history and beliefs. This book introduces the Creeds as both a prayer and a personal commitment.

Kingdom of Happiness: Living the Beatitudes in Everyday Life

"In this encouraging, easy-to-read book, Father Jeffrey Kirby offers hope to the tired, overburdened, and unhappy. He reminds us that we are made for happiness. But he goes beyond that, showing us the path to achieving happiness. It’s not a new path. In fact, Jesus showed us the way in the Beatitudes, but Kingdom of Happiness reveals how these aren’t merely nice sayings, they are powerful ways of living. Fr. Kirby first identifies the sources of unhappiness: the false promises—the anti-beatitudes—of a fallen, busy world. He explains how these anti-beatitudes, far from leading to happiness, tear down and rob us of happiness. Kirby leads the reader out of this darkness, pointing us to Jesus Christ as the saint-tested and centuries-proven source of authentic peace, true joy, and radical happiness. To unveil the path to happiness in Jesus Christ, Kirby does not rely on emotional arguments or soft spirituality. He turns to the boldness of the Lord’s Beatitudes, the real promises to true happiness. He teaches about the love, power, and self-control within them by showing their practical, life-application in today’s world. Kingdom of Happiness shows that the Beatitudes are not a self-help guide or a boring list of eight more things to do, but are a series of grace-filled, life-giving promises that excite our souls and point us along a way of life that assures us of true, lasting happiness."
