Tangential, but have you guys read One Billion Americans? Lots of really good pro-natal policy proposals in there. Big recommend.
I think for his exemplary life and particular devotion to the Eucharist
He is buried in Assisi and thousands visit his shrine every day there is a live stream of it and you can often see people praying there at www.mariavision.it/santuario-spogliazione-assisi
I made a podcast about his life if you want more information https://www.buzzsprout.com/1226960/9317267-oct-10-carlo-acutis-the-first-millenial-saint.mp3?download=true
Ah, but if it's this book:
https://www.amazon.com/Scriptural-Rosary-English-Christianica/dp/0911346163/
(and yes, it often is) -- obviously, some people bring in missals and similar printed material.
That said, I'm just carrying in a paperback or something like that. I'm not reading it in church. Just carrying it around. (This is daily Mass, fwiw, not Sunday Mass. I'm talking about going to Mass in the Before Times, when I was going at noontime walking from my office, so there was plausible deniability that I was walking around w/ a book.)
John Paul ii made the boldest effort to reach out when he visited Romania..... I made a small podcast about it on the anniversary

For clarity and context: (even if this place should be just for fun....)
Reliable source of what he actually said - vaticannews (spanish)
The relevant part starts at the word "vuelo" (=flight), in the sentence which translated starts:
"I was asked a question on a flight - then I got angry, I got angry at the way it was conveyed by a media - about the family integration of people with a homosexual orientation"
My biggest recommendation is to listen to Fr. Calloway’s conversion story here. Begin deeply meditating and reading on St. Augustine’s’ Confessions.
Yes, I went to Catholic K-12. I can explain 95% of my beliefs at a moment's notice, if people ask. I also must ask if you've heard of this book?
Excellent choice. I'm a father of a 1.5 year old and a 2 month old. It's not an easy vocation. I'll suggest a book someone gave me when I had my first: Made this Way. Congratulations.
St. Joseph, Terror of Demons, pray for us.
There's no real unity in the positions on it. I've read some things about the Syriac Orthodox Patriarch of Antioch claiming Petrine primacy because St. Peter was the bishop of Antioch for while, but I'm not sure as to the extent of this claim. One of the Syriac Catholic Patriarchs of Antioch (which returned to the Catholic Church in the 18th century) actually wrote a book arguing from classic Syriac Christian theology for the primacy of the Bishop of Rome, but I'm not entirely sure what the argument is because the book is in Syriac. I also found this book, which contains an essay written by an Armenian about their view of the Roman Papacy. https://www.amazon.com/dp/0814659365/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_cR2HFb9BBZMXQ
Fr. Henri Nouwen has a pretty decent book about meeting people where they are titled The Wounded Healer - I thought it very insightful and helpful.
Eh, rather someone like Joe Eszterhas be up there instead then.
His conversion to Catholicism was chronicled in Crossbearer
I saw your post before it was deleted. Please check out this book at your local library.
You need to work on you before you can have a successful relationship.
The irony is that most of those "SO TRUEE!!!1!" statements are not original to atheists, but came from fundamentalist protestants. Here's the one yeeting the Ishtar/Eostre connection. Here's one going Ol'Yeller on "Hitler's Pope." The rest can be Googled and roundfile in about two minutes each.
So yeah. Turns out they're half as edgy as a K-LOVE marathon and twice as annoying.
I would recommend Edward Feser’s book Five Proofs for the Existence of God as your starting point. This is a great primer on the source material from Aquinas that goes into extreme depth in all these questions.
Pope Francis asked the faithful to use the prayer to St. Michael back in October 2018. My diocese brought it back to be used for the end of mass the day after Pope Francis asked.
The following Sunday every priest in our diocese read a letter during mass from our bishop explaining Pope Francis' ask and the importance of this prayer.
no pews...
or they could be Levantine Uniates... They're all pew-ed up in 'Merica...
also the Prosphora is EO, and the Fact that Bp. Kallistos Ware is in the photo...
lolz...
don't you love the internets... we can all be hair splitters...! WOOT!
Solzenitzen said the world would be saved by beauty and he is right, but also laughter... not to scorn, but belly laughs... where you're crying...
St. Thomas Aquinas wrote more than the Summa Theologiae, he also wrote specific commentaries on the gospels and other Bible books. Is called the golden chain or "Catena Aurea"
https://www.amazon.com/Catena-Aurea-Volumes-Thomas-Aquinas/dp/1905574509
I've written fairly extensively on the topic of the identification theory on this subreddit here with many references to the excellent book: *St. Mary Magdalene: Prophetess of Eucharistic Love
The fact that the country wasn't called "France" doesn't mean that she didn't land at or near Sainte-Baume. Likewise, we can certainly call St. Augustine an Algerian saint, even though it was called Numidia in his day.
Scott Hahn is my go-to recommendation for getting the basics on anything theological. He’s a fantastic educator and a former Protestant. His book Signs of Life covers Catholic customs and why we do them. It’s separated into 40 short chapters, each on a different custom or practice, giving basic scriptural and historical reasons.

Alternatively, I don’t like the KJV and it’s older style. I also prefer the “transliteral” style of the NASBRE, so here’s a link for that. But any bible with an imprimatur will have the books your missing/be “Catholic-approved”. You can even read them online on the USCCB website.
If you can find the books, then you can read them one little story at a time. I've found a great deal of comfort in them, maybe you will too. Here's a link on Amazon: https://smile.amazon.com/Complete-Little-World-Don-Camillo/dp/1900064073/ref=sr_1_6?dchild=1&keywords=don+camillo+omnibus&qid=1610247061&sr=8-6
The Protestant apologetic is that we believe in justified by faith(as in loyalty/trust) alone. James is warning against a dead faith(just belief in Jesus).
Faith Alone - The Doctrine of Justification (The Five Solas Series) by Schreiner Barrett (2015-10-22) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017PO8SWA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_.YcwFbHQFDFKR
I do not necessarily agree with all the things written in this Book but it’s a good scholarly work on what the reformers wanted.
Edit: I’m a messenger. Don’t shoot me
Maistre's thinking is a common root to many ways to apprehend political philosophy, but could be difficult to contextualize to modern politics... He had both really good and pretty fucked up heritage (e.g. Auguste Comte's atheist positivism)
I would advise for a 'beginner' instead to go for Bernanos (If you can find a translation, I think a compilation of his 'last essays' has been published in the US), and Charles Maurras (Here is an edition of two of his great works, but I can't find english translations of the main pieces, namely his "Enquete sur la monarchie" and "Three political ideas").
Not trying to sell anything, but I 100% recommend reading this book: https://www.amazon.com/First-Thousand-Years-History-Christianity/dp/0300198388 . Check it out at a library if you can, but once you read it you will see that the filioque, while an issue, is one of many that caused separation between the eastern and western Church (Rome and Constantinople). It’s a very complicated history.
