Reviewing Books that Build Culture
A Cure For Boredom
“Kevin Hood Gary’s book… is an important contribution to the Aristotelian tradition, which emphasizes the importance of how human beings use their free time.”
Communism: Product of the Fallen West
“The reason the Western world should fear Communism, according to Sheen, is not because it is a strong force but rather because the West is weak due to the fact that it has turned away from God and morality.”
Institutionally Preaching the Gospel: The Right Words Are Necessary
“…[Alvaré] offer[s] a detailed road map for conveying more compellingly the truth of Church teaching about difficult matters of human sexuality and why it requires Church institutions to behave differently.”
Choosing a Currency
“…White succeeds in presenting the complexity of money and its purpose in a way that is both informative and friendly to the general reader.”
“To Help Man Endure by Lifting His Heart”: Earl Hamner at 100
“Through his work, Earl Hamner not only became one of America’s favorite storytellers; he also became a conservator of the truth that though the modern world disdains the past and elevates immediacy, wealth, and power, the true measure of life’s meaning lies in love, grace, gentleness, forgiveness, and joy.”
The Women of the Bible Speak Again
“…[Bream] once again delivers lively retellings of selected biblical tales—some more familiar than others—as well as spiritual insights that are both relevant and profound.”
Inside the Split Mind of George Kennan
“It is [Costigliola’s] contention that the American militarization of the Cold War was a mistake for which he holds Kennan significantly, but far from exclusively, responsible.”
Real Natural Law
“The existence of God and his providential governance of the universe are the right subjects for public debate over the basis and content of natural law.”
Knights On a Darkling Plain
“Kirk’s reminder speaks to the selflessness of those who defend the ‘permanent things’ and the importance of these things (family, community, faith, and tradition) to our world.”
