A Map of Life: A Simple Study of the Catholic Faith

Ignatius Press

Why do we exist? Why do we suffer? Can you really explain what you believe? This book will help you begin to understand the truths of the Catholic Church and show you ways to explain your faith to others. This reprinted classic provides precise, practical outlines on the Bible, holiness, Mary, the problem of evil, and much more. It is compiled by two of the most popular and respect Catholic apologists of this century: Frank Sheed and Maisie Ward. Francis Joseph "Frank" Sheed (1897 - 1981), an Australian-born lawyer, was a Catholic writer, publisher, and speaker. He and his wife Maisie Ward were famous in their day as the names behind the imprint Sheed &amp; Ward and as forceful public lecturers in the Catholic Evidence Guild.

THEOLOGY AND SANITY FRANK SHEED Publisher: Available in Kindle E-Book: ISBN-13: 978-1-78379-346-4 I played with the thought of dedicating this book TO ALL WHO KNOW LESS THEOLOGY THAN I. It would have sounded flippant. But it would have been exact. There are thousands who know more theology than I, and for them I have no message: they must teach me. But there are thousands who know less, and less is not enough: I must try to teach them. This book contains theology, not the great mass of it that theologians need, but the indispensable minimum that every man needs in order that he may be living mentally in the REAL WORLD—which is what the word SANITY means in my title. Sanity, remember, does not mean living in the same world as everyone else; it means living in the real world. But some of the most important elements in the real world can be known only by the revelation of God, which it is theology’s business to study. Lacking this knowledge, the mind must live a half-blind life, trying to cope with a reality most of which it does not know is there. This is a wretched state for an immortal spirit, and pretty certain to lead to disaster. There is a good deal of disaster around at this moment. PUBLISHER: CATHOLIC WAY PUBLISHING

Christian Books & Bibles

Marriage as the nature of man needs it, marriage as God ordains it, harmonize admirably with each other, as we have seen, but a good deal less admirably with marriage as men and women actually live it. Reading the last two chapters, the average married couple might smile cynically or even savagely: one can hear them in derisive recitation of the Christian statement of what marriage is—a man and woman made one by God, a sexual life meant both to express the oneness and to bring children into being, he the head, she the heart. Derisively recited, even soberly studied, it sounds unrealistic, hot-house stuff, not for our weather-beaten world. Not many marriages look much like that; many look like a parody of it.

Marriage and the Family

Aeterna Press

A couple of years ago I visited a town where I was to lecture. A young woman told me she was coming to my lecture, and then asked what it was to be about. I said “The Blessed Trinity.” She said “Oh,” and then after a distinct pause “Ah well.” In other words, if her Bishop wanted her to listen to a lecture on the Blessed Trinity, she would listen to it: she hoped, doubtless, that she would do even harder things if her Bishop called for them.
