SFO Resource Library, Vol. 2 A spiritual and theological commentary on the SFO constitutions, this book explores the ways in which the constitutions support and nourish spiritual growth both for fraternities and individuals. It attempts to share the ways in which the "law" can assist the SFO member to be a dynamic Christian-Franciscan influence in our world and in our faith communities.

SFO Resource Library, Vol. 4 The short reflections on the Secular Franciscan Rule gathered here grew out of back-page editorials in the Franciscan Herald magazine. Meant as additional ideas and insights not touched on in the commentaries, they were assembled for directors of formation. But they are especially useful for the ordinary Secular Franciscan who is looking for a way to reflect on the Rule as a personal or communal means of ongoing formation, and a parth to even truer gospel living and proclamation.

“Ilia Delio’s Crucified Love has become a modern classic in the study of Bonaventure’s Christology and theology of the Cross." — Daniel P. Horan, OFM, author, All God’s Creatures: A Theology of Creationand The Last Words of Jesus: A Meditation on Love and Suffering In this comprehensive study of St. Bonaventure’s theology of Christ crucified, Sr. Ilia Delio explores the breadth and depth of mediaeval philosophy and theology and she does so in a way that makes it relevant to the twenty-first century. “In a fragmented, suffering, and power-dominated world, Bonaventure offers a vision that is not only breathtaking in its comprehensiveness but metaphysically grounded in divine goodness and contingent on personal intimacy and relationship. It is a worldview that is critically needed in our time,” writes Delio.
