What are your favorite Catholic Books that helped you grow closer to God?
A Catholic Mom's Life True Devotion to Mary by Saint Louis de Montfort! Ave Maria!!
The Power of Silence by Robert Cardinal Sarah . 40 Dreams of St John Bosco written by St John Bosco himself
The Imitation of Christ is my Favorite!
Pope Awesome by Cari Donaldson! A conversion story that made me laugh out loud and cry.
"The Seven Story Mountain" by Fr. Thomas Merton. I pray that a quality (thinking "ICON Productions") motion picture will be made of this classic bio of a worldly intellectual man searching for meaning in a changing post WWII world and discovering it first in the Roman Catholic faith and then at the Cistercian monastery of Gethsemeni
The book that really shook me as an atheist was The Brothers Karamazov. It didn't get me into Catholicism but it did plant the seed that eventually lead to my coming into the faith.
It´s a beautiful book!
@@jesusdiazzz6369 Which truth? And on what basis do you make the claim that Catholicism is fake Christianity?
@@jesusdiazzz6369 Catholics pray to Mary to ask her to pray for us to God. It's no more idolatry than asking a living Christian to pray for you.
Catholics don't believe Mary will give us salvation. They believe that salvation comes by accepting the grace of God and carrying out the will of the Father on Earth.
They don't worship the statues. They (the statues) serve primarily aesthetic purposes. However, just from my own experience, it's incredibly helpful when praying the rosary to have these things around. For example, it helps when I'm meditating on the sorrowful mysteries to look at a crucifix. This is not worshipping the crucifix, only using it as an aid in my worship of God. To my knowledge (and I've not yet gone through RCIA so I'm relying almost entirely on the Bible and various online resources to make this claim) there's nothing sinful about that.
As for the commandment, I don't know enough about that to have a point. I'd like to point out though that if it is true that the Catholic church changed one of the Ten Commandments to justify their use of religious art, it pales in comparison to Martin Luther removing seven books from the Old Testament and attempting to remove at least three more from the New Testament.
Very interesting; read that in college and want to read it again. We'll see what happens.
I just download “left to tell” 👍🙏🏻 thanks!
The book “The Warning” changed my life. I was a Catholic that had been away from the church, was living a very sinful life (I lived in fornication for 11 years, had a 10 and 8 year old with no baptisms no sacraments.) I was blind from sin and reading the testimonies of the 10 people in this book really took the scales off my eyes to see the sins the life that I was living was not pleasing to God and now I am married through the church I have 4 children they’re all baptized the two older ones have all their sacraments we go to church every Sunday we try to pray the rosary every day and my life is a lot better now. I was very suicidal before and my depression is pretty much gone. The author Kristine Watkins is convert herself. She hated Jesus and Mary’s names before she converted! So for her to write this book says a lot! Also there’s prophecies from saints and mystics of the illumination of conscious that they believe will happen in our lifetime and we must prepare our souls for it! It’s so good! Please please read it!
The warning has one chapter on Garrabandal. For much more, read A Walk to Garabandal by Ed Kelly. People love it because it's different from all the rest on the subject.
Not approved by the Catholic Church..
The autobiography of St. Gemma Galgani titled “The Life of St. Gemma Galgani”. And I don’t mean her diary..it’s a really long book. I’ve been reading it off and on for the past couples years. It’s so refreshing when I’m down. I’m barely getting to the end of it. It’s not for everyone, but for those it is-it’s so inspiring and convicting. I love St. Gemma so very much! ❤️
A great Catholic UA-cam channel is Sensus Fidelium. It’s mainly sermons/talks from various awesome priests.
Oh yes I watch Sensus Fidelium too and like it!
@@kaia332 I watch it all the time.
Amazing
Secrets of the Rosary by St. Louie De Montfort
Ruth Dsilva so good!!!
@@ACatholicMomsLife have you read it? Please tell me what you think about it.
@Dictator Czar
Boom!
English major that is planning on starting RCIA has tuned in haha
Did you do it? I want to but am very afraid of people around me who are anti catholic and don’t know how
@@HannahBirzes God is calling you. Don’t worry about what people will say. Do it for yourself. Classes have begun, but go ahead and find a Catholic Church near you and ask anyone there for information. They will be more than willing to help you out. God bless🙏🏽
Welcome to the family! How's it going?
The #DreamoftheRood is a beautiful Catholic book that I think only English majors read..
Our Lady Of Vietnam stay behind you. what a lovely statue!
To add on top of your list:
1. Life Of Christ by Ven. Fulton Sheen
2. Go to Heaven by Ven. Fulton Sheen
3. Humility of Heart by Rev. Fr. Cajetan Mary da Bergamo
I love Secret of the Rosary by St Louis de Montfort. That book taught me how to pray the Rosary!
As someone who is currently in the process of getting prepared for RCIA, this video and Heathers channel in general are so helpful and full of guidance and reassurance. God bless you Heather!
Tabitha Lane I agree. This channel has helped me so much is I’m preparing for RCIA. Everything is so easy to understand when she explains it. ❤️
Scott Hahn's books are fantastic, especially for Catholic converts. I am a former Presbyterian converting to Catholicism, and his family's story and his writings have been so helpful. I'm also reading Imitation of Christ right now, and finished Story of a Soul a few months ago. It was so transformative I've chosen St. Therese as my confirmation saint. :)
Thank you so much for your videos, Heather!
Cara S. So awesome! Love that you chose Therese as your confirmation name!
I read The Lamb’s Supper and it blew me away. :)
@@jesusdiazzz6369 Sorry friend, but I woke up and found the truth in Catholicism. What you call "a fake christian church" is, in fact, the original Christian Church. You're barking up the wrong tree.
Saint Thérèse is my Confirmation saint as well!!! I've been confirmed since May 2, 2011! Congrats, fellow convert! Welcome home!
@@jesusdiazzz6369 ,
Go away!
Go!
Our Lady of Kibeho is a must read! I've read it twice. Heather you must visit our Lady of Kibeho in Rwanda. Immaculee (author of Left To Tell) organises pilgrimages to Kibeho, Rwanda every year.
so cool I will have to check it out! I would love to go! Thank you:)
Oh, Rediscovering Catholicism and Four Signs of a Dynamic Catholic by Matthew Kelly really opened my eyes to the current realities and inspired me to be a better Catholic. ❤
K A yes! Anything by Matthew Kelly is great!
I have read Rediscovering Catholicism three times!
Pray the Holy Rosary.
Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
Thank you for your great review. My favorite book for lent is The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ by Anne Catherine Emmerich. Powerful!
How could I forget, "True devotion to Mary" St. Louis Marie de Montfort
Four of your favorites are also mine! Thank you for sharing. We seem to have the same taste. Doing the Catholicism In a Year and Bible in a year, with Fr. Mike Schmitz has been life changing for me. Plus you can go at your own pace.
I love the holy book, True Devotion to Mary. I have read this book three times now. This book has changed my life. I have grown closer to Our Heavenly Mother.
“Divine Intimacy” by Father Gabriel of Mary Magdalene, a Belgian priest. I’ve read it through for 15 years every year. It’s like having your own spiritual director. My husband reads it through daily every year, too. Highly recommended for spiritual growth. I also read “The Imitation of Christ” daily and the Bible and my “Magnificat.”
I highly recommend "Introduction to the Devout Life is a book written by Saint Francis de Sales"... which is my second fav, but YES, "I TOTALLY LOVE "The Imitation of Christ" which is my fav book other than the Bible. However, I will say, in my opinion, this book is SUPER DEEP... We can agree on being a FAV. Yep! Totally love the Diary of Saint Faustina and have that one too :) Thank you for sharing the others. I will check them out.
The Life of Christ by Fulton Sheen I love this book to read on its own as well as a way to deepen meditative prayer or meditation while praying the rosary. He does such an awesome job digging into the gospels and poetically painting the life of Christ for the reader. It’s thick and can be intimidating, but I highly recommend a chapter a day read alongside the corresponding gospel chapters/verses.
Thanks Heather, I read the Diary of St Faustina, after you recommended it. I read it and my life changed completely. I feel closer to God. I now have a relationship with Him. I am very grateful to you. I love your channel. Keep up with your amazing ministry.
@@jesusdiazzz6369 Praying for you!
Abby, I second your opinion on "Life of Christ," it's one of my absolute favorite books - I've read it twice before and am reading it again for Lent this year! Fulton Sheen writes so eloquently and beautifully, and with so much insight. "Life of Christ," like most of his writings and talks, really does feel like he was under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit when he wrote it. I've had so many enlightening moments while reading it, and it really has helped to bring me to a deeper understanding of the Gospel and a more intimate relationship with Christ :)
One of the best!
The book that made me a Catholic!! God bless
I'm on week 4 of RCIA and I'm learning all prayers (know them only in Spanish, learning how to pray the rosary, and how to follow mass.. I was raised a catholic but converted to non-denominational Christian and I just went back a year ago
Welcome back home
33 Days to Morning Glory and Diary of St Faustina are great picks! For young or new Catholics, Matthew Kelly has great books that are easy to read and understand :)
My heart will triumph, Mirjana Soldo about apparitions from Our Lady in Medjugorje
I love and have read and re-read The Way of a Pilgrim several times. It from the Eastern Orthodox tradition but Christians of any denomination can be touched by its message of the power of the beautiful Jesus prayer.
I love, love, love The Great Adventure Catholic Bible! Just got it last week I love the layout, the color codes on the pages, and the leather cover. The print layout is easy to read. It’s not a large print Bible, but it seems easier to read for my 61 y/o eyes. 😉 Jesus’ words are in red, and this helps, too. It’s also easy to hold when reading-some Bibles are not (like, they need to be placed on a table to read, or it wants to flip closed all the time, etc.). Also has two ribbons for bookmarks.
Thank you 😊
Have been reading the IC daily since I was 14, so, over 55 years. Chapter per day. Never gets old & always find something new in it. Received the Diary for Christmas, hoping to begin this summer. Love St. Therese’s work. She also wrote exquisitely beautiful poetry-great to pray with. Just to challenge myself, went through the entire CCC as a study. Took over a year but was well worth the effort. Thomas à Kempis also wrote a wonderful little book that is great for Lent, especially as one approaches Holy Week, entitled On the Passion of Christ (Ignatius Press).
the IC?
IC= Imitation of Christ
Diary of st Faustina..i was hoping this book was on your list..totally changed me as a person. Every catholic needs to read this diary.
I'm half way there. 😊
I’m going to be ordering the ones I do not have lol Thank you!!
33 days to Morning Glory is my #1of course after my Catholic Study Bible and catechism 🙏🏽
M Perez amen to 33 days to morning glory!!!
Me too love her
Oooh. I didn’t know there was a story about the Rwanda apparitions. I’ve only read about it from a website. Thanks for the book recommendations. LOVE The Imitation of Christ (and The Imitation of Mary). ❤️
You want to add to your beautiful library the book called “The Keys of This Blood” by Malachi Martin. Eye opening Catholic history you’re going to love.
Rediscover Catholicism by Matthew Kelly, and Surprised by Truth by Patrick Madrid. Both are top favorite books and really ignited a fire in my faith!
I always have the Imitation of Christ and my Bible with me. Xoxo from France ! Love your channel.
you must do something better; like me as a catholic; through my channel
@@MiracleWorkerUK huh ?
@@MiracleWorkerUK And what is better than getting to know The Powerful Ever Living God Jesus Christ through reading Goid Catholic book and The Bible. Wake up
Thanks for sharing Heather. I also love reading books of saints. Currently, I am reading Mother Teresa, come be my light and it is drawing me so closely to God. I love to see how she persevered. Also the 33 days to Morning Glory is amazing.
Are you a christian?
Saint lover here, also! I have 19-20 books on saints on top of my desk right now!
Recently finished The Power of Silence by Cardinal Robert Sarah. Very relevant to today's noise-filled world and trying to hear God's voice in all that.
Also, The Life of Christ, by Fulton J Sheen. Sheer genius. One can't go wrong with anything by Abp Sheen. God bless.
Agree totally
Hi, I'm not much of a reader ,, but I watch U.T . Vidioes and one is F.J. sheen and another is ,,What Catholic's believe ,, and of coarse Fatima. Reason is my mother always listen to F .J .Sheen on radio .. and she was very religious . He gave warnings about the moderest way back then before they took over the Catholic Church.
(1.) Catholic Prayers published by TAN, (2.) Jesus and the Jewish Roots of Mary by Brant James Pitre
I have loved 1)Confessions of a Mega-Church Pastor - Dr. Allen Hunt
2.Rome Sweet Home by Scott Hahn,
3.) See You In Heaven: The Life and Writings of Rosie Gil by Marie Thompson
4.) Mother Angelica: The Remarkable Story of a Nun, Her Nerve, and a Network of Miracles (Mother Angelica is the nun who created the EWTN Television Network)
1) Catholic prayer book (Catholic publishing company)
2)The rule of saint Benedict
3) The devotion to the sacred heart (Fr. John Croiset,SJ)
4) Catholic traditions and treasures(Dr Helen Hoffner, Sophia Institute Press)
5)The Baltimore catechism (any edition)
My goal is to purchase "The mystical City of God".
That's one I have to save up for 💰
Is #5 a bible or what is it??
Sorry for the question, I'm trying to learn about things that are Catholics!!!!
Great sounding recommendations! I got the Mystical City of God on Kindle, kind of archaic language so it’s a slow read for me. 👀🤷🏽♀️
Immaculée - what a beautiful name. I will seek her book out. I also like Pope Benedict's book 'Jesus of Nazareth'. He seems rather quiet in the background nowadays, as Pope emeritus, but dear Joseph Ratzinger is a brilliant and talented theologian.
I love stories of saints and about miracles and sanctuaries . As well as some mistic authors who write about rheir expiriences . Abbé Pierre,
Henry Nouwen etc. I don't like books without a message of faith . I live in Portugal and have a cousin in the Carmel .
Thanks for your nice and captivating way to teach . God bless you and your family. Have a good Advent and Xmas !
She is a survivor of the genocide in Rwanda. Amazing woman and has written several books.
Love your Lady of La Vang statue in the back ❤️
Me too!
Thank you So much for the wonderful suggested reading list! I'll look into that.. Cheers🙏🙏🙏📖👍
The best daily reader I have read and do read is
Divine Intimacy (Fr. Gabriel of St. Mary Magdelene) Baronius Press
Thank you! I only have a few of those. I’ll add them to my list. :) I appreciate your heart!!
Thank you for your recommendations!
Great suggestions! Thank you so much!
BTW- I love your Lady of LaVang statue!
A book all should read is "My Daily Bread - A Summary of the Spiritual Life" by Anthony J. Paone S.J. of the Confraternity of the Precious Blood. It's a must read for every Catholic. It starts with a section on "The Way of Purification". The second section is called "The Way of Imitation" and the final section is called "The Way of Union". Each of the sections are broken down in short chapters that begin with an example of the Lord speaking to you. Then a small personal reflection of yourself thinking about what the Lord just said to you. And finally a short prayer at the end of each chapter asking the Lord to help you and be with you to be the person He wants you to be. It is 430 pages long but once you begin reading it, you won't want to put it down. I am an active and practicing cradle Catholic involved in many ministries but once I started reading this book, it awakened me to things I never thought of before. It spoke to me in a way that no other book has affected me. It has helped me devote much more time to prayer, reading of scripture and yearning for my desire for a life in Heaven with the Lord. PLEASE, if you are seeking to grown in your faith and relationship with the Lord, read this book. You can usually find it at any Catholic book store or website. God Bless!
Thank you for creating this channel!!!! OMG!!!! I haven't seen The Imitation of Christ in almost 20 years!!!! :-(
I love it when I see Our Lady of La Vang status in the background! Thank you !
Thanks for this! I went through my church's RCIA program, was baptized Catholic 2 Easter's ago, had my first communion and first confession. I've been away from the church for a while and it makes my heart ache. I'm getting back into it and this helps! Thank you!
True devotion to Mary by St. Louis de Montfort with the consecration is closest to my soul, and a go to for meditation before the Eucharist.
It's SO hard to choose but some of my faves are: Abandonment to Divine Providence by Fr. Caussade, Searching for and Maintaining Peace by Fr. Philippe, Deep Conversion/Deep Prayer by Thomas Dubay, and Jesus the Bridegroom by Dr. Pitre. I could go on and on...
I got that bible for Christmas!!! I was so excited when you lifted it up! I literally own all but one of the books you talked about! Love your channel!♥️
I enjoy reading “My Daily Bread” by Anthony J Pasone, S.J. - Confraternity of The Precious Blood.
They are such short chapters but include a message, a reflection and a short prayer. I find it helpful to read at night before bed or in the morning before my day begins as it brings peace to my soul.
I do want to read the Dairy of Saint Faustina in the near future as well as The Imitation of Christ.
Hi, some of the best books I have read are the Lives of the Saints, Confessions of St. Augustine, Abandonment or, absolute surrender to Divine Providence. St. John of the Cross, True Devotion to Mary. I do believe that we are so blessed in our Catholic church because we have such rich writings. slowly building my own little library. thanks for sharing with us.
Some Catholic books I like. The Imagination of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and Understanding Divine Mercy
The catechism from ascension press is wonderful. The one with the white leather cover.
He and I
The diary of Gabrielle Bossis Gabrielle Bossis, a French nurse and playwright, as she hears the inner voice of Jesus in the core of her being. Recorded in her diary from 1936 to 1950, their tender exchanges capture Jesus's enduring presence in our daily lives.
And this one great also another diary. In Sinu Jesu: When Heart Speaks to Heart -- The Journal of a Priest at Prayer
Makes a great gift for your priest also!
Both books have the nihil obstat, Imprimatur.
I just started to follow your channel. I thank you for the information you put out.
Good video. Thanks for share with us. God bless you. The Catechism in a Year, from Ascension Press too, is beautiful. I'm waiting for Spanish Version.
Life of Christ, Bishop Sheen.
"Under the Mantle" by Donald H. Callaway Very Good book!!!
I bought this Catholic bible last year before Lent. I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!! Love the timeline and suggestions on what to read and when to read. Great review. Thank you and God Bless!
I would add to the list Mere Christianity... it is amazing.
thank you for your videos! I live where the majority of people are Catholics. Your videos help me to understand my neighbors better.
Pierced by a Sword is AMAZING! It’s a novel but it changed my life. All of Mathew Kelley’s book are really good too. I am reading 4 signs of a Dynamic Catholic now.
Amen !!!!! 'Popes Against Modernism ', ' The Glories of Mary ' !!!!!
Love The diary of Saint Faustina read it 3 times
Thank you for this video.
im also a catholic from the Philippines 🇵🇭 (@a catholic mom's life): i have Consecration to st joseph, 33 days to morning glory, 33 days to merciful love, the bible, catechism
‘Our Lady of Fatima: 100 years of stories, prayers and devotions’ by Donna-Marie Cooper O’Boyle is a book I recommend. It’s a beautiful read. Thank you for sharing the books that have touched your heart. ‘Our Lady of Kibeho’ is now on my list of books to purchase : )
Have you watched Jimmy Akins episode on Kibeho?
ua-cam.com/video/W76eCz_pwAc/v-deo.html
I've been waiting for this video since I found your channel : )
Wow, there's books here that I haven't heard of before, thanks and God bless!
Came across this just now and found it very interesting. A need of the hour for the present generation that gets hooked on to the mobile or tablet playing video games or watching all kinds of stuff leading away from Our Blessed Lord and Saviour.
I have sent this video to my extended family, and specifically to my Godchild who reads a lot but none of those recommended by you.
As for Jeff Cavins, I am following Fr. Mike Schmidt's Bible in a year and came to know of him and hear his talk with Fr. Mike. It has brought me or rather is bringing me closer and closer to Our Blessed Lord and Saviour.
God bless you abundantly.
Left to tell is one of my favorite books! It really makes you think I how even in the worst and hardest times we can still forgive those who do evil against us. I do wanna read the diary of st. Faustina
I recommend that Catholics cut their teeth on the Catechism of the Council of Trent first. It is so much more accessible and readable. Very short sections. I also recommend the new Catechism of the Catholic Church of course but it has more a reference book feel and is enormous. The Catechism of Trent was the basis of all catechetical material for 400 years. Countless saints and popes drew great fruit from it.
@Justin Reany, thank you so much for suggesting this! I have been rather intimidated by the new Catechism, and when I looked into the Council of Trent one, it looks like just what I need! God bless!
Meline
Justin thank you so much much I will have to add that book to my list❤️🔥🙏✝️✝️✝️
I think they did a better job back then unfortunately the new catechism, although an excellent idea to help deal with the confusion I think they did only a C minus job, covering the sacraments prayer and apologetics they had a golden opportunity to answer most of the protestant objections, showing where they are in the scripture how the catholic answers them and they didn’t do it instead we got a lot of words I don’t say too much. That’s why I wrote my small catechism called “a scriptural catechism.” it has sold quite well. I’m working on a bigger version though, but I can never reach the numbers with my little book that they can with theirs. Hopefully the catechism will be revised sometime down the road.
I really love The Glories of Mary and of course Story of a Soul. Well I must say I love all the books you mentioned and I also think Jeff Cavin is so awsome.
All of Scott Hahn's books....wonderful. I met Father Gaitley and heard him speak...it was transformative. 😀 Immaculée's books are fabulous. Her life story renewed my love for the rosary. Danielle Bean's books are also great for moms: Small steps for Catholic moms, Momnipotent, Handbook for Women. Loved your choices.
I read Story of a Soul. Saint Therese of Lisieux is special to me. I have two books that I'll always have in addition to my missal and bible. My Catholic Faith a catechism in pictures , and The Raccolta which is filled with prayers.
The one book every Catholic should have is Fulton Sheen's "Life of Christ."
Thank you so much for sharing this list. I am currently reading Catholics Come Home.
Thanks for the list!!! Another must-read classic is the Confessions by St. Agustine. We plan on doing an episode on the same topic. Thanks again!!!
Yes! St Augustine is awesome!!! That is a good one! I will have to check out your video too!
Share the channel if you see that it can be helpful for others. May our Blessed Virgen Mary protect and guide all of your apostolate work!!!@@ACatholicMomsLife
The Hallow app has the Imitation of Christ in audio. That’s how I became closer to Christ. It’s just SO beautifully spoken, and when I listen to it, I really feel like Jesus is speaking directly to me because throughout the book, there’s a conversation going on between Jesus and his disciple. I love this book And I love the Hallow app as well … highly recommend them
I don't really have many Catholic books. I have one about the history of the religious habit of the nuns a book by Mother Angelica a book called a quiet place with Mary a book about the Rosary but Catholic Prayers compiled by Thomas A. Nelson has really helped me the past couple of days. My grandfather fell trying to get into the shower on Thursday night he was sickly to begin with Gramma Linda said that they said it wasn't the fall that killed him but the internal bleeding. He was the patriarch of the Wojciechowicz side of my family. My family that is Catholic. So the prayer book helped me a bit. He is going to laid to rest on Friday in St. Mary's cemetery.
I just read The Warning by Christine Watkins and am now beginning Mary's Mantle Consecration by Christine Watkins as well. I also am using the accompanying journal, which really helps me delve deeper into the meditations.
I started over after beginning because I forgot to use the journal.
Ha! And now I'm starting over again so I can go through it with my mom. How special is that!
Great choices, I have several of these books and one on order. The great Adventure Bible, The Bible in a Year podcast (Fr. Mike Schmitz) and the Bible in a Year companion are a phenomenal combination.
Love all the books you suggest! Would add Theology of the Body for Beginners: Rediscovering the meaning of Life, Love, Sex and Gender by Christopher West it changed my life by opening my eyes to the truth about love and marriage! God Bless your ministry Heather 🙏🏻
Pamela Hodges Hamilton Those all sound awesome! I have ToB and read some but need to read more!
I approach my faith in two ways ! Practical and intellectual.
On the intellectual side anything by Fulton sheen is gold!
From a practical ,spiritual side anything by mother angelica but also story of a soul obviously and He leadeth me had a huge impact
The Catholic Book of Prayers by Rev Maurus Fitzgerald. I have this in Spanish and English it helped plant the seed to grow closer to God. It also helped with prayer and going to mass. I did not know the order of mass or prayer. Right now I am reading the Imitation of Christ.
Since you like The Story of a Soul, you should read The Story of a Family about Therese Martin's family. I've been considering buying that Bible. Sounds like it's worth buying. I like the Imitation of Christ too. I also have The Imitation of Mary by the same publisher.
@@jesusdiazzz6369 I'm wide awake thanks!
The Catholic Gentleman by Sam Guzman just came out and I am REALLY enjoying it!
We have a mini Catholic library in our home 😅. I like being able to look up answers to questions for apologetics in the Radio Replies series and "The Father's Know Best" for quotes from the earliest leaders of the church.
My favorite to read read are the "Surprised by Truth" books, bc I love hearing conversion stories.
just bought consoling the heart of Jesus. Excited to start reading it. Thank you for the recommendation.
Oh good! I hope you love it as much as I do! It is perfect for Lent!!!
Consoling the Heart of Jesus is my favorite of all💕🙏
Nice list of books- I have some and will check the others out. The link for the Bible took me to the catechism . I was wondering who the publisher is of the Bible you showed in the video. Thanks😀
I found Steven Ray's "Crossing the Tiber" very helpful also Scott Hahn's "A Father who keeps his promises"
I just finished Chiara Corbella Petrillo A Witness to Joy and it was AMAZING!!! Her out look on life will change and inspire you. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Yes, I love her! Btw, her canonization process has already begun!
@@muchotravka1 Has it really? Is there somewhere I can follow it? I would love to keep posted on this. I love her!

Two that were really life changing for me: “Reformed: Memoir of a Teenage Killer” I read this during a huge trial in my life and it unexpectedly changed my view and approach to suffering and trials.
“In Sinu Jesu: When Heart Speaks to Heart - the Journal of a Priest at Prayer” called me into a deeper interior life.
Hi Catholic Mom! Try reading The Life of Mary as seen by the mystics by Raphael Brown. It's a compilation of private revelations and visions of 4 Catholic mystics. I sometimes pause for a while after reading one page and read it again. That's how interesting and informative (as far as I'm concerned) of her life from her birth to her assumption to Heaven. In fact it started from St. Ann and St. Joaquim's story. God bless ❤🙏🙏🙏
