As America begins to come to terms with the costs of White privilege to Black lives, this book urges a soul-searching examination of the role American Christianity has played in sustaining everyday white supremacy by assuring White people of their innocence.

Anti-Catholicism has a long history in America. And as Philip Jenkins argues in The New Anti-Catholicism, this virulent strain of hatred - once thought dead - is alive and well in our nation, but few people seem to notice, or care.

In his compelling new book, The Catholic Case for Trump, Austin Ruse cuts through leftist lies aimed at squashing the Catholic vote and offers his audience-broken down into three categories of liberal, faithful, and generic Catholics - a guide as to why all Catholics should not only vote for President Trump, but do so enthusiastically with confidence that he is the only moral choice.

In 1900, Mary Baker Eddy offered this timeless message to members of her growing First Church of Christ, Scientist. In it, she encourages right thinking, right acting, and right working, along with unselfishness, charity, receptivity, and obedience to God.

This sermon, given by Mary Baker Eddy, is based on Jesus’ statement: “And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover” (The Gospel of Mark, chapter 16).
