Four Marks of the Church Part 1 - Dr. Scott Hahn

Great Women of the Bible - Dr. Bob Fishman
“The two stories were from the O.T. Brother Bob is a great story teller--certainly made the Book of Judith and Ruth come alive. Mixed throughout his stories he included thoughts connecting the story to our lives today. For example: reliance on prayer, trusting God, faithfulness. After hearing the CD, I was drawn to read again the two Books featured. I was able to read it with more understanding and could really "get into it". I now look differently at those two books of the Old Testament---I certainly appreciate them more after listening to the CD.” Cincinnati, OH

“Kimberly is a great speaker with an infectious sense of conviction for our Catholic faith that is commonly observed in converts. This is especially refreshing for the cradle Catholic.

“Reinforces and reminds listeners of the "real" presence in the Eucharist per our Catholic teachings!!!!” William--St Louis, MO
“The information on this CD has given me a deeper appreciation and meaning for the Mass and Holy Communion. I too, was one of those adults who did not know what Eucharist meant. The CD has also made me think about what we do as a family to prepare for church every Sunday. It sometimes seems that were in a rush to get there that we forget why were even going.

“Definitely one to listen to a few times. Lots of information to ponder. Gives one a lot to reflect upon...especially a working mom!” Cincinnati, OH
“I really liked this CD and the focus on Mary is a different twist from what I have read on the Theology of the Body. A good overview of the teaching and the focus on Mary as the ideal human, as close as anyone can be to living out God's plan, is an awesome combination. The enthusiasm of the speaker was wonderful, but he did seem to struggle to find the words at times.” Cincinnati, OH
When Life Doesn't Make Sense - Fr. Benedict Groeschel
“It helped put into perspective the suffering of others and what I can do to help them.
