St. Anselm desired a quiet and monastic life but soon realized he was called to positions of leadership. This is all too familiar for many men and women in their vocation; they find themselves in a place they would not have predicted. Learn how St. Anselm dealt with this and found peace in God’s calling for him.
During the time of St. Anselm of Canterbury's life, there was increased attention on the human suffering of Christ — but how did Mary see it? What would the Blessed Mother say about Christ’s earthly suffering? Did she rejoice in it, or was she overtaken by sorrow?
The life, work, and times of St. Augustine from nearly 1600 years ago serve as a tremendous model for holiness today for nearly as many reasons as his 5 million recorded words. Join TAN Publisher Conor Gallagher and Dr. Paul Thigpen as they conclude the 8-part Spiritual Masters series on St. Augustine of Hippo with important lessons learned and practical takeaways we can use in our everyday lives.
The numbers are staggering, but the message is even more meaningful.
1.5 million of St. Augustine's 8 million recorded words come from his sermons.
TAN Publisher Conor Gallagher and Dr. Paul Thigpen delve into the powerful revelations from the Doctor of Grace's sermons in this episode of The Spiritual Masters.
In what some consider his most important contribution to Church Doctrine, St. Augustine illuminates the idea of faith seeking understanding in On The Trinity. TAN Publisher Conor Gallagher and Dr. Paul Thigpen investigate the concept of believing so that you may understand and much more in this episode of The Spiritual Masters.
Before the turn of the 4th century St. Augustine had written three of the four books that went on to become one of his most important and influential works, On Christian Doctrine. More than 1600 years later, it's the focus of part five of TAN's 8-part series of The Spiritual Masters on St. Augustine of Hippo.
Do you want Catholic authorities to stand up for the Church? More than 1500 years ago, St. Augustine spoke out against heresies of all kinds, and his wise words are as important today as they were then.
Feeling pessimistic about the state of the world? Find inspiration in this discussion about St. Augustine's The City of God, a story full of people who forego earthly pleasure and dedicate themselves to the eternal truths of God.
In his biography of St. Augustine, St. Isidore of Seville famously said, “The man who claims to have read all of Augustine is a liar.” Take a journey through the highlights - and lowlights - of the life of this eloquent and prolific Doctor of the Church.
Review the life and works of "The Seraphic Doctor", St. Bonaventure, with a focus on his inspiring example to a life of holiness. Why is St. Bonaventure such an important saint, even today? Why should Catholics nurture a devotion to St. Bonaventure?
What exactly were "the seven last words of Christ"? Find out with Fr. Robert Nixon, translator of The Seven Last Words of Christ by St. Bonaventure, now available in English for the very first time, exclusively from TAN Books. This elegant translation is an incredible gift to the Church, rescuing St. Bonaventure's work from being lost to the ages. Discover Christ's real "seven last words" and how we, as 21st-century Catholics, can live by them.
St. Bonaventure was a highly successful man in his time — a bishop, writer, professor, and world-class philosopher. Yet, he remained humble and invested his talents in ways that glorified God through his writing and teaching. What can the humble life of this great saint teach us about the pursuit of perfection in our own lives?
Fr. Robert Nixon calls Thomas à Kempis a model for our own holiness and "the quiet achiever" for the deep humility he exhibited throughout his successful life. May we all learn from his edifying example in our own lives.
