Description:
A simple way for young children to explore the ways we 'see' God.
To young children, the world is full of things to see and touch.
This little book gently invites children, 2-4 years to become aware of God's presence.
From the late Roman Empire onwards, monasteries and convents were a common sight throughout Europe. But who were monasteries for? What kind of people founded and maintained them? And how did monasticism change over the thousand years or so of the Middle Ages?
Andrew Jotischky traces the history of monastic life from its origins in the fourth century to the sixteenth. He shows how religious houses sheltered the poor and elderly, cared for the sick, and educated the young. They were centres of intellectual life that owned property and exercised power but also gave rise to new developments in theology, music, and art.
This book brings together the Orthodox and western stories, as well as the experiences of women, to show the full picture of medieval monasticism for the first time. It is a fascinating, wide-ranging account that broadens our understanding of life in holy orders as never before.

Description:
The Vatican released Magnifica Humanitas, Latin for "Magnificent Humanity", on 25 May 2026, making it the first papal encyclical devoted primarily to artificial intelligence. Pope Leo XIV, signed the 42,300-word document at St Peter's Basilica on 15 May 2026, exactly 135 years after his namesake Pope Leo XIII published Rerum Novarum, the foundational 1891 encyclical on labour rights during the Industrial Revolution.
On 25 May at the Vatican, theologian Anna Rowlands presented key themes from Pope Leo XIV?s encyclical Magnifica humanitas, focused on protecting human dignity in the age of artificial intelligence. Rowlands described the document as an urgent moral intervention, arguing that society can no longer delay confronting the social, political, and economic consequences of AI. She stressed that decisions about technology must not be left solely to corporations or profit-driven systems, but should include the voices of workers, migrants, families, and communities most affected by digital change.
Rowlands warned against "posthuman" visions that treat people as replaceable parts within algorithmic systems, emphasizing instead the value of human limitation, solidarity, and participation. She said the encyclical challenges the world to recover a shared moral imagination rooted in justice, love, and the common good. Ultimately, she presented Magnifica humanitas as both a critique of technological domination and an invitation to build a more humane and compassionate society together.

Description:
From biblical times and throughout the ages, people of faith have walked and prayed. There's something profoundly reorienting about integrating prayer with our embodied experience of forward movement.
Spiritual director Deborah Gregory offers 33 walking meditations centered on the questions, "Where am I?" and "Where am I going?" Each walk includes creative prompts, prayer, and Ignatian Scripture contemplation to help you discern God's presence, voice, and leading. Walk alone or with a friend as you deepen your awareness of who you are and who you are becoming.
Towards the end of her life, Simone Weil (1909-43) was working on a tragedy, Venice Saved. Appearing in English for the first time, this play explores the realisation of Weil's own thoughts on tragedy. A figure of affliction, a central theme in Weil's religious metaphysics, the central character offers a unique insight into Weil's broader philosophical interest in truth and justice, and provides a fresh perspective on the wider conception of tragedy itself.
Set during a 1618 plot by Spanish mercenaries to sack Venice, the play follows Jaffier, who betrays the conspirators out of compassion for the city's beauty. This edition includes an introduction to Weil's life and thought, notes on the play and its translation, and further reading, opening a new perspective on Weil as a literary figure.
