Rebuilding the Christian Civilization Is it too late to reverse our "culture of death"? Pope John Paul II didn't think so. That is why he devised a grand strategy called the New Evangelization with the ultimate goal of building a "civilization of love". Dr. Scott Hahn, lay theologian, presents the biblical blueprint for the Holy Father's building project, along with practical steps we can use to implement this plan in our own homes.

This is a call to arms for Catholics! Dr. Hahn challenges us to turn the tide in the battle for our Church and our families. Kelly - Gainesville, FL

The Saving Power of Divine Mercy

The Saving Power of Divine Mercy Pope John Paul II said that Divine Mercy is THE message for the third millennium and God's gift to our time. There is nothing that mankind needs more than Christ's Divine Mercy. To help us avail ourselves of that loving mercy, Fr. Brooks focuses on what we know of God's Mercy, our response to His Love, how we can become merciful to others, and how to become apostles of mercy. Bonus: At the end of this presentation, the Divine Mercy chaplet is led by Fr. Francis Peffley, Mark Forrest - an Irish tenor, and Muriel Forrest.

Wow! A much needed message full of hope and encouragement for all souls cut off from God through sin. A promise of mercy from our Savior. Jesus, I Trust in You!! Consuelo - Wichita, KS

Looking Beyond

Looking Beyond Presented by Lighthouse Catholic Youth: Dr. John Bergsma, Associate Professor of Biblical Theology at Franciscan University of Steubenville, unpacks and unlocks the Gospel of John in this fascinating talk given to a group of college students. In Dr. Bergma’s humorous and deeply He shows that John’s use of the word “signs” for Jesus’ miracles is no accident. In fact, these signs actually point to the seven Sacraments of the Catholic Church. As Dr. Bergsma makes his case, it becomes more and more clear that the similarities between sign and sacrament are no coincidence, and that the Gospel of John is a deeply Catholic book.
