Two fantastic sources of Catholic erudition and devotion merit the attention of readers.
The first comes from the master of the spiritual life, Dom Mary Eugene Boylan, who wrote a chapter in his book This Tremendous Lover on study and reading. It falls very much in line with Brother Francis’ vision for forming the lay apostles who will sanctify themselves in truth and work for the conversion of America. That chapter is online here. It’s a rather large PDF file (6062 k).
The second comes from my own teacher, Brother Francis. His recorded lectures are a treasury of holy wisdom. They will inspire, inform, and motivate the apostolic Catholics we need to convert America. Now, in one 424 k PDF file, there is a list of all of Brother Francis’ available lectures. Do yourself and give some of these a listen. You may end up getting hooked!
