insignificant. With charity, balance, and candor, Dr. Hahn shows us how
Islam presents the most formidable challenge to Christianity in the
Third millennium.

The Seven Levels of Intimacy
The Seven Levels of Intimacy
True intimacy means sharing who we really are with another person. We have to move beyond the clichés in conversation and get beneath the surface which involves taking a risk because in doing this, our weaknesses and imperfections will be made known. Matthew teaches practical ways to share ourselves more deeply with those we love and change the way we approach our relationships forever.

Get to Know the Mother of God
Get to Know the Mother of God
Presented by Lighthouse Catholic Youth: There’s a little bit about Mary in Scripture. We can glean a bit more from the Tradition of the Church. But where can we go to get the complete picture, to find out about the whole Mary? In an engaging style, Chris Padgett does just that as he walks us through what the Bible has to say about the Mother of God. What has she meant to the Church throughout the centuries, what have the saints told us about her, and most importantly, what we can learn from her ourselves? This CD also includes selections from The Rosary Project, a unique celebration of prayer and song from Chris Padgett.
Simple and powerful... Just like Our Blessed Mother! Elliot - North Aurora, IL

Fr. Michael Schmitz
Presented by Lighthouse Catholic Youth: Father Michael Schmitz tackles some of the most difficult topics in the Church today.

Customer Comments
Humor and inspired teaching make this one of the best talks for Catholics I have ever heard! Brad - Faribault, MN
An excellent and vital message for young people today, given in their own language. Lorraine - Vancouver, BC
This should be mandatory listening for every middle school student, their parents, and their grandparents! Deacon Bob - Kingsport, TN
Best talk I've heard by Fr Mike. I subscribe to his homily podcast, and I can't recommend this highly enough. Will definitely encourage Youth Ministers to get this one. David - Bend, OR
It really put real life situations into perspective, especially how to better understand why sex outside of marriage is so damaging to every person. Also, the explanation about homosexuality and how it is no worse then any other sin was really great! I will definitely share this CD with friends and family. Also, the bonus talk about contraception was wonderful and made a lot of sense to me! Bree - Rapid City, SD
Very good talk - good point that the Catholic Church is the safest place for those with same sex attraction. Good explanation of what 'disordered' means - how it is out of true love, true charity, that the Church calls those with same sex attractions to chastity. Good that he mentions COURAGE as the ministry for those with same sex attractions. Martha - Pasadena, CA
I thought this talk was funny, inspirational, and what we all need to hear as Catholics! I am so excited to give this to my young adult children! Colleen - Bothell, WA
I enjoyed how thorough it was and appreciated the true take on the Church's teaching on homosexuality and contraception. The "media" seems to try to tear down Catholicism for it's supposed "hatred", and this CD reinforces the fact that this is FAR from Catholic teaching. Every Catholic and non-Catholic should listen this!!! Sheila - Wellfleet, MA
Fr. Michael Schmidt speaks with such clarity. I wish every secular church and doubting and challenged Catholics could hear this presentation about the beautiful truth which Father teaches. Great addition to your library. Linda - Chelmsford, MA
I am 47 years old, and I liked that the talk was aimed at younger people. We need to tell them what the Catholic Church really teaches. I also liked that Fr. Mike put a little humor in it. It was a great talk! Greg - Midland, TX
This talk is meant for all of us. It challenges each of us to remember that we're broken AND made in God's image. We are not meant to judge, only to love! This CD also challenged me, as a married woman, to remember that every little thing I do with my body matters! I've recommended this talk to all of my family members. Just fabulous! Jocelyn - Versailles, OH
I was very impressed with this talk. Not only was it very informative and covered the topic well, but it was extrememly entertaining. Two thumbs way up!! John - Cody, WY
Fr. Michael stated that every person who comes to him who is interested in the same sex states that they are struggling with that fact. I liked the part where Father said that the safest and best place for people struggling with these feelings IS in the Catholic Church, and his reasons for stating this. I also enjoyed hearing about the statistics that Professor Smith gave at the end of the CD. Mary - Ocala, FL
I think the explanation of the Church's view on homosexuals was excellent. Joseph - FL
The safest place for a gay person (someone with homosexual tendencies) should be in the Catholic Church. This establishes both that (1) all forms of discrimination against gay people are anti-Catholic; and (2) the Catholic Church isn't withholding anything that is good and natural for a gay person. The Catholic Church loves all her members, knowing that each struggle with different temptations. Louise - London, ON
