On the Holy Spirit - St Basil
source: https://ccel.org/ This classic exposition of Trinitarian doctrine eloquently sets forth the distinction yet perpetual communion of the divine Persons. Without explicitly calling the Spirit "God, " St Basil demonstrates that He, like the Son, is of the same nature with the Father.

Confessions [2/2] - St Augustine
Confessions is generally considered one of Augustine's most important texts. It is widely seen as the first Western Christian autobiography ever written, and was an influential model for Christian writers throughout the Middle Ages . Professor Henry Chadwick wrote that Confessions will "always rank among the great masterpieces of western literature." The work is not a complete autobiography, as it was written during Saint Augustine's early 40s and he lived long afterwards, producing another important work, The City of God . Nonetheless, it does provide an unbroken record of his development…

Eugenics and Other Evils - G K Chesterton
read by David Grizzly Smith . Source: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIQTLNiaJzSWOFz5lSfdn6Q In Eugenics and Other Evils , Chesterton attacked eugenics as Parliament was moving towards passage of the Mental Deficiency Act 1913 . Some backing the ideas of eugenics called for the government to sterilise people deemed "mentally defective"; this view did not gain popularity but the idea of segregating them from the rest of society and thereby preventing them from reproducing did gain traction. These ideas disgusted Chesterton who wrote, "It is not only openly said, it is eagerly urged that the…

The Everlasting Man [2/2] - GK Chesterton
Read by David Grizzly Smith: https://www.youtube.com/c/DavidGrizzlySmith The Everlasting Man is a Christian apologetics book written by G. K. Chesterton, published in 1925. It is, to some extent, a deliberate rebuttal of H. G. Wells' The Outline of History, disputing Wells' portrayals of human life and civilisation as a seamless development from animal life and of Jesus Christ as merely another charismatic figure. Chesterton detailed his own spiritual journey in Orthodoxy, but in this book he tries to illustrate the spiritual journey of humanity, or at least of Western civilisation. The…

On Holiness of Life - St Bonaventure
St. Bonaventure, the Seraphic Doctor, and also called the “Second Founder” of the Fransican order offers this brief work on the way of holiness. Written at the request and for Blessed Isabella a Poor Clare and friend of Bonaventure (who was the sister of St. Louis King of France) it is a brief, but complete treatise on ascetical and mystical theology. Wit and charm abound in the work, such is the chapter where Bonaventure discusses chattering nuns and so is the seriousness of devotion in the Chapters on the passion of Christ. Most notably is how down to earth the work is, both in being…

The Life of St. Patrick
St. Patrick was Christs chosen servant to bring the Irish people out of the darkness of paganism and into the light of Christianity. He was a mighty miracle worker, an apostle of Rome, a healer of lepers, a destroyer of idols, a scourge to evil men, a severe Ascetic, he had the both the gifts of prophecy and of mystical prayer. This book written by Father William Morris provides an overview of his entire life from the most reliable historical records and will leave the listener amazed at the mighty power of St. Patrick who perhaps was one of (perhaps even the most) effective missionary in…

St Bernard Homilies [3/3]: For Christmas Eve and Christmas
St Bernard of Clairvaux is considered the last father of the Church and is called the Doctor Mellifluus, or the honey doctor, because his Praise of Jesus Christ flowed like honey. St Bernard instructs us on: The Left Hand and the Right Hand of our infant Lord. How the pride are blind? The difference between the widom of the world and flesh versus what is peaceable and chaste. How the infant Christ was the fountain of devotion spoken of by Isaiah. How the Nativity is medicine from the Good Physician? How those who are engaged in useful labor and employment are fit to be visited by angels.…
