The pocket A - Z of the Knights Templar
By Napier, Gordon
From Aaron to Zion, an invaluable reference of the people, places, and themes of the Crusades, the Knights Templar, and their legacyThe Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ and of the Temple of Solomon, popularly known as the Knights Templar or the Order of the Temple, were among the most famous of Christian military orders. The order existed for about two centuries in the Middle Ages, andwas created after the First Crusade of 1096 to ensure the safety of European pilgrims to Jerusalem after its conquest. Officially endorsed by the Catholic church in 1129, the order became a favored charity across Europe, and grew rapidly. Templar knights, easily recognizable in their white mantle with a distinct red cross, were some of the best equipped, trained, and disciplined fighting units of the Crusades.

The Foundations of Mindfulness
By Harrison, Eric
An Essential Addition to Mindfulness LiteratureWho among us does not want to discern right from wrong and useful from useless in any situation? Thirty years ago - long before the modern mindfulness movement - Eric Harrison began teaching meditation as a secular, science-based therapy. Paradoxically, he rooted his practice in the Buddhas original teaching: the Satipatthana Sutta. The 13 steps in the Sutta offer readers the full benefits of mindfulness: attention, good judgment, and tranquility. Now - informed by a lifetime spent teaching tens of thousands to meditate - Harrison offers both a new translation of the Sutta (the first in modern English) and lucid guidance on how to apply it today.

Yours, Jack

Most of these letters are currently only available in their entirety - a collection consisting of three hefty tomes. Yours, Jack features the best inspirational readings and sage counsel culled from C. S. Lewis's letters, offering an accessible look at this great author's personal vision for the spiritual life.

The Saints of St. Peter’s Square
By Padovese, Luigi
"This edition of Bishop Padoveses "Piccoli dialoghi fra santi di marmo" provides the Church an important resource for spiritual development. In the midst of time spent in Rome for meetings of Pope Francis Council of Cardinals, I occasionally have the opportunity to walk through St. Peters Square. At those times I consider the depth and breadth of the contributions to the life of the Church made by the saints whose images stand guard over the square, each day overseeing all who come and go in the midst of the life of the Church. Though Bishop Padoveses image is not above the Colonnade, we can consider him as among the most powerful witnesses in light of his lifelong commitment to the work of the Church and having made the ultimate sacrifice in that service."- Cardinal Sean OMalley, Archbishop of Boston
