With our new publishing arm, we’ve launched important new books, including: Fulfilled in Christ, Authority of Women, and Head & Heart. Each of these titles responds to a different need in the Church today and I recommend them wholeheartedly. This summer, we also became the publisher of Nova et Vetera, a peer-reviewed journal which “provides an international forum for theological and philosophical studies from a Thomistic perspective.” Please visit NVJournal.net if you’re interested in subscribing. As always, we thank you for your support of the St. Paul Center and Emmaus Road and ask for your continued prayers. Please be assured of ours!
