Do you know why it's necessary that scandals beset the Church?
Do you know how to tell if you're responding to the unique gifts God has given you?
God speaks to you. Are you drowning him out?
* * *
Christ hid the
answers to all these
questions in His Parables.
He knew we couldn't
handle full knowledge of
the state of our souls, or even
what heaven is.
So he gave us His
parables as clues to
the mystery of paradise.
Those clues are revealed to you in this new book by popular author and EWTN television host, Fr. George Rutler.
In these pages, Fr. Rutler guides you through all 24 parables, unveiling their hidden meanings and unlocking profound spiritual advice.
When you join Fr. Rutler on this enriching tour of Christ's parables, you'll learn:
The Mustard Seed Why it gave hope to the early Church and prefigures her glorious future.
The Hidden Treasure Are you responding to the unique gifts Christ has given you?
The Unmerciful Servant Not only must you forgive, you must convert the offender. Are you a channel for God's grace?
Laborers in the Vineyard Are you letting selfishness and pride get in the way of the salvation of your neighbor's soul?
The Two Sons The dangers of agnosticism. Are you guilty? You may be astonished at the answer.
The Ten Talents God has given you a special gift. Do you know what it is, and how you should use it?
The Good Samaritan Do you know the most overlooked element of this parable? It may surprise you.
The Rich Man and Lazarus Learn the evils of self-sufficiency, and the dangers of taking gifts for granted.

How to know when miracles are from God, the devil, or the imagination
There are more false claims about miracles than nearly anything else — claims by skeptics and believers alike, few of whom know what the Church actually says about miracles.
The result is a popular culture whose muddled concepts of miracles deny us any sense of the real character, meaning, and majesty of those events, and leaves us blind to compelling evidence that miracles still occur regularly, even in our day.
Now comes the remedy: Understanding Miracles, the book that gives you the most comprehensive, careful, and thoughtful discussion of miracles available today.
In reading Understanding Miracles your eyes will be opened as you finally discover what the Church really teaches about miracles and you'll learn:
- What a miracle is (there is a good chance your understanding is wrong)
- The particular miracles we are required to accept; and those we are free to doubt.
- The five kinds of miracles (and why it makes a difference)
- The seven marks of every authentic miracle (can you name even two?)
- The benefits that miracles always bring (and the "benefits" that lead the Church — and should lead you! — to doubt that an inexplicable even is miraculous)
- The Eucharist: it's a mystery but not strictly-speaking a miracle. Do you know why?
- And countless other topics to deepen your knowledge and understanding of miracles, and draw you closer to the Author of them all.
