Bible-Based Catholicism and Spiritual Inspirations

by Robert J. Ferretti, M.D.

This book outlines a Catholic perspective on faith, deeply rooted in biblical references and theological reasoning. Dr. Ferretti aims to deepen Catholics’ understanding of their faith while providing non-Catholics and non-believers with insights into the principles of Catholicism. Drawing on personal experiences and insights from readings about the lives and revelations of Catholic saints, Dr. Ferretti advocates for embracing sacrifice and detachment from materialism as pathways to spiritual growth. The work invites readers to reflect on faith’s scriptural foundations, aiming to foster a deeper commitment to living a Christ-centered life in accordance with Catholic teachings.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Dr. Robert J. Ferretti holds an Associate of Applied Science Degree (A.A.S.) in Plant Biology from the State University of New York, and a Bachelor of Science Degree (B.S.) from Cornell University, with dual majors in Food Science and Cellular Biology. He continued his education obtaining a Master of Science (M.S.) degree from Cornell University, with a major in Nutrition with a minor in Biochemistry. He then attended New York Medical College, in Valhalla New York, and he was awarded his M.D. degree. His internship was in Internal Medicine at the University of Massachusetts affiliated hospital of the Berkshire Medical Center. He then worked full time in primary care and urgent care medicine for three years. He subsequently entered a diagnostic radiology program at the Long Island Jewish Medical Center, in New Hyde Park New York, and achieved board certification.  Afterwards, he entered a fellowship program in Neuroradiology at the Temple University School of Medicine in Philadelphia Pennsylvania. He then worked as a general Diagnostic Radiologist with a specialty in Neuroradiology for fourteen years. Following that, he worked for six and a half years as an Addiction Medicine Specialist and obtained board certification in 2015.

In addition to this background in fields of biology and human medicine, he has also spent many years working as a volunteer sidewalk counselor outside several of the New York abortion centers, beginning in 1999. He also has read many books on the spiritual lives and miracles of several Catholic saints and mystics, and the many revelations that God gave to them. These experiences were in addition to developing a deeper daily prayer life with praying the daily rosary for the past six years. His part time outreach work was extended to helping the homeless population with assisting in providing meals and on the spot counseling beginning in 2023. More recently he has devoted time visiting patients in a rehabilitative nursing facility, while assisting a Eucharistic Minister in bringing the Holy Eucharist to the Catholic patients. His future plans are to begin a lecture series on the topics contained in this book.

La disciplina spirituale: Meditazioni sull’insegnamento di Frithjof Schuon por James S. Cutsinger e tradotto da Marco Toti

La disciplina spirituale: Meditazioni sull’insegnamento di Frithjof Schuon por James S. Cutsinger e tradotto da Marco Toti

La disciplina spirituale: Meditazioni sull’insegnamento di Frithjof Schuon

Scritto da James S. Cutsinger e tradotto da Marco Toti

Si tratta di un’introduzione alla scuola perennialista della filosofia religiosa comparata e di una guida per il lettore generale che cerca risposte intellettualmente serie ma accessibili alle domande sulla vita spirituale.

Due libri in uno, La disciplina spirituale è un’introduzione per gli studiosi alla scuola perennialista della filosofia religiosa comparata e allo stesso tempo una guida per il lettore generale che cerca risposte intellettualmente serie ma accessibili alle domande sulla vita spirituale.

Gli studiosi troveranno un’introduzione completa all’opera di Frithjof Schuon, la principale figura contemporanea della scuola perennialista o tradizionalista della religione comparata. Scritto da James S. Cutsinger, una delle massime autorità accademiche della filosofia perenne, il libro fornisce un commento dettagliato sull’intera gamma degli scritti spirituali di Schuon.

Ma il libro si rivolge anche ai lettori curiosi e alla ricerca in generale. Composto in uno stile semplice e colloquiale, si presenta come una lettera aperta agli studenti dell’autore. L’obiettivo è quello di tagliare con la banalità di molti insegnamenti spirituali odierni e di fornire risposte intellettualmente serie ma accessibili a domande tipicamente poste da cinici e scettici, credenti conservatori e persone attratte dalle cosiddette religioni “new age”.

I consigli dell’autore assumono la forma di una serie di meditazioni su Verità, Virtù, Bellezza e Preghiera, che Schuon considera gli elementi fondamentali di ogni autentico cammino spirituale. I temi affrontati, sia teorici che pratici, comprendono le prove di Dio, il problema del male, le virtù classiche, la predestinazione e la libertà, il simbolismo e la gerarchia cosmica, l’arte sacra, il rapporto tra metodo spirituale e grazia, le tecniche di concentrazione e meditazione, il ruolo del maestro spirituale e il destino umano. Il libro si conclude con un epilogo sulla nota tesi di Schuon sull’“unità trascendente delle religioni”.

TESTIMONIANZE

“Una magnifica introduzione al più grande pensatore religioso del nostro secolo”. — Huston Smith, autore di “ Le religioni del mondo”.

“Questo libro sarà ricordato con gratitudine dai migliori lettori come una chiave d’oro che spalanca le porte della fuga dalle tensioni interiori e dalla confusione mentale”. — Martin Lings, già custode dei manoscritti orientali del British Museum.

SULL’AUTORE

James Sherman Cutsinger (4 maggio 1953 – 19 febbraio 2020) è stato autore, editore e professore emerito di studi religiosi presso l’Università della Carolina del Sud, le cui opere si sono concentrate principalmente sulla religione comparata, sulla moderna scuola tradizionalista della filosofia perenne, sulla spiritualità cristiana orientale e sulla tradizione mistica della Chiesa ortodossa orientale.

INFORMAZIONI SUL TRADUTTORE

Marco Toti, nato a Roma nel 1976, è dottore di ricerca in “Tradizioni e Istituzioni Religiose di Ambiente Circum-mediterraneo”; è stato borsista “Fulbright” e presso l’Accademia dei Lincei; è stato giudicato idoneo come professore universitario di seconda fascia di “Storia delle Religioni” (abilitazione nazionale, 2013). Ha pubblicato vari lavori concernenti argomenti di mistica e religioni comparate, con particolare attenzione al metodo di orazione esicasta ed all’iconografia cristiano-orientale, oltre che alcune questioni inerenti al “lessico dell’ascesi” in epoca tardo-antica, agli anni ’60 in prospettiva storico-teoretica e storico-intellettuale (Concilio Vaticano II, “tradizionalismo”, “nuovi movimenti religiosi”), alla storiografia storico-religiosa (“ermeneutica” e “scuola di Roma”), agli Indiani d’America. Ha studiato, effettuato ricerche e tenuto conferenze e seminari presso varie università ed istituti europei e statunitensi; ha vissuto e viaggiato, tra l’altro, in Francia, USA, Grecia, Marocco e nel Sudest asiatico; ha scritto decine di articoli di alta divulgazione ed in ambito pubblicistico (costume, politica, Chiesa, letteratura, attualità, storia “occulta”). Ultimamente, oltre ad insegnare in istituti superiori, si sta occupando di prospettive “metapolitiche” e – nell’ambito di un più ampio discorso relativo al legame tra lessico mistico e storia culturale – dei temi della memoria, della tradizione e della malinconia come “stimmung” di Occidente.

TESTIMONIALS

“A wonderful paradigm through which readers can learn liturgical theology with helpful ease, practical application, and an obvious invitation to grow spiritually.” – from the Foreword by Rev. Michael W. Davis, KCHS

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

The Reverend Nicholas L. Gregoris (1972-2024) was a member of Priestly Society of Saint John Henry Cardinal Newman who held theological degrees from the Pontifical Gregorian University and the Pontifical Faculty Marianum, both in Rome, as well as a doctorate in Catholic school administration from Pontifex University. He served as the managing editor of The Catholic Response magazine.
 
Fr Nicholas was the major translator of The Mission of Catholic Schools: A Century of Reflection and Direction, a perfect resource for curriculum development, Catholic identity assessment, professional development seminars and the creation of mission statements. This anthology originated from the repeated wish of “practitioners” to have a handy collection of ecclesiastical documents on Catholic schools. Under that rubric, included are papal teachings, as well as texts from the Second Vatican Council, the Congregation for Catholic Education, the Code of Canon Law, the Catechism of the Catholic Church and the Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church. Although the Church has been engaged in the education apostolate from her earliest days, it was deemed necessary to take on a reasonable focus—a century of reflection seemed to fit the bill, beginning with the pontificate of Benedict XV and ending with that of Francis.

Minding Mom: A Caregiver’s Devotional Story

by Lisa Livezey

Devotional writer Lisa Livezey understands the challenges of full-time caregiving atop an already-full life. Following her father’s sudden death, Lisa was plunged headlong into caring for her mother who was battling Alzheimer’s. With wisdom and candor, Lisa pairs every day and extraordinary caregiving moments with scriptures, prayers, and reflections. Caregivers will:

 
  • Feel recognized and valued
  • Laugh amidst the craziness
  • Experience God in the day-to-day
Hardback: $19.95 | Paperback $14.95 | $9.99 Kindle

TESTIMONIALS

 “I loved every page. I find it helped me to reflect on my last few months with Tony in a different way. Lisa’s thoughtful treatment of each situation encourages me to live in the moment more recognizing that every experience comes with eternal significance if we take the time to notice.” Cathy Witczak, Worldwide Marriage Encounter International Leader 2009-2014

“Through scripture and thought-provoking questions, Lisa has given us a guide to reflect on God’s goodness in our most difficult, heart wrenching circumstances. Her devotional is a gift to caregivers, family members and anyone seeking solace as they give of themselves to serve another.” – Janet Lozano, Co-Founder, Heart of the Father Ministries

“This is a heart-warming, gut-wrenching (in a good way), true life story that would touch all people. Caregivers can especially relate but death touches us all so everyone could benefit by reading this book. It isn’t a one-time read either – definitely something that will be referred to often and a “go-to” in trying times for comfort.” – Ave G., who retired early to care for her mother at home

“I love the blending of scripture, reflection, and real-life observations. Lisa’s very personal and insightful view sets Minding Mom apart from other books in this genre. I highly recommend that anyone who wants to contemplate life, where they’re going, and where they’ve been, not just read this book but sit with it and let it become absorbed into their system. They will be the richer for it.” – Ben Bongers, KM, Gerontologist, author, and contributor to eldercare textbooks

My Restless Heart Finds Rest in You by Edward Schallert

My Restless Heart Finds Rest in You by Edward Schallert

My Restless Heart Finds Rest in You

By Edward Schallert

My Restless Heart Finds Rest in You by Edward Schallert is a reflective exploration inspired by St. Augustine’s Confessions. Schallert, a retired professor and Cursillo participant, revisits the spiritual journey of Augustine, aligning his personal struggles with Augustine’s reflections. Central to the book is the interplay between faith, reason, and the human inclination toward idolatry.

Schallert discusses themes like idolatry of intellect, materialism, and worldly pursuits, using Augustine’s experiences as a framework. He highlights how Augustine’s journey—marked by intellectual pride, lust, and misplaced devotion—parallels contemporary struggles. Drawing on Augustine’s insights, Schallert emphasizes the transformative power of grace and the necessity of reconciling faith with reason to attain spiritual growth.

The author shares his own moments of spiritual transformation, particularly through the Cursillo experience, which reignited his engagement with Augustine’s work. Schallert underscores the importance of surrendering to God’s will, recognizing that true happiness lies in aligning oneself with divine purpose rather than worldly attachments.

Using Augustine’s meditations, Schallert offers daily reflections, encouraging readers to deepen their relationship with God through prayer, contemplation, and the embrace of grace. This book serves as both a personal testimony and a guide for others seeking spiritual renewal, emphasizing that human restlessness finds peace only in God.

Seasons of the Soul: An Intimate God in Liturgical Time by Sr. Carla Mae Streeter, OP

Seasons of the Soul: An Intimate God in Liturgical Time by Sr. Carla Mae Streeter, OP

Seasons of the Soul: An Intimate God in Liturgical Time

By Sr. Carla Mae Streeter, OP

The seasons of the soul are the seasons of the liturgical calendar. The liturgy is about a relationship, and Sr. Carla Mae’s gorgeous images, poetry and prose describe how the liturgy is a means of deepening our relationship with God communally. The material comes highly recommended by RCIA coordinators as a perfect introduction to how the liturgy is the place where a loving God invites us — individually and as a body — into an ever more intimate experience of the Trinitarian relationship.
 
Paperback: $12.95 | Kindle: $9.99

 

TESTIMONIALS

“This series of nourishing meditations on the liturgical seasons is written by an excellent theologian. In addition to the Introduction, which is simply flabbergasting, readers will be taken by the bodily, indeed the womanly character of her spirituality, her associating the whole cosmos with the Incarnation, and her adroit, poetic play with symbols. A profound, short book, which deserves to be read more than once.” Louis Roy, O.P., formerly Professor of Theology at Boston College, now teaching at the Dominican University College in Ottawa
Seasons of the Soul is a required text in the Lay Spiritual Formation Program at Aquinas Institute of Theology. With inspiring images and metaphors, Sr. Carla Mae invites the formation students to explore a deeper relationship with God and the Church through the lens of the liturgical cycle. Grounded in reality and the stuff of life, Seasons of the Soul finds a resonance with the life and spirituality of the lay minister.” Marian Love, MAPS, Director, Lay Spiritual Formation Program, Aquinas Institute of Theology, St. Louis, MO
“I recommend Seasons of the Soul to all who wish to enter more deeply into the spirituality of the liturgical seasons. The reflections, meditative questions, and poetry of Sr. Carla Mae present a sacred doorway through which insights into our humanity, our discipleship, and our relationship with Christ can be explored and which go beyond the interesting facts and rituals of the seasons into their life-giving meaning.” Joseph Milner, Director of Christian Initiation for the Archdiocese of St. Louis
“Rooted in the rhythms of the liturgy, this volume offers a rich resource for prayer and reflection in every season of life.” Mary Catherine Hilkert, O.P., Professor of Theology, University of Notre Dame
