“Cuando se amplía, puede ver que el cigoto, nuestra primera célula en la concepción, parece como una hostia de comunión, la Eucaristía, el Cuerpo de Cristo. La corona radiata que rodea la celda es como una custodia, el recipiente que contiene la Eucaristía”. ~ El Dr. Patrick Castle (Enero 23)
“Si no crucificamos nuestra carne con sus pasiones y deseos, nuestros deseos carnales crucificarán nuestra mente”. ~ El Dr. Rich Reich (Jul 28)

Our screens are not morally neutral. The devices that we are so attached to affect our perception of the world. Unless we use them in a way contrary to the way in which they are intended to be used, we will find ourselves imprisoned in our own minds and living in a boring and lifeless world. In this book, Fr. Chris Seith exposes the spiritual apathy consuming our lives and, more importantly, God’s response to our imprisonment. In Jesus Christ, God has set us free from our spiritual malaise and rekindles in us a sense of wonder at the beauty of reality.

By Sister Marysia Weber, RSM, author of Screen Addiction: Why You Can’t Put That Phone Down
Smartphone use outside of work-related activity preoccupies the average American for 5.4 hours each day. In his book, Rekindling Wonder: Touching Heaven in a Screen Saturated World, Father Christopher Seith argues that deleting apps or reducing screentime isn’t enough to rehabilitate a generation dependent on digital stimulants. Constantly irradiated by screens, our culture is sick with what the desert fathers called “the noonday devil”—acedia. He vividly highlights how ever-increasing hours spent captivated by screens isolates persons and threatens to precipitate an existential crisis. Acedia’s daughter vices—despair, distaste for the sacred, and distraction– dispose us to estrangement.
Without condemning technology, Father Seith observes that dependence on the digital makes life more convenient and less painful, but not more human. Father Seith poignantly describes how a community could devolve into a network of individuals programmed to escape misery and anxiety through virtual algorithms.
Father Seith articulates that with attachment to digital devices, we have forgotten the value of human life and our ontological end to make God’s love present in the world. He reiterates that the primordial and sacred Church has something liberating to offer in the midst of a dehumanizing world.
Father Seith seeks not to offer practical solutions but to provoke thought. I highly recommend Father Seith’s book as it invites a world eclipsed by the modern noonday devil into the Light of Truth.
“Father Seith’s book Rekindling Wonder: Touching Heaven in a Screen Saturated World is a thought-provoking exposé about the necessity of exposing our modern noonday devil—digital devices—to the Light of Truth.” – Sr. Marysia Weber, RSM, author of Screen Addiction: Why You Can’t Put That iPhone Down
“Put down your devices and read Rekindling Wonder. This is a most important work for our time. Fr. Seith has diagnosed a silent, omnipresent and deadly spiritual condition. Gratefully, in this engaging book he leads the reader on a journey to healing through trust and joy with Jesus Christ.” – Most Reverend William D. Byrne, Bishop of Springfield, MA
“In Rekindling Wonder: Touching Heaven in a Screen Saturated World, Fr. Christopher J. Seith lays bare the true nature of acedia, showing us how to find stability within an inconstant, digitally-mediated world by grounding ourselves in the truth of Jesus Christ.” – Matt Fradd, author of Does God Exist? A Socratic Dialogue on the Five Ways of Thomas Aquinas
“Do you worry that you are too tied to a smartphone? Do you worry about the consequences? Have you found nothing that resolves the problem? Then turn with author Father Chris Seith to the age-old Christian wisdom about acedia. A new Christ-centered understanding of your experience will set you free.” – Fr. Timothy M. Gallagher, OMV, author of The Discernment of Spirits: An Ignatian Guide to Everyday Living
“This book, written with deep spiritual insight and theological wisdom, deftly applies ancient Christian wisdom to the ever-expanding reach of our current technology.” – John S. Grabowski, Ph.D., Professor of Moral Theology/Ethics, School of Theology and Religious Studies, The Catholic University of America
“Father Seith has accurately diagnosed acedia as the condition of contemporary Man. Such a condition will not be disarmed by more data or information provided by the internet. It will only be wrestled to the ground by the in-breaking of the presence of Christ. It is Presence that heals the boring self-enclosed, self-imposed world we inhabit. A world of our making, a world built up through our patterned and addictive relationship to technology. Here in these pages we find a way out of boredom and obsessive control seeking. But the way out is a way of intimate healing, a way of welcoming the Divine Presence IN. Only the harrowing of ‘our’ hell by the Christ will set us free. This beautifully written and erudite book will give us the courage to say YES to this in-breaking, this rescue mission born of God’s love.” – Deacon Jim Keating, Professor of Spiritual Theology at Kenrick-Glennon Seminary
“Rekindling Wonder engages the reader with a vision of living a more authentic relationship with God and man.” – Dr. Sebastian Mahfood, OP, author of Teaching and Learning in the Age of COVID19: Faith-Based — Online and Emergency Remote
Fr. Christopher J. Seith was ordained a priest of the Archdiocese of Washington in 2014. After serving as parochial vicar at Our Lady of Mercy parish in Potomac, MD, he began his doctoral studies at The Catholic University of America while living at St. John Paul II Seminary.
In the Spring of 2020, he successfully defended his dissertation in which he examined Josef Pieper’s thought to argue that digital devices, unless they are used in a way contrary to their intended use, will imprison their users within a workaday world and damage their ability to joyfully celebrate the sacred mysteries.
He is currently the Director of Spiritual Formation at St. John Paul II Seminary.

“In this book, Fr. Billy walks us through a path of understanding how our Christian journey is a side-by-side walk with Jesus who gave us His all, including his Body. No Longer I helps followers of Christ remain determined in their living the life of faith knowing that we draw our strength from the Lord in whose mission we share.

“This book was exactly what I needed. Father Dennis Billy takes us back to the foundation — Jesus — and reminds us of the simple beauty and profound power of the Gospel. Within this slim volume we find all of the time-tested wisdom we need to build our lives upon the Rock.” – Shane Kapler, author of Marrying the Rosary to the Divine Mercy Chaplet

Dennis Billy, not only elucidated the meaning of Christ’s Gospel narrative and how to interpret it, but he also and more importantly, pointed out the practical ways of living it: engaging in a regular pattern of prayer, reading and meditating on the Scripture, being frequently present in the sacraments, and being an eagar and willing servant.” – Fr. Paul Ezinando, Jesus Christ: Man of Prayer
“After concisely yet thoroughly defining Christ’s gospel narrative and the ways of interpreting it, Fr. Billy assists us in claiming that narrative as our own by providing suggestions for deepening our relationship with God and how to share our love for Him with others.” – Holly Garman, author of The Holy Heart

This book is about the vision Jesus sets before his hearers of a world ruled by justice and love. The eight beatitudes provide hope to all who listen to and follow the call of the kingdom in their hearts. Without that hope, there would be no place in the human heart for the Spirit of God to dwell, and the kingdom of God would not be able to reach its completion. With that hope, all things are possible–even the unspoken miracle that turns a hateful heart into a tranquil reservoir of divine peace.

In this work, Fr. Paul Ezinando demonstrates that though we have knowledge of Jesus Christ from various perspectives, we cannot know Him enough. To help us come to a better knowledge of Jesus Christ, Fr Ezinando examines Him (Jesus) as a man of prayer in the light of St. Luke’s gospel, looking briefly at the concept of prayer from a historical perspective, analyzing certain moments of prayer in the life of Jesus – His baptism, withdrawal, choice of the apostles, transfiguration, institution of the lord’s prayer and passion – and reflecting on the significance these times of prayer for us.
This book contains a French translation of the text.
