Now I'm reading Michael O'Brien's "Eclipse of the Sun" for the second time. I'm also reading "The Devil's Final Battle" by Father Paul Kramer, but wouldn't really recommend it to the people on this board though I'm loving it.

brandelynmarie Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 Ok.... ....I'm currently reading: [i]Arise From Darkness[/i] by Fr. Benedict Groeshel [i]Contemplative Prayer[/i] by Thomas Merton (actually, I haven't started it just yet!) and I finished [i]Hostage to the Devil[/i] by Fr. Malachi Martin.....I actually will have a hard time recommending this book because of the disturbing descriptions of the exorcisms...but my respect for exorcists & what they suffer for the salvation of souls has increased a hundredfold... ....My main understanding of evil right now is that it's hallmarks are confusion, lies & hatred...The book really did help me to see this more clearly...& that so much of what passes as entertainment in this world is straight from you-know-who...

Fides_et_Ratio Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 I'm reading [u]Truth and Tolerance[/u] by Ratzinger/Pope Benedict XVI and then hoping to finish up his [u]Milestones[/u] and [u]Many Religions, One Covenant[/u] which I started quite a while ago. I'm hoping to finish up the dozen or so books that I started and read about half-way through without finishing last semester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil Red Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 just finished [u]The Book Thief[/u] by Mark Zusak (sp?). a very good book, not a religious book per se, but very good nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
