Pope Francis offers this apostolic exhortation as a proclamation to the Church on the gospel. Written in his characteristic straightforward style, The Joy of the Gospel offers teaching on what the gospel truly means, and exhorts the Church to begin a new chapter in evangelization.

This volume contains a wealth of reflections and quotations from Pope Francis for each day of the year. With topics ranging from personal spiritual gems to discipleship, ecology, prayer, human rights, and advice on living a more fully devoted Christian life, these readings will inspire readers in their simplicity and purity of heart.

Pope Francis’ second encyclical, Laudato Si': On Care for Our Common Home, calls all Christians to a greater responsibility in stewardship of the planet. Criticizing the rampant consumerism and irresponsible development of the modern age, Francis says, “This encyclical is aimed at everyone. Let us pray that everyone can receive its message and grow in responsibility toward the common home that God has entrusted to us.” From climate change to poverty, technology to biodiversity, Pope Francis calls attention to the “grave responsibilities” we face and encourages “an honest and open debate so that particular interests or ideologies will not prejudice the common good.”

Lumen Fidei is the first encyclical of Pope Francis after being elected to the papacy in 2013. Lumen Fidei covers the virtue of faith, and follows the encyclicals written by Francis’ predecessor, Benedict XVI, on the virtues of hope and charity. Francis claims, “There is an urgent need, then, to see once again that faith is a light, for once the flame of faith dies out, all other lights begin to dim. The light of faith is unique, since it is capable of illuminating every aspect of human existence.” Lumen Fidei is divided into four chapters that discuss the history of faith in the Church from the time of Abraham, the relationship of faith and reason, the role of the Church in sharing faith and building up society, and concludes with a presentation of Mary as a model of faith.

The Joy of Love (Amoris Laetitia) is the post-synodal apostolic exhortation published in April 2016 that followed the two Synods on the family that convened in 2014 and 2015 by Pope Francis. It contains the most comprehensive statement of Catholic teaching on marriage and family since the last apostolic exhortation concerning marriage and family, Familaris Consortio, following the 1980 synod on the family. Astounding in its breadth and depth of teaching on marriage and family concerns, Pope Francis sought to refocus the Church’s attention on the centrality of the family for the life of the Church and address the myriad of concerns facing the family in the modern world. Now you have the chance to add The Joy of Love (Amoris Laetitia) to your library and study it alongside Familiaris Consortio, the Catechism, the Bible, and decide for yourself!

Simply put, very different. But these ponderings beg one more critical question: What exactly should the church be moving toward? In Walking with Jesus: A Way Forward for the Church, Pope Francis’ own words lead us to the answer. Francis urges us to make Jesus central in our individual lives and in the collective ...

In this “powerful” New York Times bestseller, Pope Francis offers a “clarion call to create a more just and sustainable world” (Publishers Weekly, starred review). In this book, written in collaboration with his biographer, Austen Ivereigh, Pope Francis explains why we must—and how we can—make the world safer, fairer, and healthier for all people now. During the COVID crisis, the beloved shepherd of over one billion Catholics saw the cruelty and inequity of our society exposed more vividly than ever before. He also saw, in the resilience, generosity, and creativity of so many people, the means to rescue our society, our economy, and our planet. In direct, powerful prose, Pope Francis urges us not to let the pain be in vain. He begins by exploring what this crisis can teach us about how to handle upheaval of any kind in our own lives and the world at large. With unprecedented candor, he reveals how three crises in his own life changed him dramatically. By its very nature, he shows,…

Pope Francis's impact on the modern world has already proved extraordinary. It is no surprise that he was voted Time magazine's Person of the Year (in 2013), joining the likes of Martin Luther King (1964) and President John F. Kennedy (1961). Francis has turned the Catholic Church upside-down, flung open the windows of the Vatican and started to purge the church of corruption, nepotism and financial skulduggery. But above all he is engaged with the poor, the starving and the marginalised. He has made important visits to troubled spots in the world and invariably people say his appearances change everything. Pope Francis is in constant dialogue with the outside world and with the universal Catholic Church. He likes being asked questions, finding it easy to respond, and maintains a good relationship with the press. In this new book are some of his most valuable engagements in dialogue form with people of all sorts and kinds. On the one hand, there is his recent engagement with priests…

The homilies and speeches of Archbishop Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio from 2009 through his election as Pope Francis in 2013. These writings provide an intimate glimpse into the theological, philosophical, scientific, and cultural-educational currents that forged the steady, loving, and nurturing leadership style with which Jorge Mario Bergoglio guided the Church in Buenos Aires, Argentina. That style has now done the same for the Church from Rome, a Church rocked by financial and moral scandals, and a world shaken by the worst global pandemic in a century. These writings were kneaded—a word he uses when talking about the work of molding the souls and character of youth and seminarians—in the relationships he formed in his bus rides to work and in his intense contact with all segments of the population. Because of that careful and prayerful process of kneading, they have found their full development in Bergoglio’s writing as Pope Francis, especially in Evangelii gaudium (November…

The beloved people's Pope reveals his views on the contentious political issues of our time—from immigration to climate change. Pope Francis met with French reporter and sociologist Dominique Wolton for an unprecedented series of twelve fascinating and timely conversations—open dialogues revolving around the political, cultural, and religious issues dominating communication and conflict around the world—now published in A Future of Faith: The Path of Change in Politics and Society. Inspiring and insightful, Pope Francis’s views on immigration, poverty, diversity, globalization, and more are borne from his Christian faith and basic humanity.

And for the first time, Pope Francis shares insights into his own personality, and the formation of his faith,…
