Monastic life and its counter-cultural wisdom come alive in the stories and lessons of Br. Paul Quenon, OCSO, during his more than five decades as a Trappist at the Abbey of Gethsemani. He served as a novice under Thomas Merton, and he also welcomed some of the monastery's more well-known visitors to Merton's hermitage. In Praise of the Useless Life includes Quenon's quiet reflections on what it means to live each day with careful attentiveness. The humble peace and simplicity of the monastery and of Quenon's daily life are beautifully portrayed in this memoir.

Spiritual warfare is a battle against the dark forces of the enemy. It is a fight that has eternal consequences. It is serious business, and rightly so. But have we been so focused on the darkness that we have overlooked the Light? Many of us exhaust ourselves striving against Satan in our own strength, unknowingly employing the enemy's own tactics rather than resting in Christ's triumphant finished work. These methods frustrate us and keep us from experiencing victory and deliverance.

Not long after Martin Luther's defiance of the Church in 1517, dialogue between Protestants and Catholics broke down, brother turned against brother, and devastating religious wars erupted across Europe. Desperate to restore the peace and recover the unity of Faith, Catholic theologians clarified and reaffirmed Catholic doctrines, but turned as well to another form of evangelization: the arts.

Kaum einer kannte den deutschen Papst so gut und keiner war in den letzten Jahren so nahe an seiner Seite: Georg Gänswein begleitete Benedikt XVI. nahezu drei Jahrzehnte bis zu dessen Tod. Gänswein kennt Joseph Ratzinger als Glaubenspräfekten in Rom, er war einer der wichtigsten Vertrauten in seiner Zeit als Papst und er weiß, was wirklich hinter dem spektakulären Amtsverzicht steckte. Darüber spricht Gänswein in diesem Buch offen und ehrlich. Genauso schreibt er über die Jahre nach dem Rücktritt und das Leben mit »zwei« Päpsten im Vatikan.
