Remembering God
In the summer of 2005, Kendall Ketterlin was living in Colorado Springs, buying his first home, working at a bank, and planning a fundraising trip to D.C. Six months later, he was on his way to theology school in Minnesota, leaving politics behind. What changed everything?
Remembering God recounts his two months as a Hurricane Katrina relief volunteer—first with the Red Cross in Louisiana, then with Catholic Charities in Mississippi. Through life-changing encounters, he gained profound insights.
As he writes: “More than my experiences, this book sheds light on Katrina’s aftermath, the impact on volunteers, and the lessons I learned daily.”

33 Day Consecration to St. Joseph
Throughout the ages, the Saints have testified to the fundamental truth of the resurrection of Jesus Christ and the unity of those baptized in him–we do not advance in the life of the Spirit and in him alone, but in union with all believers. Among the first to recognize and closest to the Son of God, was St. Joseph, Spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary and Head of the Holy Family. In this 33 Day Consecration, modeled on the names of St. Joseph from the centuries old Litany, through prayer, fasting and charity, we promise devotion to this beloved Saint and invite his aid that we may draw higher and closer to our Lord, Jesus Christ. Each days offers a short meditation in coming to know Joseph and the work that he continues to accomplish for the Church. The daily prayers are culled from the long tradition of devotion to St. Joseph and written by many of the Saints we know, and some we do not.By Consecrating ourselves to St. Joseph, we ask the man chosen to be the Foster Father of the Son of God to become our Spiritual Father, as Mary is our Mother and Mother of the Church.

The Carmelite Directory of the Spiritual Life
A masterwork of Carmelite spirituality, The Spiritual Directory compiles the Order’s rich traditions, practices, and wisdom. Drawing from Carmelite saints like Teresa of Jesus and John of the Cross, it was designed to train novices but serves as a profound guide to the Carmelite way of life. For anyone seeking to understand Carmelite spirituality, this is the essential starting point.
Life in Carmel
In October, 1932, the novice-masters of the Carmelite Order held a convention in Rome for the purpose of establishing uniformity in the training of novices.” ‘Life in Carmel’ (Vita Carmelitana) is the product of this gathering and remains one of the most profound presentations of modern Carmelite spirituality. In many ways, it can be seen as a precursor, and the foundation for the later production of the Spiritual Directory.
