There are some great Christian bloggers and authors out there who inspire me to continue the journey toward unsullied holiness. Check back, I’ll update this page regularly.

Books
Transformation in Christ, by Dietrich von Hildebrand
A modern classic, this is a deep dive into the Christian attitude and the true path to holiness. Over 500 pages and quite philosophical in tone, this isn’t a book that you read in a weekend. It’s one you digest over time. If you’re looking for a spot on exposition of the Beatitudes and what they mean to a modern era Christian, I highly recommend this book.
Anything by Josef Pieper
Pieper was a German philosopher with a bent toward St. Thomas Aquinas. Many of his works are modern translations of Thomistic concepts of virtue. I especially love:
- The Four Cardinal Virtues: Prudence, Justice, Fortitude, Temperance. Great introduction to ancient concepts of virtue that are vital to the modern unsullied life.
- On Hope. Possibly the best philosophy book I’ve ever read. (It’s also included in the anthology: Faith Hope Love)
- Happiness and Contemplation. Fascinating read.
The Spiritual Combat, by Lorenzo Scupoli
This books was written in 1589, so you have to keep that in mind, especially when he comments about women! But I am in love with this book and its simplicity. And it’s only $0.99 on Amazon!!
