Description
This book is ideal for aviation enthusiasts, filled with technical details of military aircraft maintenance, vivid descriptions of civil flight instruction, along with airline pilot training and operations from behind the flight deck door. It is also my very personal story of how I went from a teenager working in a furniture factory to the left seat of a Boeing airliner after a long and tumultuous journey.

Trouble in the Diocese is a petulant, funny book of poetry. Its contrary protagonist/antagonist, the Apprentice, embraces life in both the large and the absurdly small. At the same time, he emphatically rejects the easy rigidity of doily-headed orthodox Catholics as well as the impulse in the Catholic literary Pixar world that seeks to serve two masters.
Jesus and his Church are lifted up here, but so is the cross. Discipleship necessarily involves...

Though we are all sorry sinners, not worthy to sing God's praises, we must. The trick is to not let concerns for "Christian stealth" transform us into poets who end up serving a second master. "Platform" has its draw, but we can't let a wide concern for Catholic culture become no culture at all. We can't be so concerned with success that our poems lose their distinguishing content.
Jesus is Lord of all the earth.

The work of a wonderful secular poet, Billy Collins, provides a great model for Christian writers. His Coleridge "conversation poems" allow for real play and comedy, all in the service of profundity. These are veins that have not been suitably mined by poets who have access to the larger humanity that only Jesus can provide. But there's more than comedy in this collection. The Sorrows of Mary offer a sober truth, as do the four Gospel sonnets; both...

Lying is a normal part of human communication and is sometimes necessary to protect someone's feelings. At the same time, there are also malicious lies meant to deceive, cheat, and defraud. Especially in today's world, in which technology, media, and the government have blurred the lines between fact and fiction, you can't always rely on what comes out of someone's mouth or what you see on the internet or television. It doesn't take mind-reading superpowers...

It's a mistake to insist on an upper middle-class gospel. Orthodox Catholic universities can fall into this trap, as any privileged person can. What matters is spiritual poverty. This is what we are called to, to take the lowest part-always. After all, the only sins we can really know are our own. These poems are an attempt to foreground that problem, that solution. May they give Jesus glory, whatever their success.

You can't always rely on what comes out of someone's mouth. It doesn't take mind reading superpowers to be able to tell when someone is lying-but it does take special skills and a little practice.

Description
Jesus is God, and we as necessarily devotional Christian poets must not shy away from that fact. These poems try to celebrate that reality, who He is, without sacrificing literary quality. They are distinctly American (baseball, jazz, and free verse) in form, Beat in the line of Mary Fabilli, Thomas Merton, and Daniel "stick it to the man" Berrigan. And they try to accomplish this without sacrificing humor and romp. May these, and all Christian poems,...

In the last twenty years, Orthodox Catholics have come to expect their art to be necessarily about beauty. They expect it always and everywhere to lift one up, to be tinged with, to linger in the dimly-lit rooms of old-moneyed Europe, to be passed around among the best families, among like-minded gnostics, generous Jansenists. But these expectations have nothing to do with reality. In fact, most of the real contributions during the postmodern period...

After Mary, St. Francis is clearly the most popular and influential of all the disciples of Jesus Christ. He embodies the spiritual poverty, humility, and childlikeness which are absolutely essential for anyone who wants to grow. And it is fitting, too, to examine his life in poetry, since Francis is considered by many to be the father of Italian poetry. In these St. Francis Poems, David Craig gives us what literature should: slices of Henry James's...

On November 20, 1983, a three-hour made-for-TV movie, “The Day After”, premiered on ABC. Set in the heartland of Lawrence, Kansas, the film depicted the events before, during, and after a Soviet nuclear attack with vivid scenes of the post-apocalyptic hellscape that would follow. The film was viewed by over 100 million Americans and remains the highest rated TV movie in history.
