Using the insights and experiences of saints and great spiritual writers throughout history, Kreeft shows what holiness is and how it can be achieved. He especially draws upon the spiritual classic Abandonment to Divine Providence by Jean-Pierre de Caussade, S.J. The core of Caussade's timeless gem is that God reveals himself to all of us through the daily events of our lives. The surest way toward spiritual growth, therefore, is by perceiving and accepting the merciful will of God in every situation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKreeft stresses the simplicity of his approach to holiness, which focuses mainly on the virtue of love.

St. Thomas Aquinas is universally recognized as one of the greatest philosophers who ever lived. His writings combine the two fundamental ideals of philosophical writing: clarity and profundity. He is a master of metaphysics and technical terminology, yet so full of both theoretical and practical wisdom. He is the master of common sense. The \u003ci\u003eSumma Theologica\u003c\/i\u003e is timeless, but particularly important today because of his synthesis of faith and reason, revelation and philosophy, and the Biblical and the classical Greco-Roman heritages.

He’s also one of the most loved, having influenced countless Catholics in the U.S. and beyond. But who, exactly, is the man behind the books? In this new autobiography, Kreeft finally tells readers his own story, including the encounters, people, and ideas that led him to the Catholic Church as a young man.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith his signature insight and sharp wit, Kreeft takes readers through his childhood in midcentury New Jersey, where his family attended a Dutch Reformed church and anti-Catholicism was a given, to his undergraduate years at Calvin College, where he studied philosophy and found himself on the road to Rome. From there, we follow him to Fordham and Yale, where he finally crossed the Tiber in 1960—with his future wife, Maria, as godmother. Finally, he reflects on his post conversion years, distilling the central insights from a long and fruitful life in the Catholic Church.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReplete with delightful anecdotes and bearing the stamp of Kreeft’s wry sense of humor, this autobiography is a human look at one of the great Catholic apologists of our time: a philosopher, a man of letters, and above all, of man of faith. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHardcover\u003cbr\u003e192 Pages\u003cbr\u003eIgnatius Press\u003cbr\u003eMarch 2025\u003cbr\u003eISBN: 9781621646969\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ignatius Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48501949137204,"sku":"17931","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/7845\/7908\/files\/17931_5a80cd1f-c48b-5612-8422-7f8e8bdfdfaf.jpg?v=1748646796"},{"product_id":"making-sense-out-of-suffering-19760","title":"Making Sense out of Suffering","description":"\u003ch3\u003eMaking Sense out of Suffering\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBy: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/inhisname.com\/collections\/peter-kreeft?_pos=1\u0026amp;_psq=peter+kreeft\u0026amp;_ss=e\u0026amp;_v=1.0\"\u003ePeter Kreeft\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePeter Kreeft presents a philosophical and spiritual exploration of the mystery of pain and suffering, offering insights for those seeking meaning in hardship through personal reflection and Christian theology.
