Great Catholic Book Club
There is one perspective that encompasses all that is true, good, and beautiful. It doesn't erase any point of view, it refines them all. That perspective is the Catholic intellectual tradition, and it changes everything, including how you read. The Great Catholic Book Club takes one book each month — science fiction, literary classics, fantasy, modern fiction — and explores it through the lens of Scripture, the Catechism, and the saints.

You'll never read the same way again. Every book is Catholic. Monthly episodes and free study guides at greatcatholicbookclub.com

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same.
