"Today’s Church is more than ever a Church of martyrs and thus a witness to the living God... Unwillingness to notice them is a symptom of a slothful heart."
— Pope Benedict XVI, What is Christianity? The Last Writings
I enjoyed reading the Last Writings collection of Pope Benedict XVI, he provided some great insights. It just covered his writings primarily from his resignation to his departure from life, I hope to one day go back and read his other full works.

Pope Benedict XVI was a saintly man, I truly believe that he is presently in heaven praying for the Church.

The Ignatius Catholic Study Bible series has been immensely helpful to me over the years. Years ago, when I was departing an oppressive period of atheism, the Ignatius New Testament Study Bible helped me as I read the complete bible on my own for the first time. I still regularly refer to it when reading the New Testament or the select Old Testament books that have editions available. If you don't already have it, you should seriously consider picking up at least the New Testament study bible. I cannot wait until they have covered the entire canon.

THEREFORE GOD HAS HIGHLY EXALTED HIM AND BESTOWED ON HIM THE NAME THAT IS ABOVE EVERY NAME,

SO THAT AT THE NAME OF JESUS EVERY KNEE SHOULD BOW, IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH AND UNDER THE EARTH,

AND EVERY TONGUE CONFESS THAT JESUS CHRIST IS LORD, TO THE GLORY OF GOD THE FATHER.
