| Mass of the Early Christians - Author, Mike Aquilina,
reveals the Church's most ancient Eucharistic beliefs and practices. Using the words of the
early Christians themselves -- from many documents and inscriptions -- he traces the Mass's
history from Jesus' lifetime through the fourth century. The Mass stood at the center of the
Church's life, evident in the Scriptures as well as the earliest Christian sermons, letters,
artwork, tombstones, and architecture. Even the pagas bore witness to the Mass in the records
of their persecutions., pp 217, soft, (Mike Aquilina)

| One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic (The Early Church
Was The Catholic Church) - Very often in the history
of Christianity, "reformers", by whatever name, have aspired to
return to "the early Church". The Church of their own day, for
whatever reason, fails to live up to what they think Christianity should
be: in their view there has been a falling away from the beautiful ideals
of the early Church. Kenneth Whitehead shows in this book how the
early Church has, in fact, not disappeared, but rather has survived and
persisted, and is with us still. "Reformers" are not so much the
ones needed by this Church as are those who aspire to be saints—to
follow Christ seriously and always to fulfill God's holy will by employing
the means of sanctification which Christ continues to provide in the
Church. Whitehead shows how the visible body which today bears the name
"the Catholic Church" is the same Church which Christ
established to carry on and perpetuate in the world his Words and his
Works—and his own divine Life—and to bring salvation and
sanctification to all mankind. Despite superficial differences in certain
appearances, the worldwide Catholic Church today remains the same Church
that was originally founded by Jesus Christ on Peter and the other
apostles back in the first century in the ancient Near East. The early
Church, in other words, was always!—nothing else but—the Catholic
Church., pp 350, soft, (Kenneth D. Whitehead)
