Badde Paul (346 results)

Hardback. Condition: Very Good. Best-selling journalist, historian and author Paul Badde embarks on an exciting quest to discover the truth behind the Holy Face of Manoppello, a relic recently rediscovered and rumored to be the veil of Veronica. Vatican correspondent for German newspaper Die Welt, journalist Paul Badde was intrigued when he heard of a mysterious image in a remote Italian village--an image of a man's face on byssus cloth. Byssus, or sea silk, is a rare and delicate fabric woven from a silky filament produced by mollusks. It is claimed that the fabric is so thin and delicate that it is impossible to paint on--yet the image in Manoppello is clearly visible and, moreover, when laid over the image of the face on the Shroud of Turin forms a perfect match. Experts determined that the cloth of Manoppello is not Veronica's veil, but rather the face cloth layed over the face of Jesus in the tomb. Unlike the Shroud of Turin, which is a negative of the image, the image on the face cloth is a positive of the face of Christ. Paul Badde takes the reader along on a thrilling journey of discovery as he travels to research this remarkable relic, tracing the turbulent history of the Holy Face from ancient times up to the historic 2006 visit to Manoppello by Pope Benedict XVI. Illustrated with 16 pages of color photos. …

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Benedict Up Close brings you a unique glimpse into the behind-the-scenes drama of Pope Benedict's pontificate: witness firsthand his many triumphs, public and private, as well as the hostility he experienced. Drawing from many conversations with Benedict as well as from his extensive interviews with members of the Pope's inner circle, Rome-based journalist Paul Badde provides exciting accounts of Pope Benedict's near-superhuman struggles on the frontlines of the Church's perennial war against godlessness and despair. You'll be there as Benedict surfers eight years of unremitting trials, from the Regensburg Islamic controversy to the Vatileaks scandal. These often-surprising pages will give you a deeper appreciation of Pope Benedict's goodness and help you understand why he alone could have successfully steered the Barque of Peter through the storms that assailed the Church during his pontificate. From this eloquent close-up of Pope Benedict, you'll learn: How this son of a policeman became the "Thomas Aquinas of our time", How his experiences in Nazi Germany impacted his papacy and the Church, Why he compared election to the Papacy to being guillotined, Why this shy and exceedingly kind man met with more ill will than any other Pope in decades, How his Regensburg call for religious freedom became one of the most explosive documents of the century, How, even as Pope, Benedict remained an outsider, Why he took every free moment to complete his book on Jesus, Why his every word was disputed in the popular press and why, nonetheless, he refused to let himself he driven by public opinion, Why, while embracing Vatican II, he reintroduced the Tridentine Mass, Why, despite death threats from Al Qaeda, he risked his life to travel to Turkey, What led his trusted valet to steal the Pope's letters and betray his secrets, The real reason why he resigned Book jacket.…
