What Verbum resources are available for and about trad Catholics?
That really depends on what you mean by traditional Catholic - tradition in terms of continuity with the church and an affinity for Medieval theology or the new American self-designated traditionalist? Note both may have an affinity for the Latin Mass. I can give you many recommendations if you mean the first group; I can give you a few for the latter but Logos has few enough contemporary authors writing in English that the second is not well represented - not even highly requested.
Both, but my question is definitely focused on the second group, "the new American self-designated traditionalists". In my library, I already had the Douay-Rheims and the Haydock notes. There is nothing comparable to a 1962 Angelus Press Missal, is there? I bought the new large print edition, recently, and I really do like it.
Okay, so I am not missing a library of resources, just because I don't know where to locate them. And you say that there hasn't been much of a request.
I am trying to review my Latin and learn more Latin.
I am trying to figure out how this group fits into the world of Logos/Verbum, and I really want to learn more about them in general. Right now, my Angelus Press Missal is a better fit than my Anglican resources, and I am enjoying reading through the Douay Rheims Bible. I want to know the good and the bad about this group, from outsiders and insiders, and how and when they differ from the continuity of the Church.
I have been fascinated with the one-year liturgical calendar for years, and I have been learning more about the medieval period in my quest to celebrate the year more deeply and traditionally.
The Trad catholic resources have a different and deeper focus on the dead than the Anglican, don't they? I moved back home when my mom got sick. I have been helping my step-dad clean up the graves and track down people's birthdays and death anniversaries. Many of my dad's people are Catholic, and some died before the Novus Ordo was implemented. My mom's family was Anglican and I feel confident that I have been able to help her sufficently with her graves, but I am still figuring out what to do for my dad's people. The Angelus Press Missal is more helpful that a BCP and more straighforward than the Anglican Missals and brevaries, and closer to what they would have used when still alive, I think.
I know my question is wide and vague. Sorry. I don't think I know enough to even ask the proper questions yet. But yes, my question includes and focuses on the American "Trads". And also how they fit into the continuity.
@Kathleen Marie Maybe you look at the works of Scott Hahn here in Logos/Verbum?
Thanks @NichtnurBibelleser !
Scott Hahn wrote a lot of books!

I have quite a few already. Awhile back, I wrote a school paper on the tribe of Judah, and it was a better deal to buy a collection of books rather than just the books that I needed.
I am not sure exactly where Scott Hahn stands, as it seems that many groups want to interview him and call him their own. If anyone has any information or suggestions about Scott Hahn and his work, I am interested to listen.
A member of our parish, Mark Shea, used to work with Scott Hahn … They are both members of what I refer to as "professional converts." In terms of how they view the world they have part of one foot still in the Protestant camp and more than one foot in the Catholic camp … however, they have put considerable effort into learning Catholic theology and practices. As such, they are excellent resources to use to introduce Protestants to Catholic theology and to teach Catholics who were poorly catechized. Scott Hahn's The Lamb's Supper is an excellent introduction to the Eucharist. Scott was a minister before he became Catholic. Mark Shea, on the other hand, ran an Evangelical bookstore in the University district. Making Senses Out of Scripture is my favorite of his books. Mark's easy reading, no jargon style make it easy to miss how deep and accurate his theology is.
The easiest way to visualize the difference in the Catholic-Orthodox view of the dead, besides the Mexican Day of the Dead, is to step into a traditional Orthodox church where the walls and ceilings are covered with icons … humans saints on the bottom to the angels and Biblical saints on top (some even have a heretical image of God). When you step into the church you are immediately drawn into the church militant, church suffering, and church triumphant … we're all one big connected community.
Thank you @MJ. Smith !!
I got an email that screams "delete me", but before I do, I thought I would ask if anybody knows whether this is legitimate, or junk/spam/phishing? The email is from "Logos via SafeOpt," and claims that "SafeOpt does not sell any advertised products or services, so any questions about the content herein should be directed…
OK, I have thought for awhile that the new Discover lens and the 'Store' icon were not working properly in Verbum/Mac - new features in 45.0. I can't get either to show up! But now I have narrowed this down to show that something is broken only on the Verbum/Mac app (don't know about Verbum/Windows) and app.verbum.com So…
Dear Folk, When I click Favorites in the Dynamic Toolbar, when my bible is open, I get an incomplete listing of my Favorites menu. Why is that? Am I missing something?
How do I get rid of books in I cannot read or simply dont want? There are many aramaic books that I cannot read and dont want them included when Im searching or trying to look at other books.
I really like the new indicators that Bible Study Builder now adds, and I see the potential of the Builder. But my difficulty in the Builder is the tool that the questions uses to add an answer. for me it lacks the notes tool. As for me the questions leads to a study and a gathering of information. Now the current way is…
