The Book of Feasts & Seasons is a beautifully mind-bending stroll with a grandmaster of science fiction through the annual Catholic calendar.

The book begins with New Year's Day and "The Meaning of Life as Told Me by an Inebriated Science Fiction Writer in New Jersey".

Once, in a theater long ago and far, far away, young audiences who watched the nostalgic space epic of yesteryear, known then only as Star Wars, were duly enthralled. So much goodwill, so much affection, and so much love has rarely been lavished on any franchise. So much money from so many eager fans was never so readily available.

Warships can be silent if they are slow; only their missiles need speed. And so it was silently, slowly, that the Procrustes approached the stranger's cold vessel.

First published in 1957, Broken Bread is a compilation of written as well as transcribed verbal messages by Follette. Follette distinguished himself from the average Pentecostal of the 20th Century by calling out those who sought the manifestations of the Holy Spirit for their own purposes.

Though he was at times labeled anti-Pentecostal, he was undeterred in his exhortations against only the inauthentic, flesh-driven expressions that others embraced.

The Lords of Creation rule the Nine Worlds through its control of the ultra-advanced technology that has permitted the colonization of the entire solar System. More gods than men, the Lords of Creation have cheated Death itself. But although they rule the solar system with their god-like scientific knowledge, there are even more powerful forces to be feared lurking out in the dark depths of space. And when an unthinkably terrible enemy that rules a vast network of dead stars and planets comes to the Nine Worlds, it falls to them to stop it, though entire worlds may perish.

Jesús nos envía al mundo de la misma manera que el Padre lo envió a él. Sin embargo, aun miles de años después, muchos cristianos todavía no se ponen de acuerdo que incluye esto. Algunos creen que el enfoque de la misión cristiana es evangelizar y «salvar almas». Otros enfatizan asuntos de justicia global o la labor de alivio y desarrollo. ¿Acaso solo una de estas dos opiniones está en lo correcto por si sola?
