Description:
The Vatican released Magnifica Humanitas, Latin for "Magnificent Humanity", on 25 May 2026, making it the first papal encyclical devoted primarily to artificial intelligence. Pope Leo XIV, signed the 42,300-word document at St Peter's Basilica on 15 May 2026, exactly 135 years after his namesake Pope Leo XIII published Rerum Novarum, the foundational 1891 encyclical on labour rights during the Industrial Revolution.
On 25 May at the Vatican, theologian Anna Rowlands presented key themes from Pope Leo XIV?s encyclical Magnifica humanitas, focused on protecting human dignity in the age of artificial intelligence. Rowlands described the document as an urgent moral intervention, arguing that society can no longer delay confronting the social, political, and economic consequences of AI. She stressed that decisions about technology must not be left solely to corporations or profit-driven systems, but should include the voices of workers, migrants, families, and communities most affected by digital change.
Rowlands warned against "posthuman" visions that treat people as replaceable parts within algorithmic systems, emphasizing instead the value of human limitation, solidarity, and participation. She said the encyclical challenges the world to recover a shared moral imagination rooted in justice, love, and the common good. Ultimately, she presented Magnifica humanitas as both a critique of technological domination and an invitation to build a more humane and compassionate society together.

Description:
Broken, but ... offers hope for people recovering from spiritual trauma, including clergy sexual abuse of children, domestic violence, conversion "therapy," financial exploitation, systemic abuse, and intergenerational harm. Recovery is presented as a two-stage journey: first, restoring emotional functioning after trauma; then discovering opportunities for psychological and spiritual growth beyond what once seemed possible.
Dr Bruce A. Stevens draws on research into post-traumatic growth, combines evidence-based clinical psychology with spiritual insight and biblical principles. Practical exercises, including mindfulness, visualisation, and re-scripting techniques, help readers reflect, heal, and develop new skills. Survivor voices are woven throughout the book in compelling case studies.
Dr Bruce A. Stevens (PhD, Boston University) is an associate minister at Wesley Uniting Church, Canberra, a retired clinical and forensic psychologist, former Wicking Professor of Ageing and Practical Theology, and the author of numerous books on psychology, self-help, and theology.

Description:
In his exploration of the central themes of Scripture, Richard Rohr transforms the written word, discovering in these ancient texts a new and vital meaning, relevant and essential to all believers. He uncovers what the Bible says about morality, power, wisdom and the generosity of God in a manner that inspires in us a life-changing response.
Rohr's Christian vision of abundance, grace and joy - counteracting the scarcity, judgement and fear we know in our world - has the power to revolutionize how we relate to ourselves and all around us.
'Things Hidden is an invitation of gospel proportion to move on into the life God intends, a life of joy and obedience.' Walter Brueggemann,
Stan Grant is talking to his country in a new way. In his most poetic and inspiring work yet, he offers a means of moving beyond the binaries and embracing a path to peace and forgiveness, rooted in the Wiradjuri spiritual practice of Yindyamarra - deep silence and respect.
Murriyang, in part Stan Grant's response to the Voice referendum, eschews politics for love. In this gorgeous, grace-filled book, he zooms out to reflect on the biggest questions, ranging across the history, literature, theology, music and art that has shaped him. Setting aside anger for kindness, he reaches past the secular to the sacred and transcendent.
Informed by spiritual thinkers from around the world, Murriyang is a Wiradjuri prayer in one long uninterrupted breath, challenging Western notions of linear time in favour of a time beyond time - the Dreaming.
Murriyang is also very personal, each meditation interleaved with a memory of Grant's father, a Wiradjuri cultural leader. It asks how any of us can say goodbye to those we love.
This is a book for our current moment, and one for the ages.
Stan Grant reflects on how we struggle to speak to each other and the importance of listening, silence and philosophy.
"I am out of words at home. I have grown bored with my language, bored with my voice, bored with my writing. My words labour under the weight of Australia's history. The land itself, as much as I love it, bears down hard. Now in another place, I am finding lighter words. At times, I may not need to speak at all. I smile; I nod. I seek permission to speak. Please, do you mind? Will you allow me?"
In an important book for our times, Stan Grant, one of Australia's most prominent writers on identity, nationhood and belonging, reflects on how we struggle to speak to one another today, and the importance of listening, silence and philosophy, from Plato to Simone Weil to Radiohead.

Description:
In today's science-driven, rational world, belief is dismissed as an artefact of a bygone era, something absurd at best, harmful at worst. The prevailing narratives paint belief as primitive, weird, even dangerous. But as life grows ever more confusing and our societies more atomised, contemplating something bigger than ourselves has never been more vital.
Alister McGrath offers a fresh perspective on belief, presenting it not as a weakness of rational thought but as an essential tool for navigating uncertainty. He reveals, in a thought-provoking way, how belief provides meaning in the face of existential despair, how it fosters community and offers solace.
As society moves beyond the dismissive rhetoric surrounding people of faith, here is a powerful manifesto for the re-enchantment of the Western mind.
