On-Line Catholic Resources 

This page is always under construction. The following are  some of our favorite Catholic Web sites. Do to the growing number of sites that I have found I am now grouping them into two categories. Apologetics Sites is a list of general web sites on the Catholic faith. Marian web sites are those relating to Marian Devotion and Apparitions. To visit them just click on the link. If you want to return to our site be sure to use the BACK or RETURN feature of your browser. If you have any problems with the links to the other sites be sure to e-mail me so I can fix it. Visit this page often because we will update it as we find more interesting sites.

With House of Gold, America's favorite Catholic novelist returns to the riveting apocalyptic storytelling which captured the hearts of countless readers in his explosive classic, Pierced By A Sword, while retaining the intimate, realistic characters who charmed, surprised, and ultimately swept readers away in his second novel, Conceived Without Sin.

Join Bud Macfarlane Jr. as he takes you on a gripping spiritual odyssey that will reverberate through your soul long after you turn the final page.

Characters Who Jump Off the Page

Buzz Woodward Alcoholism. Divorce. Attempted suicide. Buzz had been through it all and has lived to tell. Now he is married with children, pushing forty, out of shape, living hand-to-mouth, and finds himself beginning an impossible journey against impossible odds.

Sam and Ellie Fisk Ten years earlier, when Buzz's best friends fell in love, they also discovered a greater love -- their love for the Catholic Church. To outsiders, Sam and Ellie have it all: perfect marriage, a talented son, friends, faith, wealth, status, success. But now, an unrelenting force of darkness threatens to tear them apart forever.

Mark Johnson He's a big, strong, brave FBI agent, the ultimate tough guy cruising through middle age while enjoying his adoring family. Mark and his wife Maggie are already looking forward to a satisfying retirement when he detects a dangerous technological storm on the horizon. But that is okay . . . Mark is ready for anything. Or is he?

Excerpt from the Foreword

You won't read a more timeless novel than House of Gold -- even if you are reading it one hundred years after it was first published. It offers suffering. I know that sounds strange, but you will love the suffering inside its pages. It's honest, authentic, gut-wrenching. It's real suffering. You will understand when you read it. . . .

During its harshest and most brutal scenes, my heart was filled with tenderness and hope. I felt that I was right there with Buzz, Ellie, Mel, and the Man.

The Man? I can't wait until you meet the Man. Like everything in this book, he's real, hard to describe, and the definition of cool. He's still with me. Right now. And I like that.

I believe this is Bud Macfarlane's best work. It is one of a kind and will never be duplicated, not even by Bud himself.

It offers the Cross. Can you take it?
