The End or the Beginning? Danger and Deliverance at the Dawn of the Third Millennium
Father Kenneth Baker, SJ, Father James Buckley, FSSP, Chris Ferrara, Esquire, and Dr. Ronald G. Connolly are featured speakers on this 2011 Monterey Conference album.

Four excellent, timely talks. Pope Benedict recently likened the situation of the Western world to the Roman Empire in the midst of its fall, warning that "moral consensus is collapsing, consensus without which juridical and political structures cannot function. Consequently, the forces mobilized for the defense of such structures seem doomed to failure... The very future of the world is at stake." Is it all over? Or does Providence have other plans, giving us signs of hope in the midst of so many reasons for despair? Our renowned speakers explored this theme under various aspects, and will reveal some surprising conclusions.
