“Other scepter's selection of titles emphasizes the fundamental aspects of religious life: prayer, sincerity, self-denial, and a spirit of service to others. Since its publishing focus is related to a message that remains outside the mainstream, it must make a greater effort to promote these materials with better marketing in order to reach individuals already receptive to this message as well as those who might be led to a greater awareness of its importance. During 2020 scepter released several new books that help people in their day-to-day struggles to improve both their own lives and the lives of others. Indispensable dad: fathers use this book as a measure and reminder of your indispensable role as virtuous leaders of your family with reliance on the grace and guidance of the heavenly father, the sacraments, a life of prayer, the blessing of friendship and community, and common sense, gabriel's insight is a source of invigorating support for all fathers. Love, marriage, money: one of the top reasons for divorce and poverty is due to financial issues within the family. It is a topic that should not tackle alone. The complexities of financial responsiblity - from life insurance to health insurance, debts to savings, assets to charitable donations, and everything in between - can be daunting. This book offers a well- balanced outline for financial stability and responsibility that will benefit all married couples. The book supports the notion that strong marriages are the basis of every healthy society. Marriage insurance: this is another book that supports the stability of married life. This book helps couples contemplating marriage as well as those already married. It pulls from fr. Frank hoffman's many years of working with couples helping them to develop a strong overall foundation for a lifetime together. His eminence francis cardinal george of chicago hailed this book on communication, handling emotions, physical intimacy, and asking for god's help as a commonsense approach to having the best marriage possible. Holiness through work: work is a fundamental element of human life that claims much of our time, supports family life and contributes to a functioning society. Consider jesus' 30 years as a carpenter under the tutelage of st. Joseph our natural tendency can be to often curse or shirk its presence in life, instead of recognizing its true value as a source of personal development, and improvement of society. The core part of the book is a dialogue between numerous scholars and msgr. Fernando ocriz about the message of st. Josemara escriv, one of the great teachers of modern spirtuality, who has taught us to sanctify work, to sanctify oneself at work, and to sanctify others through work. We hope that readers will use these words to reflect on the meaning of work in their own lives and to learn how to change their perception of work as a burden into work as a source of sanctification and service to others. Home again: this book helps to refresh, renew, and rediscover what it means to be human, to be a child of god. In fr. John henry leads the reader "home" through a prayerful revitalization of faith in god's plan for them - their story - by recalling its incredible beauty and depth. He reminds them that their indentity as a christian is strengthened through the sacraments - gifts of the church that accompany and enrich you through life. In dialogue with the lord: st. Josemara escriv talked to group of people from many varied backgrounds, to tranmit to them the spirit of god. In his preaching, there was a specific way which was very characteristic of him: family-like conversation in which all manner of topics come up: spiritual matters, points of history, comments on recent events etc. This book expresses the content and the purpose helping readers to do personal prayer, to talk with jesus face to face. The book enkindles hearts, filling them with strength and with deep joy in the endeavor to give glory to god and enc”

Scepter books aid greatly in the reformation of their character, which is important to their eventual reintegration into society. Examples include matthew paradise at san quentin penitentiary in california. He requested "the history of modern philosophy- and "the holy rosary-; michael estep, in prison in jacksboro, texas, who requested a copy of "the way" by st josemaria; martin schafer, who is in prison in avenal, california, requesting "the navarre bible. Mathew and mark", "the way, furrow, forge- and "the handbook of prayer".
