The world is indebted to a woman (1914)

September 1914. The most decisive influence for Christianity, in all ages, was that of women, an "undeniable" and "fruitful" fact, according to Poveda. It is not surprising that in this same year, 1914, in his opening talk at a seminar in Jaen Poveda would speak at some risk, given the state of the feminist question in certain ecclesiastical circles about whether there was need to study the topic of women. Taking this approach, he had to face the mistrust of conservative opinion on one side and of the so called "progressives" on the other, at a time when suffragist feminism was emerging.

Spirit and Knowledge: The essence of our Association (1931)

March 13, 1931. Notes. The emphatic manner in which Poveda here re-visits the relationship between spirit and knowledge in his Work is significant. At this time (1931) the possibility of religion and learning being compatible was questioned more than ever, especially in the field of education. The solid intellectual training of the educators in Poveda's Association would contribute to the credibility of a Christian teaching profession. The specific mark of his Association, what governed its foundation, was the mission to live and witness to the harmony between faith and knowledge which is and was so often vigorously disputed, particularly so at the time this text was written.

Like the early Christians (1927)

June 5,1927. Letter to the students of a center in Barcelona.
During the late 1920s and particularly in the 1930s, in the atmosphere of accelerated secularization in which he lived, Poveda referred with renewed emphasis to the men and women of the early Church, who were capable of keeping their faith and confessing it in the midst of a pagan society,

True Humanism: belonging to God (1915)

April 9, 1915; first published in October 1916. Personal letter to one of his first collaborators. Belonging to God was inspired by an article by the Augustinian priest Restituto del Valle: "Apuntes acerca del caracter de Santa Teresa" (Notes concerning the character of Saint Teresa), published to mark the centenary of the beatification of St Teresa. From this time onwards, Poveda proposed to his collaborators the option of a life fully given to God, a life also fully human and perfected by the divine.
