“Finally, a book that you can confidently give to your Catholic friends and family members who are confused or threatened when you use words like "born-again" or "personal relationship". Ever since the Protestant Reformation, there has been a fear that the motivation behind sharing the Gospel is to convince people to leave the Catholic Church (aka "sheep stealing"). This book puts those fears to rest as it clarifies what the Good News is and why we ALL need to hear it. As a cradle Catholic, I know that many of my Catholic brothers and sisters have been sacramentalized before they have been evangelized and are consequently struggling. I know because it wasn't until I was 39 years old that I finally understood and received this amazing gift of grace and it has made all the difference. I was like the religious leaders of Jesus' time - I didn't know I was "sick". This book will help you, and anyone you love who may not know they are "sick", find the way to true joy, true peace, and a genuinely transformed life. ”
