Author Description

A wonderful question and answer source for all current and potential Catholics! The Question Corner is written from a lay member's perspective - truly a "book from the pews," instead of being dry and scholarly. Basic Christianity and Catholicism is pretty darned complicated, and 2,000 years of tradition brings a lot of baggage with it. Existing and future Catholics sometimes get left behind by the complexity, and this book addresses exactly that.Basic answers to basic questions make it easy to grasp everyday issues. It's comfortable to be an informed Catholic, or simply to understand Catholicism in general - from inside or outside, if the answers are right there. This is truly a basic instruction book from an "experienced," trained and experienced member of the congregation. Get a grasp on what's holy, and what's not! Understand what's important in your religious belief - your faith life - and what's not! Be able to answer those tricky questions about your beliefs, and to put those beliefs into practice into your life, and your family's life. The Question Corner, by Jerry Stephens, is a truly great resource! There are two more books by the same author which expand into areas of greater faith life, and an understanding of how Christian beliefs are all inclusive in Catholicism, and everybody who honors God is also loved by him. Don't let small differences of belief cause discord - we all deserve respect from each other, with compassion and mercy from the same God.A third book completes the series, Embrace the Journey - How to Develop a Living Faith. Energize your religion! Find ways and reasons to live a revitalized life in Christ, regardless of your current or chosen religious conviction. All faiths embrace the Creator, so let's search for common ground and live as He wants us to! Buy all three books, or one at a time. You won't be disappointed!
