Courage And Conviction
Today, many Christians, concerned and challenged by contemporary trends in society and religion, are bewildered and perhaps tempted to leave the Church and manage on their own.
Courage and Conviction is addressed to thinking adult Christians who seek something between high theology and pious platitudes. Ranging from consideration of Christian identity, via the challenge of faith-filled living in a world of diversity, to suggestions for mature discipleship today, these reflections-building on Scripture studies, cultural anthropology, and life experience-are offered by way of support, encouragement, and perhaps further enlightenment.

Can you think of one special job he does?” There are also several Catholic terms which are explained on an appropriate level.Whether a child receives religious education through Catholic school or a supplemental catechism class, the book is helpful in explaining the seven sacraments and encouraging the child–and the parent–to make use of these special gifts from God.
