Book for my wife

[codefro]

My wife and I were confirmed in the Catholic Church this last Easter. We were former evangelicals at one point, and my wife still maintains an evangelical type of spirituality. Is there a book that one may recommend for a lady in that mindset that points to Catholic truths?

I suggest Rome Sweet Home first too! Also Surprised by Truth, a compilation of short “journeys to Catholicism”. Great! And there are two sequels! Also watch “Journey Home” on EWTN!

What exactly is an “evangelical type of spirituality?”

I find this a little offensive and I would like some clarification. I hope I have no reason to be offended.

If you are saying that she still maintains belief in evangelical doctrines that are opposed to Catholic teachings (e.g., the Bible is the only Authority for Christians), then yes, there is definitely cause for concern. But if she tends to say, “Praise the Lord!” instead of using a Latin phrase, then that’s not something that needs to be “corrected.”
