Do you think A Purpose Driven Life and other books written by and for Protestants have any use for Catholics?
I haven’t read it yet, but am strongly considering it. However, I was in Houston on business this past weekend, and attended St. Cyril Church. They were using the book for a series of studies (or something similar), and the priest was using it for his homily.Do you think A Purpose Driven Life and other books written by and for Protestants have any use for Catholics?
I have also read this book and highly recommend it. I don’t believe it’s a strictly protestant book, but a book for any Christian. I give it aDo you think A Purpose Driven Life and other books written by and for Protestants have any use for Catholics?
I have only skimmed the book, but I am bias as my sister was reading the book as she left the Church (I know this isn’t the cause - but it sure didn’t help any), and it was my ex-girlfriend’s favorite book (strongly anti-catholic.) And what I did read from the book I found to be lacking in many very important things that are necessary for the Catholic Christian…so I stick to my above post:A friend of mine at work credits the book with completely changing his life. He happens to be an ex-Catholic, now Protestant. People seem to love the book, and many people feel like it’s changed their lives. Why not check it out?
I would bet you that most people, Catholics included, don’t really make God’s will in their lives a #1 priority. If someone has created a really good vehicle that successfully helps people move in the right direction towards that ideal, then who cares if the author is a Protestant, Muslim, Jew, or Catholic!?
