The Best Conversion Book I Ever Read

[djeter]

No, not the best intellectual defense or advocacy for Christian faith – but something that truly **moved **you, that really made you want to be Catholic or helped you to become a better Catholic.

I would nominate this little book, “The Strangest Way” by Fr. Robert Barron. I have a reading selection that features some of the Catholic practices that make up being Catholic. This was the first time (for me anyways) that I confronted the notion that BEING CATHOLIC meant DOING CATHOLIC.

I’ve been experiencing a dry period in my faith and have spent the last week kind of going over some of the books that helped me pray the Rosary and get involved in DOING CATHOLIC. Hit the back button on my site to see more.

Anyways, The Strangest Way stuff is here. Also a video of Fr. Barron speaking about the book. All here:

Thank you so very much - I am very interested in reading this book now; and my 18-yr old cousin, raised Protestant, has expressed some desire to learn about Catholicism. This book will fit the bill for both of us, so thank you!
