"A warm, down-to-earth challenge to the poisonous skepticism and disenchantment that smother our God-given soul-hungers like an acid fog. For God's sake (truly), let's feel the exuberance of living on fire before we claim to be 'all burnt out.' "--William J. O'Malley, S.J., author, Connecting with God "A refreshingly positive perspective on what it means to be Roman Catholic. Relying on his personal experience and diverse sources from Protestant theologians to papal documents, from popular culture to government official papers, from theological works to biblical scholarship, Fr Rick takes us on an enjoyable journey through his ten basics and does it all with a sense of joy and hopefulness, laying before us the radical call to a prophetic living of our faith."--John Sivalon, M.M., author, God's Mission in Post-modern Culture
