“In every age one encounters a cloud of witnesses whose lives articulate its deepest longings. Note: This is a full-length book and is different from the study guide for the video-based study program of the same title. The saints of the Catholic Reformation show us just how powerful-and beautiful-is the human heart’s free response to God’s generous grace. True Reformers explores in detail the leaders who led the Church’s rebirth from the ashes of Renaissance decadence and the turbulence and confusion caused by the Protestant Reformation.
Who are the true benefactors of the human race? Explorers? Scientists? Revolutionaries? Rebels against established authority? . . . True Reformers: Saints of the Catholic Reformation
Isn’t religion only for “religious people”?.Can a Catholic be a “born-again Christian”?.How will the Bible help me to know myself?.Peter Kreeft, Ph.D., a Professor of Philosophy at Boston College, is the well-known author of over thirty-five books on a wide range of spiritual themes, including Prayer for Beginners, Back to Virtue, and Angels and Demons. But these are questions asked not just by the young-they are the same questions adults often ask, and God’s answers, as found in the Bible, respond to the deepest needs of people of all ages. Peter Kreeft uses Scripture to provide God’s profound answers to the most common and important questions young people ask about the deeper meaning of life, their own identities, overcoming failure and temptation, the mystery of God’s love, and much more.

Ideal for men’s and women’s groups, adult faith formation, and young adult ministry, this book gives Catholics greater confidence in God’s moral law, greater clarity in how to explain it effectively to our secular friends, and greater compassion for those with whom we disagree. Learn how Catholic morality is all about love, how making a judgment is not judging a person’s soul, and how, in the words of Pope Francis, “relativism wounds people” and is “the spiritual poverty of our times.” This book gives us an important key to responding to relativism effectively-a Catholic moral worldview. How do we talk about morality in a world that no longer believes in truth? When we’re bombarded with messages of “Be tolerant!” “Don’t judge!” and “Coexist!” many good people feel afraid to say anything is right or wrong anymore.
