He draws on his own prayer, study and preaching experiences throughout the world to ask What is good about being Catholic?

"An excellent, concise and thought-provoking work that looks at the basics of Roman Catholicism. Of particular interest is how it explores not just the faith, but also the character of the Roman Catholic Church."
