In this articulate, honest story of her return to the faith of her forebears, Lonni Collins Pratt examines Catholic spirituality and its intrinsic value and gifts. Her personal. nontheological approach reaffirms what it is like to be Catholic and how Catholicism shape's ones life. Her candid insights are a welcome tonic and give hope to those shaken by the recent crisis in the Church. Distinguishing between being born Catholic and taking personal responsibility for living as a Catholic, the author presents a thoughtful consideration of the "big picture," which, for Lonni Collins Pratt, is that the Church "is something bigger than any of us and that would be a mighty big thing." --- from book's back cover
