About this title

Synopsis

A Life in the Spirit chronicles beloved author and speaker Ralph Martin's journey from the early days of the Catholic charismatic renewal to become one of the most courageous voices defending the truth of the Gospel during an age of dissension and disbelief.

In this memoir, Ralph Memoir shares how he was initially drawn to make a radical commitment to Jesus Christ and, as that commitment deepened, how he entered more fully into the spiritual tradition of the Church and advanced theological studies that grounded his work of fundamental Catholic renewal within the solid tradition of Catholic teaching.

Martin's writing, speaking, and evangelization efforts—particularly through the international apostolate he founded, Renewal Ministries, and his teaching at Sacred Heart Major Seminary in Detroit—are detailed in Life in the Spirit and offer to all readers a remarkable witness to the relevance and urgency of the Gospel.

A Life in the Spirit recounts not only Martin's struggle to remain faithful to his commitment to Christ through obstacles and opposition, but also includes beautiful reflections on family life and remarkable experiences with the likes of Pope St. John Paul II, Mother Angelica, and many others.

Movingly personal yet highly engaging, A Life in the Spirit presents a unique snapshot of some of the most critical moments in recent Church history—and a glimpse into the soul of one man whose life and mission have been surrendered to God through them all.
