    • You are tired of shallow answers to life’s questions and are looking for real truth
    • You are questioning, ‘If God is so good, why is life so hard?’
    • You wonder why people lose their faith, or you have lost yours
    • You are looking for peace of mind, or hope in a difficult situation

    In this book you will find candid quips such as, ‘If our faith were simply an emotional state, the Catholic Church would have lasted twenty minutes, not twenty centuries.’ Read Arise and Walk and see what it does for your faith.
