The well-known and very popular Catholic couple; Scott and Kimberly Hahn; have been constantly travelling and speaking all over North America for the last few years about their conversion to the Catholic Church. Now these two outstanding Catholic apologists tell in their own words about the incredible spiritual journey that led them to embrace Catholicism. Scott Hahn was a Presbyterian minister; the top student in his seminary class; a brilliant Scripture scholar; and militantly anti-Catholic ... until he reluctantly began to discover that his "enemy" had all the right answers. Kimberly; also a top-notch theology student in the seminary; is the daughter of a well-known Protestant minister; and went through a tremendous "dark night of the soul" after Scott converted to Catholicism. Their conversion story and love for the Church has captured the hearts and minds of thousands of lukewarm Catholics and brought them back into an active participation in the Church. They have also influenced countless conversions to Catholicism among their friends and others who have heard their powerful testimony. Written with simplicity; charity; grace and wit; the Hahns' deep love and knowledge of Christ and of Scripture is evident and contagious throughout their story. Their love of truth and of neighbor is equally evident; and their theological focus on the great importance of the family; both biological and spiritual; will be a source of inspiration for all readers.

It is both happy and sad; and even a little shocking. "recommended" it. I would have not seeked it out on my own. Glad they prompted me to buy.I gave it to my brother in law when I finished and it has now made it's way around the family. Please take time to read this. It is something I think all generations should read and discuss; no matter what your race.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. A new perspectiveBy Michael BlizzardVery interesting book; I learned a lot about the perspective of the former slaves from reading these books fro the different states; highly recommend it to anyone studying this period of American history. This is a book that may cause you to think; use caution; not for the politically correct.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. My viewsBy CustomerInteresting book; but I'm sure the respondents didn't offer true opinion given they were living under "Jim Crow Laws" which is one step removed from slavery and many of the questioners were white.
