Catholic Passion Rediscovering the Power and Beauty of the Faith

David Scott, biographer of Mother Teresa, presents the Catholic faith as a spiritually fulfilling, intellectually coherent answer to the most important human questions: Why are we here? What can we know of God? How should we live? The Catholic Passion is not an argument for the Catholic faith but a journey to the heart of it, a richly rewarding reflection on prayer, the Bible, Sacraments, the Church, and God-made-human in Jesus Christ. Scott illuminates the Catholic mysteries with the insights of great Catholic figures of modern times: American writer Andre Dubus, French composer Olivier Messiaen, Chinese human rights activist Henry Wu, French martyr Charles de Foucauld, American reformer Dorothy Day, and others. His keenly perceptive words are directed to comtemporay people.Scott, David is the author of 'Catholic Passion Rediscovering the Power and Beauty of the Faith', published 2006 under ISBN 9780829424775 and ISBN 0829424776.
