Description

Welcome to the adventure! When I was growing up, the idea that being Catholic was an "adventure" was the farthest thing from my mind. You just "were". And, pretty much, memorizing some definitions and what "rules" you had to keep in order to be "saved" completed the picture. Then why would I entitle these challenging reflections to aid our life's journey: FREE AND HOLY WHERE YOU ARE? Perhaps because many Catholics don't feel freed by the "rules", and don't feel they will ever be truly "holy". Only for priests, sisters, or monks could "where you are" possibly promote holiness! Yet the "Daily Life of a Catholic" is exactly where we always are with Jesus as our friend and confidant, and members of his Body, the Church. Be prepared to choose a hundred thoughts or phrases you'll want to remember for the rest of your life. "If you are one of those people who, like me, understand Roman Catholic tradition as a solid foundation meant to encourage, not discourage, intelligent critical moral thought, then this is the book for you. It will make you excited (again) to be a Roman Catholic believer." Msgr. Robert J. Thelen, Seminary Professor and Parish Priest "A MARVELOUS BOOK Having learned that a priest I greatly admire had written a book, I eagerly looked forward to obtaining and reading a copy. When Msgr. Dennis M. Regan's "Free and Holy Where You Are: The Daily Life of a Catholic" arrived in the mail, my first reaction was I wondered if the book had a good title. The format of the book is a collection of two- or three-page essays, a format that I usually don't find attractive, and so I was concerned that I might not like the book. My concerns disappeared quickly as I read the text. Msgr. Regan has written a marvelous book, and the title is perfect. The book was a challenging, instructive and often inspiring experience. In God's incredible and unconditional love for each of us, God invites us to become: Co-creators with God of a redeemed but unfinished world. That will bring enthusiasm and excitement for any Christian believer who accepts the invitation." Rev. Robert E. Lauder, "Arts amd Culture" published in The Brooklyn TABLET, Nov. 30, 2019 A TERRIFIC, WELCOMING VOLUME Regan seeks to highlight what he sees as the more inviting aspects of Catholicism, which some readers may not expect---most prominently its flexibility and humanity....Readers who are familiar with the history of Catholic writings will be struck again and again in Regan's compassionate, empathetic notes, which would have been unrecognizable in Catholic thinkers of an earlier age....Many modern believers, especially young ones, will find a version of Catholicism in these pages that they can embrace. -----Kirkus Reviews
