In Rediscovering Catholicism: Journeying Toward Our Spiritual North Star, Matthew Kelly gives a compelling picture of what a Christian should be. With a clear voice, he shows how each area of society should and would inculcate a biblical worldview if those who claim to be Catholic lived what they say they believe.
Divided into readable sections, Kelly explores the need for a Savior, the relevancy of Christ today and the call for holiness that a personal relationship with Jesus requires. His look at seven pillars of Catholic spirituality is an objective take on what makes us Catholic and how, if applied, will renew the inner life of the individual. His section on fasting and discipline is a real slap on the hand to most of us, as it should be.
Kelly makes a passionate plea for a return to virtue and calls on all who claim the Catholic faith to look to Jesus and emulate His call to evangelization. Through servant leadership, courage, and Christian character that comes from a personal and growing faith in Jesus, we as a people, will draw the sinner to Christ.
This book will challenge even the weakest to become more bold in what Christ and His Church would look like if we all hungered and thirst after righteousness.

This is an excellent and inspiring book with so many thought-provoking ideas and suggestions to live a more Christ-centered life. Rediscovering Catholicism should be required reading for not only all Catholics (especially those who have willfully pulled away from the Church) but for people of all faiths. It thoroughly addresses the three major philosophies that have so readily and indiscriminately found their way into our present western culture i.e. individualism, hedonism, and minimalism and passes along centuries-old wisdom on what is the only true path to overcome these empty ways of living. Matthew Kelly writes in a simple prose style that should be easily understandable for readers 12 and older which is of importance because I believe that teenagers especially and the youth of our society should read this book and fully digest what it says! The youth are the ones who are the most easily influenced, desensitized, and targeted by the internet and all forms of media. They need food for the soul and an insight into the spiritual life which Matthew Kelly more than provides in this book. In addition, this book is an excellent introduction to the Catholic faith as well. I will be passing along this book as a Christmas gift for many people this year. God bless!
I highly recommend this book. Matthew Kelley is a highly motivated author who keeps your interest and gets you motivated as well. I was captivated from page one until the end. I like how he uses real life instances to make his point and help you understand how God is helping to guide us toward a better life on earth. He is truly an inspiration to improving our lives.
