Always be ready to give an explanation to anyone who asks you for a reason for your hope
If you panic when asked about your Catholic faith, here’s a resource to calm you down and build up your confidence. Nancy Ward can embolden you to respond to the nudges of the Holy Spirit and evangelize through your conversion or renewal stories.
In Part One of Sharing Your Catholic Faith Story, she answers the pivotal question, “How do I share my faith story?” She demonstrates as she tells her conversion story, how she overcame her reticence to share her faith. She equips you with the tools to craft a compelling testimony. Ten tips on how always to speak the truth in love help you confidently share how God is writing his love story on your heart.
In Part Two, the testimonies of 30 Catholics reveal the God-moments of joy that changed their lives forever through conversion, religious vocations, renewal or return to Catholicism. This captivating combination of methods, motivation, and models of Christian witness, delivers a one-volume awe-inspiring treasure to rouse the hearts of courageous readers like you who dare to become new witnesses of the new evangelization. Take to heart St. Paul’s encouragement to Timothy,
I remind you to stir into flame the gift of God that you have through the imposition of my hands. For God did not give us a spirit of cowardice but rather of power and love and self-control. So do not be ashamed of your testimony to our Lord. (2 Timothy 1:16)
