As baptized Christians, we are called to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ. But that has become increasingly difficult in today's post-Christian culture, which has largely rejected God and Christian beliefs. This is the primary field where most of us are called to sow and harvest for the kingdom, and a culture antithetical to Christianity requires a different approach. Philosophy provides some common ground with the modern world as well as tools to think rationally about who we are and what we were made for.
Thinking Clearly is your introduction to philosophy in the Catholic tradition and a guide to having difficult conversations about faith, morality, the human person, and more, using natural human insights.
Philosophy is the study of what can be known by universal experience, so the ground from which philosophy starts is as common as you can get. Once you initiate a philosophical discussion, though, it's up to you to show how that discussion can end up at God. Ultimately, that's where good philosophy leads, and this book will help you get started.

In the midst of a culture that is increasingly confused about sexuality, love, life, and our very identity as persons, the Church offers us the truth of who we are. Reclaiming Motherhood from a Culture Gone Mad helps Catholics peel back societal assumptions to understand the fundamental misconceptions fueling our culture’s attacks on marriage, motherhood, and the family. Examining current practices in light of these faulty assumptions will empower women in their own motherhood and equip Catholics to combat the culture of confusion by boldly proclaiming God’s vision for our lives.
Sharing the faith doesn't have to be complicated. After all, Jesus himself just started with one person. Here are practical pointers from the author's own story and those of many others to help you share your faith joyfully, casually, confidently—and with compassion.
We are all called — yes, all of us — to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ. But when it comes down to it, many Catholics don’t know when, why, or how. Believe it or not, you can learn the skills you need for evangelization, starting today.
