Very good, but has some real basic errors.
I won this book on Goodreads and I learned a lot from it: I hadn't realized that such a thing as "Evangelical Catholicism" existed. Robert Barron, the author of this book and the movement's leader, is well educated in the history of religion and the details he provided about daily life in Jesus's time are fascinating. (his description of the Temple in Jerusalem stands out). So do his anecdotes about the lives of famous Catholics like Dorothy Day and Mother Teresa. But anecdotes are not the point of this book; Catholicism is. Like many educated and ardent believers, Barron writes eloquently about his religion. I'm still sticking with mine.
