Don't Just Try... Train - Matthew Kelly
If you wanted to run a marathon, how would you go about it? You could go out and start the race, but what are the chances you would finish? It wouldn’t matter how hard you tried... You would most likely fail. A running coach would say to you, “Don’t just try... Train! Run one mile a day for a week, then two, then three...

Inspiring yet practical, Kelly offers a life-changing message and a valuable training partner for life’s spiritual marathon.

Gangland to Promised Land - John Pridmore
He was a serious “face” in London’s East End. His jackets were tailored to hold his machete and knuckledusters. His drug deals made him wealthy. Then something extraordinary happened... John Pridmore spoke at the 2008 World Youth Day and on EWTN about what Christ has done in his life. His powerful story has inspired hundreds of thousands to grow in their faith.
