The religious order to which I have a connection limits my primary reading to two dozen books. The core of my little library consists of:
- Bible, unabridged Revised Standard Version
- The Liturgy of the Hours, bilingual ed.
- Homilies on John; St John Chrysostom
- The City of God; by Saint Augustine
- Dante’s Divine Comedy; Anthony Esolen
- Plays & Sonnets; William Shakespeare
- Collected Poems & Prose; Robert Frost
- Compendium of the Catholic Catechism
I entered the Catholic Church on Easter 2007, having come from a charismatic Wesleyan background. I’m a member of St George, a Melkite Greek Catholic parish in Sacramento. This blog is my attempt to answer the question: Why are you Catholic.
We recently moved to the Sierra foothills, having grown up in the Virginia section of the Southern Blue Ridge Province in the Appalachian Mountains.
