Reviews
Blessed Are You makes the Beatitudes come alive with meaning and relevance. As with the other books in the Discipleship Series, Chris Ruff takes you deeper than a theoretical study of the Faithinto a shared experience of following Jesus and building his Kingdom in the world today. Truly second to none! -- Chris Stefanick Founder and President of Real Life Catholic This expanding set of small group resources is aptly named the Discipleship Series. I recommend it wholeheartedly to individuals, groups, parishes, and dioceses that wish to foster a deeper, fuller discipleship in Christ. -- Archbishop Jerome E. Listecki Archdiocese of Milwaukee
