Publisher's summary

A preacher's kid at a Catholic university, Kevin Lowry settled into a double major in beer and billiards soon followed by uncomfortable run-ins with pious students, failing grades, increasing anxiety, a missing night, and the startling realization that some fellow students actually attended Mass the morning after a party instead of sleeping it off.

After getting kicked out, Kevin got his act together, got the MBA, and also got the girl. Meanwhile, God was working, drawing him to the inevitable conclusion that Catholicism was all true despite his objections.

Kevin Lowry's journey to Catholicism is fascinating, often funny, and demonstrates God's unfailing, patient love for all of us.

Amazing book

Easily one of the best books I've read / listened too. I will be attending RCIA this year. As a lifelong protestant this book really helped me answer some questions I still had about conversion.

Interesting to hear his conversion story

I quite enjoyed this audiobook and find it incredibly interesting to hear people’s story, their life experiences that brought them to or back to the Catholic Church. The book held my interest and was amusing at times and easily understandable.

Interesting

Good narration of personal conversion and explanation of how the usual stumbling blocks to Catholic teachings were overcome. Not preachy or boring.

loved it; all my kids should read it!

I am, as many people, looking to grow my faith and struggle sometimes. This book is a journey that is experienced by so many that actually search for truth.
I hope my children will read it and come away with a much better understanding of their Catholic faith.
