Publisher's summary

How can we believe and be transformed by the gospel? Once we understand that the gospel is not merely good news but explosive, life-changing news, we will never be the same again. And in response to God's work in our lives, what part can we play in recreating the world for his good plan? In this powerful audiobook, Fr. John Riccardo helps us to see the world through God's lens, with a clear vision of the future.

Ambush Predator

Fr. Riccardo brings a contemporary interpretation of the Gospel that really makes you think. Wait until you get to the part about Jesus being an 'ambush predator.' Quick read, well written and narrated. Highly recommend you pick this up.

Exceptional

I could not put it down! It is a rose among books where even its thorns are thoroughly motivating. I purchased it for my teens and will give it as a gift to as many as possible and I; well, I will read it again and again and again.

Love This Book

I have always loved listening to Fr John so when I heard about this book I knew I needed to read it. I learned so much and most importantly looked at the Gospel and the life Jesus differently. I’ve been feeling like I have something else to do and now I feel like I’ve been guided. I can’t recommend this book more! Thank you Fr John

Amazing and transformative!

As a cradle Catholic I found this message to be inspiring. “Rescued people, rescue people.” Let’s go spread the good news!!

Excellent dive into the real meaning of Christian faith

Father Ricardo does a beautiful job of bringing the true Gospel message to light. As he points out, it’s not just the Gospel message (though that is its culmination) but the message that God has been sharing for millennia.

Perfect

This is a perfect way to understand our faith and the story of salvation. Fr Riccardo explained it in such a way that I can appreciateit deeper even the things I already know.
