Our Faith is ancient and universal, could you be a little more specific about what area you are interested in?

if you are partial to our Blessed Mother, St Alphonsus Liguori's "the Glories of Mary" is a must read


i also really loved our ex-host's conversion book "crossing the tiber"

Love ya, FS. I'm going to add a note, if someone is new to the Faith, I'd suggest moving St Liguori further on the reading list.

I'd suggest beginning with the US Catechism for Adults

https://www.usccb.org/sites/default/fil ... ge-1.html#

Catholicism For Dummies (don't be offended by the title!)

Then moving on to some of Sheed's work, "Theology for Beginners" is a good starting point.

"Theology for Beginners" is excellent, so easy to understand. Great suggestion!
