The Biggest Lie In The History Of Christrianity



This book was given to us by our church in December.  It is a quick and very easy book to read.  Matthew Kelly, is the founder of The Dynamic Catholic Institute, a speaker, a business consultant and an author.  

This is my first Matthew Kelly book and I would recommend this to anyone who would like to read  about living our lives to the fullest, to be the best versions of ourselves and to strive to flourish instead of just surviving.  He does not try to convince us to be Catholics or to scare us to his belief.  He implores and inspires us to exercise One Holy Moment at a time.

In this fast zoom zoom modern era where everybody is just eyeing for the next promotion, next added digit to our salary, next bigger office,  nobody really care about kindness, respect, or even more so for holiness.  Most of us think holiness is just attainable to just a chosen few.

How can we promote holy moments when we struggle just to be nice to ourselves and to each other.  We wake up in the wrong side of the bed, had a bad hair day, don't have enough caffeine,  then we easily succumb to being mean and rude.   Instead of congratulating a person for getting more responsibility or promotion, people end up testing his/her character just to prove that they are better.  But with so many books like this being given away, we can only hope that very slowly... one holy moment at a time... we are all going to try to be more humane to ourselves and to one another.
