In the first volume of Find the Faith, Jeff Vehige explains what it means to have a realized faith built upon rock-solid convictions.
Leading the reader through the halls of philosophy, theology, history, and Sacred Scripture, Vehige shows that it is both logical and reasonable to believe that God exists, that God has revealed himself in the person of Jesus of Nazareth, and that the Catholic Church is the Church instituted by Christ himself.
Beginning with a discussion on the relationship of faith and reason, he covers important topics such as our natural knowledge of God through creation, why it's logical to believe God has revealed himself in Jesus Christ, the historical reliability of the Gospels, the importance of the Resurrection for Christian faith, and how Christ established Peter to be his Vicar on earth. These topics are of the utmost importance, for only those Catholics with a realized faith will remain faithful to Christ and his Church during these troubled times.
Vehige writes: "I have one goal for this book—to help you establish solid, bedrock foundations for your faith in God, in Christ, and in the Church. Faith needs reasons to be strong, and this book provides some of the reasons why it's rational to be a believing Catholic. This book is not about what you believe, but why you believe it."
