We highly recommend this book." -Peter J. Wagner, founder of RCNet "Technology really can be used for God's glory and brother John shows us how." -Michael Cox, reporter for The Catholic Free Press "One could argue that if Saint Paul were on this earth today, he would be using the Internet. . . . Brother John has done us all a favor." -Rev. Peter M. J. Stravinskas, editor of The Catholic Answer "In easily understood language, the book offers some highly useful information about what the Internet is, how it's organized and what's on it for Catholics." -Loretta G. Seyer, editor of Catholic Faith and Family "You will go back to this book time and time again." -Owen Phelps, Catholic Connect! Also includes Spanish language Web sites
Obviously this is not a book that you would sit down and read from one end to the other. What is wonderful about this book becomes clear if you have ever used a search engin looking for information on the Roman Catholic Church. Brother John Raymond uses little icons on the far edge of the page so you can quickly flip through and find a site to explore. I am getting my Masters in Theology and the he has an icon for theology. He also has icons for websites for books, Catholic culture and Liturgy and Prayer to name a few. This is a great book for anyone who surfs the web and is interested in Roman Catholicism.
