The Price of Being a Christian

By Richard J. Hart

Fr, Richard J. Hart brings years of preaching experience to the question of the cost of discipleship. The price tag in following Jesus is high-a life of self-giving. The reader (and pray-er) of this text will be challenged to look at life through Gospel eyes. This book is a call to conversion. -Robert F. Morneau, Auxiliary Bishop of Green Bay With a wide range of sources, Richard Hart has provided a handbook on the way of being a disciple in our world. Fidelity to this discipleship involves rewards and challenges. It will be a reward to read it-Michael Crosby Just as Dietrich Bonhoeffer warned against "cheap grace," the belief that one gains forgiveness without contrition, communion without confession, grace without discipleship, Hart beckons us away from the materialist, secularist temptation to avoid, at all costs, the sacrifices that are indivisible from our relationship with Christ. -Joshua Hren Richard J. Hart regularly leads parish renewals and retreats. He is the author of several spiritual books.
