“Most Catholics have no problem practicing their faith...while they’re still in church. Once Mass is over, however, it gets much more challenging. In his book When Faith Causes Family Friction, Dr. Ray Guarendi addresses several of the most common difficulties that arise from living the Catholic faith at home, in the workplace, and in the real world. In a clear and succinct manner (with lots of humor thrown in), he tells us what we need to know in order to really live our faith 24/7. Highly recommended!” —Gary Zimak, speaker and author, Faith, Hope, and Clarity
