Do I Have to Go?
When I first saw this book in my religious ed class, I didn’t have very high expectations. I was so surprised! After flipping through it, I purchased it a few weeks later at my local Catholic bookstore, and I couldn’t put it down! I read the whole book in a quick plane flight, and after stepping off that plane, I was ready to mapquest the nearest church… it was time for Mass! Matthew Pinto and Chris Stefanick do a brilliant job explaining everything from our not-so-monotonous traditions, the true Presence, and prayer, to liturgical seasons and what worship truly is. Do I Have to Go? has a permanent place on my bookshelf, and I reference it frequently. Concise, easy to read, and geared towards teens, this is a perfect resource for anyone who wants to learn more about the mass.
As a teen, I myself have wondered about many of the questions that are covered in this book. I found the answers to be clear and helpful. The book is 100% orthodox and is totally going to change the way that you view Mass and the awesome gift of the Eucharist. It is full of REAL questions from REAL teens who really want to learn about their faith. It takes you from the perspective of “Do I Have to Go?” to “When’s Sunday?? I can’t wait!”The book is really interesting, great for reading in short sittings, and It explains everything in with clarity and in a way that teens can relate to. So what are you waiting for? Get ready to read an awesome question and answer book and learn a ton about your faith. I can promise you this- Mass will never be the same.
