Reviews of the book:
“If you want the real story about Opus Dei, Scott Hahn will give you the shocking truth—the shock of a Gospel life lived effectively in the midst of the world. Like all his other books, this one will challenge your view of the Christian life.â€
—Father Benedict J. Groeshcel, C.F.R., author of Arise From Darkness
“Scott Hahn’s abilities as a scholar, teacher, and writer are already well known. But the story of his journey to Opus Dei that emerges here, and his portrait of The Work remind us that each of us, no matter what our vocation or state of life, is called to holiness. This is compelling reading.â€
—Charles J. Chaput, O.F.M. Cap., Archbishop of Denver
