Love Unveiled unfolds the love of God revealed in the teachings and practices of the Catholic Church. Curtis Martin, Founder, Fellowship of Catholic University Students (FOCUS) "Edward Sri shows how Catholicism presents a God who is anything but disinterested, a God who is deeply personal and desires to share His very life with us… with you." Jason Evert, Author, Saint John Paul the Great Sri has done just this through his characteristic charity and clarity, revealing the harmony and richness of the Catholic faith." "The Church is a bride whose beauty will speak for itself when she is unveiled. John Bergsma, Professor of Theology, Franciscan University of Steubenville This is a superb introduction to the Catholic way of life!" He reveals the Catholic Faith as not just a set of beliefs but a lifestyle filled with love. "Edward Sri is one of the best teachers of the faith in our generation. Cardinal George Pell, Prefect, Secretariat for the Economy Catholic answers that only the faith can provide." It is a book for those with questions seeking answers. This book helps us to understand all that short phrase means. His presentation is clear and simple, and it goes straight to the heart of the matter (and the hearts of readers)." Sri shows divine love as the inner logic of the Catholic faith - the one thing that makes sense of everything we believe and do. "This book will be a breakthrough for many people. It aims to form both the head and the heart, not only helping us to understand Jesus and his plan of salvation, but inspiring us to love God and our neighbor better. More than an intellectual enterprise, this work is also a deep spiritual reflection and a practical guide to living out our faith in Christ. ![]() Why do Catholics and Protestants disagree?
