From The Cover

Return to the basics, the "meat and potatoes" of our faith, with Fr. Joe Classen!

What is so special about Sacraments?

How did the rituals and traditions of the Mass get started?

Why do we have a pope?

What's the point of going to confession?

Father Joe Classen has heard all these questions and more from parishioners, fishing buddies, neighbors, and acquaintances. They seem to recognize right away that this straight-shooting and approachable young priest speaks a language they understand.

You will find real questions and direct answers from a passionate, engaging priest who wants nothing more than to share his love of the Faith in real life terms. Get to know what the Church teaches and why, and discover Father Joe's secret recipe for a happier, more fulfilling life.

From Meat and Potatoes Catholicism by Rev. Joe Classen:
"It's the disregarding of the 'meat and potatoes' of our faith that has caused such weakness and atrophy in our Church and in our people....
 
"As Catholics, we need to go back to the dinner table, pull ourselves up, and dig into a hearty helping of spiritual meat and potatoes. We need to nourish ourselves and feed voraciously on the basic fundamentals of our Catholic faith and redefine the way we live our lives. It's never too late to restore our spiritual health, to take back what we may have lost, or rightfully claim what we may never have received in the first place. But nobody is going to force-feed us. We're big boys and girls now, and we need to take care of ourselves and start eating right!"
