Broken and Blessed

An Invitation to My Generation

By: Fr. Josh Johnson

Narrated by: Fr. Josh Johnson

Only two in 10 Americans under 30 believe attending a church is important or worthwhile. Well over half of young adults raised in the Church have dropped out, with many having a strong anti-Church stance, many even believing the Church does more harm than good. Fr. Josh Johnson was one of these people. In Broken and Blessed, he tackles the harsh realities facing the Church in the 21st century.

With charity and courage, he speaks to his own generation of Catholic millennials, who often feel their needs and concerns are not being addressed by the Church or simply do not believe the Catholic faith has any relevance to their lives. Using his own experiences, both as a former struggling young Catholic and as a priest, Fr. Josh offers an inspiring witness of how he came to know God, rather than just knowing about him, and presents practical ways for us to truly know God as well.

Broken and Blessed:

• Addresses head-on millennials' most pressing issues with the Catholic faith
• Presents powerful and inspiring stories from Fr. Josh's own faith journey
• Shows how one can truly encounter Jesus in a personal way
• Offers practical insights on how to overcome habitual sins
• Discusses the nature of prayer, as well as the challenges to prayer and how to overcome them

Encouraging

Heartfelt book with challenges to step out of our current zone and great practical steps to make those changes. I look forward to using it as a group study with our parish young adults but it’s a great book for all adults.

Amazing listen

If you need a refresh in your Catholic Faith or your own retreat..this is your book. Father Josh is an amazing writer with such great wisdom. He makes it easy to understand the many complicated questions we get asked as Catholics. Will listen to it a gain. Thank you Father Josh for being such a bright light....so talented at story telling too.

Great listen!

Great strategies for a closer walk with Jesus and others on the journey. Honest, open, and hope-filled!

I'm a dullard and this book taught me how to pray with purpose. Fr Josh is so relatable and full of passion that is very inspiring. I pray this book reaches those of us who struggle with our prayer life.
