Description: "The world in which we live, with its emphasis on materialism over spirituality, would have been all too familiar to John Henry Newman, the celebrated nineteenth-century Anglican preacher who converted to Roman Catholicism."--BOOK JACKET. "In this original selection of his public sermons, private prayers, and devotions, he guides a new generation of thoughtful believers to the Word of God, teaching them how to be in this world but not of it, how to reconcile faith and reason."--BOOK JACKET.
