Rooted in the great mystery of God, the Christian life requires a multitude of virtues, the most primary of which is faith. For it is only with faith that one’s mind, will, imagination—indeed one’s entire being—can be directed unequivocally toward God, through Christ. A contemporary spiritual classic by Bonaventure Perquin, Help My Unbelief! traces the wide-reaching effects of a blossoming faith. Fully abandoning one’s self in favor of continuous acts of faith creates an intimacy with Christ that manifests itself in a greater appreciation of the sacraments and deeper relationships with the Lord and His Blessed Mother. The process is not a quick or an easy one, and one often may not be able to see the harvest of his labors. Yet the benefits of true faith are not only for one’s own salvation, but also for that of the whole Church.

Help My Unbelief!

Bonaventure Perquin

By William Thomas Walsh
"Thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church" (Matthew 16:18). Seldom in all history has mere man been charged with such an awesome responsibility as was delegated to the Prince of Apostles when Our Lord uttered these words. And it is the story of this humble fisherman, so curiously neglected by modern authors, that William Thomas Walsh tells so brilliantly. 
Skillfully arranging all the scattered facts that the New Testament, tradition, and archaeological discoveries and patient historical research have revealed, he provides a vivid and dramatic record of the hot-headed, impetuous, devoted follow of Christ who thrice denied his Master and yet was chosen by Him to be the Keeper of the Keys and the head of His Church. Here is the long, painful, exciting journey travelled by the fisherman of Galilee as he is transformed from a figure of shifting sand to one of rock--Peter the Rock--martyred in Rome. 
It is a glowing and inspiring picture, full of warmth and color, which reproduces the early days of the Church, the great figures of early Christendom and above all the towering colossus who became the Vicar of Christ on earth, the first pope.
