A Little Book about Big Things

Wow...this book must be the ligthtest heavy reading I've ever done. But then again, how else could a book about the papacy be only 100 pages? I may be describing this book as light heavy reading, but it's like this: most things I got on the first read; a few things I had to read two or three times. Still, though...I'm completely surprised the authors were able to make it that simple. If there's one thing I know, it's that the papacy is a complex topic. This book does an excellent job at helping the reader learn about the papacy and gets past those complexities with flying colors. Everything most people would ever want to know about the papacy is in here; and, for you overachievers, there's an appendix at the end of the book. I, for one, would like to know more about their motto's.
