Jennifer Fulwiler told herself she was happy. Why wouldn't she be? She made good money as a programmer at a hot tech start-up, had just married a guy with a stack of Ivy League degrees, and lived in a twenty-first-floor condo where she could sip sauvignon blanc while watching the sun set behind the hills of Austin. Raised in a happy, atheist home, Jennifer had the freedom to think for herself and play by her own rules. Yet a creeping darkness followed her all of her life. Finally, one winter night, it drove her to the edge of her balcony, making her ask once and for all why anything mattered. At that moment everything she knew and believed was shattered. Asking the unflinching questions about life and death, good and evil, led Jennifer to Christianity, the religion she had reviled since she was an awkward, sceptical child growing up in the Bible Belt. Mortified by this turn of events, she hid her quest from everyone except her husband, concealing religious books in opaque bags as if they were porn and locking herself in public bathroom stalls to read the Bible. Just when Jennifer had a profound epiphany that gave her the courage to convert, she was diagnosed with a life-threatening medical condition-and the only treatment was directly at odds with the doctrines of her new-found faith. Something Other Than God is a poignant, profound and often funny tale of one woman who set out to find the meaning of life and discovered that true happiness sometimes requires losing it all. 256 pages. Jennifer Fulwiler is a programmer-turned-writer who chronicles her experiences of faith and family life on her popular blog, ConversionDiary. Com. Her articles have also appeared in America, Our Sunday Visitor, Envoy and National Review Online. She has been a guest on the television shows Fox and Friends, Life on the Rock, and The Choices We Face, and and was also the subject of the reality show Minor Revisions. She and her husband, Joe, live in Austin, Texas, with their six young children.

This extra strong rosary puts my prayers on a new higher level.As I proceed thru all the prayers I am lifted up by the beauty and the elegance of this rosary. The rosary prayer came from heaven and the rosary itself should reflect some of that beauty and elegance. What a difference this rosary has on my own prayer life ! Love to all. JFM

I want to take a moment to thank the Catholic Shop for their impeccable service and prompt responses. There was a minor issue with one of the bracelets I ordered and it became a non-issue instantly. I was so pleasantly surprised and so happy and received a replacement within days with NO hassles. I have received MANY compliments on my bracelets...

Thank You Sooo much for the most Beautiful gift I’ll be giving to my Son this Easter Weekend when he will be Baptized as a Catholic at 29 years old. He has been studying for about 2 years and has the most Amazing Wife supporting his journey to join her. I will be returning to you for future gifts and guidance on gifts!! The Saint John Bosco...
