This month, we’re featuring Journey to Reality: Sacramental Life in a Secular Age by Dr. Zachary Porcu. A new addition to our cathedral bookstore, this easy-to-read work explores the contrast between the secular worldview and the sacramental worldview. 

“An inquirer into Christianity could read a dozen works on the faith and still not encounter the insights found in this genial gem of a book.” — Dn. Nicholas Dujmovic

In just 137 pages, Dr. Porcu covers a lot of ground and pinpoints some of our most deep-seated assumptions about the world. He uses many relatable examples and analogies to help the reader develop a sacramental mindset and encourage a truly Christian way of life. 

Dr. Porcu has a PhD in church history as well as degrees in philosophy, classics, and interdisciplinary humanities and writes with an informed but approachable style.


The book is available for purchase at our cathedral bookstore for $15. We will also be hosting a book study on Journey to Reality starting October 15. Check out this page to learn more and sign up.
