Think Well On It / Bishop Richard Challoner

This book may well be the most powerful and persuasive writing you will ever encounter on the overriding advisability of heeding the dire warning of the Gospel, converting to a strict Catholic life and abandoning all sin. Not only does Bishop Challoner call us to reflect on the sayings of Our Lord, but also on the meaning of the events of His life and bitter Passion. 157 pgs PB Imp.

 

The Most Rev. Richard Challoner was a bishop and leading Catholic figure in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Most recognized for his revision of the Douay Reims Bible, he originally received Holy Orders in 1716 at Tournai, Belgium. He later disciplined himself earnestly, was highly charitable, and possessed the gift of prayer in a marked degree. His many written works include Think Well on It, Grounds of Catholic Doctrine, The Ground of Old Religion, The Life of St. Teresa, The Morality of the Bible, and Rules of Life for a Christian. Bishop Challoner died after a two-day illness on the twelfth of January, 1781, at the age of 89.
