Book Review - Resisting Happiness by Matthew Kelly

As a parish priest, I led a book review on Resisting Happiness in my parish.  The book was very well received by those who read it.  We got a deal where we received a lot of these books and gave them out to parishioners.  I have found that Matthew Kelly books have similar themes.  They are easy to read, with the flow of ideals and length of chapters very accessible.   The "best version of yourself" is a common theme in Matthew Kelly in his books.  Like the title, a lot of the book is how we put resistance in our own paths, thus hindering us on our journey of faith.  I would definitely use Matthew Kelly in a book study again, but perhaps after a while.  Next, we will be reading a biography of Mother Teresa of Calcutta.
