Randy Hain - Journey to Heaven: A Road Map for Catholic Men

ENDORSEMENTS FOR JOURNEY TO HEAVEN: A ROAD MAP FOR CATHOLIC MEN

In this book, Randy Hain gets right to the heart of what manhood is all about and how we guys can find our way in a culture that does not always value masculine virtues. With our eyes set on heaven, all our priorities in life naturally fall into place.

Editor of Fathers for Good, Knights of Columbus

We have two choices: We become saints or we go to hell. There is no in-between. A saint, by definition, is someone who makes it to heaven. Randy Hain gives a very practical road map to Catholic men to help them on this journey to heaven. I encourage men to read this book and get help in their daily walk with Christ!

Journey to Heaven is a book Im thrilled to share with both of my young adults sons. Author Randy Hain does a terrific job of providing a practical, spiritually-based and tremendously engaging road map for men of all ages who desire to live a life fully devoted to Gods will.

Mr. Randy Hain has produced for Catholic and Christian men that which the title proclaims, A Road Map, ultimately to heaven. The book is encyclopedic in its scope of suggestions and exercises for a man to live out his faith more deeply for his own spiritual benefit as well as for the Christian leadership of his family.

Most Rev. Robert F. Vasa
Bishop of Santa Rosa

Randy Hain has given men a clear and concise commentary on the most important aspects of our masculine lives, our ultimate goal in conforming to Christ. With his characteristically straightforward style, Randy makes a compelling case for the need men have to live a decidedly masculine pragmatic and intentional life directed both towards God and those around us. Our Lords greatest commandment comes through in every chapter of this wonderful book along with insightful questions to compel men to think deeply about this message. I highly recommend it to men not only for reading but for action.

Dan Spencer
Executive Director of National Fellowship of Catholic Men

Men are often pegged as disliking road maps or directions. But, Randy Hains engaging new book empowers men to take the reins as spiritual leaders, providers, and protectors. Hains passion for guiding men of all ages shines through each page as he steers them clear of false idols in the culture and unambiguously points out the essential road to heaven. No matter where you are on the road map of life, this book will give you the Catholic tools, the kick in the butt and the pat on the back you need!

It is essential for every journey to know the destination and the best course to arrive there. The final sanctum is heaven but todays world does not make it easy for men to remain on the narrow path. Randy Hain has provided Catholic men with a great resource to navigate the challenges our culture presents. This book offers very sincere and concrete advice to Catholic men on integrating faith, family life, and work. Randy Hain is able to seamlessly weave the wisdom of the Church with practical insights from leading Catholic men to shed light on our pilgrimage to heaven. No Catholic man serious about being holy should leave home without this road map.

If all you do is read the chapter on Saint Joseph, youll be a better man for it. But read the rest, so youll be a much better man. Your family will benefit from the difference this book makes.

First let me begin with a heartfelt thank you! What a wonderful book. Talk about divine intervention, as I needed a good book to read for Lent. I was amazed at the depth of Randy Hains Catholic faith and knowledge, especially for someone who only came to the Church less than ten years ago! This book is a must read for ALL Catholic men. Cradle Catholics, RCIA Catholics and Catechumens alike. A manly reminder that being a man is not to be frowned upon or taken lightly. It is to be embraced
and portrayed!

As with his other works, Journey to Heaven continues Randy Hains conversational style he has honed in his speaking and writing opportunities. Focusing on the call for men to be leaders of their families, this new work outlines how the challenge of totally embracing our Catholic faith can make dynamic differences in our lives and in the lives of our families. Sharing the knowledge of so many Catholic men who he has worked with over the past years, this new book shows the beauty of life lived to the fullness in the Catholic Church and offers us men the opportunity to be iron for each other that we may support each other in the challenge to be
dynamically Catholic.

Father Kyle Schnippel

We all want to be better men! Facing the myriad of daily demands and challenges that weigh upon as leaders, fathers and husbands, it is difficult to focus on what we can do to be better. It is easy to grow weary with the immensity of our daily responsibilities. In Randy Hains excellent and powerful new book Journey to Heaven , he not only encourages us, he arms us with knowledge, hope and the plan that Christ provides for each of us. Through examples from Scripture, the saints and personal experience Randy offers the modern Catholic man guidance, brotherhood and strength for the journey. In Journey to Heaven we see the vocation given to us by God Himself come alive and something truly amazing happens. In the process of reading this book, as you seek solutions for increasing holiness and managing your own life, one comes to understand that the struggle IS the mission. Gods love for us is manifested in the burdens of our daily lives. In our personal call to holiness, through caring for wives, children, employees, coworkers and friends, we find God! His burdens become His blessing!

Journey to Heaven: A Road Map For Catholic Men is a powerful and practical guide for the man who recognizes that he was meant to live for more than the paltry and shallow call of our culture. If you are looking for answers about how to be the man that God has called you to be, you wont find a better resource than this.
