Bible-Based Catholicism and Spiritual Inspirations

by Robert J. Ferretti, M.D.

This book outlines a Catholic perspective on faith, deeply rooted in biblical references and theological reasoning. Dr. Ferretti aims to deepen Catholics’ understanding of their faith while providing non-Catholics and non-believers with insights into the principles of Catholicism. Drawing on personal experiences and insights from readings about the lives and revelations of Catholic saints, Dr. Ferretti advocates for embracing sacrifice and detachment from materialism as pathways to spiritual growth. The work invites readers to reflect on faith’s scriptural foundations, aiming to foster a deeper commitment to living a Christ-centered life in accordance with Catholic teachings.

In addition to this background in fields of biology and human medicine, he has also spent many years working as a volunteer sidewalk counselor outside several of the New York abortion centers, beginning in 1999. He also has read many books on the spiritual lives and miracles of several Catholic saints and mystics, and the many revelations that God gave to them.
