“Informative, inspiring, and passionate—Casting Nets offers spiritual advice through fascinating personal anecdotes, Church teaching, and encouragement to be a people of prayer, pursuing holiness and reaching out in evangelization.”

Donna-Marie Cooper O’Boyle, Eternal Word Television Network host, speaker, and award-winning author of twenty books

“Tony and Chris are a great team not only because of their knowledge of the Catholic faith, but especially because of their love for the Church and their zeal for souls. Their book is a powerful answer to the Holy Father’s call for a New Evangelization.”

Jason Evert, Catholic author and speaker, www.chastityproject.com

“Catholics everywhere are looking for practical tips to proclaim the Gospel, and to invite friends and family to know, love, and serve Jesus Christ and His Church. Casting Nets offers an easy-to-understand guide to the universal call for a New Evangelization.”

Bishop James D. Conley, Diocese of Lincoln, Nebraska

“In his Letter to the Romans, St. Paul asks, ‘How are they to believe in Him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without a preacher?’ What a pity it would be for someone to lose out on meeting Jesus Christ because we feel unqualified to share the Good News. In this powerful book, Chris Stewart and Tony Brandt provide the tools necessary to share Jesus with those around us. After reading it, you will not only feel a greater desire to evangelize, but you’ll feel confident that you can do it. Highly recommended!”

Gary Zimak, Catholic speaker and author of Faith, Hope, & Clarity: How to Know God’s Will

“If you have a desire to share your Catholic faith with neighbors and with family, with friends and with co-workers, with people who have left the Church and those who have never heard the Gospel, then Casting Nets: Grow Your Faith by Sharing Your Faith is a must read. Tony and Chris have years of experience in spreading the Good News, and through their humor, stories, and passion they share with us how to effectively bring others to Jesus Christ and His Catholic Church.”

Chris Stefanick, Catholic author and speaker, www.reallifecatholic.com

“Here is a practical guide to build confidence in sharing the Good News of our Catholic faith. Casting Nets helps us act on Jesus’ instruction when he exhorts, ‘What you received as a gift, you must give as a gift!’ (Mt 10:8).”

Archbishop Paul S. Coakley, Archdiocese of Oklahoma City

“It was Pope St. John Paul the Great, herald of the New Evangelization, who famously wrote, ‘Faith is strengthened when it is given to others!’” In their new book, Casting Nets: Grow Your Faith by Sharing Your Faith, Catholic evangelists Chris Stewart and Tony Brandt masterfully capture and synthesize the meaning and power of these words, and present a compelling theology of evangelization that will encourage and inspire their readers to grow more deeply in their faith while at the same time equipping them to share it more effectively with others. Written in an eminently simple yet thoroughly engaging way, Chris and Tony skillfully present the key principles and practices that are essential for all evangelizers, which is precisely what every baptized Catholic is called to be. This is the kind of book that all pastors should put in the hands of their parishioners. You’d start a spiritual revolution in no time. It’s called the New Evangelization.
