The Four Signs of a Dynamic Catholic:
The Four Signs of a Dynamic Catholic By: Matthew Kelly
Non-Fiction: Religion 217 pages
First, this book does not have a book count as it took me over a year to read it. (Because just borrowing a copy of the book would have been much more boring then reading a few pages at a time.) So having looked back to the front of the book the four signs were: Prayer, Study, Generosity, and Evangalization. Each sign had it's own section with more information on the subject, data from the survey of the top 7% most active parishioners from various parishes where he got the data of what things Dynamic Catholics had in common and things to do to add it into one's life.
