Being a Catholic defines a big part of who I am in life today. I go to church every week either with my friends when I am at school or with my family when I am at home. At school and at home I am involved within the church for example I am a lector at my church at home and I am a Eucharistic ministry at school. I make sure my faith is during the school year; I could not get through a week at school without going to church on Sunday. I chose Pope Benedict XVI as the public intellectual person I want to research because religion and being a Catholic as I said earlier is important to me; without religion there would be a part of me missing in life.
Pope Benedict XVI has written a number of books. Some of the books are about specific saints such as Saint Paul and other books are about Jesus. Each book Pope Benedict writes is special to him, and he puts his best thoughts into the book he is writing at the time. The books reflect on what the facts and his feelings about Christianity. Some examples of his books are Friendship with Jesus, A Study Guide for Jesus, and Light of the World. I have not read any of his books, but I am sure that a few of his books were interest me if I decided to read them. Pope Benedict XVI has many good qualities to him, and with his knowledge about Christianity and Jesus, I am sure to learn new interesting facts about my religion that I am so closely too.
Here is a link that lists his books that has written. His books are inspirational to many people.
