The Resistance

di John Riccardo (Autore)

Image, 2026

The beloved author of Rescued invites readers to discover the story of the God who creates, rescues, and mobilizes us to share in the work of restoring the human family and recreating this world which He so loves. We all know the conflict that lives in every soul and affects our whole world: that our lives are of infinite worth and yet something is radically amiss. Faced with the gap between what we know in our hearts life should look like and the ways human existence falls short, we are tempted to despair: to suspect that God, if He exists at all, is either uninterested or just disappointed in us. Fr. John Riccardo, Catholic priest, author, and founder of the ACTS XXIX apostolate, has spent nearly thirty years repeating the same simple and life-giving message: Don't give up. You matter to God! The Resistance is not another religious instruction manual or theological textbook. It’s a deeply personal re-introduction to the Gospel as the one story that makes sense of everything: who we are, why we exist, what’s gone wrong, and what God has done about it. Told in a voice that’s both pastoral and accessible, The Resistance brings readers into the heart of a God who’s often misunderstood, ignored, or rejected—and who longs to be known. Through storytelling, Scripture, and raw honesty, Fr. John invites readers to wrestle with the biggest questions we face: Why am I here? Where am I going? How do I get there? This book is about recovering a true vision of God and in doing so recovering who we are and what God is inviting us to do to help restore the human family and recreate the world He so loves. It’s about reshaping the way we see the world—not through the lens of modern culture but through the lens of Scripture. And it’s about unleashing hope in a world that’s starving for it.
