Praise for "Winning the Battle Against Sin":
“In our culture, the temptations to stray into dangerous territory are everywhere. What a blessing to have this important guide from Fr. Mitch, a Scripture scholar and a great teacher of the faith. 'Winning the Battle Against Sin' is a definite must for every family’s spiritual war chest.”
—Teresa Tomeo, Catholic author and syndicated talk show host
“'Winning the Battle Against Sin' is a timely book that exposes the bondage that sin causes and then outlines what we need to do to be liberated from its chains. The ‘takeaways’ and discussion questions at the end of each chapter make this book eminently suitable for either individual or group study. I recommend it to every catechist and to every Christian.”
—Dr. Marcellino D’Ambrosio, director of the Crossroads Initiative
