N2  - Most books dealing with the social teachings of the Catholic Church simply relate those teachings and comment on them.  You Did It for Me breaks the mold and shows that when you live the social gospel you live the spiritual life.  Author Kevin McKenna explains that his "underlying reason for writing this book is my belief that spirituality and social concern go hand in hand and that Jesus is our model.  He spent much time in prayer, and then went forth in action".  This model of prayer and action also helps dispel the commonly held understanding that only by praying and escaping from the world can we live a spiritual life.  McKenna explores numerous aspects of the Church's social teaching–including care of creation, human life and dignity, call to community, and reflection, how you too can grow spiritually in the midst of the world.
