Bestselling Catholic author Mike Aquilina remembers that in his elementary school years, religion class was something to be taken seriously. However, shortly after his Confirmation, changes took place in the way the faith was taught, and it began to seem frivolous and silly to him, so he lost interest in religion altogether. It was a few years later, while studying history and literature in college, that he rediscovered St. Thomas Aquinas, and all the Catholic formation from his grade school years came back to him.
