| Description: |
The author utilises written sources from Francis of Assisi and his contemporaries. He invites readers into a meditation on the life of St. Francis, with a focus on his prayer and eucharistic devotion. The book moves readers beyond common sentimental approaches to Francis and toward a richer appreciation of the saint who received the stigmata.
"A treasure trove of reflections, this book offers a unique vantage point on the enduring Gospel legacy of Francis. Each page's penetrating insights invite readers to live the spirit that impelled Francis of Assisi."
-Regis J. Armstrong, OFM Cap, emeritus professor of theology and religious studies, The Catholic University of America
"This is a joyful, hopeful book with Christ at its very center, a Christ who, in loving us, transforms each one of us. In reading this book, my reading became a prayer."
-Murray Bodo, OFM, author of Francis: The Journey and the Dream |
