Paperback Book on the Spiritual Journey

"The Spiritual Journey, the Setting for Christian Hope" is a milestone not only in Spiritual Theology, but more broadly for Christianity. Comprehending the full picture of the Spiritual Journey is essential for each Christian who receives Jesus’ call to follow Him. Having a clearer vision of Jesus as our Way in our call to holiness, allows us to embark with confidence in Jesus-the-Way and daily renew our act of Hope.

The author shares the fruit of his long research in Spiritual Theology, doing so with clarity, in accessible language, based on Jesus’ life and journey. A new understanding of the Gospel emerges, both convincing and captivating. The Journey of following Jesus can then start.

No Christian who prays or who loves Jesus and longs for the Holy Spirit can ignore this teaching.

This new edition has been revised and augmented. It has a new second part added to it.

Book on Lectio Divina available in Hardcopy

Finally the full book (200 pages) on Lectio Divina is available on Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk and the other Amazon websites, as a hardcopy. It contains the previous three books published as ebooks. It has five parts:

Part one is new: the Word became words.

Part two corresponds to the first book ("Lectio Divina I, The Method").

Part three and four correspond to the second book ("Lectio Divina II, Mary and the Spirit").

Part five, the much loved part five, corresponds to the third book ("Lectio Divina III, Lectio in daily life").

This is a very important book. The core of it is Part II because it explains the Method. It has the updated version of the steps of Lectio Divina, with the 15 steps explained.
