Paperback. Condizione: Good. This absorbing account provides you with an intimate look at the sufferings of our Lord through the minds and hearts of those closest to Him. You'll see Jesus through the eyes of His apostles, of those who condemned Him, of His executioners, and of those He met along the way of the Cross. Drawing from historical research, culture, and his own profound spiritual insights, Archbishop Alban Goodier, S.J., masterfully intersperses scriptural accounts and narration to bring the Passion of Jesus fully to life. You will be moved by subtle observations, emotions, and actions swirling around Jesus as He endures His most terrible and triumphant moments. You will come to understand Judas Iscariot's thoughts and motives in betraying Jesus, St. John's personal intuitions about the agony of Jesus' heart, St. Peter's impetuousness, and Jesus' unconditional love. As he guides you through this introspective contemplation of the Gospels, Archbishop Goodier reveals Jesus' thoughts, feelings, and actions and explains the sufferings Jesus felt in His soul. Most significantly, you will see who Jesus is for you and who He longs for you to be both for Him and for others. We need "active compassion," explains Archbishop Goodier, to unite our sufferings to those of Jesus and to relate to the anguish of His Heart. Reflecting upon the agony of Jesus in the Garden, the travesty of His condemnation, and the diabolical tortures that He endured, you will see as never before the immense sufferings that only the God-Man could abide. Through the eyes of the saints-the great lovers of God-you will truly begin to see Jesus, the pain He bore, and why He suffered. Our Lord's words challenge and comfort contemporary believers as much as they did those who first followed in the footsteps of Christ and His apostles. Once you enter into Archbishop Goodier's meditations, your understanding of the humility, mercy, and love of Christ will deepen, and you will never experience His Passion in the same way again.

Paperback. Condizione: Fair. Christ came not to call saints but to make them often out of weak, stupid, and sinful men. That's why the saints are not only models of holiness for us to imitate; they're reminders that God's grace can outshine every human flaw. As Alban Goodier's classic Saints for Sinners shows us, even the greatest saints had to battle the same stubborn vices, temptations of the flesh, and bouts of spiritual dryness that afflict you and me today. In these pages, with a style that perfectly blends hagiographical detail, spiritual meditation, and a skilled storyteller's touch, Archbishop Goodier brings us the tales of: -The mercenary fighting man and itinerant gambler who left behind his rough soldier's habits and founded a religious order to care for the sick -The backward, sickly teenager, disowned by his family and dogged by the Inquisition, who became a miraculous healer and paragon of humble simplicity -The willful Tuscan beauty with a bad reputation who forsook vanity and lust to answer God's call to live in poverty and penitence -The brilliant, brooding Spanish nobleman who gave up everything to be a missionary only to see most of his efforts fail -The royal chaplain and daring Counter-Reformer who escaped the gallows but had to endure a lifelong interior martyrdom of doubt and discouragement -The hedonistic heretic and womanizer who traded worldly pleasure for divine happiness, and became one of the Church's greatest theologians -And other inspiring tales of imperfect souls made perfect in infirmity Read these stories and find in them delight and encouragement, as well as hope. You'll come to see that there is no one so sinful, weak, or desolate that God has not already raised another like him to the heights of glory.…
