""That They May Have Life"" (John 10: 10): 35 Meditations

This collection of meditations is a rich anthology of writings very much in the spirit and vein of the documents of the Second Vatican Council, and of the ideas represented by the discourses of Popes St. John Paul II and Benedict XVI. The variety of essays crystallizes the thoughts of a Cistercian priest and monk through sixty years of his pastoral service. The assortment of articles combines reflections on a variety of liturgical feasts and different aspects of spiritual life like faith, humility, prayer, judging others, and death. Running throughout is the mystery of sharing in the divine life by Christians, best expressed by the Johannine term, life or eternal life. The overarching tone of this slender volume is optimistic, its pages brimming with a spirit of hope and serenity.
