Product Information
No other pope of this century has aroused so much interest and universal affection throughout the world as has Pope John XXIII. Journal of a Soul is an inspiring reading experience that records this pope's thoughts and traces his spiritual development from adolescence to the seminary to a career as a priest, a European papal diplomat, Patriarch of Venice, and finally Pope John XXIII. This Image Books edition features a biographical portrait of Pope John by his personal secretary, Monsignor Loris Capovilla. It also includes several of his most moving prayers, sixty brief thoughts and aphorisms, his Rules for the Ascetic Life, many of his letters, even his last will and testament. Christians everywhere will welcome the reissue of one of the most original, interesting, and inspiring revelations of intimate personal experiences ever written, which ranks well with the classic spiritual autobiographies (Critic). Journal of a Soul, the first ever such work from a Roman pontiff, opens new windows onto the soul of the man himself.Product Identifiers
