Thanks so much.. I’ve been looking for a starting point to do a little reading about the dear Padre. The book was recommended by another freeper (apologies for not recalling which one) and is excellent! The author, a Lutheran minister, has been a guest on Fr. Benedict Groeschel's Suday Night Live program. Two weeks ago, the topic was Divine Mercy. A caller strongly encouraged all viewers, regardless of their religious affiliation to read the above book, along with St. Faustina's Diary.

FWIW, I own a copy and have read it and highly recommend it.
He was a very practical, plain-spoken saint!
And if anything will keep me from being one of those awful Church Ladies, it's the stories in this book of all he had to endure from HIS local Church Ladies . . . !

So many books, so little time.
I’m working on St. Therese right now.
