A Padre Pio Profile

Another "Father Brown" pursuing the mysteries and recipients of Padre Pio miracles and cures. These interviews and firsthand accounts will stun you into a certainty and love of Padre Pio's endlessly mysterious ways. Especially interesting is the interview with Father Joseph Pius Martin, the American who, as a traveling young Bill Martin, made a casual visit to see Padre Pio, was drawn back there a second time and was asked by Padre Pio to stay...He became a popular priest for the English-speaking pilgrims, and stayed the rest of his life.

It is amazing that a saint like Him lived in this day and age.Secondly, I enjoyed the format of the book. It was easy to read because it was broken up into short stories/interviews. It was easy to pick up and read a few pages without feeling lost or confused.

This book was inspiring and helped me to gain more hope and energy in my efforts to live a pure, God-centered life. This book is definitely interesting and inspiring and very worthwhile. If you believe in God, it will help to renew and invigorate your faith. If you just enjoy reading about people, it will help you to learn more about one of the 20th century's most dynamic personalities.
