Christ Is Passing By

This collection of homilies is one of the first books I read by St. Josemaria Escriva. While remaining optimistic, the Saint penetrates the spiritual malaise that has overcome our Western society and calls us rekindle our enthusiasm for Jesus Christ. Yet the author is in no way condescending or preachy in his style. Rather, he is passionate. I recommend this book to anyone who has been overcome by the "spiritual blahs" and is looking for something solid to inspire them to greater Catholic action.

I have read this book twice, since it is so good that it deserved a second, more paused reading. Fr. Escriva is clear, direct puting new light into traditional Catholic teachings.Worth reading!!!!!

College life is busy, lively and it seems there's no time to think about God...all of Josemaria Escriva's books show you otherwise! I owe him a lot for writing this book and letting me see that God is at my reach, right here on campus and everywhere else I'll go after graduation! A must read for anyone who wants more to life, in fact, who wants to know what makes for a full life.

Maybe you think prayer is out of your way. I would recomend you to try this out. I'ts made for the women and men of the everyday life. Easy reading, rich with comparisons taken from the ordinary life. It will realy help to make prayer a part of your everyday life.
