Praying with Pope John XXIII

This is a profoundly spiritual book that combines anecdotes about the life of Pope John XXiii with his vison for the church and his hopes for the Second Vatican Council. Written in a simple and at times poetic style the book is a real page turner and a good resource for prayer and meditation. Huebsch has caputured the essence of the Pope and the faith challenges that any reader can cull from reflecting on his life and his practice of spirituality. The book includes exercizes for perosnal prayer and meditation.
