Still Learning: Spiritual Sketches from a Professor's Life

Prof. Kiely is a deeply learned man whose faith has been a guiding source in his life. Even for the non-believer, his memoir is instructive and moving to read given his sensitivity and good humor.

A compelling account of a handful of events (at middle-age and beyond) coming into the life of an English professor, husband, son, father of four, mentor to hundreds of students and friend of hundreds more. Lessons learned: the power of faith and prayer, patience, the never-ending need for new friendships, the devotional wisdom of Christian meditation, and the blessings that come with putting down roots deeply into the soil of one family, one church and one university over the course of one life.
