Surrounded by Love - by Murray Bodo (Paperback)

Surrounded by Love: Seven Teachings from Saint Francis is a beautiful meditation on the spiritual wisdom of St.

Francis of Assisi, offering practical guidance for living a joyful and loving life in today's fractious world.

Drawing on the Poverello's life experiences and teachings, this book illuminates seven key lessons that can transform our lives: the wonder of the incarnation, the paradox of evangelical poverty, living the Gospel, repairing God's house, making peace, the recognition that we are one with all of creation, and the joy of humble service to God.

Through these teachings, St.

Francis invites us on a journey from love through love into love, following in the footsteps of Jesus, who is the mystery of the fullness of God among us.

With hope as the result of union with God, this book offers a way for anyone to learn to practice these teachings in their own life and find joy, peace, and fulfillment.
