Who was medieval Italy's Francis of Assisi? Millions know him as the saint who first received the stigmata of Christ, as a champion of the poor, and as a mystic who possessed a divine rapport with the natural world. But few know that Saint Francis also created an extraordinary system of spiritual practices to radiate joy inward to the soul and outward to the world.
On The Way of Saint Francis, Father Murray Bodo reveals the life of this celebrated saint and shares specific meditations, prayers, and teachings to cultivate the five great keys of Franciscan spirituality. Through them you will learn to open the door to the cell within—a sacred inner space available to us at any time and in any situation.
