Picture yourself having the opportunity to spend some one-on-one time with Pope Benedict XVI, one of the most beloved Catholic intellectuals and spiritual authors of the twentieth century. Hundreds of brief quotes and sayings from Benedict's writings, talks, and homilies are collected here and grouped according to the Christian virtues they promote, the mysteries of the Rosary, the Church, the Mass, the pope, Sacred Scripture, the priesthood, and the saints. When we use these spiritual treasures in prayer and reflection, we can sense the author's profound faith in Jesus Christ, his devotion to the Catholic faith, and his genuine affection for the individuals God has put in our lives.
The clarity and accuracy of Pope Benedict's writings provide a true direction for anyone wishing to develop their own connection with Our Lord, and convey an aura of Christian sincerity that stems from his deep and lasting love with Our Lord. It will always be difficult to make room in our busy schedules to grow in our relationship with Christ, but with this compilation of Benedict's wise counsel, we will be better prepared to take on this task.
