These selections give you a comprehensive overview of Newman's profound and influential teachings on daily life as a Christian, including his wisdom on the Church, God's Providence, the Mass, the intercession of Mary, prayer, temptation and sin, the Christian character, happiness, and much more. Full of Newman's elegant prose and piercing Christian insight, this volume is not only a winning introduction to Newman: it's also a remarkable resource for daily spiritual reading. |
