James Martin

Insights on the True Self from Thomas Merton And Other Saints
by James Martin


Review:
This is a great little book with a big message. I loved the honest exposure of Thomas Merton and Henri Nouwen's personal lives. Although labelled a spirituality/prayer aid, it reads more like a self help book. Religious or not, it forces one to explore the meaning of life and profound insight that "God is calling us to be who we truly are."
