Amazon.com description: Product Description:
The whole worldâs looking for happiness, but few seem to find it. And itâs no wonder, when weâre told to seek it in pleasure, conspicuous consumption and narcissismâpaths that end instead in self-destruction and despair.
Amid so much confusion, one voice pierces through the clamor and offers real, lasting advice for finding "perfect joy": St. Francis of Assisi. This thirteenth-century Italian friar sought contentment as a restless youth, but for years he searched in vain. When at last he uncovered the path to joy, it lay in a direction he had never dreamed of.
In Perfect Joy, youâll discover thirty reflections about living joyfully, based on St. Francisâ own life and writings. Each passage includes an anecdote from his life, a thought expressed in his own words, a confirming insight from another spiritual teacher, and questions to help you apply it all to your own life. The book encourages you to read and ponder one entry each day. At the end of the month, youâll have a greater understanding of how to find true joyâthe joy of living simply and with gratitude, of serving and coexisting with all of Godâs creatures; of being an instrument of His peace.
St. Francisâs radiant joy was so contagious that it turned his world upside down and won countless men and women to a new way of living. Join him in the search for true happinessâthe only kind that can lastâand your world, too, will never be the same.
