Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: I have written [this book] for men who want to understand themselves better, who sense that there is more to being a man, and that this has fascinating dimensions. from the Preface
But there was nothing left for Bishop Guido to say when he heard the response Francis gave him: If we had possessions, there would be strife and quarreling, and we would need weapons to guard them. Poverty and peace were one component in Francis eyes. from 'Otherwise, We Need Weapons'
Markus Hofer has accomplished the remarkable feat of helping us to see Saint Francis, not as the birdbath saint, not as Brother Happy, but as a man. He has shown us the characteristics of Francis and the events of his life that are particularly of benefit to men. He has imagined how Francis might comment upon these events himself. He has done all this in an effort to help men learn what can be particularly illuminating for them in Francis story.
With a foreword by Richard Rohr, O.F.M., author of The Wild Man s Journey: Reflections on Male Spirituality (St. Anthony Messenger Press)
