A Radical Beginning: A Journey through the Prayer of St. Francis

Tim Gavin uses his own personal experiences to reinforce and offer insight into the meaning behind the Prayer of St Francis. This is a story that can be used to teach the value of love, selflessness, and forgiveness."This accessible little volume draws effectively on all the riches of Scripture. Fr. Tim connects the Prayer of St. Francis with its deep roots in God's Word and the lived experience of Christians through the ages. Add to this Fr. Tim's pastoral insight--hard won from years as a priest and chaplain--and you have an excellent meditation on one of the treasured prayers of our Christian heritage." - Bishop Daniel Gutierrez, Bishop of The Episcopal Diocese of Pennsylvania.
