Living God: Little Gem Series
I have been ordering the monthly specials as Tan writes them up. This little booklet “on Loving God” is a nice introduction to St. Bernard of Clairvaux. We have such a broad history of church fathers and saints that it is not possible to read thoroughly through these magnificent people in our history. Tan presents an essential part of St. Bernard’s relationship with God in this accessible booklet. Keep them coming, Tan!
