Love it!
The book itself is very well made and although I'm only in the first week of the meditations, I am really loving it!!! It is both insightful and inspiring. I feel that it is one of those meditations that you can do year after year and glean something new each time. It's definitely a keeper and would make a wonderful gift.

The Road to cavalry
St Liguori provides deeply insightful reflections to help better understand and meditate on the passion of Christ who loves us so very much that He willingly suffered and died for us to prove His “ excessive love”. We learn more about the sacred heart of God and the our suffering unites us closer to Jesus.

Excellent Lenten Devotional
I’ve been enjoying this book for morning devotions during Lent. I’ve read it aloud to my older children at the breakfast table and it has inspired several deep conversations. I recommend it highly. I also enjoyed the Advent devotional book as well.
