"Don't read good books—read the best books," is what a nun taught Fr. Rawley Myers as a youth. Thus, he has gathered together in this very unique volume a reading for each day of the year from some of the greatest Catholic books and writers in Church history, many in this century. Myers taps into the rich treasury of outstanding Catholic literature, often neglected in today's busy world, and he provides a wonderful selection of thoughts and meditations that are both intellectually stimulating and spiritually rewarding.
Drawing on the writings of thirty-four famous Catholic authors, this book ranges from the thoughts of Doctors of the Church like Saint Augustine, Saint Teresa of Avila and Saint Thomas Aquinas, to classic authors like Saint Francis de Sales, Thomas à Kempis, and Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, to popular 20th century spiritual guides like Bishop Fulton Sheen, Thomas Merton and Romano Guardini and, finally, the writings of a group of famous modern converts like G. K. Chesterton, Hilaire Belloc, Ronald Knox and John Henry Newman. They enlighten our minds, inflame our hearts and strengthen our souls with selections that are easily digestible and whet the appetite for more of the impressive heritage of Catholic theological and philosophical reflection.
"Fr.
Myers has done American Catholics a great service in making available to them
this anthology of some of the finest thinkers in the history of the Church.
The format is ideal for personal reading and meditation, group reflection, or
even as a way of beginning a day in a Catholic high school or college."
— Fr. Peter Stravinskas, Editor, The Catholic Answer
"Fr.
Myers has put together a book of selections from the best authors there are.
Reflecting the dignity of the ancient Faith, this work challenges the mind again
and again, and it speaks 'the spirit of Catholicism."'
— Thomas Howard, Author, Chance or the Dance
