Book The Life of St  Francis of Assisi

Download or read book The Life of St Francis of Assisi written by St. Bonaventure and published by TAN Books. This book was released on 2010-04 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Francis, go and build up My house, which thou seest, is falling into ruin." To fulfill this command of Our Lord, St Francis of Assisi (1181-1226) began by restoring physical churches and continued by building up the spiritual Church in souls. Francis' humility, purity, and true joy inspired many to conversion and a deeper faith. Never ordained a priest, St. Francis nonetheless was a preacher and a miracle-worker of the first order - curing, prophesying, casting out devils, turning water into wine, and raising people frmo the dead. The Life of St Francis of Assisi by St Bonaventure conveys a picture of the Saint that renders an indelible impression of a man totally transformed by God.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journey into God by St. Bonaventure, Itinerarium Mentis in Deum,Translated by Josef Raischl OFS & André Cirino OFMFinally, a translation of Bonaventure's most popular work that is conducive for personal prayer and for actually embarking on the journey into God! While remaining faithful to the original work, the translators allow the Seraphic Doctor's spirit to come alive for the modern reader in a way that has not been done before in the English-speaking world.Richard Martignetti OFM, STD Immaculate Conception Province, New York Josef Raischl and André Cirino's translation of the Journey into God is a gift. It puts St. Bonaventure's Itinerarium Mentis in Deum in the hands of lay people who might otherwise find the text complicated and difficult to comprehend. It reads like poetry, yet does not dilute the meaning; rather, it enhances it. This is a valuable tool for ongoing formation for Secular Franciscans everywhere.Toni Maconi OFS, Little Portion Secular Franciscan Fraternity, New York
