Exploring the Catholic Classics: How Spiritual Reading Can Help You Grow in Wisdom

In Exploring the Catholic Classics, you will: learn about seven inspiring historical and modern works of Catholic literature; read selected passages from the writings of St. Thérèse of Lisieux, Pope St. John Paul II; St. Francis de Sales, Thomas á Kempis, and more; study these spiritual works in light of the Scriptures; reflect on significant spiritual themes and chronicle your own thoughts and experiences; apply the wisdom of these spiritual writers to your own life. The Catholic classics are full of wisdom, advice, and inspiration to enrich the lives of modern women, and Exploring the Catholic Classics is a great way to access that wisdom and apply it to your life. Tiffany Walsh introduces readers to carefully selected excerpts from each spiritual classic and offers her own insights before inviting you to respond to reflection prompts. You can record your responses right in the journal, then bring those thoughts to your small faith-sharing group for further discussion. And as with all the Stay Connected journals, guided prayers and space to journal your own prayer helps you forge a deeper, living connection with Jesus. Stay Connected Journals for Catholic Women help you deepen your connection with Christ through inspiring stories, reflections, Scripture study, and prompts for prayer and journaling. Each journal explores a different path to spiritual growth in seven short, easy-to-complete chapters-perfect for individuals or small faith-sharing groups!
