While recovering from an horrific traffic accident that doctors thought he would not survive, the much-loved priest, psychologist and author Fr Benedict Groeschel used his many months of convalescence to pick famous classic prayers to Jesus from every century - mainly written by Catholics, but also some by Orthodox and Protestant believers. Fr Groeschel adds his own inspiring commentary for each. Beautifully illustrated with classic art for each century's prayer, this first book by the renowned author since his brush with death will be an inspiration to all readers. A timeless book of profound prayers, wonderful spiritual insights and beautiful art that is an ideal gift book for Christmas. Fr Benedict Groeschel is a popular author, well known for his appearances on EWTN, and for his cofoundation of the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal, an order devoted to living the Franciscan vocation to the full in modern deprived urban areas.
