Description
Drawing Near to Jesus. 3. Easter Time
Book Summary
This volume, the third in the series, offers the reader a spiritual and meditative journey for each day of the Easter season. Through reflections inspired by the Gospel, the author guides the believer in a personal dialogue with Christ, providing concrete resolutions, sincere affections, and prayers that help internalize the message of the Resurrection. A practical tool for daily prayer and growth in the Christian life during the weeks of Easter.
What is it about?
The book is structured as a devotional that accompanies the reader day by day throughout the liturgical season of Easter. Each meditation begins with a Gospel passage of the day, which the author breaks down and applies to daily life. Based on the reading of the Gospel, suggestions for resolutions (small goals for personal or spiritual improvement), affections (inner feelings and attitudes to cultivate), and prayers (petitions to raise to God) are offered. The goal is for the reader not only to listen to the Word, but to live it, establishing an intimate and transformative dialogue with the risen Jesus Christ.
