Description
Biographies of St. Francis will only take you to this point. It’s inconceivable to in point of fact take into account him without reading his writings. Sweeney has compiled all the ones that we are such a lot certain come from Francis himself, including his first Rule of life, the Rule he wrote for the Third Order, letters to friends, letters to folks in power, messages to all Franciscans, songs, praises, canticles, and his final spiritual Testament. An introduction and explanatory notes all over the book assist to place the writings into historical and theological context.
