Publisher's summary
Lucia's sufferings began when her younger brother, a seminarian, died in 1902. Her mother died of cancer three years later. Ten years after that, her other brother was killed in World War I. She also suffered physically. In 1905, at sixteen, she nearly died. During this period, she “felt ardor in wanting to suffer for the love of God,” and she prayed to know God’s will. Soon after, she received her vocation: Christ spoke to her, “From this moment on, offer yourself a victim for reparations. Do you accept?” From that day on, Lucia offered her sufferings as a victim soul, in particular for priests and religious.
Lucia met Padre Pio, two years her elder, for the first time in July 1916. She wrote, “All the doubts that reigned in my spirit were overcome by him.” She also wrote that she would go “up to the convent full of fears and anxieties, but after having conferred with the Father, I felt my spirit renewed!” To her, Padre Pio was like “healing medicine” and an “angel of a priest who brought health and refreshment to our bitter trials.”
In February 1934, Lucia became seriously ill. Sensing the end was near, she told her sister-in-law to “tell [Padre Pio] that I offered myself as a victim in the cave of St. Michael for his liberation. My life is not worth as much as his; he can do more good for souls than me.” On February 16, at the age of 44, Lucia Fiorentino died after a brief, unnamed illness. During that period, Padre Pio was still forbidden from appearing in public, hearing confessions, and celebrating Mass in public. It appears that Lucia’s self-sacrifice was heard by God. Less than three months later, Padre Pio was given back his full freedom to continue his apostolate.
Under the obedience of her spiritual directors, she wrote a diary. In it, she narrates the arrival of Padre Pio in her village and follows him throughout the dramatic events that unfolded in the early years. Her thoughts and descriptions are precious in gaining insight into this exceptional priest and friar and his method of spiritual direction. Moreover, she reveals the journey of her soul as Christ spoke directly to her with powerful messages. Yet, Christ told her that some of the messages were addressed not just to her but to everyone who “desires to live the perfect spiritual life."
This extraordinary diary—translated for the first time ever in English—reveals an extraordinary soul beautifully devoted to Padre Pio. It will be of immense benefit to all those seeking comfort amid their suffering and striving to grow in the Christian life. (A portion of the proceeds of sales of this book are donated to the Capuchin Province of Foggia and Padre Pio.)

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Turning the other cheek does not mean standing by while the enemies of God dismantle Christian civilization and brainwash our children. Decrying the cowardice that masquerades as meekness, Eric Metaxas summons the Church to battle. An attenuated and unbiblical “faith” based on what Bonhoeffer called “cheap grace” has sapped the spiritual vitality of millions of Americans. Paying lip service to an insipid “evangelism,” they shrink from combating the evils of our time. Metaxas refutes the pernicious lie that fighting evil politicizes Christianity.

The Qur'an, believed by Muslims to be the word of God, was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad 1,400 years ago. It is the supreme authority in Islam and the living source of all Islamic teaching; it is a sacred text and a book of guidance that sets out the creed, rituals, ethics, and laws of the Islamic religion. It has been one of the most influential books in the history of literature. Recognized as the greatest literary masterpiece in Arabic, it has nevertheless remained difficult to understand in its English translations.

The book of Enoch was thought to be lost for over 2,000 years until, in 1773, a traveller brought three copies back from Ethiopia. Whether or not this ancient book was actually authored by Enoch, the father of Methuselah and great-grandfather of Noah, is an ongoing debate among historians and theologians. But all recognise the book of Enoch as one of the most important apocalyptic works outside of the Bible.

Thich Nhat Hanh acknowledges that because suffering can feel so bad, we try to run away from it or cover it up by consuming. We find something to eat or turn on the television. But unless we’re able to face our suffering, we can’t be present and available to life, and happiness will continue to elude us.
