Summary

How can we find strength in stressful times? How can we lead fuller, more effective lives?

In thirty-three perceptive meditations, Herbert O'Driscoll probes these compelling questions. With gifted insight, he considers the serious challenges of being human, searches key events in the life of Jesus, and discovers new vitality and guidance for our living.

Jesus knew the fear of pain, the stress of work, the grace of love. He provided spiritual hope and the ethical model for Western civilization. Herbert O'Driscoll shows us how the healing wisdom and power of Jesus' life can transform our own lives today.
