John Paul II. A Thought for Each Day

Among the shelves of countless Italian bookstores, including those in motorway service areas and large shopping centers, it is possible to find books about Saint John Paul II. This book offers a truly unique opportunity to retrace the path marked out by Saint John Paul II, presenting each day the most significant moments of his entire life. In fact, for every day of the year, the book contains an episode from his life, including events that took place before his pontificate, followed by a “thought” taken from the Pope’s encyclicals, prayers, homilies, Angelus addresses, and various writings. From one thought to the next, a genuine exploration unfolds of his human experience - of the joy and pain, thoughts and passions, friendship and love, hope and prayer that characterized him. The more one delves into the life and thought of the Saint, the stronger the feeling becomes that one is exploring a diamond mine: each page unveils a new gem!
