Saint John of the Cross Audio CD

Title: Saint John of the CrossAuthors: Bob and Penny LordPublisher: Journeys of FaithFormat: Audio CD Disc  St. John of the CrossSaint, Spaniard and Poet Saint John of the Cross is best known for his poem, The Dark Night of the Soul. Not a poem of tragedy and storms, St. John and all his poems spoke of love and joy, that happiness that only the Father can provide! The Dark Night of the Soul tells of lover encountering Lover, only to become one in heavenly communion. Like with Saint Teresa, his only true desire was to achieve that complete union when he and the Lord would be one. As we turn the pages of Saint John of the Cross’ story, you will discover a powerful woman in this powerful man’s life. Like with Saint Francis of Assisi, whose Sister Moon was Saint Clare, the story of Saint John cannot be told without Saint Teresa of Avila. God was to use her to change the course of his life. He loved her with a powerful celibate love, the gift we will all bring to the Father as we face Him
