Notă biografică

James Bishop was raised Catholic, but even in adolescence studied other religious beliefs, concentrating on meditation. While battling alcoholism and obsessive-compulsive disorder in prison, he was reintroduced to meditation through the World Community for Christian Meditation. He is now a free man, both physically and spiritually.

Recenzii

Featured in the new titles just published section in the Church Times.
I would commend James Bishop's book to every Companion CR and any who seek to deepen their Christian commitment through the discipline of the daily office and to what Benedict refers to as"the conversion of life".
