About this book

St. Francis and the Cross: Reflections on Suffering, Weakness, and Joy by Martini, Carlo Maria. paperback edition. ISBN: 9781569553459.

St. Francis of Assisi devoted himself to Christ Crucified, and his love for the Savior marked everything he did, said, and wrote. Here two renowned spiritual writers and teachers reflect on Francis words about the Cross, unfolding its mystery and drawing us into the flood of graces that flow from it. Fr. Raniero Cantalamessa meditates on Francis Canticle of Creation and his Testament, calling us to allow the beauty of creation to draw us to Christ and open us to love. Cardinal Carlo Maria Martini considers how the folly of the cross brings us to wisdom and to perfect joy.
