Meet John XXIII by Patricia Treece
$13.99
Meet John XXIII: Joyful Pope and Father to All is a lively portrait that illustrates the warmth of his spirit while anchoring you in his solid, practical spirituality. Pope John XXIII admitted that he was incorrigibly optimistic: "I never met a pessimist who accomplished any good," he wrote in his diary. But Pope John was at heart nothing more than a man in love with God. He maintained his good humor in spite of decades of difficult assignments and considerable ill treatment, never complaining but instead choosing to seize the good and multiply it.

"Never mind thunderbolts from heaven!" he once said. "Charity, charity and simple, direct, loving truth!"
