Like a Spiritual Grandmother

For those days when nothing goes right or when everything goes right Mother Angelica is there to gently nudge you on your journey to Christ. This book makes you place yourself in the moment with God from the safety of your grandmother's knee making the spiritual lessons feel like coming home. I found myself shaking my head in amazement at how much Mother sees in the Scriptures and how blind I have been ... until now. This book has helped me view my human imperfections from a new point of view and has allowed me to see that this is exactly the same point of view the Saints had of their own failings and misgivings. Yes, the Apostles and other Saints really were human. And now I have a clearer understanding of the struggles they felt in their own spiritual journies even as they walked alongside Jesus. Thank you Mother Angelica and God Bless you!

This is a book that makes learning about scripture fun, brings a fresh point of few to scripture, and gives you valuable information about interpretation of scripture.

Just Love this Book

Thank-you Raymond for putting this priceless advice in book form. Mother's wisdom comes shining through her honest and easy to comprehend nuggets of faith. I would be so bold as to say that her clarity helps to further inspire the already 'inspired' word. Thank-you Raymond and Mother Angelica for the advice!

Mother Angelica has been a part of our family for years and we have been waiting for this new book to become available. I purchased it as a Birthday gift for my wife. She loves it! Thank you

Avid fan

This book is great...I will reread it again. It is written like she talks on her TV show, EWTN, the chapters are quick, easy reading, and makes me stop and meditate. Thoroughly enjoyable book
