The Vision of Saint John XXIII

By Randall S. Rosenberg and foreword by Cardinal Timothy Dolan

With the spirituality of John XXIII as the foundation, The Vision of St. John XXIII guides the reader into the movements of John XXIII's heart and mind as he made his journey from a simple and devotional home in northern Italy to become one of the most remarkable popes of the twentieth century. The book outlines his family life, his seminary education, his priesthood, his episcopacy, and his approach to his pontificate that heralded the Second Vatican Council, while highlighting his pastoral vision, his profound spirituality, and the impact of his humanity and humility on everyone. While the author covers the important events in John's life, he also includes many anecdotes and colorful happenings that tell so much about John's personality and character. Here is a concise and accessible book on one of our most popular popes published in time to coincide with his canonization. +
