A excellent book for someone who wishes to enhance one prayer life. It is also provides a good understanding on how to approach prayer and serves to correct a great deal of misconception about the subject matter. Very good tool for one that is struggling with prayer life. One of the best books I've read cos its practical and must say it has enhanced my relationship with God.

I love this book. Father John Catoir writes in a simple easy to understand way which is perfect for someone who wants to solidify his knowledge and understanding of entering into a proper and healthy spiritual life and relationship with God. He is the right kind of Roman Catholic Priest, who engenders the kind of attitude that is sorely missing in many of our clergy. He's down to earth and real, perhaps some day he'll be canonized a Saint for the great work he does in Patterson,NJ with the poor and for writing books that effectively communicate the meaning of God in our lives. God bless him!

This is an excellent, pastoral and sensitive work that has given much hope to people searching for a solution to their individual marriage cases. Father Catoir is known for his sensitivity and gentleness and it is very evident in this book. Yet, it is also done in a professional, canonical and informed manner.

I have given this book to many people in my parish who are in situations in which they were turned down by the local Tribunal and felt that since they have remarried, their life in the Church was "over."

This book has brought them much hope, relief and guidance.

I highly recommend this to any Catholic who works with people who are divorced and either have or have not approached the Tribunal with their cases.

As a former advocate procurator for a Tribunal, I longed for a concise pastoral guide for the divorced and remarried Catholic, particularly with regards to the reception of the Eucharist. This is that book. Clearly and simply written, it gives a pastoral approach to the problem of reception of the Eucharist by the remarried Catholic. Following the advice will not be easy, particularly for those who feel their individual conscience must bow to external forums. Yet it relies upon Canon Law and the 1994-97 Catholic Catechism to bring hope and joy to the remarried. Unlike the vicious diatribes of Vasoli and Kennedy who seek to wreck demonical vengance upon their nullity seeking spouses, this guide uses the examples of the Samaritan woman and the Chicago "marriage in possession" practices to guide the "internal forum" solution. Thus, in good conscience, a divorced and remarried Catholic can receive Communion, be a Lector and Eucharistic Minister, even when the Tribunal has said that the evidence for the "external forum" is insufficient. A must read for remarried Catholics, their pastors, and their bishops. AMDG

God Delights in You is a wonderful book. Written simply yet full of powerful insights in how God treasures and delights in us. It contains much input from many 'ordinary' people on how they have been able to reflect on how their openess to God even in the midst of their imperfect humaness pleases Him greatly. Many books have described how God is displeased with our shortcomings. Few have focused so positively and thoroughly on how often He delights in us, His creation, His beloved. Just as even a messy, fussy baby delights his parents, so much more so do we delight our Heavenly Parent. What an uplift to read for those of us suffering from occasional low self esteem.
