Zusatztext "Radcliffe packs each paragraph with so much information that you have to read the book slowly to take everything in. But this is not a complex tome, nor is it a trivial self-help book on personal spirituality. Radcliffe uses popular culture and spiritual writings to try to reconnect us with God through the Eucharist and through the community of believers. This is why we go to church." --US Catholic Informationen zum Autor Cardinal Timothy Radcliffe is a former Master of the Dominican Order.

From the Our Father until we are sent on our way, especially in receiving communion, we are formed as people who are capable of love.
