We lead tremendously busy lives, with 1,001 things to do. Even so, every saint and renowned spiritual director through the ages has said the same thing: If we desire to become saints, we must spend time daily in meditation. With this book (which sold out of its first printing), Fr. Bartunek has created an extensive, Christ-centered resource to serve as a daily meditation companion. It is a Bible study on the four Gospels, a survey of saints' writings, a guide to prayer, and a fresh introduction to Jesus rolled into one. The Better Part enables us to read, meditate, absorb and apply the Gospels to our lives, and it serves as a catalyst to personalize times of prayer, enabling us to follow the Holy Spirit's lead into holiness. Sections for each Gospel on Christ as Lord, Christ as Teacher, Christ as Friend, and Christ in my Life.
Father John Bartunek, LC, author of the best-selling book Inside the Passion, has created a dynamic, Christ-centered resource for personal prayer. Beginning with a detailed and practical guide to Christian meditation, there are over 300 units - each consisting of a passage from the Gospels and a four-part commentary based on common themes. All four Gospels are contained and commented on in their entirety. Small enough to be portable, The Better Part is an elegant, sturdy softcover with French folds and a ribbon marker. Truly a book for a lifetime of spiritual enrichment and growth
