Hour Is Now, The: Praying with the Gospel of John

In this book, Richard Chilson uses John as a guide to Christian life and growth. He treats the entire gospel as an exploration of the Christian spiritual path. He covers the outlines of that path, the work of dying to self, the dangers of judgment, the spiritual significance of healing, the mystery of the Eucharist, and the spiritual meaning of love and service in marriage and priesthood.

The author points out similarities between lessons learned from the gospel and Twelve-Step programs. Because the author wishes to consider John as a literary work, the King James Version is used. This engaging book, full of fresh insights, gives guidance for the spiritual journey, especially a sacramental journey.

Highlights:
New insights from an experienced spiritual director.
Useful for those working the Twelve Steps.
The beauty of the King James Version language is highlighted.
Resource for Lenten reading and meditation.
