Overview"This treasury of selected passages from the writings and addresses of perhaps the most impressive leader of the Catholic Church the world has ever known offers, as its editor suggests, ""a harvest from the mind and heart of Pope Wojtyla."" And so here is a chance for the modern reader, engaged in various daily tasks, to spend a few moments with the Pope each day of the liturgical year, contemplating his reflections on the mystery and the example of Christ; and on the church, man, the family, the lives of the saints, the meaning of holidays, and the place of faith in daily life.His personal concerns as expressed in these passages include such topics as ""Sharing with Others,"" ""To Be in Peace,"" ""Consumer Society,"" ""Family Prayer,"" and ""The Great Divine Trial,"" about the meaning of his near-assassination. Through these pages of calm reflection each day of the year, all will find a moment of peaceful repose from the occupations of life."
