Why I wrote this Lenten Devotional

When I was in my twenties I encountered another woman, also in her twenties who was dying of cancer. Over the course of a summer she taught me the lesson of the power of the cross...that no matter what life deals us there is a way for those who believe in Christ to approach every event in a way that differs from the rest of humanity. We are not crushed by adversity, in fact we learn not to even judge anything as adversity so has the cross changed the way we look at our lives.

This book is filled with the ways in which the power of the cross can be experienced in our daily lives no matter what happens--illustrated by the stories of people that I have known who have experienced the power of Christ's cross firsthand. It is arranged especially for the season of Lent and will match the readings found in the Catholic lectionary for that season.

Since the book has been available it has been used in a parish group study. A leader of a group that used it wrote me to say:

"We just finished your bible study: The Power of the Cross' - ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!!!!!!!. It was soooo Catholic and thank you for speaking the truth. We have a lot of Catholics out there (including myself) who missed these lessons over the last 20 years. We have made Catholicism what we wanted it to be. Not how is really is. I believe it opened the eyes of a lot of the ladies in the group."

I hope others will find this book an aid to enriching their spiritual lives.
