This book takes us on a quest for the truth and meaning which are
bound up with God and His creation of us and our world. We go on a
pilgrimage through the Testaments, Old and New, the Gospels and
Epistles, and the Holy stories so familiar to us. Each Biblical
quotation and reference is taken from the seasons of the year-long
life of the Church: Advent, Christmas, Lent and Ordinary Time
ending with the Feast of Christ the King. The author assists the
reader by including abstract thoughts, praise, poetry and jottings
which give time for reflection and underline the fact that God is
present in everything. We thus become acquainted with God, Jesus,
Mary and the apostles and disciples. However, this acquaintance is
only the beginning of the journey as the author emphasises. The
next stage is to look for Him in your daily life and to listen out
for His voice in the quietness. For those who are searching for
Christian truth or for reaffirmation of this truth already
accepted, then here is a message of hope and encouragement. James
Byrne was born in Baltinglass, Co. Wicklow, Ireland in 1931. A
cradle Catholic, he pursued and continues to pursue the
conventional path of religious worship, but, he began to realise
that being a Catholic was not in itself a completion without the
necessary ingredient of being a true Christian, at the same time.
Believing has to be linked to really knowing Jesus and finding Him
within one's self. To living out all that He is, and teaches us to
be. To finding within ourselves that love for each other that led
Him to die for us. Reading Philosophy at University reinforced his
need to search, and to question, which led to his discovering an
absolute truth, and faith in his own Catholicism. It is this
renewed relationship with Jesus that he wishes to share with his
readers.
