In a little town in Italy, nearly eight hundred years ago, Francis
of Assisi renounced everything he owned to follow Christ with
passionate and single-minded abandon. Even today, centuries later,
this simple saint draws people around the world to Francis' story
of living in humility, love, and joy. Here in Following Francis,
Susan Pitchford tells her own story of the Franciscan life, as a
member of the Third Order, founded by Francis himself so that
people from all walks of life can follow the saint's ideal, without
leaving their homes or their occupations. Pitchford learned that
the Franciscan tradition isn't the exclusive possession of monks
cloistered in a monastery, but a spiritual path for ordinary people
living in the twenty-first century. Organized around the Rule of
St. Francis, this book - a wonderful resource for private devotion
or group study - shows readers what it means to live out the
Christian life with a Franciscan accent.
