The journey of a priest from childhood through ordination and his duties as a priest, chaplain, schooling and reasons why he left the priesthood. His vocation covers many positions: parish priest, missionary professor, university teacher and how each of these professions shaped his thinking and evolution.

This book is an attempt to give some insights into the spirituality of the New Testament and outlines from the same scripture on how to follow Christ. I try to cover who Christ is, his basic teachings, and how he understood his teaching as applied to the individual Christian: what does it mean to follow Christ in each of the salient points in the life of Christ? Who is Christ? What really did he mean? Why did he come? In what ways does he speak? What is the meaning of the pascal mystery and how does it apply to each one of us? What does Christ's death and resurrection mean for each one of us? What does it even mean to follow Christ? What of the difficulties in Christ? Is all this even possible in our own lives and how? What are the obstacles for us in following Christ such as anger, violence, hatred, love of enemies, the demands of the gospels, etc? These many topics are covered. This is a devotional book based squarely on the life of Christ in the New Testament which comes down to us from the primitive Christian community and embodied in these sacred writings. The book is comparatively short as are its chapters. But the teaching in each chapter is compact and insightful into the kind of spiritual life Christ calls his disciples to follow. As Saint Paul put it, "Be imitators of me as I am of Jesus Christ." This kind of spirituality I want to communicate and share with my readers. This imitation of Christ is what spiritual life is for the Christian and the summation of his life.

This book consists of some fourteen small chapters, each dealing with some aspect brought up in Mel Gibson's film The Passion of the Christ. The chapters are meant as subjects for in depth discussion about the implications of this movie which has caused much discussion around the world. The chapters deal with the suffering and death of Christ, Pontius Pilate, the woman caught in adultery, Judas, Satan, Jews and anti-Semitism, charity and forgiveness and a note on the resurrection along with other more minor subjects. Insights into these various areas will help the reader as well as the one who has seen the movie to understand the implications of the movie. It should be noted that this book can be read in its entirety without having seen the movie. It is a self contained book whose basic theme is the meaning of the suffering and death of Christ. In short, this book is a treatise on the pascal mystery of Jesus Christ.
