In the frenetic pace of our daily lives, it is easy to forget why we were created. Here, the revered twentieth-century theologian Fr. R?ginald Garrigou-Lagrange, O.P., offers not a treatise on theology but an invitation for souls to contemplate the mystery of Christ and cultivate their interior lives -- the most important activity of all.

Fr. Garrigou-Lagrange probes the meaning of thirty-two themes pertaining to Our Lord and how each demonstrates His love for us. In an accessible way, Fr. Garrigou-Lagrange guides us in learning about the Person of Christ through the lens of St. Thomas Aquinas. Each chapter is a masterpiece that can stand alone as its own beautiful, self-contained booklet.

Part 1 features thirteen meditations on "The Mystery of the Incarnation and the Personality of the Savior," relating how Jesus is the Messiah and God. Part 2 offers nineteen reflections on "Our Savior's Love for Us and the Mystery of Redemption," providing an intimate look at the interior life of Christ and how it is a model for you. In addition, you will discover:

• Two things that block the light and grace of God in your life
• How to break free from the bonds of fatality, worry, chance, and misguided passions
• How redemption reveals our Savior's love for you in His Sacred Person -- and who you are
• What St. Thomas Aquinas's treatise on the Incarnation reveals about Christ's interior life
• The three births of the Word Made Flesh and how they relate to you

As Fr. Garrigou-Lagrange breaks open the Scriptures and reveals the basis for the sacrifice of the Mass and belief in the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist, your reasons to believe in the divinity of Christ will deepen. Fr. Garrigou-Lagrange's counsels on how to develop your interior life through spiritual and practical methods will help you enter into closer friendship with our Lord and experience the love of His Sacred Heart more profoundly.

A reviewer wrote: "This book changed my entire theological perspective on the person of Jesus Christ and my personal relationship with Him. Fr. Garrigou-Lagrange is truly a spiritual master." Another enthused: "A wonderful, theologically solid read, faithful to the Church's doctrine; a work that inspires further contemplation and adoration of God for His miraculous work of salvation. Your heart will be bursting with prayers of profound thanksgiving, penance, and worship as you read this book."
