About the Author:
Archbishop Joseph Raya is a priest and bishop of the Melkite Catholic Church, and Former Archbishop of Akka, Haifa, Nazareth and all Galilee. He now lives in Combermere, Ontario, Canada with the Madonna House Apostolate founded by Catherine Doherty.
Review:
All that Archbishop Raya is, and all that he has done in his life, can be summed up as a hymn of praise to the Trinity. He has touched many lives because he is able to communicate through his own generous and loving heart, the immense, incomprehensible tenderness of God.
He has written many books, books that open doors to the mystery of God, not to explain or argue some fine points of theology but to bring the Gospel to us in a vibrant, joyous way. May all who read Archbishop Rayas words be blessed with a new awareness of Gods loving presence and with a fresh insight into the sacredness of life, into the awesomeness of human dignity and its divine worth. -- Catherine de Vinck, poet of Catholic America
