Go beneath the surface!
21 May 2004
Format:Paperback
[The cover of my particular edition has been updated - does not look like image provided by Amazon] It's not hard to understand why the Catholic Church considers Josemaria Escriva to be a Saint after reading "Christ Is Passing By." What an insightful man he was! He writes in a clear and comprehensible fashion. This particular book is a great resource for those who want to scratch beneath the surface of some of the most significant events from the New Testament - events commemorated each year by the Catholic Church. It's also a great resource for bible study. It can and should be read over and over again. Bottom line: "Christ Is Passing By" has enhanced my personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

A challenge to your heart and soul...
11 Dec 2004
Format:Paperback
This collection of homilies is one of the first books I read by St. Josemaria Escriva. While remaining optimistic, the Saint penetrates the spiritual malaise that has overcome our Western society and calls us rekindle our enthusiasm for Jesus Christ. Yet the author is in no way condescending or preachy in his style. Rather, he is passionate.
I recommend this book to anyone who has been overcome by the "spiritual blahs" and is looking for something solid to inspire them to greater Catholic action.

Devotion in the fullest sense of the word!
30 Nov 2006
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I was new to the author, having never read his thoughts or even heard of him until recently. I am a mystical charismatic, who is bent towards philosophy, and have been exposed only minimally to catholic devotional writers. I have been enriched tremendously by "Christ is Passing By." The practical holiness, and the vision of a life captured by a desire to love God and others fully is contagious. The book follows the lectionary year. The teaching is first rate in most cases, and the spirit is all God centered. I thank God for this book.
