About this listen

From a pilgrimage through the streets of Assisi to contemplative walks on the beaches near his home, Bruce Epperly has pondered the questions of privilege, prayer, and social justice while walking with the teachings of Francis of Assisi. From his roots in reformation traditions, he has a deep understanding of the call Francis received to rebuild the church and the need for constant reformation not only in our personal lives but also in our society and in our religious institutions. He knows that change comes from within, from listening to the spirit of God as we engage in contemplative listening.

Critic reviews

“I have great respect for Dr. Bruce Epperly and, like millions of others, profound love for St. Francis. What a gift to have Bruce Epperly's reflections on this great saint whose example is needed now more than ever! (Brian D. McLaren, author of Faith After Doubt)

"A beautifully written account of a theologian's spiritual journey with the beloved saint. Each chapter moves us, step-by-step, a little closer to the heart of Francis, while offering a transforming vision of mystical activism for our time." (Patricia Adams Farmer, author of Beauty and Process Theology)

“Discover the face of Christ on this word-journey through Assisi with Bruce Epperly. He traverses the landscape, shares snapshots of his childhood in dialogue with the life and spiritual development of St. Francis, and offers offering spiritual practices that call us to greater reflection and activism.” (Rev. Dr. Charlene Zuill, Spiritual Life Coordinator Boston University School of Theology)

Life changing wisdom from Francis and Bruce

I have a deep affection for St Francis who is a spiritual guide to my life as I seek to follow Jesus. Epperly highlights key events in Francis' conversion process and applies them to contemporary life in the 21st century with applications to this challenging time of pandemic. For me this book is a helpful review of some of the important spiritual teaching and living examples of Francis' faithfulness. In addition, the author includes many helpful personal spiritual practices to integrate one's faith into one's living. I highly recommend this as one of the most helpful books on the way of living that St Francis embodied.
