A spiritual classic.,

This review is from: Making Life a Prayer : Selected Writings of John Cassian (Upper Room Spiritual Classics. Series I) (Perfect Paperback)
John Cassian lived in the time of the desert fathers. His writings are a great prize. This small book is selections of his work, and so
grants entry to a kind of life so long ago, but which can be enjoyed today should we choose to do so. Buy two copies, one for you and one for a good friend.
