Book Description

Discover who you really are

Long years of prayer and contemplation disclosed to a holy Trappist monk many long-forgotten secrets about God and man — surprising secrets that reveal to you who God is . . . and who you are in His sight.

In spellbinding, uplifting detail filled with holy fire, Trappist Father M. Raymond shows that the reality of who you are in Christ is much greater than you think. Indeed, the spiritual realities that Father Raymond unveils are beyond the wildest dreams of most believers. He reveals how Almighty God actually needs you, how you can live your life in the fullness of God’s freedom, and how — no matter what — you can even stand in the world as straight as Christ Himself. Father Raymond also gives you the keys to unlock the mysteries of pain and of success and failure. In a startling way, he even discloses the mysteries of the future itself.

These are just a few of the many spiritual secrets revealed here — secrets that, understood rightly, are staggering in their implications for you and for your spiritual development. Father Raymond’s electrifying message will revolutionize your view of yourself and of the meaning of the events of your daily life; it will fill your soul with a new sense of your own dignity in Christ, and it will fire you with delightful excitement for the things of God. Absorb the wisdom of these spiritual secrets, and you’ll soon develop a transcendent view of yourself and of mankind that, if widely accepted, will heal the world’s wounds. Father Raymond’s refreshing view of God will set your soul — and the world around you — aflame with the fire of the Holy Spirit!

Discover who you really are as you learn these secrets, including the Church’s “priceless gem of literature and philosophy” — found in a place that will surprise you; how you can know yourself intimately, and by doing so, know God better; the monstrous heresy believed by millions of those who consider themselves faithful Catholics — are you one of them?; the secret of being able to survive the strongest anti-Christian onslaughts of our age; life’s most exciting truth — is it animating you today? Do you even know what it is?; the height and depth and breadth of your God-given vocation: do you really know it?; how you can know that your soul is immortal (and prove it to the most hardened atheist!); five forgotten facts about your identity as a Christian — revealed here in their breathtaking fullness; why God seemingly demands the impossible when He calls us to “be perfect”; why God must have not just first place in your life, but the only place — and how this will free you up to love more abundantly; the only real spiritual problem you have — and how you can solve it, once and for all; are you taking for granted the most startling and mysterious thing on earth? Find out here!; two words that should be as important to you as your heartbeat. Do you know them?; much more that Father Raymond will show you about the great value of your true self!

5.0 out of 5 stars WONDERFUL AND SOOTHING TRUTH ., July 16, 2004
This review is from: Spiritual Secrets of a Trappist Monk: The Truth of Who You Are and What God Calls You to Be (Paperback)
This book is very deep in giving yourself all for Christ and to the light of the world not their judge. I was deeply moved over and over and I pick the book up to get advice when I really need the advice for further review.

I really admire this book and love it. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK FOR SEMINARIANS. If you are a seminarian this book will only inspire you even further for the Love of His people.

This review is from: Spiritual Secrets of a Trappist Monk: The Truth of Who You Are and What God Calls You to Be (Paperback)
If I had only read this book in my youth, I would not of spent the next forty years looking for who and what I am. If you really want that answer, and really want to know who and what God is, and your relationship to Him, then you must read this book. This book is powered by the Holy Spirit!

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting work of 1957 prev entitled "YOU", August 26, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Spiritual Secrets of a Trappist Monk: The Truth of Who You Are and What God Calls You to Be (Paperback)
The author, a former Trappist monk elaborates his knowledge of "The Mystical Body of Christ" and essentially tries to deepen the spiritual faith of the reader by showing how the Most Holy Trinity (from all eternity) knew everything that would happen to you (defects,virtues,warts and all) in order for you to be granted (via baptism and confirmation) membership in the Mystical Body of Christ. This is a work from the 1950s and the author is speaking to a largely Christian, Catholic and conservative audience in this work. However, it is easy-to-follow and the author makes use of skillful transitions in his writing to build up and elevate/deepen the faith of the reader through examples of the Mystical Body of Christ in scriptures and commentaries on this topic (Pius XII in Mystici Corporis) by religious men in his (1950s) present day. I strongly recommend this work for those who are trying to deepen and solidfy their traditional Roman Catholic Christian spiritual faith in the Divine Providence.
