Davidson Fri, 01 Feb 2013 23:02:33 +0000 http://www.firstthings.com/blogs/firstthoughts/?p=56129#comment-89019 I read “With God in Russia” many years ago. I was very impressed with it. I just read “He Leadeth me”. You must follow God’s will to have peace and joy. This learned process is greatly shown in the 2nd book. I would urge all to read the 2nd book of his 23 years in Russia and in Siberia. You will not be disappointed.

Glad it will be available again.

Lewis wrote in The Four Loves: “But, for a Christian, there are, strictly speaking, no chances. A secret Master of Ceremonies has been at work. . ..”

A few days ago I just finished writing an article about Fr. Walter Ciszek which I hope will be published.
I like to think that it was not a coincidence!

A beautiful testamony from Tim Kelleher. Thanks for the heads up!
