by Fr. John Speekman

This book is a collection of Fr. Speekman’s thoughts and reflections from his time as a hospital chaplain and parish priest.  It gives readers an over-the-shoulder look at encounters in the life of a priest, where each interaction becomes a source of deeper reflection, even those moments that seem, at first glance, ordinary or routine.

Fr Speekman’s pithy recollections and personal insights not only reveal a quirky sense of humour and obvious love of people, but give readers a sense of his deep Catholic faith.  This engaging little book will entertain, challenge, invite, and console; and ultimately draw readers closer to the heart of Christ.
