About the book

The life and spiritual teachings of the Catholic Church's greatest classical theologian as seen through the eyes of a contemporary theologian. A promising young theologian examines the life and work of Catholicism's premier scholar and discovers a saint deeply in love with Jesus Christ. He shares with the reader not only the deep spirituality within Aquinas's theological writings but also Aquinas's little-known spiritual writings on prayer, and much more. Throughout, he applies these teachings to our daily lives.
