Saint John Paul The Great: His Five Loves (2014) - Plot & Excerpts
Freedom cannot be understood as a license to do absolutely anything: it means a gift of self. Even more: it means an interior discipline of the gift.It is not enough to be free from external constraints; one must also be free from internal constraints that limit one's ability to choose the good. If a person is enslaved by the vices of lust or egoism, he is not free to love. Therefore, one's freedom is best measured by his or her capacity to love.-Chapter 7. Young People, Page 100 - Amazing, St. John Paul the Great, an inspiration for all for all time! Even before I was Catholic, I felt drawn to him, but now that I've been in the Church for almost 20 years, I'm blown away by his example of love and sacrifice. While the book jumps around a bit (at least to me it did) I learned so much that I didn't know (such as all the other assassination attempts and miracles) and a great introduction to Theology of the Body.
