"This book provides selections from the work on a Spanish monk who lived during the Counter-Reformation. His main insight is how suffering and trials can bring the soul nearer to God. As such, he is a comfort to Christians who are struggling or in difficulty. His poems are absolutely beautiful, and his commentary on them is very insightful."
"Selected writings that include: The Ascent to Mount Carmel; The Dark Night of the Soul; The Spiritual Canticle; and the Living Flame of Love. Great introduction and translation of John of the Cross' writings. I should have read this book first before tackling Dark Night twice - would have found out that The Ascent is the first book to read then one has a better understanding of The Dark Night. John of the Cross tried to put into words the process of coming to know Christ and walk with Him daily & completely. Challenging reading as one thinks about how to go about developing spirituality in self and those seeking to shepherd. Not easy answers or 1, 2...steps to success."
