Discover the five great loves of St. John Paul II through remarkable unpublished stories on him from bishops, priests, students, Swiss Guards, and others. Mining through a mountain of papal resources, Jason Evert has uncovered these many gems, offering a treasure chest brimming with the jewels of the saint's life. After a brief overview of John Paul's life, Evert explores in depth his five great loves: Young People, Human Love, The Eucharist, Our Lady, The Cross. This work is intended to be catechetical, inspiring, and evangelical. By looking at what he loved and why, the goal is to help readers learn more about key aspects John Paul's life and teachings, including Theology of the Body, Divine Mercy, Total Consecration, Eucharistic adoration, and redemptive suffering.
The first half of this book is biographical, while the second half touches on Pope Saint John Paul the Great's five loves, according to author Jason Evert. These are: young people, the Blessed Sacrament, human love, the Virgin Mary, and the Cross. I've read it so many times and have given away copies to dozens of people. St. John Paul, pray for us!
