Live Jesus with St Francis de Sales and St John Bosco
Eunan McDonnell SDB
Within the Salesian tradition, the mysticism of St John Bosco can be summed up in St Francis de sales' dictum: live Jesus or Jesus live in us. Using his profound knowledge of Francis de Sales alongside his lived experience as a Salesian of Don Bosco, Fr Eunan has created a spiritual tapestry of breadth and beauty.

How did St Francis de Sales manage to overcome the overbearing influence of his father? How did he manage to hold the balance between obedience to his father and obedience to God? What about St John Bosco? How did he manage to live with the wound of being left fatherless at the age of two? How did the acrimony with his stepbrother become part of God's plan for him to shelter the homeless? Every saint has their issues, and so do we! A timely pastoral and accessible book.
