Born to a wealthy family in Turin at the dawn of the 20th century, Pier Giorgio Frassati was good-looking, popular and athletic.  He spent much of his youth climbing the rugged Italian Alps, disappearing into the clouds for days at a time. He was quick with a joke or a prank and enjoyed a good time.  It seemed he was blessed with everything a young man could ask for. But he hungered for more. Despite coming from a family of such prestige, Pier Giorgio spent most days in the slums of Turin, visiting the poor and serving the sick. His love for Christ burned within him and brushed off on everyone he came into contact with – from lepers and orphans to college friends and political diplomats. He shared his Faith with kindness and charity, and defended it passionately against the evils of Fascism, even coming to blows with Mussolini’s thugs on numerous occasions. Pier Giorgio touched the lives of thousands, yet his high-society parents remained unmoved by the life he led as they frowned upon his religious practices and charitable work.  Reaching them would be his last challenge, his final mountain to climb. To the Heights is an unforgettable novel about Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati.  Dig deeper than the biographical facts and discover the heart of a charismatic young man whose soul blazes brightly and uniquely among the host of heaven.", "published_at":"2016-01-05T09:23:20", "created_at":"2015-07-22T10:11:28", "vendor":"TAN BOOKS\/ST.

We can’t fully understand why God gives us certain gifts, but as we walk with Christ, we can engage with this mystery and journey towards holiness.\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eWelcoming the Holy Spirit with Padre Pio\u003c\/i\u003e, Susan De Bartoli shares stories and wisdom from the life of this humble monk to show how we can use our unique spiritual gifts to love others and draw from the well of faith to encounter Christ in profound ways.\u003cbr\u003eFollowing the success of her Advent devotional, \u003ci\u003eWelcoming the Christ Child with Padre Pio\u003c\/i\u003e, Susan De Bartoli invites you to explore Padre Pio’s relationship with the third member of the Blessed Trinity, the Holy Spirit, who is the source of all spiritual gifts.\u003cbr\u003eThrough the stories of this simple Capuchin priest, you’ll discover what is possible for those who surrender themselves to the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit also graces some of us with special charisms—supernatural gifts such as healing, teaching, or intercessory abilities—intended to serve the Church. In this book, you’ll learn how to nurture these gifts, just as Padre Pio did, so that even your “ordinary“ spiritual gifts and charisms can bless others and deepen your own faith.\u003cbr\u003eEach chapter offers quotations from Padre Pio, a short story about the saint, prayer, and reflection questions that you can apply to your own life, such as:\u003cbr\u003e• What are my spiritual gifts and how have I seen them play out in my life already?\u003cbr\u003e• Am I consistently drinking from the well of faith?\u003cbr\u003e• What does the Lord want me to do with my life, and how can I use my spiritual gifts to serve the Church?\u003cbr\u003e• Am I willing to surrender even the good things in my life to glorify the Lord?\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eWelcoming the Holy Spirit with Padre Pio\u003c\/i\u003e is the perfect companion for those who are already drawn to Padre Pio’s spirituality or anyone yearning to strengthen their relationship with the Holy Spirit.
