Murray Bodo, who has earned the right to speak about both of them," writes noted author Richard Rohr, O.F.M., in the foreword. <p/> Following up on <i>Francis: The Journey and the Dream</i>, Murray Bodo offers a maturing of his own friar's spirituality in this dramatic storytelling of Francis' close connection and relationship with Jesus. Here we see a multi-dimensional, yet internal Francis as the ultimate disciple of Jesus: Francis as sufferer, in the wilderness, as itinerant, as misunderstood, in prayer, as teacher, as lover and protector of the poor, in authority while subject to God's authority, in community, as healer, as wounded. <p/><b>The audio edition of this book can be downloaded via Audible.</b><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>MURRAY BODO, O.F.M., is a Franciscan priest and member of the Franciscan Academy.
