VOLUME THREE: CALLED TO LIVE THE DYNAMIC POWER OF THE GOSPEL Commentary of the Rule of the Secular Franciscan Order By Fr. Philip Marquard, OFM
"If we want to follow St. Francis, we must understand two concepts of his life: doing penance and living according to the form of the Gospel. It is these two central concepts that we must see in our Rule and strive to make them basic in our daily living. Living according to the form of the Gospel became, through Francis, a principle of formation as well as the first and highest duty of the whole Franciscan movement." ...Fr. Marquard, OFM , Published by Franciscan Press in 1997, 103 pages, quality paper back. (Limited edition) (Order FP90977 Price $13.95) |
