Monastery without Walls ~ Daily Life in the Silence  Order on Amazon

This book speaks to the mystic within us. It affirms our place in the sacred silence of solitude and inner reflection, showing how even everyday life is filled with opportunities to live fully in the world - as if it were a holy monastery. Here we learn to live, within the limits, as well as the spirit of everyday life and how to appreciate our most human self as the path to explore the divine. 

Here we encounter a world that is clearly available to us, a world filled with nothing less than the gift of sacred silence within the monastery without walls.

Simple Peace ~ The Inner Life of St Francis of Assisi  Order on Amazon

is a book about the inner life of St Francis. More than a story of the life of Francis, this book gives the inner life and development of one of the world's most famous Saints.  It includes his struggles with his own humanness, his passion for living a life for his soul and his compassion for the marginalized people of society.

My Little Flowers ~ Reflections of Mary  Order on Amazon

Love has no introduction. Love appears. Love just is. And despite our attempts to manage Her, She wins. If we withdraw, if we surrender, if we call out of if we are silent, She is, as we are prepared to know Her. Ordinary or Holy, everywhere we turn love faces us. Again and again She is here.

The Love Letters ~ Saint Francis and Saint Clare  Order on Amazon

The essence of the mystic's path is revealed in this work of historical fiction. Perfect as a compliment to a daily practice of meditation or prayer, The Love Letters, uncovers the mystical love shared by Saint Francis & Saint Clare.  All traditions can enjoy the insight & spiritual truths they found, walking the path of love, humility and grace. In the silence of our hearts, in giving to those in need, Saint Francis, Saint Clare, and Pope Francis offer a new vision for us all to become instruments of true peace and joy.
