New Lenten Book by Father Paul Jerome Keller

Popular Dominican priest Paul Jerome Keller offers a new book to guide readers through Lent: A Lenten Journey with Jesus Christ and St. Thomas Aquinas.  
A Lenten JourneyFather Keller gives a short biography of St. Thomas Aquinas, a brief history of the Order of Preachers and St. Thomas Aquinas’s wisdom on prayer and Lent, in addition to the daily Gospel readings, reflections and prayers to guide the reader through this special season.

“The invitation to contemplate God comes to each one of us daily, in a multiplicity of ways. Yet, Lent is set aside by the Church as a privileged season. It is a time to open ourselves to the deeper workings of divine grace. God awaits our answer to his invitation, our assent, as we pour over these passage from St. Thomas Aquinas.” -- from A Lenten Journey with Jesus Christ and St. Thomas Aquinas

Father Keller was ordained to the priesthood in 1993. He acquired a Bachelor and Licentiate in Sacred Theology at the Pontifical Faculty of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, D.C., and a Doctorate with a specialization in sacramental theology at Sant’ Anselmo in Rome. He is currently an assistant professor of sacramental theology at Mount St. Mary’s of the West Seminary in Cincinnati. Father Keller has made appearances on Relevant Radio, Sirius Radio’s Catholic Channel, Vatican Radio, and Catholic Answers Live. He is also the author of 101 Questions & Answers on the Sacraments of Healing: Penance and Anointing.
