Produktbeschreibung
For many years, the spiritual exercises of St. Ignatius Loyola and the thirty-day retreat have been used in seminaries as a rule to develop strong, courageous Priests. Father Jim Douglas Norris completed this training before going to Japan in the aftermath of horrific nuclear bombs at the end of World War II. Author Mark Baird wants readers to know with confidence that his new book, Father Jim Douglas Norris's Notebooks, is a faithful transcription of the words of Father Jim. Prioritizing fidelity over style and diction, Father Jim Douglas Norris's Notebooks is intended to be read and digested meditatively. Father Jim Douglas Norris's Notebooks also includes the Biblical texts Father Jim used in his diary as well as corresponding references from St. Ignatius Exercises to help readers in their meditations.
Autorenporträt
Baird has been fortunate to study under great mentors over the decades, helping him develop his theological insights into the Catholic faith. His publishing journey has been remarkably successful, with his first book becoming a bestseller. He was educated in Rotorua at Western heights high school. The real wisdom was learned at a a Cistercian monastery in New Zealand: at the Good Shepherd College in Auckland, and in the Parish of Rotorua. Baird believes that education is a journey of self-discovery, and that each person carries a unique mindset to explore and deepen their knowledge to understand the faith, in pursuit of life's true meaning. His books are written to support each individual's personal discovery of faith-to grow in wisdom and understanding, and to uncover the deeper purpose that makes life worth living.
