Overview
Thomas Aquinas is widely considered the greatest and most influential of Catholic theologians. Yet too often his insights into the nature of God and the meaning of life are seen as somehow cold, impersonal, and divorced from spirituality. In this award-winning book, Robert Barron shows how Aquinas's profound understanding of the Christian mystical life animates and helps explain his writings on Jesus Christ, creation, God's "strange" nature, and the human call to ecstasy.Synopsis
Catholic Press Award Winner! An Italian priest of the 13th century, Aquinas is considered by many Roman Catholics to be the greatest theologian through the ages. He is less known as a deeply inspiring saint and spiritual master. Renowned Catholic theologian, international speaker, and author, Fr. Robert Barron, offers us one of the finest introductions to this hard-to-study, major figure of Western history. A classic for everyone interested in Catholic faith and thought.
