I’m currently reading Fr. Thaddeus Lancton’s Stepping On The Serpent. Anyone here ever read it?

Father belongs to the Marian priests at the Divine Mercy Shrine.Havent read it or heard of it, but I will sure check it out. One thing interesting about your current read you would share ? Right now I am reading “As Bread That Is Broken” by Peter G. van Breemen, SJ
Peace be with you
I think I read that book at least thirty times in my life. The first time was in 1973. Almost know the book by heart. I love that book.The Seven Storey Mountain by Thomas Merton
I find myself drawn to his writings lately as well. He must have suffered a lot. I’m not talking about physical suffering, but suffered just being himself with the past he had. We often forget that these men and women struggled like we do and weren’t born saints. Their sufferings well borne made them so.I’m reading St. Augustine’s Anti-Pelagian writings right now. I also just got a book containing some of his sermons. He’s a saint for our days.
This precious volume is my constant companion. Dare I say, sometimes I think I have a more profound attachment to this little book than to Scripture! I think it is because of the parts where Christ speaks directly to the reader. It is really like you are having a one-on-one conversation with Him.The Imitation of Christ by Thomas á Kempis. The Baronius edition which is the Bishop Challoner translation.
