909 Days that Changed the World

Product Review (submitted on February 6, 2015):

As a Catholic priest who is well acquainted with many books about the life of Christ, I can honestly say that this book by Robert J. Dunne lies at the top of the list of those that I have benefited from. After hearing me deliver a homily, people often tell me that I am a wonderful "story teller." I have to say that I think that Mr. Dunne is a better story teller than people say that I am. Now, before preparing a homily about some event in Our Blessed Lord's life, I go to Mr. Dunne's book to see how HE describes it. More importantly, I refer to this book to help me in my prayer life. When I was in the Seminary we were urged to spend time each day in, what we call, "spiritual reading." This book is perfect for fulfilling that role. The nice part of it all is that it is not only inspirational and instructive but also "entertaining" (if I may use that word!): it is a pleasure and a joy to read. Mr. Dunne should be commended for achieving a goal which more than a few "spiritual" writers fail to achieve. I would certainly recommend this book to everyone who wants to get to know Jesus better and who wants to be touched by the life he led for the last 909 days of his ministry.
