Query: A book of hope and glory

Max Lucado is a very gifted spiritual writer; and this book was the first I read of his years ago. I bought this copy for a cousin who wanted to read something spiritual, but not dogmatic, for Lent. Lucado takes the events of Good Friday and Christ's earthly ministry and applies them to the every day challenges of our lives. Interspersed are lives of saints - both canonized and popularly accepted - that reflect the common fact that we are all challenged to live lives of truth and grace. He often brings me to tears with his comments and statements; but that's as it ought to be because his words touch our hearts and change them in so many positive and inspiring ways. If you have not read Max Lucado, you are missing something that ought NOT be missed.
