There is not too much to say about the book, "About St. John Paul II: From Those Who Knew Him," by Wlodzimierz Redzioch, other than how interesting it is to hear first-hand accounts from people who lived and knew John Paul so well. I found it inspiring and gave me an even greater respect for John Paul II.
Do you think that holiness is for other people? Many of us think of it as something that the priest or deacon is supposed to be, but not us. Or we think of holiness as some sort of unattainable perfection. Both of which are wrong.
Peter Kreeft has many good books, but "How To Be Holy," reminds us that everybody is called to holiness and to be a saint. In very practical terms, he talks about what that means and how it can be achieved.
John Paul the Great: His Five Great Loves, by Jason Everet
If you like St. John Paul II this book is amazing. It is also a great book if you want to learn more about him. John Paul is my favorite saint and learning more about his life through his five loves is inspiring. In particular, the sections on his love of prayer and of Mary left me wanting to pray more. His connection to God showed throughout his pontificate. -- Fr. Aaron Laskiewicz
