Come and You Will See!: St. John's Course in Contemplation
reviewed on + 331 more book reviews


Whether we realize it or not, we are all of us seeking the infinite. "Our hearts are restless till they rest in Thee," was the way St. Augustine put it. We want to know God and to be known and loved by Him. We want to know "where He lives," where He's coming from, what He expects of us. And His reply: "Come and see." In these two commands we find the key to St. John's course in contemplation which is elaborated on so skillfully in this intriguing little book. Jesus provides the answer - indeed, He is the answer - to all the longings of our human heart: "Come and you will see."
