How can you imitate Jesus if you don't know Jesus? In fact, how can you truly share any experience with someone else if you haven't really lived it yourself? How? So, again I ask, how can you imitate Jesus of you don't know Jesus? When he returned to join our heavenly Father, Jesus left us with the gift of the Holy Spirit. In turn, the Holy Spirit provides us with seven specific gifts. They all can lead us to a closer relationship with Jesus, and our fellow humans. By using both St. Thomas Aquinas and Pope Francis as our guides, this book is designed to awaken and deepen an interest in the sacred scriptures for a deepening of the spiritual life through study, reflection and prayer, thus leading you to a Joy-Filled Life of health, happiness, love and unity based on the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit.
