Read by Frank Castiglione The Way is St. Josemaria’s spiritual classic with points for meditation and prayer. St. Josemaria Escrivá writes: “Read these counsels slowly. Pause to meditate on these thoughts. They are things that I whisper in your ear confiding them as a friend, as a brother, as a father. And they are being heard by God. I won’t tell you anything new. I will only stir your memory, so that some thought will arise and strike you; and so you will better your life and set out along ways of prayer and of Love. And in the end you will be a more worthy soul.”

Read by Frank Castiglione, Furrow is another of St. Josemaria’s spiritual classics with points for meditation and prayer. The author writes: My reader and friend, let me help your soul contemplate the virtues of man, for grace works upon nature. But do not forget that these considerations of mine, though they may seem very human to you, must be priestly as well, since I have written them for you and for myself—and I have put them into practice too—before God. I ask Our Lord that these pages may be of use for us. May we profit by them and be moved by them so that in our lives our deeds may leave behind a deep and fertile furrow.
