"Many are well aware of St. Thomas Aquinas' intellectual prowess - his genius in metaphysics and supernatural theology - that pierced the depths of truth. However, few know about the spiritual life of this illustrious Doctor of the Church. This work, written by Msgr. Martin Grabman, a foremost authority on his life, is unique in its revelation of the sanctity and holiness of St. Thomas' priestly soul. Neither a purely devotional nor a strictly scientific treatment of the interior life of St. Thomas, this book combines the two to help you appreciate the character of the Angelic Doctor. In St. Thomas' own words, you will come to understand how and why he learned more from the feet of the Crucified than from the innumerable books he read. You will further be convinced that sanctity precedes science, and that life precedes knowledge, even in the scientific personality of Aquinas. In this gem, you will find insights into Aquinas' heart, brilliantly aglow with Divine love, through his works and the Acts of his Canonization Process. Msgr. Grabmann highlights three areas in the interior life of Aquinas: wisdom, charity, and peace. The soul of St. Thomas was ordered after the soul of Jesus Christ and his writings on intimacy with God flowed from his own experience of this communion. All St. Thomas' actions during his life were oriented toward Jesus Christ; St. Thomas asked God that he might think like Christ, love like Christ, and be at peace like Christ. St. Thomas spent his life in contemplative prayer, study, writing, and preaching. It is said that he began his writings with prayer and was often moved to tears. Through testimonies about the Angelic Doctor, you will learn about his untold mysticism and discover: The secret to develop fervent charity and attain spiritual delight; His self-sacrifice, kindness, and charity; His exemplary purity and temperance, and how he ordered his whole life toward God; The three-fold wisdom in which St. Thomas found the meaning and happiness of life; The two-fold way that helps us find truth; Why St. Thomas was called the Cherubim of the Eucharistic mystery. Revered as one of the greatest thinkers of all time, St. Thomas also possessed the faith of a child. You will be astounded by true stories of humility and patience that St. Thomas showed in instructing beginners in the spiritual life, along with his mercy and compassion toward others"--
