Chain Furnace is a searing book. "Reading and meditating on what is said in the book can lead many souls close to the furnace of God's love and stir up in their hearts a passion for the pursuit of holiness and apostolic work." - Bishop Alvarro

"How can I refuse to put your soul of pure gold into a chain furnace, and let fire and hammers cast it, until the nuggets are transformed into jewels--glory, to my God, to your God?"- ─St . Josemaría

Like The Way and F urrow , it gives you practical and pointed material for meditation that will help you take your spiritual responsibilities more seri ously and move ever closer to the all-consuming forge of God's love.
