01-001 The Way

The way is the crystallization of the spiritual life and experience of Saint Josemaria, the founder of Opus Dei. This modern classic, his first, sold 3.5 million copies and was translated into 37 languages. The intention is to inspire personal prayer and make prayer more approachable. In these pages, the Holy Spirit of God resounds. You have to meditate on every word and search for its meaning. The intermittent sentences in the book are for you to connect them in succession through actions. Don't shrink back. Your life consists in turning pain into sweetness. Because you are a disciple of the Master of Christ!

The Way is St Josemaría's spiritually rich collection of points for meditation and prayer. It is born out of deep Christian experience and aims at encouraging people to love God and live for Him. Says St Josemaría: The 999 points which make up The Way were written with years to see Christ, the light of the world. Anyone who reads it with the same years will not have opened this book in vain.
