When Shia LaBeouf first met the Capuchin friars, he was “at the last stop on the train.” But they invited him into a world of laughter, meals, and prayer. They asked nothing of him. They simply wanted his good.
Upon reflection, Shia realized “God was using my ego to draw me to him and away from worldly desires.” The next step was learning to pray.
About the Book:
This colorful memoir offers a rare, up-close glimpse of the life and personality of St. Pio of Pietrelcina, the beloved Italian monk who was blessed with extraordinary gifts.
The late Fr. Amorth--well-known as an exorcist --enjoyed over two decades of a close friendship with the holy, quirky Padre Pio, whom he considered his spiritual father. Adding his own personal experience to a foundation of biographical research, Amorth gives an entertaining and illuminating account of perhaps one of the best-known saints of the twentieth century.
In this book, we span from Padre Pio's childhood--where he cured himself of a disease by wolfing down all his mother's fried bell peppers--to his miracle-filled priesthood, to his Italian gift for mimicry, humor, and storytelling.
Rather than a plaster image of a saint, this book is a portrait of a fully human kind of holiness, proof that even the most astonishing graces can be lived out with simplicity and joy.
