This is a great book for Lent in my opinion. Jesus and St. John the Baptist were often mistaken for one another because of their monastic way of life and obedience to the Lord. This book begins with "facts" and I like the story first but it had it's value because some facts I did not know giving me a clearer understanding when I got to the story part.Some facts surprised me!I enjoyed this book because during this Lent we try to grow in Holiness and in reading the Life that St. John the Baptist led me want and desire to give more of an effort to grow more like him and Jesus during this Lenten season. St. John the Baptist "teaches" us how to get close to the Father; learning from his actions and solitude were inspiring!I like Wyatt's books because they are not lengthily yet they "provide so much information" and it is a joy to read and learn. It's a great service to me because of a busy life style I can continue to read about the Saints which keeps me more focused and on a better path! I totally recommend this book desire grow in the Lord, to learn obedience can be had by all of us!
