Lessons From the School of Suffering: A Young Priest With Cancer Teaches Us How to Live
...the legacy of Fr. Jim who, by carrying the cross of his cancer, sowed the seeds of faith... --The Catholic Standard Times, September 12, 2002I couldn't put down Jim Willig's book. Jim has been a fine priest all his life, but this book is his greatest sermon. He brought us through his suffering into the heart of Jesus and in that journey, whether we suffer from cancer or not, we have all become his parishioners. He has taught us to join hands on the way to Emmaus and listen, because the Lord is with us. --Fr. Damien, Abbot, Abbey of GethsemaniIn this book Father Jim Willig proves himself an adept learner and a skilled teacher. He offers lessons that everyone subject to suffering will study and learn with profit. --Archbishop Daniel E. Pilarczyk, Archdiocese of CincinnatiI couldn't put down Jim Willig's book.
