For those seeking deeper Christian spirituality.

"Wisdom from Franciscan Italy" guides your faith journey.

You’ll find love and commitment in your spiritual life.

Discover the journey of faith and love in "Wisdom from Franciscan Italy," where David Torkington explores the spiritual insights of St Francis and their impact on two devoted pilgrims.

David Torkington tells the story of a small group of secular Franciscans on pilgrimage in Franciscan Italy led by the hermit Peter Calvay. The book shows how the essence of Christian spirituality is restored by Francis and details the implications of the revelation of the Primacy of Love received by Francis moments before he received the Stigmata. It then explains how this is the starting point for St Bonaventure's spirituality and John Duns Scotus' Mystical Theology of love. This profound theology is detailed with consummate clarity and made practical in the lives of two of the pilgrims who commit themselves to each other for life.
