Gerry Straub was a successful Hollywood producer when he found himself alone inside a Franciscan church in Assisi. The avowed atheist had little inkling of the radical turn his life was about to take as he began a journey of conversion that would carry him from the heights of career success to the poorest places on earth. His spiritual guide would be a medieval saint with a powerful, yet sublimely simple message for a contemporary world.Straub s dramatic story is a modernday pilgrimage into the prayerful heart of St. Francis of Assisi. The initial jolt of selfdiscovery Francis was chasing Lady Poverty, while I was chasing Brother BMW gave way to the gradual realization that conversion is a slow, gracefilled process, filled with ups and downs of everyday life. Winding his own spiritual and physical journey along Francis path, Straub discovers firsthand what it might have meant for Francis to live among the homeless, to encounter lepers, and to spend hours in contemplative prayer. His story encourages each of us to look inward and to personally discover how the spirituality that inspired Pope Francis can shape our own spiritual journey. An inspiring, lifechanging read.
