About the author
Ken Untener
74 books11 followersKenneth Edward Untener (August 3, 1937 – March 27, 2004) was a Roman Catholic bishop, serving the Diocese of Saginaw from 1980 until his death.
In 1999, Bishop Ken Untener of the Catholic Diocese of Saginaw decided to create a Little Black Book, which would use the prayer tradition of Lectio Divina to help people pray the Passion of Our Lord. Besides an English version of the book, there was also a Spanish edition, and a children’s book (Little Purple Book).
Although Bishop Untener died in 2004, he remains the inspiration for the Little Books. His Little Books staff continue to produce Little Books each year for the Advent/Christmas, Lent and Easter seasons, based on Bishop Untener’s writings. They are also producing four Stewardship books in light of the four Gospels.

The 50 days of the Easter season has ended with the celebration of Pentecost (which means 50). The journey was mad that much more meaningful because of this little book.
From the introduction:
"This Little White Book is meant to help you enjoy six minutes a day in prayer during these next 50 days of the Easter season. The key is the right-hand page. On that page each day (except Sundays) we’ll walk through the Sunday Gospels of Cycle C (this year’s liturgical cycle). On Sundays, and periodically throughout the week, we’ll focus on the sacrament of confirmation and on the Holy Spirit. The left-hand page is like a buffet table with information about the Easter season, or various traditions and customs, or the saint whose feast is celebrated on that particular day."

This year's Little White Book had some helpful insights on the Easter season's gospels with timely fun facts, but is a bit on the light side. (I guess you shouldn't expect anything too profound from an admittedly "little" book promising reflections to be under six minutes, so I can't blame false advertising.)

Good resource to maintain focus between Easter and Pentecost.

Great as always
These books keep me focused during the seasons. I’ve been reading them for years & can no longer imagine a Lenten/Easter or Adent/ Christmas searon without them.

This was actually the 2021 edition and technically ends in three days, but I'm posting now ... just because.
