Catholic Thought discussion

Would anyone like to have a group read during Lent? If so, we would be choosing a free ebook or one that costs $1.99 or less. Post your opinions in this thread.

I will nominate St. Francis de Sales's Treatis on the Love of God. It can be read on some free websites.

I will second that nomination!

I nominate "Jesus Of Nazareth: HOLY WEEK; from the entrance into Jerusalem to the Resurrection." for Lent 2017.

Nominations for this group read should be for a free ebook or one that costs $1.99 or less. However, since only two books have been nominated, both of the above mentioned books will be up vote on the poll. The voting poll will be posted for one week and will close on the evening of February 27th.

Sorry about that. I missed that post about a nominee having to be a free E-Book or one under $1.99.

No problem Joseph! ;-)

You can read St. Francis’ “Treatise” for free on an Android device in google.books. There are several translations. The one by H. L. Sidney Lear ( which is recorded at librivox) is at: https://books.google.com/books?id=ezk...

Since I already own Jesus of Nazareth, Part Two: Holy Week: From the Entrance into Jerusalem to the Resurrection by Pope Benedict XVI would it be okay to go with that instead ?

I apologize for the late response. We will not be discussing Part Two: Holy Week at this time, but hopefully we can in the future.

Okay. That's no problem. I'll go with the chosen selection, Treatise on the Love of God by Francis de Sales
