    Francis: The Journey and the Dream depicted a Francis who 'sang' to me. I felt that I had found a teacher to lead me home. I had no idea where theis was going to lead but I was ready to follow. --John Michael Talbot

    With a poet's pen and a dreamer's imagination, Bodo inspires many to follow Francis on the journey of gospel living. --    Daniel P. Horan, O.F.M., author of Dating God: Live and Love in the Way of St. Francis

    Here is a St. Francis who knew doubt, fear, loneliness, pain, discouragement as well as enthusiasm for life and his brothers, wonder, joy, and gratitude for people and all creation. I return to this book many times to reflect and pray. --    Jeremy Harrington, O.F.M., Guardian and Commissary of the Franciscan Monastery of the Holy Land.
