Synopsis

This book is a collection of the most memorable and universally themed articles from Father Knott's weekly column, An Encouraging Word, which began appearing in his diocesan newspaper, The Record, in 2002. His goal was to be a voice of God's affirmation and encouragement for ordinary people going about their daily lives. This is a book of "spiritual reading" that deals with such topics as hope, courage, forgiveness, gratitude, holiness, fear, trust and more. There are nearly 80 articles gathered in this book which also includes a collection of nearly 200 thought-provoking quotes Father Knott cited throughout his articles over the past eleven years."Your articles in The Record are conversation pieces among friends at many dinner tables. You give us hope for the future."– B.T. "I want to say 'thank you.' Your columns continue to be inspiring, thought provoking and applicable to everyday living." – J.L.
