Luis M. Martinez, the former Archbishop of Mexico City, maintains that as the Spirit is God's supreme gift, so your devotion to Him should be profound and encompassing. In beautiful, practical terms, Martinez illuminates the difference the Spirit can make when He's given His proper place in your soul. This handbook explains how you should respond to the Spirit, how the Spirit helps you grow in virtue, and the characteristics of true love of the Spirit.

This book turned me to Archbishop Martinez (who was Conchita of Mexico's spiritual director--she a victim soul). His writings are beautiful and profound. This volume includes the three stages of sorrow, plus much on the interior life of the soul, role of contemplatives, and mystical marriage. We used it in a small group discussion, before my current more solitary state.
