Brother Gabriel, you do not know the extent to which our Lord Jesus is using you to touch souls. I am a 22 year old confirmed Catholic from Nigeria, but no sermon from any priest I've heard touches my soul, warns me and reassures me on the hope of my salvation than the words of Jesus through Our Mother Mary that come out from your lips in your videos. My seemingly endless cycle of lukewarmness and sinful habits are always turned around when I watch your videos. I hold back tears at the realization of my lack of effort to escape sin when I watch your talks. Thank you for allowing yourself to be used by Our Blessed Virgin Mary. Through Her intercession I will meet you face to face in heaven.
I bought In Sinu Jesu last summer, my priest took my copy and I bought 4 more, one for me, two for seminarians and one more for my priest to give away! It really impacted my priest and even began to quote from it in daily Mass! As a scrupulous soul I have to be careful of what I read which makes buying books hard! I have a few on your list and then a whole lot more. Thank you for these videos! I wish my husband and I could find friends like you in our parish! You are like a spiritual warrior that really encourages us to fight for yet another day!
Currently I am reading Dairy of St.Faustina. it's great book with many spiritual insights.
Introduction to the Devout Life by St Francis de Sales. My conversion from Atheist to Roman Catholic was caused by the Holy Spirit, Intercessory Prayer, and my own reading of 3 books: The Bible, Lives of the Saints, and Introduction to the Devout Life.
I LOVE In Sinu Jesu! My priest talks about it all the time
An excellent book that I read to prepare for Marian consecration, is "33 Days to Morning Glory" by Fr. Michael Gaitley.
Gabriel, if you loved "In Sinu Jesu" you would love "He and I", in private revelation Jesus speaks about His tender and merciful love just like in "In Sinu Jesu". It has completely pierced open my heart as He leads us towards "at-onement" (as He says) with Him and complete abandonment to His merciful love.
"The Life of Christ', by Fulton Sheen.
Thank so much, Gabriel. One of the reasons many Catholics are lukewarm or even cold is because they never read spiritual books written by other Catholics, starting with the Catholic catechism, Catholic prayers books and Catholic Bible. I read and I am very inspired this way. I highly recommend reading.
Here are my best spiritual books:
Thank you for the video. It's Colton, I met you over my Christmas break at St. Theresa's and you gave me the scapular at First Friday. So happy you posted a video especially on spiritual reading. Cardinal Sarah's The Power of Silence is a very powerful and profound book. I personally enjoy spiritual autobiographies such as St. Augustine's Confessions and Blessed Cardinal Newman's Apologia Pro Sua Vita. Also anything by Fulton Sheen!!
Uniformity with God’s Will by St Alphonsus Ligouri is my favorite. It’s only 30 pages, but it really changed the way approach life. I read it multiple times a year.
Hi..im from Shillong Meghalaya..n im also a catholic.. I'm very excited watching this video
Sir! I must say that you are a living saint! I am so amazed and excited that I got most of these books in pdf from the description since I do not have the means to make online purchases.
My favourite book is The Life of Mary as seen by Mystics compiled by Raphael Brown. You will fall in love with Mary as you read this.
Not got much time these days since I try to do as much divine office as poss (not much) and have started to read the Bible in a year following Dr Taylor Marshall's scheme. I've been reading Ven. Fulton Sheen's excellent "Life of Christ" for nearly a year now!!!😱 and before that a biography on Cardinal Newman. I used to read a lot of spiritual books years ago, especially on St Francis. The Imitation of Christ had a big impression on me.
Deer Bro, I have watched all your video, listening this about mother mary, I become more spiritual and loving jesus more and more. Thanks for your video about holy mass, eucharistic, lost catholic treasure. Wow amazing..
I clicked so fast! love your videos!
Thank you for this Gabi! I will try and buy In Sinu Jesu as soon as possible. Your videos are such a blessing. My husband and I have been enrolled into the Brown Scapular and have started praying 4 Rosaries everyday thanks to your encouragement. We have been graced with so many blessings ever since. My husband even started a rosary club in his school where he prays the Rosary daily with his students. One of his students wants to become a priest and the Rosary club is doing wonders for his soul. God bless you Gabi!
I am reading and loving the Life of the Blessed Virgin Mary by blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich. It us wonderful to see how God planned everything and He made His children participate in His plans... when He could have easily done everything Himself. But He shows His love in making us part of it
