What is the true measure of a holy life? Is it found in the clamor of the world or in the quiet solitude of the soul?

For Brother Giles, a humble companion of St. Francis of Assisi, the answer was found on the open road and in the lifelong pursuit of humility. His powerful Golden Sayings offer simple yet profound guidance for overcoming the spiritual struggles of both the medieval world and modern life.

This modern adaptation reimagines his inspiring travels through a compelling narrative, weaving his essential teachings into a journey toward faith, honest work, simple obedience, and inner peace. It invites readers to confront pride and doubt and discover the Divine in everyday life.

Can his map become yours?

A beautiful fusion of narrative and contemplative devotion, this book is perfect for readers of Thomas Merton’s spiritual classics or the profound insight of Henri Nouwen.
