Every saint and renowned spiritual director through the ages has said the same thing: if we desire to become saints, we must spend time daily in meditation. With this book, Fr. John Bartunek has created an extensive, Christ-centered resource to serve as your daily meditation companion. The Better Part offers a practical explanation of Christian meditation (along with a cheat-sheet!) as well as material to draw from during your meditations, including a Bible study on the Gospels, a survey of saints’ writings, and a handy guide to prayer. 

As you learn to read, meditate upon, absorb, and apply the Gospels to your life, you’ll also find ways to personalize your times of prayer, allowing you to follow the Holy Spirit’s lead along the path of holiness. Open these pages to discover the methods of meditation that best suit you, develop your friendship with Christ, and experience the true Christian joy of a deep, fruitful life of prayer.

Q&A

is there a new editions coming out of this series
Thank you for your questions. New editions have been released to compliment and supplement the first publication, including: Four-Volume Set: This is a major update where the single volume was broken down into four separate paperback books, one for each Gospel (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John). The larger text and increased "footprint" of the books make them easier to read. The smaller, individual volumes are also more portable. Single Volume Paperback: The original single-volume format is also available and has gone into multiple printings. This version is a comprehensive, all-in-one resource, although the print is noted as being smaller compared to the multi-volume set. Digital Editions: The book is available in e-book formats
