Honestly, this book is so beautifully written, I definitely was moved many times while reading. I've met Deacon Dave and had him spiritually direct me once at a retreat. His stories of what God has revealed to him makes me want to spend more time with Jesus. Everyone should definitely give this a read as it also provides scripture, discussion questions, and a prayer at the end of each chapter.

Humbling, awe-inspiring, spiritually moving, and soul-shaking. Every Catholic should read this - and every person wondering what the fuss over the Eucharist is all about.
A gift to have read Deacon Dave's experiences from the Divine.

There are a few errors in writing conventions and editing throughout, but it doesn't take away from the content or experience.

An amazing read and even more impactful for me as it's written from a member of my own diocese. This is a perfect book for someone already grounded in their faith and looking for something rekindle/grow the flame of enthusiasm for the Eucharist.
